Arduino Project: Plotclock with a DS3231 Real Time Clock and an Arduino UNO.

Today we are going to build this impressive PlotClock. It Is an Arduino powered device that writes the time using a Whiteboard marker.

Want to learn to code?

thanks alot for making this vid .. im currently building the plotclock and couldnt find any assembly instructions anywhere ! thanks to you i can continue !

Just a note. In the video when you connect the Clock Module up to the Arduino shield, you mistakenly connect SDA and SCL to A4 and A5 signal on the shield. It needs to be connected to the SCL and SDA pins which are just to the right of the ones you connected to. Otherwise, the clock module will not properly initialize the chip.

If you had spent more effort on the project would you be able to refine the numbers looks? I have started the same project but use my 3d printer for parts. Thanks for you presentation.

I bought this kit . Sad that no clock was included. And had much problem with code errors and Arduino missing library problems.
Can a Uno board make time with no add on clock module, I don't know because most things written about Arduino do not make sense.

What is the battery for the DS3231 RTC? CR2032 or it needs a LIR2032?

[muhammadmaarouf]

what is the difference between DS1307 & DS 3231 RTC ??!

Can u put the comands here? I need them pliz

plz help me how to fix this error

[mdafroz]

can you make a cnc 3d printer with sparw parts but not from dvd please

[benaliahlemm]

please i need this project
. " how to make a simple Arduino based clock using an 7 SEG and a real time clock. "

[sekudha]

Are the 3d printed parts included?
Pls answer

[meowdred]

add 1 stepper motor and a 3d pen and you can make a 3d printer

[dzplayer]

i will try to make this with whatever materials i can get. except it won't use this code; i will try to code it myself and i will make it controllable with a joystick in all 8 directions. so i can draw on it myself :)

[briancalderon]

i had losed tthe program :( where can i found it' ? please!!

[briancalderon]

someone could tell me where can i download the plastic parts of the clock ?
