Hello,

I would like to set the RTC with an integer input value, that provides the webserver. But the RTC needs an BCD input. Do you knwo how I can cast a decimal integer to a BCD format?

Thanks

Hi,

the RTC_C module of the MSP430FR5994 supports also hexadecimal format. Thus you could use this mode in combination with the integer values from your server source.

Best regards

Peter

Hello,

I know, that I can alsoe choose the hexadecimal mode. But I want to set the RTC_C with decimal values. So it´s difficult to cast this value in Code Composer Studio.

Hi,

please check the User Experience code package for the MSP430F5438A Experimenter's Board. There is a source file named "clock.c". This contains all kind of decoding functions for an RTC module. There might me slight differences on the RTC control register side, but the principle should work for you.

Best regards

Peter
