On previous TI calculators, you could set up and use a clock: TI-84, TI-89 HW2, TI-92+ HW2, TI-Voyage 200 and TI-89 Titanium.

When testing the oldest Nspire handheld prototype, the TI-Phoenix 1 (P1-EVT1), we got some proof that the TI-Nspire had the required circuit for a clock, as the created files got some dates:


But TI has never used it for that up to now, and those dates were quickly masked with the P1-EVT2 prototype Sad



In a previous news, Tangrs released the Clock program, which let you set up the clock and display it.


But you were loosing your clock at each reboot.



Levak from TI-Planet is about to release nClock, which was allready in development when we learned about Clock from Tangrs.

nClock lets you turn your TI-Nspire into a real clock. You can set the clock and display it.




But nClock features more than that. As you can see, it's hard to keep the Nspire in the above position. So nClock also has a 180°-rotated display mode! Grin




Moreover, nClock uses Ndless startup and hook features to save your clock setting. Meaning that your clock setting does survive a reboot! Grin Grin



But there's still more! nClock also uses Ndless hook feature to constantly display and refresh a small clock on your Nspire title bar. Grin Grin Grin








Bigger pictures available in the TI-Planet news:
http://tiplanet.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9076

nClock will be available for download as soon as the next Ndless build is available - as it needs some patches to be applied to Ndless and doesn't work with the current version.


Edit: nClock is now available from the TI-Planet news (note that you need the latest Ndless 3.1 build)

Weird. I fell asleep in my Web Design class and had a dream about having a clock on the title bar of my nspire. Then I come home and see this. Dreams do come true! O_O

Moreover, nClock uses Ndless startup and hook features to save your clock setting. Meaning that your clock setting does survive a reboot!
How does this work? I take it this is not using the RTC, since boot1/boot2 always reset it as far as I know and Ndless cannot prevent that. 900Cxxxx timers + spare SRAM?

Two things :
 - the RTC value is not reseted when the calc crashed (and still continue working even on the booting time). It resets only when you use the reset button.
 - nClock just stores the last saved RTC value and ask if the time is correct on boot. But most of the time, since the RTC is not reseted, it is useless

Nice!

Does it work with classic Nspires?

At first, the hook worked only on CX's an I was sad enought to leave the project ...
But by reverse engineering the hook I found that classic Nspire and CX Nspire use differents Battery checkers and my hook as actually in the battery check branch of CX.

Now I use differents hooks for classics and cx Nspire. Since I don't have them with me, I can't test if it works, but they actually work on emulator so I guess so =)

How frequently is it written to NAND? Writing it to frequently would wear it excessively.

When you launch nclock =)
It reads the config file where all the stuff needed is stored, as well as the backuped clock.
