/* Time Check Gets the time from Linux via Bridge then parses out hours, minutes and seconds using a YunShield/Yún. created 27 May 2013 modified 21 June 2013 By Tom Igoe This example code is in the public domain. http://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/TimeCheck */ #include Process date; // process used to get the date int hours, minutes, seconds; // for the results int lastSecond = -1; // need an impossible value for comparison void setup() { Bridge.begin(); // initialize Bridge SerialUSB.begin(9600); // initialize serial while (!Serial); // wait for Serial Monitor to open SerialUSB.println("Time Check"); // Title of sketch // run an initial date process.
