This interface is not necessary but can be very useful for playing around with the clock, or debugging new version of the code. | This interface is not necessary but can be very useful for playing around with the clock, or debugging new version of the code. | ||
− | To use the serial interface you will need a cable, and perhaps a level shifter ( the Stepper Tester [[Stepper Motor Tester]] has a max232 level shifter, this circuit does not, you can get a level shifter as a seperate component or even built into a cable ). You will also need a serial terminal, generally a program for your PC. For information on a good terminal program see | + | To use the serial interface you will need a cable, and perhaps a level shifter ( the Stepper Tester [[Stepper Motor Tester]] has a max232 level shifter, this circuit does not, you can get a level shifter as a seperate component or even built into a cable ).

The clock should send debugging information about once a minute ( maybe ). It will also inform you of the changing of modes with the mode switch. | The clock should send debugging information about once a minute ( maybe ). It will also inform you of the changing of modes with the mode switch. |
