Dear forum,

Is it possible to read the time from the connected computer?
If yes, how do I do this?
I use version 2077 and atmega M328p at 16 MHz
The connection with the PC is trough USB cable.

Thanks in advance!

(BASCOM-AVR version : 2.0.7.7 , Latest : 2.0.7.8 )

You have to write a PC software, which repeatedly or on request sends date and time via the virtual serial com, which was installed for the ATM328.
The ATM328 receives the data stream via serial com and does whatever desired.
