DESCRIPTION

The rtc utility is used to set the real-time clock on the South Coast Science digital front-end (DFE) for BeagleBone.

The real-time clock is not available on Raspberry Pi systems.

SYNOPSIS

rtc.py [-i] [-s] [-v]

Options
--version	show program's version number and exit
-h, --help	show this help message and exit
-i, --init	initialise RTC default operating settings
-s, --set	set RTC time from system time
-v, --verbose	report narrative to stderr

EXAMPLES

./rtc.py -s

BUGS

In some operating system configurations, the real-time clock is under control of the operating system time module, and therefore the user is not granted access.
