TC65 troubling with JAVA Date() class
Hi,
I work with TC65 on NetBeans and my program has to connect a TCP server. When it's connected, the server send to me current time and the modem execute ATCommand like :
String rep=at.send("AT+CCLK=\""+year+"/"+month+"/"+day+","+h+":"+m+":"+s+"\"\r");
A println function let me now this ATCommand worked. BUT! the current time in modem is not set ! And when i relaunch application, a println function at the program's top says the good date ! I use "new Date()" to have the current time, but i m wondering why AT+CCLK from JAVA doesn't work during the first execution. By the way, in ATcommand mode (by serial) AT+CCLK work immediately ! Thank you to help me ...

When you execute the AT+CCLK in you Java Application, the TC65 is answering with "OK"?
My firmware uses the AT+CCLK too, and it works fine!
It connects to a DayTime server using a TCP connection, get the correct time, and sets it using the at+cclk.
By the way, why are u trying to use the "Date" class?
# 2
Yes it answers "OK". The command works but i use Date class with Timer tasks and current time is not update...
# 3
Could you post your code?
# 4
public void dateUpdate(Calendar cal) {
String year = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.YEAR)).substring(2);
String month = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.MONTH)+1);
if(month.length()==1)
month = "0".concat(month);
String day = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
if(day.length()==1)
day = "0".concat(day);
String h = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY));
if(h.length()==1)
h = "0".concat(h);
String m = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.MINUTE));
if(m.length()==1)
m = "0".concat(m);
String s = String.valueOf(cal.get(Calendar.SECOND));
if(s.length()==1)
s = "0".concat(s);
try{
//System.out.println("Heure millis avant AT System & Date : "+System.currentTimeMillis()+"/"+new Date().getTime());
String rep=at.send("AT+CCLK=\""+year+"/"+month+"/"+day+","+h+":"+m+":"+s+"\"\r");
System.out.println("DATE:"+rep+" System : "+System.currentTimeMillis()+"/"+new Date().getTime());
}catch(ATCommandFailedException ex) {
System.out.println("ATCommand failed! "+ex.getMessage());
}
}
ATCommand answer printed ("rep") is good (right hour) but System.currentTimeMillis() or new Date() ares wrong ... After a modem reset and without use AT+CCLK new Stae() return godd hour ...
# 5
The "System.currentTimeMillis()" and "getTime()" of "Date" instances are dependent of what is set in TC65 (and you set it with AT+CCLK). If you set the time and after that, the System.currentTimeMilis() returns wrong values, them you may be setting the wrong time.
By the way, if you powered the ME down, the actual time and date will be lost.
# 6
Yes but AT+CCLK command respons is OK and is like <AT+CCLK="GOOD DATE" OK>. when modem restart hour is memorized and time is set with the date "GOOD DATE" by command AT+CCLK send before restart ....

I'm having the same problem, but the link above no longer works. Anyone have an idea where I can find the information now?

Yes, in my head ;)It's actually very simple: You'll need to calculate the difference between the real time and the java time, and save in in a long value. Then make a new time class that will give you the time taking in account the difference.

I'll contact my head-hunting-cannibal-for-hire then...

Thanks. I will note that it is stupid that this is the solution. Why on earth did they ever decide not to be able to set the time properly... *sigh*
