Overview

alarm clock working standalone
Arduino alarm clock
This sketch is made by Ronald Siemons.
It’s a standalone working alarm clock and timer that can switch on a device for a certain time. The program is menu-driven and very easy to work with. No computer needed when it is ready. It is a completely functional standalone device so to say.
The clock can be set manually on the device itself. The alarm can be set on the device itself to be stored in the EEPROM. The timer works by manually setting it or automatically via the program.
The clock timer is made for a shop to turn on and off the neon lights at the front of the shop.
How it works

When pressing the function button, several menus will be shown and entered when the function button is released. So push the function button and keep it pushed in until the right menu is shown. Let the button go and see what the display shows. Work through the chosen menu with the next button and make the necessary settings with the help of the up and down button. Going back to the function button will put the setting into the EEPROM of the Arduino. See the video and it all will be clear.
Code

clock alarm timer
/*
   Clock and timer developed by Ronald Siemons
   The sketch is free software and for anybody free to use on his or her own risk, if there would be.

   TO KNOW!!!!!!!!!!
   Make a choice out of the menu what show up on the display when pushing the select button. Every
   two secconds an other choice to make will be shown as long as the select button is pushed. By letting it go
   the last shown choice will be made.

   What it does:
   The clock and timer switches on and off a relais.
   The clock is made for stand alone usesage. So one can set the time and the alarm on the device itself
   without the need of an USB connection to a computer.
   The general idee:
   The clock is mate as part of a system to switch on and off the lights in a shop. This part is made
   for the neon lights at the front of the shop. The lights only work in the evening and go off every day at the same time.
   So the alarm is set on the off switch of the lights and as the time off lighting up the lights is known the timer works
   backwords from the known of switching time back during a certain period to the starting moment of the lights.
   The period of lighting depends on the pereod of the year and can be set by hand or automatic.
   As it has to work all year round without setting and resetting the system every now and again
   daylight saving settings ar built in also. Readjustment of the daylight savings has to be done
   for the specific country it is going to be used.
