Arduino Mega code to power clock
/*
   Clock project using two MX7219 matrix displays and the AdaFruit FX Soundboard
   Provides date, time, temp, humidity and event notifications in rotating order
   Also can chime in multiple ways, including Westminster chimes
   Chimes are provided by Adafruit FX Soundboard in GPIO mode
   There are some conditional options:
      Davids_Clock changes some of the events and notifications 
      Extra_Display uses a small Adafruit 1306 OLED to continuously show date and time while the main display
      rolls through its iterations
      DDT includes a couple of small debugging (get it?) routines and opens serial terminal

// Code to set up the clock
// Pushbutton 1 is the toggler , cycle between  year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds
// Pushbutton 2 is the increment up one
// Pushbutton 3 is the decrement down one

// Chime setup for toggle switch
//  Center = No chimes
//  Up = Westminster hours + quarterly
//  Down = Simple Bell (hours and 1/2 hour)
