Floral Clocks

Mid 17th century French textile print woven into the heart of a clock's circuit. Actual size: 9"x6.5".

These clocks are hand made in a limited edition of 8.

Basic instructions

There are 3 buttons to control the clock; counting from the top is 1, 2 in the middle then 3 at the bottom.

Press button 1 and 2 simultaneously to enter setup mode. Press 3 to rotate through all of the clock's settings. In order: year, month, date, day of the week (1 to 7), hour, minute, seconds. To set any of these once you're in setup mode, press button 1 to go up; or 2 to go down until you hit the correct numbers.

The small 3V battery on the clock allows it to remember the time, even if not plugged. If the clock resets to zero when you unplug it, change the 3V battery for a new one.

Get into it Instructions

The clock's basic code and schematics can be found on the instructions for version 1.0: the wooden clock. The components and main circuit elements are the same, the pattern was simply added on top.

For hackers at heart, notice that the actual chip is placed onto a socket and not soldered directly on the board. Feel free to reprogram it or upgrade the Floral clocks.
