I've only ever come across one, at a thrift store, and now it's part of my
collection. Someone brought this subject up last year or so. They are
fairly rare. Good luck!
Does anyone have the AT protocol spec for it? I've always been interested
in the concept of a timekeeper that I could read/set from machines that
were not ethernet/NTP-capable. I've even sat around dreaming up ways to
build a wall clock that was settable and readable either via IR or some
serial connection so I'd have a chance of keeping things sync'ed around here.
If I ever did get an RS-232-based timekeeper, I'd think about throwing it
on a terminal server so everybody else on there could get to it.
I've never seen one, but I'd rather not re-invent the wheel. Just knowing
the command set is a starting point for even a PIC-based modern replica.
