Scheduling relays to open/close

obzrve

Hey Everyone ,

For my project I have 4 channel relay would like channel 1 to turn on  at 5 pm and off at 6 pm on Monday. For a length of a hour.

Channel 2 to turn on  at 5 pm  and off 6 pm on Tuesday.

Channel 3 to turn on  at 5 pm  and off 6 pm on Wednesday.

Channel 4 to turn on  at 5 pm  and off 6 pm on Thursday.

 

1.) No two relays will be on at the same time.
2.) The start time and stop times are the same.
3.) Only the day of the week and relay number changes.
4.) If there is a power outage, the program must sense the correct day and time so it will resume power to the correct relay and not wait for the next cycle.

Can someone point me in the right direction, share a link or video that would help me on this project?

  •   this is straight forward.. As suggested use the RTC kit from Adafruit. A little snooping with Google I found the diagram.image

    **** CAUTION *** even though the Relays are rated at 16amp at 250 volts. they are other ways to skin the cat. I use this same setup to run lamps in

    flight simulator normally 24 v @ < 1 amp.

    BTW most of the I will use a Relay Board with an I2C interface.
