Time Sensor!

I need a small, light weight rotary pot that'll do 360! Hopefully, a lot lighter than the industrial strenght, with low drag(if that's the correct term).

Coupling it to the clock movement shouldn't be bad. Analog time for my FB!!

a source for the rotary pot would be appreciated!!

Why do you need this? Why not sync with an internet time clock?

I've misunderstood previous posts. I didn't think time was available.

Remember I'm new at this!!! & gone wild.

How do I read it in or assign the time to a variable. example, I need it to trigger zone 1 watering at 1:15 PM for 10 minutes?

I do graphics and play with gadgets. I am not a coder, but can cannibalize routines. Obviously, my dashboard is based on the FB sample.

I would very much appreciate it if someone could show me how to incorporate time as a variable.

It's not yet available, but Nick will implement it sometime next week.

This is a tough time for us - we both have finals this week and next.
