/*
      A simple program designed to setup and demonstrate the DS1302 RTC library and 
      DS1302 Real Time Clock Module - BKAA100056
     
      The program uses the DS1302 RTC library to initialise the DS1302 chipset 
      and then read the time from it every second.

    // Loop and print the time every second.
    void loop() {
