Calendar time from PC to nRF52840

[Bar]

Hello .

I am looking for a way to pass the calendar time from the PC by the emulator to the MCU on first run.

I am using Segger Embedded studio 4.12

Is there a function that can do it?

Thanks

Bar.

What do you mean by that?

The USB-to-UART converter on a Nordic nRF52840-DK ?

I mean threw the debbuger, which is connect to the IDE and can get the time of the PC.

Well.. There's no out-of-the-box way to do that through the debugger. But, you will have to set up a way to synchronize the RTC at regular intervals anyways, because of clock drifting. So I don't see why you want to do that. Do you have a separate clock chip?
