Sorry, I mean we need to know what it's supposed to do.:) like is it playing sounds? Does it matter what day or time? Is it enabled by a speech command? Or a joystick button? Tell us what you are in visioning:)

The most simple alarm is like this...

Code:


WaitUntilTime(8, 30)

Say("Wake up!")


otherwise, you can get creative like this example: WaitUntilTime.EZB

Personally I like to use the hour, minute, second, day, month & year variables over WaitUntilTime, it's more coding and possibly takes more processing power but the script can then be "multi-purpose" triggering other scripts to start or stop as necessary.

I knocked up a speak time project on the cloud a few weeks ago which splits the time in to the various sections such as morning, afternoon, evening and night and also splits the minutes up so it know if to say "$minute minutes to $hour am/pm", "$minute minutes past $hour am/pm" or "$hour $minute am/pm"

That script should hopefully aid you in an alarm function. Use the idea behind splitting the day in to sections for the various alarms and replace the SayWait commands for ControlCommand commands to trigger "alarm actions"
