Hmm... IR receiver? I'm sure they have universal remotes in the bar
already. Could you point at it and punch in the time setting?<div><div class="h5"><br>

<div dir="ltr">So here's what I believe to be the
best candidate (so far) for setting the time.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It just requires a switch (and whatever pull
resistor).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Using two gestures hold and click.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To set 2:31:</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To set 3:02</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If there were not four holds, it throws out
your data and goes back to clock with whatever
time it was on. So I guess there's a third
gesture which is wait which abandons the
operation.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The worst scenario is 12:59:</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click click click click click
click click click click click <br>
</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click click click <br>
</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click click click click click
click click <br>
</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It's easy enough to do and only requires one
switch.</div>
