I have a working solution for an SPI based real time clock, sold by Spark Fun, through the Shield Base. I have used code from community members in this thread: http://forums.netdui...3234/?hl=ds3234
It is slow and I get a 'System.Exception' error (see below) but it works!

Converting a working N2 project (4.3) was very easy.
I have attached the VS 2012 solution. Hopefully it will help someone.
