Used to determine the accuracy of the Rainbowduino's clock.
Every 10 seconds, clocktest
will tell you how long it took to send
a message and get a response, and how much the Rainbowduino's clock
has shifted relative to the PC's clock.
This information can be used with the SET_CLOCK_ADJUST
command
to give more accurate time. The SET_CLOCK_ADJUST
command takes
the number of milliseconds it takes for the Rainbowduino to lose
or gain a millisecond. If your Rainbowduino's clock is running
fast, a negative number will slow the clock down; if the clock is
running slow, a positive number will speed the clock up.
