weekdayWrite()

Function sets the value of the MCP7940's day-of-week setting to a number between 1 and 7, values outside of this range are ignored. This value is user-settable and is set by default in the adjust() function to a value for the date where Monday equates to 1 and Sunday equates to 7. The value can be read using weekdayRead(). Changing this value doesn't affect the RTC's DateTime value as the day-of-week is not used in any calculations.

Example:

...
MCP7940_Class MCP7940;        // Create an instance of the MCP7940
...
  MCP7940.adjust(DateTime(2017,07,23,12,0,0)); // Set clock to 2017-07-23 12:00:00
  MCP7940.weekdayWrite(3); // set the day of week to Wed, even though it is Sun
  Serial.print("Day of week in RTC for 2017-07-23 is ");
  Serial.println(MCP7940.weekdayRead());
