What exactly do you mean by "Time"?
How long the Gamebuino has been running, or the actual time?
If it is the second one, you will need a Real Time Clock Module put into one of the expansion slots, then make some code to tell the time.

You can find one here.

You might need a Library too, so RTClib might work.

No Problem. :)
While trying to find something, I had an idea to make a system check program, with a clock and (perhaps) module detection.
What is your idea?
