***Fibonacci mode** wakes you gradually by starting the alarm about 27 minutes early, by beeping at increasingly shorter intervals per the [Fibonacci sequence](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number) (610 seconds, then 337, then 233...). In this mode, snooze does not take effect; any button press will silence the alarm for the day, even if the set alarm time hasn’t been reached yet. This mode is enabled in settings, and applies only to [beeper and pulse signals](#signals).

Various options, such as enabled functionality, RTC, display, I/O pins, timeouts, and control behaviors, are specified in a config file. This allows you to maintain multiple configs for various clock hardware profiles, and simply include the relevant config at the top of the `.ino` before compiling. Several [example configs](https://github.com/clockspot/arduino-clock/tree/master/arduino-clock/configs) are provided, and [`~sample.h`](https://github.com/clockspot/arduino-clock/blob/master/arduino-clock/configs/%7Esample.h) includes all possible options with detailed comments.

You may also wish to adjust the defaults for the clock’s user-configurable values, to best suit its intended use; these defaults are currently specified in the main code (`optsDef[]` for [settings](https://github.com/clockspot/arduino-clock/blob/master/INSTRUCTIONS.md#settings-menu) and `initEEPROM()` for other values).
