In RTClibExtended.h it is important to always include all arguments: seconds, minutes, hours, daydate. If 0 value is used then this means "always" for that argument. Example: RTC.setAlarm(ALM1_MATCH_SECONDS, 30, 00, 0, 0); // activate every minute at 30 seconds RTC.setAlarm(ALM2_MATCH_MINUTES, 0, 01, 0, 0); // activate every hour at 01 minutes RTC.setAlarm(ALM1_MATCH_HOURS, 33, 18, 0); // activate every day at 18:33

Example:

RTC.setAlarm(ALM1_MATCH_SECONDS, 30, 00, 0, 0); // activate every minute at 30 seconds
RTC.setAlarm(ALM2_MATCH_MINUTES, 0, 01, 0, 0); // activate every hour at 01 minutes
RTC.setAlarm(ALM1_MATCH_HOURS, 33, 18, 0); // activate every day at 18:33

(note: this example is copied from RTClibExtended.h examples, author does not adhere to his own rule to include seconds, even in ALM2. But it works). Any suggestions or corrections are welcomed!
