I'm trying to use the following RTC module (PCF8563) with Arduino Uno.enter image description here

I am using this library to set/get time and date from PCF8563. However, whenever I shut down the Arduino, the time/date is lost! Even though, as you can see in the picture, the module is equipped with a 3V battery to keep running when Arduino is unplugged.

Any help would be highly appreciated!

    Did you try to put the jumper in the "BAT" position? Commented Feb 27, 2017 at 16:38

[SOLVED]

The solution is simply to put a jumper between BAT and VCC positions in the module itself. Many thanks to Edgar Bonet
