Command TIMER   Description Twenty (20) count-down timers with 1ms resolution - TIMER0 to TIMER19 - v49.25   Syntax/Parameters TIMER0 - TIMER19   Options To setup the interrupts:         INT(name,TIMER0,function); to INT(name,TIMER19,function); To read the remain time before expiry         LOAD(var,TIMER0);     To run  the timer once         LOAD(TIMER0,time);   // time is in milliseconds To run the timer multiple times         LOAD(TIMER0,time,num);     // time is in milliseconds         num is number of times timer runs, 1 = 1 time, 2 = 2 times etc, 0 = non-stop        To clear the timer         LOAD(TIMER0,0);   Example LOAD(TIMER6,1000);     // TIMER6 runs once and expires after one second LOAD(TIMER9,1000,0);  // TIMER9 runs forever, expiring every second LOAD(TIMER14,500,5);  // TIMER14 runs five times, expiring every 500ms LOAD(TIMER3,0);          // Clear TIMER3 LOAD(TIMER17,time);    // TIMER17 runs once and expires after value in var time   Update Information  Version  Title Date    Details 49.48  System Timer Accuracy 21 Nov 13  Show * Fixed accuracy of 200us system tick timer - used for incrementing counters CNTRUN, CNTMILLI, ... CNTDAYS, TIMER0-TIMER19, and decrementing WAIT(). * Wrong divider value was being used. Needed to be divider value minus one. * This resulted in a tick value of 200.174us rather than 200us. * Assuming a perfect crystal frequency giving a 92,000,000Hz clock then there would be a +0.87ms error for every second. 49.25  Timers - Increased number of built-in timers from 10 to 20 ranging TIMER0..TIMER19 01 Nov 12  Show * Increased number of built-in timers from 10 to 20 ranging TIMER0..TIMER19 49.06  Internal Timer - General internal timer value made a volatile to guarantee correct value read. 29 Jun 12  Show General internal timer value made a volatile to guarantee correct value read. 49.00  Interrupts - Fixed problem with interrupts stopping after 255 interrupts 22 Mar 12  Show Fixed problem with interrupts stopping after 255 interrupts 49.00  Error Interrupt Handlers - Code now jumps to error handlers for Prefetch Abort, Data Abort, SWI, and Undefined Interrupts. 22 Mar 12  Show Code now jumps to error handlers for Prefetch Abort, Data Abort, SWI, and Undefined Interrupts. 48.24  Timers - Fixed problem with loading timer when timer name specified in lowercase. 10 Mar 12  Show Fixed problem with loading timer when timer name specified in lowercase. Fixed problem with processing fast timer interrupts which caused application to sit in loop processing timer functions. 47.04  Timer Interrupts 26 Jul 11  Show Fixed problem with timer interrupt recursively re-entering when the timer is reconfigured in the INT() handler. 45.00  Timers (TIMER0 - TIMER9) - Ten (10) count-down timers with 1ms resolution have been added, TIMER0 to TIMER9 10 Jun 11  Show Ten (10) count-down timers with 1ms resolution have been added, TIMER0 to TIMER9 To setup the interrupts: INT(name,TIMER0,function); to INT(name,TIMER9,function); To read the remain time before expiry LOAD(var,TIMER0); To run the timer once LOAD(TIMER0,time); // time is in milliseconds To run the timer multiple times LOAD(TIMER0,time,num); time is in milliseconds num is number of times timer runs, 1 = 1 time, 2 = 2 times etc, 0 = non-stop To clear the timer LOAD(TIMER0,0); LOAD(TIMER6,1000); // TIMER6 runs once and expires after one second LOAD(TIMER9,1000,0); // TIMER9 runs forever, expiring every second LOAD(TIMER4,500,5); // TIMER4 runs five times, expiring every 500ms LOAD(TIMER3,0); // Clear TIMER3 LOAD(TIMER7,time); // TIMER7 runs once and expires after value in var time
