Check it out! <a href="http://leaflabs.com/docs/maple/timers/" rel="nofollow">http://leaflabs.com/docs/maple/timers/</a> </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=50#post-232 Fri, 11 Jun 2010 11:49:38 +0000 poslathian 232@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>awesome! timers.h is the low level access lib from libmaple, eventually wed like to add a timers api to wirish (the cpp, "arduino lib" part of our library). I'm not sure exactly what the api will look like, but well try and include hooks for interrupts. Keep us posted on your progress! </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=50#post-230 Fri, 11 Jun 2010 08:38:28 +0000 efox 230@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>sorry the code above will not work (for you). I appended the timers.c and timers.h file for my functions, and forgot to post those functions along with the test code. ill post them when i get home, but all they are are just slightly modified existing functions. </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=50#post-229 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 23:35:26 +0000 efox 229@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>After getting blinky to work (like i had to really do anything :p ) i thought id check out the timers. It seems to me that there are approx 4 general purpose timers. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many options.</p> <p>I wrote up something just to start,stop,and read a timer. Nothing fancy, I just wanted to see it work ! I'll attempt to keep appending this with new unlocked features (lol..yes it does sound like a video game)...there are so many things that can be done with timers...hopefully i can create my own timer library that would do basic to intermediate tasks...i'll post more as I progress</p> <pre><code>#include &quot;stdlib.h&quot; HardwareUsb Serial; int ledPin = 13; // LED connected to digital pin 13 char rxBuffer; uint8 numTimer=0; uint8 timerArray[4] = {1,2,3,4}; uint16 counterVal; uint8 loopControl=0; // The setup() method runs once, when the sketch starts void setup() { // initialize the digital pin as an output: pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); timer_general_init(timerArray[1],1); //timer 2, 1 prescale timer_general_init(timerArray[2],1); //timer 3, 1 prescale timer_general_init(timerArray[3],1); //timer 4, 1 prescale Serial.print(&quot;Enter Timer No.:&quot;); } void loop() { Serial.print(&quot;Timer No.:&quot;); loopControl=0; while(!loopControl ) { if(Serial.available() &gt; 0 ) { loopControl = 1; rxBuffer = Serial.read(); if(rxBuffer == &#39;1&#39;) numTimer = 1; else if(rxBuffer == &#39;2&#39;) numTimer = 2; else if (rxBuffer == &#39;3&#39;) numTimer = 3; else if (rxBuffer == &#39;4&#39;) numTimer = 4; else numTimer = 2; //lets this as the default timer } } Serial.print(&quot;Timer &quot;); Serial.println(numTimer); Serial.print(&quot;Command:&quot;); while(loopControl) { if(Serial.available() &gt; 0 ) { rxBuffer = Serial.read(); if(rxBuffer == &#39;r&#39;) //read { counterVal=timer_read_count(numTimer); //read current timer val Serial.print(&quot;Counter:&quot;); Serial.println(counterVal); } else if(rxBuffer == &#39;d&#39;) //disable { timer_en_dis(numTimer,0); } else if (rxBuffer == &#39;e&#39;) //enable { timer_en_dis(numTimer,1); } else if (rxBuffer == &#39;b&#39;) //back out { loopControl =0; } else { Serial.println(); Serial.println(&quot;Invalid&quot;); Serial.println(&quot;Command:&quot;); } } //timers_set_reload(numTimer,inByte); //countVal=timer_read_count(numTimer); //Serial.println(counter); } }</code></pre> <p>lol..i'll make it look prettier later..but feel free to change it up to test the timers out so you know how it works. This was something quick for me and suited my curiosity but if you want to add more...please do and POST HERE !! sharing ftw ! </p>
