timer or freecounter

[HKS]

I am trying to set a 5 sec delay for my hc12 MCU. This is to stop a DC motor for 5 sec. Now I am trying to use a freecounter to run the TTicks and use that value that is close to 5 sec. But I have no idea how to get the value for TTicks in my code. I tried setting a variable equal to TTicks but it gave me an error. Also i tried using FreeCntr321_GetValMS( ): which i am having trouble setting the proper format.
Any help will be appreciated.

Hello

Here I would create a project for the appropriate CPU with ProcessorExpert support.

Add a FreeCntr or a TimerInt Bean to your project, adjust the property of the bean to whatever configuration you are looking for and build the project.

You can then check the generated code to detect how you need to configure your timer.
