MC9S12NE64 timers

[Mampaey]

Hi everyone,

I have many problems with timers.

could someone tell me what I have to do to have a timer wich reset and works forever, with interrupts.

Thanks.

Hi

This code should make a LED twinkle.

In fact, the LED isn't.

Thanks.

here is my code

Why then i=setPortPinValue('g', 0, ON); line is commented out?

Did you initialize interrupt vectors table properly? Is there some dedicated *.c module with interrupts table defined? Maybe set interrupt vectors in *.prm file? If not then you should change timer overflow ISR like this:

interrupt VectorNumber_Vtimovf void _Vtimovf (void)

{

...

}

What do you want the code to do and what does the code actually do?

One suggestion so far, make your global variables volatile since they are being used by more than one thread.

You should probably post your code in order for us to help you.  Also, you might want to look at http://users.ece.utexas.edu/~valvano/Starterfiles/ which has plenty of starter code for timers if you search for "output compare" on the page.
