Dear Customer,
From your message it's not clear which CPU family do you use and which
CodeWarrior version. It's also not very clear why you need to get a float.
Anyway, please notice the difference between the FreeCntr8, FreeCntr16, FreeCntr32 and FreeCntr beans.
The FreeCntr8,16,32 is internally counting a periodical interrupts with a period
determined by the property 'Resolution' and allows to return this value as
microseconds, miliseconds etc.
The FreeCntr bean (without a number) is a low-level (platform specific) bean
that uses hardware counter and allows to configure its period (using the property period), reset it and read its value in the native hardware format of the counter register.
best regards
