WDT/Basic Timer Interrupt Simulation -user configured?

Hi Friends,

I am getting into the MSP430 family slowly & steadily. Thanks to the support you guys offer when I am in need. This forum is an active community.

I am now trying to simulate my code through the IAR's simulator. I find the GPIO interrupts working well and feel thrilled when the debugger hits the break point :)

However, WDT and Basic Timer interrupts also seem to be configurable the same way. That is : I get the first activation & Repeat interval for them also.

I don't understand the purpose of this. I am expecting the computer to understand that it has to take in the interrupt interval from my code like :

BTCTL |= BT_ADLY_125;

Is there an option or am i missing out something?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Pawan

    in IAR, click Help>C-SPY Debugging Guide
    Page 244 show a timer example, though  "basictimer" for  what msp family that is?.
    I have 2015 IAR and one option is: TIMER0_A0_VECTOR if I set it up project for a G2553
     
    But it looks like you set it up as normal, but no need to set a TA0CCR0 register value.
    as the simulator don't look for it as to compare that with its cycles count, but use the cycles count number you use in the setup.

    Yes, that is what I mean... I thought there are some methods to configure the system such that it reads the code and automatically sets the timer interrupt..
