Hi, does this means that two tasks can´t wait for the same event?

Thanks

It is design by contract. Please refer to SYSBIOS API reference guide available under docs/ folder in SYSBIOS.

"Unlike semaphores, Only a single Task can pend on an Event object", could you explain this please?

The API is designed that way. If that doesn't fit your need, please use some other method.

In our experience, Semaphore should serve most of the use cases and is more widely used.
