RTOS/TMDSEVM6678: Timer start question

Part Number: TMDSEVM6678

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Hello,

I have a design issue regarding timers that I'm hoping someone could help.  I have a timer created to run continuously and need to have a second timer start running inside the first timer's ISR and stop when the time is up.  The second timer's period is smaller than the first timer.  So each time the first timer fires, the second timer would fire once too. I'm having the parameter for start mode for second timer StartMode_USER, and use timer_start() inside the first ISR, but it seems that I need to stop the timer somewhere.  Can someone please tell me what would be the best strategy to accomplish this.

Thank you.
