CCS/TM4C1294NCPDT: TImer HWI object

Part Number: TM4C1294NCPDT


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

While using the timer interrupt I had disabled the enable at startup option. It said that as a result the timer would be enabled only when the object is created?? What object does it mean?? I want the timer to start at some other instance...How is it possible??

  • With TI-RTOS, you can create a timer via the Timer_create API. It can be a one-shot or periodic timer.

    When you create a timer, one of the parameters to the create is the startMode. The default is to use Timer_StartMode_AUTO which starts the timer immediately (if BIOS_start has already been called or when BIOS_start is called). If you set startMode to Timer_StartMode_USER, the timer is started when you call Timer_start.
