While the idea of converting my timer to a task based process is something I never considered, in looking at Jon's code, the program that will incorporate the timer can't suffer the fair amount of additional code. I will, however, keep the task concept in mind for other adevntures. I am investigating the rate parameter suggestion, but wonder just how big the value could be? for example would a 10 minute timer using a value of 1,000,000 be too large. Put another way, is there any documentation around covering the use of the interrupt rate parameter? And finally, could 5ms? tell my where I can find his reference to SX-Key help. You guys have been great and have vastly expanded my horizons. I didn't expect to be taken to the places referenced in your responses. I look forward to your comments to the above.
