Syntax

#include <nitro/os.h>
void OS_InitVAlarm( void );
 

Arguments

None.

Return Values

None.

Description

This function initializes a V-Count alarm system. Unlike OS_InitAlarm(), this system does not use ticks.

Call OS_InitVAlarm() before using V-count alarm related functions. Calling it once is sufficient. Calling it more than once has no effect.

Call OS_EndVAlarm() when ending V-Count alarm systems. Perform initialization when using V-Count alarms again after that function ends.
