RTC_SetAlarmStatusAsync

Syntax

#include <nitro/rtc.h>
RTCResult RTC_SetAlarmStatusAsync(
            RTCAlarmChan	        chan,
            const RTCAlarmStatus*	status,
            RTCCallback			callback,
            void*			arg );

Arguments

chan Uses RTCAlarmChan to specify the alarm channel.
status Pointer to RTCAlarmStatus containing status to set.
callback Pointer to the callback function. This callback is called from within the interrupt handler.
arg Argument to pass to the callback function.

Return Values

If the request succeeds, it returns 0. If the request fails, it returns a numeric value other than 0.

Description

This function asynchronously writes alarm permission status for the real-time clock. It sends a request to ARM7 to allow alarm permissions and returns the process result without waiting for a response from the processor. To get the result from the processor, you must use the result argument. If this function fails, no operation is performed and no user callback function is called.

Note

In write alarm state, do not set to any state other than enable or prohibit. Values are written to the variable specified by the status argument asynchronously. Do not use this variable for anything else until a user callback function confirms the completion of this operation.
