PIC18F4550 timer1 questions

[Bruce]

This isn't exactly the best place for questions on the C18 compiler, but,
since I dabble with this myself, and it's a freebie, here's a quick example;

Assumes 20MHz osc. Give 1S pulses on RD0/RD1.

#include p18f452.h
#include timers.h

#pragma config OSC = HS
#pragma config WDT = OFF
#pragma config LVP = OFF

unsigned int Loops = 0;

void Timer1(unsigned int val)
{
    PIR1bits.TMR1IF = 0;
    WriteTimer1(val);
    
    while(!PIR1bits.TMR1IF)
    PIR1bits.TMR1IF=0;
    Loops += 1;
}

void main(void)
{	
    LATD = 0x00;
    TRISD = 0x00;
    T1CON = 0b10110101;
    WDTCON = 0;

    while(1)  	
    {
      LATD = 0x01;
      while(Loops<10)
      {
        Timer1(0x0bdc);
      }
      LATD = 0x08;
      while(Loops<20)
      {
        Timer1(0x0bdc);
      }
      Loops = 0;
    }
}

I'll let you figure out how & why it works with the 18F datasheet & C18
manuals.

Microchip's forum http://forum.microchip.com/tt.asp?forumid=3 would be
your best bet for getting quick answers on this compiler.

I'll look into your example and next direct all my questions to the link you gave me.
