chronometer

[paul borgmeier]

As Bob mentioned, I posted some short code examples that automatically keeps time - the first of the two updates an lcd display. It works best for long term accuracy. If you do not need more that long term second to second accuracy, they might just work. The first program given keeps time in hh:MM format. The second in HH:MM:SS format. You could easily add the :SS to the first program and add your stopwatch timer function in the section marked “Do something here.”

These program are here http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=11

Take a look. Also worth mentioning is Melanie's “Olympic Timer,” which is in the example code section of this forum as well.

Good Luck,

What kind of time tracking and accuracy are you after? (e.g., 10ths of Seconds, Seconds, Minutes, Hours, etc.)

The original Olympic Timer has a Calibration Value that you could adjust.

The Clock code I posted primarily as an example of One Button usage did not, though there was provision for it.

Add in a Calibration value and you are in business.
