Using Pause and TMR0

[Pesticida]

Hi,

I Found another Way.

When I use for Example this:
Display:
Lcdout ..........................
Pause 5000
LCDout..........................
Pause 4000
Resume
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seconds = Seconds + 9 ' Add 9 Seconds to Seconds Variable
Then I add in My Second Variable the Seconds that I have Lost with my pause statment.
Is This a good Idea?

I add a new Code line:

Timer:
TMR0IF = 0 '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''Clear Timer 0 Interrupt
TMR0H = $0B
TMR0L = $DB
Second[2] = Second[2] + 1

I add next Line
If Second[2] > 60 Then Second[2] = Second[2] - 60 : Minute[2] = Minute[2] + 1

If Second[2] = 60 Then Minute[2] = Minute[2] + 1 :Second[2] = 0
If Minute[2] >= 60 Then Hour[2] = Hour[2] + 1 :Minute[2] = 0
If Hour[2] >= 24 Then Hour[2] = 0

Hi Pesti,

If it works for your application, then go for it...;o}

I can't see where it would hurt. Remember, however, that you have a time period that's not
accounted for during each LCDOUT sequence. If this missing time isn't a problem, then just
go with what you have.

If timing is critical, you could always find out how long each LCDOUT takes, and factor this
into your PAUSE time using PAUSEUS.
