Flowcode v10 Useful addition to Timer Interrupt configuration pane

Post by Brendan »

Many amongst us will be using timer interrupts on devices that clock such timers from internal busses (i.e. not the input clock frequency always assumed by Flowcode), rendering the otherwise-useful interrupt frequency calculations quite wrong. Ordinarily, it is most useful to play around with pre-scaler and rollover values to confirm timer frequency in the editor, without getting the calculator out.

It would therefore be most useful if the user had the option to change the declared 'clock speed' in this pane, to the relevant bus speed of the timer being used. For example, defaulting to the input clock frequency (as already), but as an editable field from which Flowcode may then calculate the correct interrupt frequency.

Many thanks,
Brendan
