How to use BOTH timers?

Hi.. I am using a pic12f675. I want to know how to use both timers if that is possible? I am not sure that I even need to but I am using an interrupt on pin change to read PWM which needs to keep an accurate count. I started this project to make a switch to turn things (Lights) on and off on an RC plane. Now that I have figured that out, I want the program to turn on/off a beacon (Rampup/Down) LED and flash two bright white LED's (One function to turn ALL on/off) I have 2 separate projects that work but trying to put them together is the trick. Any help would be appreciated : ) Thanks.

Hello,
Are you using Flowcode for this project? Have you tried running both programs together already? The timers should both be usable in your program.

Benj, Thanks for the fast reply. Yes, I am using Flowcode 5. I have not yet put the two programs together into one. I think I have to manually add all the code to make it into one program right? I am not sure if or how to designate timer 0 for counting the PWM and timer 1 to count for the ramping up/down LED's (Looks like an aircraft beacon), and, the flashing strobe light (Bright white LED.) I could put the codes here but I am at work right now : (
