I fixed it. BLUF: At the top of my timer1 code, I inserted "decimal".
I back tracked my code and found out that if I didn't load bitnames.frt, my timer1 code would behave correctly. I noticed that bitnames.frt had a "hex" declaration at the top. It led me to think that that declaration persisted until my timer1 code was loaded. Thus the "decimal" declaration was inserted. I don't know if it is poor coding practice to not declare a base at the beginning of the file, but I'll adopt that practice. It is interesting to note that I explicitly declare my number bases in my words. i.e. $ for hex % for binary. So I don't see how the lack of decimal declaration affects the performance of my interrupt code. This is my code: decimal variable timer1.interrupt : timer1.isr 1 timer1.interrupt ! \ signal that the timer has triggered ; \ initialization setting for timer1 interrupt : timer1.init ( -- ) $ffff OCR1A ! 0 timer1.interrupt ! ['] timer1.isr TIMER1_COMPAAddr int! ; : timer1.start 0 timer1.interrupt ! %00001100 TCCR1B c! \ no input capture, ctc mode 4, prescaler to 256 %00000010 TIMSK1 c! \ timer 1 output compare A match interrupt enable ; : timer1.stop %00000000 TCCR1B c! \ no input capture, ctc mode 4, prescaler to 256 %00000000 TIMSK1 c! \ stop int1 ; : testtimer1 begin timer1.interrupt @ 1 = if ." T " CR 0 timer1.interrupt ! then key? until ; Thanks.
