*First of all, i should tell that these two functions are in TinyOS 1, not TinyOS 2x. So, you should be working on TinyOS 1. then your questions: ** Timer.start(TIMER_REPEAT,1000) : by calling this, you set a timer which signals a fired() event in every 1000 time. For an example if you want to read the phenominon in every 1000 time period, then you use TIMER_REPEAT. Timer.start(TIMER_ONE_SHOT,1000) : this signals fired() event only once. * > > and what about Timer.fired().

But, cal Timer.getNow() gives the current time.* *Note: I am also new to TinyOS, so i guess somebody else will correct me, if i am wrong or missing something.* Lasanthi On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 11:06 AM, trilok i <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi to all, > > I was getting confused and frustration on timers concept. > Please, I need help for better understanding.
