Thread: timer

hi would anyone be able to tell me why the delay function does not work correctly? the programs made to run on a c167 microprocessor. I'm trying to implement a timer using the T6 timer in GPT2 however it doesnt seem to delay/work if anyone can help i;d be really greatful

thanks

Code:

void delay (unsigned short MS);
void Timer_Six_Interrupt (void); 
void InitialiseTimer (void);
    

int TimerCount;

void main(void)
{
  
    DP2 = 0xFFFF;	// make the port pins as outputs
    ODP2 = 0xFFFF;	// output type open drain I.E pull down

    CC0IO = 0x0000; //THIS CONTROLS THE LEDS TURNING each led on
	
	InitialiseTimer();


                delay(10000);
	CC15IO = 0xFF;	//this tuns led 15 off
  	CC4IO = 0xFF; //this turns led five off
	delay(5);
	CC15IO = 0x0000;	//this tuns led 15 on
	CC4IO = 0x0000; //this turns led five on
 }

void InitialiseTimer (void)
{
 T6CON = 0x0;
 T6 = ReloadValue;
 TimerCount = 0;  
 T6IE = 1;
 T6R = 1;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
}
		 
void delay (unsigned short MS)
{
  static unsigned long StartTime, EndTime;

do{
StartTime = TimerCount;
EndTime = StartTime+MS;
TimerCount++;
}while(TimerCount != EndTime);

}
