Start event every "n" (1-4) weeks
« on: February 14, 2005, 03:38:49 PM »
With a T100MD888, how would I start an event every "N" weeks. The application is an exerciser for a standby generator.

Also assuming with Basi will be able to display time, day, date on attached display.  :)

You can either monitor the real time clock calender or start  a down-counter driven by a 1 minute clock pulse and when the counter counts down to zero, fire your event.

You can use this counter to fire a event from 1 to 9999 minutes (=416 days) interval so that should be more than adequate.
