Timer library - multiple timers

[Nikosant03]

Hi everyone,

I suppose this is a very simple question... I want to create multiple timers using the Timer Library.

Each time I want to create a new timer based on RTC1 peripheral I have to define and create it uniquely? For instance, in case I want three timers I have to do like this?

APP_TIMER_DEF(my_timer_1);
APP_TIMER_DEF(my_timer_2);
APP_TIMER_DEF(my_timer_3);

err_code = app_timer_create(&my_timer_1, mode, timeout_handler1)
err_code = app_timer_create(&my_timer_2, mode, timeout_handler2)
err_code = app_timer_create(&my_timer_3, mode, timeout_handler3)

Thanks in advance

Nick

Hi Nick,

Yes, this is the correct approach for setting up multiple timer instances. You may take a look at the ble_app_hrs project if you want an example of how the timers are set up. This example uses 4 instances.

Awesome, I was looking for an example but I couldn't find. 

Thanks for your support!!
