I am looking for a timer example which can be used to time the scanned packets interval in millisecond resolution

Question

Dear All 
 Could you point me a timer example, can be used to time the interval in ms between something? like read the system time when something happens and then read again when it happens again? 
 Thank you!

Hi Ping 
 Good to hear it worked fine to start/stop scan directly from the UART process thread 
 In order for the work item to be run you need to use the k_work_submit(..) function. If you call k_work_submit(&my_scan) after you change the dataMode variable then the work item should run soon after the variable is changed. 
 If you are changing the dataMode variable in a thread it is not strictly necessary to use a work item, then you can just call the function directly. Work items are necessary if you want to call these functions from an ISR context (such as a callback function triggered by an interrupt). 
 Best regards Torbjørn
