ItimerStop() stops the default or specified callback timer.
void ItimerStop()
void ItimerStop(uint8_t timerNumber)
Commands

|---|---|---|---|
ItimerStop() | None | void | Stops the default or specified callback timer. |
Example
This uses the default callback timer (Timer2). The callback changes only a flag; serial output runs in loop().
void onTimer() {} void setup() { Serial.begin(115200); if (!ItimerSet(1000, onTimer)) return; // Configure the callback and interval first. ItimerStart(); // Start the configured callback timer. } void loop() { static bool stopped = false; if (!stopped && millis() >= 5000) { ItimerStop(); // Stop the default callback timer after 5 s. stopped = true; Serial.println(F("timer stopped")); } }
Precautions
- The callback runs in an interrupt. Change only a flag there; do not call
delay(),Serial, I2C or SPI in it. - The callback timer without a timer number uses Timer2. Do not use it together with
tone()or PWM output that uses Timer2. - When specifying another hardware timer, check for conflicts with PWM, analog output and high-speed counter functions using it.
