Why doesn't my task work when a timer is added. (with MicroC/OS-II)

[RyuKucchan]

As shown in the following source code, if a timer is added, the timer interrupt operation will be performed periodically, but Task1 will not work.

If I do not execute init_timer (), Task1 is working reliably.

(*) It is necessary to turn off and on for some reason.

Please tell me the cause and the solution.

Hi,

Are you using the intel's timer IP?

[RyuKucchan]

Thanks for your comment.

Yes,I using the the intel's timer IP.

The information of system.h about USER_TIMER was described at the previous question.

Please let me know any information.
