Timer Interrupt
In addition to the interrupt input as described in the preceding section, slim type CPU modules FC4A-D20RK1, FC4A-
D20RS1, FC4A-D40K1, and FC4A-D40S1 have a timer interrupt function. When a repetitive operation is required, the
timer interrupt can be used to call a subroutine repeatedly at predetermined intervals of 10 through 140 ms.
The Function Area Settings dialog box is used to enable the timer interrupt and to specify the interval, from 10 to 140 ms,
to execute the timer interrupt. When the timer interrupt is enabled, the program execution jumps to the jump destination
label number stored in special data register D8036 repeatedly while the CPU is running. When the interrupt program is
completed, the program execution returns to the main program at the address where the interrupt occurred.
Since these settings relate to the user program, the user program must be downloaded to the MicroSmart after changing
any of these settings.

Disable and Enable Interrupts
The timer interrupt and interrupt inputs I2 through I5 are normally enabled while the CPU is running, and can also be indi-
vidually disabled using the DI instruction or enabled using the EI instruction. When timer interrupt is enabled, M8144 is
turned on. When disabled, M8144 is turned off. See page 18-7.
