If a
SET
TIMER
command is issued, the CP makes the appropriate modifications to the timer table and
parameter RAM, but does not scan the timer table until the next tick of the internal timer. It is important
to use the
SET
TIMER
command to properly synchronize timer table modifications to the execution of the
CP.
14.6.10 Using the RISC Timers to Track CP Loading
The RISC timers can be used to track CP loading. The following sequence provides a way to use the 16
RISC timers to determine if the CP ever exceeds the 96% utilization level during any tick interval.
Removing the timers adds a 4% margin to the CP utilization level, but the aggressive user can use this
technique to push CP performance to its limit. The user should use the standard initialization sequence and
incorporate the following differences:
1. Program the tick of the RISC timers to be every 1,024 x 16 = 16,384 system clocks.
2. Disable RISC timer interrupts, if preferred.
3. Using the
SET
TIMER
command, initialize all 16 RISC timers to have a timer period of 0xFFFF,
which equates to 65,536.
4. Program one of the four general-purpose timers to increment once every tick. The general-purpose
timer should be free-running and should have a timeout of 65,536.
5. After a few hours of operation, compare the general-purpose timer to the current count of RISC
timer 15. If it is more than two ticks different from the general-purpose timer, the CP has, during
some tick interval, exceeded the 96% utilization level.
NOTE
General-purpose timers are up counters, but RISC timers are down counters.
The user should take this under consideration when comparing timer counts.
