[Tinyos-help] Maximum timer interval for MicaZ?

[Siirtola Harri]

Ok, that would only be a minute. A counter var is needed in Timer.fired
event. I'll check what's done in xmesh apps to achieve longer intervals.

Thanks, Michael!

TimerC uses Timer/Counter1 which is 16 bits, so that's a theoretical
max.
But you would have to go look at the code, or experiment, to see if
there's more headroom eaten up by data munging...
