NM and CM callable.
Returns system timer information.
Syntax
I32
count := TIMER;
Functional Return
- count
32-bit signed integer (assigned functional return)
The actual millisecond count since the midnight preceding the last system
coldload.
Operation Notes
The resolution of the system timer is one millisecond; readings
taken within a one-millisecond period can be identical. The system
timer is reset to zero every 24-days at 12:00 midnight. If using
the TIMER intrinsic to compute elapsed time, correct for
this condition by:
Subtracting the current count from the previous count.
If the result is negative, add 2,073,600,000 (number of
milliseconds in 24 days).
