TimerEvent provides an easy way to trigger functions every set time and is a non-blocking alternative to delay() function. TimerEvent is based on TimedAction 1.6 by Alexander Brevig (alexanderbrevig@gmail.com). It is updated to work with Arduino IDE 1.8.5.

Public functions

set(unsigned long myPeriod,void (*myFunction)())

Used to setup the timer. Use this within setup(). myPeriod is the interval in milliseconds that the function myFunction will repeat. For example: myTimer.set(1000, myFunction);

set(unsigned long myTimer,unsigned long myPeriod,void (*myFunction)())

Similar to the one above, myTimer is the starting time in unsigned long, which will otherwise be 0 if not declared.

reset()

Resets the timer.

disable()

Disables the timer.

enable()

Enable the timer.

update()

update() goes inside loop(), which does the checks every clock cycle.

setInterval( unsigned long myPeriod )

Used to change the interval after you had set it.
