#include <TimerOne.h>

int motherLoopLedBlue = 7;
int timerInterruptLed = 8;

volatile boolean onOrOff = LOW; // set led on or off inside the ISR
volatile unsigned long functionCounter = 0; // count how many times the function is called

unsigned int motherLoopCounter = 0; // to pick up the value of the function loop

void setup() {

pinMode(timerInterruptLed, OUTPUT);
pinMode(motherLoopLedBlue, OUTPUT);
Timer1.initialize(2000000); // 2 million microseconds is 2 seconds
Timer1.attachInterrupt(function);
Serial.begin(9600);

}

void loop() {
noInterrupts();
motherLoopCounter = functionCounter;
interrupts();
Serial.print("function is called = ");
Serial.println(motherLoopCounter);

if(motherLoopCounter == 12){
functionCounter = 0;
}

digitalWrite(motherLoopLedBlue, HIGH);
delay(500);
digitalWrite(motherLoopLedBlue, LOW);
delay(500);
}

//interrupt service routine function
void function(){

digitalWrite(timerInterruptLed, onOrOff);
onOrOff =! onOrOff;
functionCounter ++;

}

// this is the code for timerone library but it’s maximum timer between 2 led is is 8.5 seconds i need to maximize it to 5 minuite

i need to maximize it to 5 minuite

May I ask, for what purpose? What timing accuracy is required?

#3

How about counting the timer interrupts? 150 times 2 seconds gives 5 minutes.
