nested timer interruptd

[sunbird]

Hello, On my nano board, I want to output 1-second HIGH unrelated pulses on six pins, based on selection from a UART (for example) ..

Would a single 1s timer nested six deep work?

1S pulse accuracy not critical.

Thanks

I don’t think that nesting is the answer. I would use an array of millisecond values.

void loop()
{
  unsigned long currentTime = millis();
  for (int i=0; i<TIMER_COUNT; i++)
  {
    if (Timers[i] != 0 && currentTime - Timers[i] >= 1000)
    {
      digitalWrite(OutputPins[i], LOW);
      Timers[i] = 0; // Done with the timer
    }
  }

  // To start a pulse on output 'n':
  Timer[n] = currentTime;  // Start the timer
  digitalWrite(OutputPins[n], HIGH);
}

your code is a bit confusing, please include all of it.

That is all that I wrote. You did not give enough information to write more.
Is there some particular part that you find confusing? Perhaps I can add more comments to help you understand.
