Delay macro variable problem

[Taurus]

Hello

I have a little problem, please see the program enclosed.
I should expect that a square wave 50% on/off is, but it looks like that the variable is not working in the delay macro in uS.
As you can see, I did use one time a delay macro with a variable and one time without.
Please run the program and take a look on the oscilloscope.
For now I did not test it with mS and Seconds.

Please, tel me, what do I do wrong.

Thanks

Hello Taurus.
This is a know issue with Boost C

The problem is that the boostC delay function only allows a byte parameter. When you give flowcode a fixed delay eg 1000 ms then it breaks this down into a series of calls that all use bytes. If you are using a variable value then Flowcode cannot do this correctly.

This would apply to you since using a delay value of 500. My guess is on the scope you are seeing delay on of 255us and off for 500us
There is a work around see:
