Periodic Timer Pulse not quite working

I have an application that is using a timer in periodic mode. It fires at 100ms most of the time. However, in a 24 hr period I get around 35 occurances where it seems like I get a missed pulse and then two pulses back to back (I used a scope with a digital output to log this). My process executes for around 40ms and is the only thing running on the system. I have increased the priority to 40 and set the system clock to 100us to see if this helps but it just reduces the jitter.

Cheers.

I’m not sure it explains the “back to back” case but it’s worth checking out: qnx.com/developers/articles/ … 826_2.html

I think that is answer to your question: openqnx.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t9500-.html
