Ok... here's the step-by-step for changing your syslib properties:
1. Right-click on your project, in the IDE, and select "System Library Properties" or right-click on your System Library project and select "Properties". 2. Change "Timestamp timer:" from "None" to whatever your new timer's name. - Take a look at any full_featured design's "high_res_timer" to see how to properly configure an interval timer in SOPC Builder. 3. Click OK to apply the changes. 4. Rebuild your project, and you should see the correct timestamp# def's. in your system.h file. Hopefully, that will get you where you want to go. BTW, both the Dhrystone software example and the software for the custom instruction tutorial make use of timestamp timers. Perhaps, you could refer to these example, in their entirety, prior to moving forward with your development? Cheers, - slacker - Altera_Forum

CORRECT !!! http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif
I try to write TIMER_0 (my second timer in system) direct in the file instead "none" , but after generation IDE overwrite with "none" again. So i try as you suggest , because i saw the post later , and IDE compile correct . After that my code was compiled successfully. I change period from ms to us but the result is 0 (us) NIOS II is the faster system that i never see . http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif Maybe there is other little problem because alt_timestamp return alwais 0 . ...mmmmmmmmmmmmmm http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif Otherwise , Slacker , thank you for your interest you are very nice http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif Now i want to check why doesn't work properly have a good night (for me 'cause in italy now it's 1.30 ) ciao walter - Altera_Forum
