I am using the the command "SetInterval(1)" to force an interval expiration on a task using WaitForInterval. However, this causes a delay of up to 1 RTC tick before the task resumes. Is there a way I can force an immediate interval expiration?

I suspect that ResumeTask() will serve your purpose. You'll have to pass the task stack of the task that is awaiting the interval expiration (unless it is the Main() task).

Aha! Thats what I wanted. Not sure how I missed that function. I'm still new to working with tasks.

Thank you much.
