Part IV. Communications Processor Module
The TGCR2 register is shown in Figure 17-4.Table 17-2 describes TGCR2 Þelds.
3RST2 Reset timer.
0Reset the corresponding timer (a software reset is identical to an external reset).
1Enable the corresponding timer if the STP bit is cleared.
4GM1 Gate mode for TGA
TE1. This bit is valid only if the gate function is enabled in TMR1 or TMR2.
0 Restart gate mode. TGA
TE1 is used to enable/disable count. A falling TGATE1 enables and
restarts the count and a rising edge of TGA
TE1 disables the count.
1Normal gate mode. This mode is the same as 0, except the falling edge of TGA
TE1 does not
restart the count value in TCN.
5 Ñ Reserved, should be cleared.
6STP1 Stop timer.
0Normal operation.
1Reduce power consumption of the timer. This bit stops all clocks to the timer, except the clock
from the internal bus interface, which allows the user to read and write timer registers. The clocks
to the timer remain stopped until the user clears this bit or a hardware reset occurs.
7RST1 Reset timer.
0Reset the corresponding timer (a software reset is identical to an external reset).
1Enable the corresponding timer if STP = 0.

Bit Name Description
0CAS4 Cascade timers.
0Normal operation.
1Timers 3 and 4 cascades to form a 32-bit timer.
1 Ñ Reserved, should be cleared.
2STP 4 Stop timer.
0Normal operation.
1Reduce power consumption of the timer. This bit stops all clocks to the timer, except the clock
from the internal bus interface, which allows the user to read and write timer registers. The clocks
to the timer remain stopped until the user clears this bit or a hardware reset occurs.
3RST4 Reset timer.
0Reset the corresponding timer (a software reset is identical to an external reset).
1Enable the corresponding timer if the STP bit is cleared.
