14.1. Toggling the Timer
PLVtmr supplies a toggle so that you can leave your timing program calls in your code, but only have the timings execute when desired.
To turn on the activity of PLVtmr, call the turn_on program; its header is:
PROCEDURE turn_on;
To turn off the activity of PLVtmr, call the turn_on program; its header is:
PROCEDURE turn_off;
When turned off, PLVtmr will not add any overhead to your code execution and will not display any timing information.
