Abstract: A design proposal for developing a high-precision timer of the real-time digital copying control system is put forward by analyzing the real-time characteristics of Windows 2000 operating system. Proposals of using information systems timer-WM-TIMER, multimedia timer, V×D and hardware to achieve high-precision timing in Windows operating system are analyzed and compared. Based on computer high-frequency timer and multi-thread technology, timing function provided by Microsoft Visual C++ is used to achieve a high-precision software timer of the system. Finally, the researched timing method is tested in Advantech IPC-610 host with Intel Pentium 4 processor, and the maximum timing error is less than 5μs which meets the system timing requirements.
