using delay_ms()

[beaker404]

Got a simple application where I am doing nothing but monitoring a signal and then sending the calculated frequency via serial. My frequency range is between 1 and 2 hz so very slow relatively speaking.

My question is the event I am watching has some ring to it so to keep from picking up multiple events per event, I merely use a delay_ms(400) to add some time to allow the signal to stabilize. My question is do interrupts like RTCC continue to work while a long delay_ms() call is made? should I break that into say a 10 ms delay and a for loop to get the time?

Comments on this topic welcome.

Interrupts are serviced.

If you look in the manual:

Thanks, my interrupt is very small, only index a variable and return is all. So I should be ok.
