I haven't worked with the S series, but I'm assuming that its similar to
the A3's.  Those three functions are default functions that don't do
anything.  They are handled in the assembly file.

To create your on interrupts, you have to to first enable what you want
to have interrupts, and then tell the main processor what to do with it.
The follow code is taking from the lib_AT91SAMA3 file that came with the
IAR example code.  I'm pretty sure the SAM7S has a similar file.

AT91F_AIC_ConfigureIt(AT91C_BASE_AIC, AT91C_ID_SYS,
EXTCOMM_INTERRUPT_PRIORITY, AT91C_AIC_SRCTYPE_INT_HIGH_LEVEL,
InterruptServicer::Interrupt_ID_SYS);
AT91F_AIC_EnableIt(AT91C_BASE_AIC, AT91C_ID_SYS);

The word 'InterruptServicer::Interrupt_ID_SYS' is the name of the
function you want this interrupt to call when it fires.  Then you just
have to write that function somewhere else, and it is automatically
executed when that interrupt fires.

'EXTCOMM_INTERRUPT_PRIORITY' is just a number (the priority of the
interrupt.

Thanks a lot. I'll try.

Hi Jim,

I have designed and tested the interrupt as what you said. It is working
now.
Thanks a lot.

Glad I could be of service :)
