Functionality Overview

Two timers are configured
Each timer is set with some sample alarm interval
On reaching the interval value each timer will generate an alarm
One of the timers is configured to automatically reload it's counter value on the alarm
The other timer is configured to keep incrementing and is reloaded by the application each time the alarm happens
Alarms trigger subsequent interrupts, that is tracked with messages printed on the terminal:
