when I call the function StartRun(), it does not recognize wait for 1 sec and counts in us?
Timer
// The startRun function when called does not perform same. The controller is not recognizing wait(1) adn counts in micro seconds I cannot find the reason. it should do the same whhen called again by interrupt.

You should write a small routine to prove to yourself that the "wait(xx)" function does in fact wait xxx seconds. Blink the led with the blinky routine or something similar. Then if that works..what could it be? It seems that TextLCD is probably inheriting the Serial class which is a buffered print as of a few releases ago. Perhaps try having it inherit RawSerial instead and see if the problem persists?
