 For most of the use cases of GPTimer, you should set up the alarm action before starting the timer, except for the simple wall-clock scenario, where a free running timer is enough. To set up the alarm action, you should configure several members of :cpp:type:`gptimer_alarm_config_t` based on how you make use of the alarm event:
 
-- :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::alarm_count` sets the target count value that triggers the alarm event. You should also take the counting direction into consideration when setting the alarm value. Specially, :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::alarm_count` and :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::reload_count` cannot be set to the same value when :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::auto_reload_on_alarm` is true, as keeping reload with a target alarm count is meaningless.

Please also note, because of the interrupt latency, it's not recommended to set the alarm period smaller than 5 us.
 
 - :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::reload_count` sets the count value to be reloaded when the alarm event happens. This configuration only takes effect when :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::auto_reload_on_alarm` is set to true.

 对于大多数通用定时器使用场景而言，应在启动定时器之前设置警报动作，但不包括简单的挂钟场景，该场景仅需自由运行的定时器。设置警报动作，需要根据如何使用警报事件来配置 :cpp:type:`gptimer_alarm_config_t` 的不同参数：
 
--  :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::alarm_count` 设置触发警报事件的目标计数值。设置警报值时还需考虑计数方向。尤其是当 :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::auto_reload_on_alarm` 为 true 时，:cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::alarm_count` 和 :cpp:member:`gptimer_alarm_config_t::reload_count` 不能设置为相同的值，因为警报值和重载值相同时没有意义。
