What are you expecting? From the Assembler Services Reference manual on STIMERM (emphasis added by me):
Quote:
The time interval is a real-time interval, measured continuously. The task can continue (WAIT=NO) or suspend execution (WAIT=YES). If the task continues execution, it can pass control to an exit routine (EXIT parameter) when the time interval is complete. If you specify an exit routine, the task can optionally pass a parameter to the exit routine (PARM parameter). The task grants control to the optional asynchronous timer completion exit when the time interval expires. If the task did not specify either an asynchronous timer completion routine or WAIT=YES, the task receives no indication that the time interval has expired.
