Harald,

I had NutThreadSetPriority(128) in the thread and NutSleep(0) in the main
programm. That way, the thread was never called. Only with NutSleep(1) in
the main programm the thread was called.

Removing the line "NutThreadSetPriority(128)" made the programm working as
expected, even with NutSleep(0) in the main program.

Thanks
