How I can manage timers with FREERTOS?. For example, I need to wake up a task if an event arrived or if the the timer is finish

if(message  == MAS1)
  ///
else if (Timer1 == FINISH)
///…///
else if (Timer2 == FINISH)

Have the task wait on a queue/semaphore with a timeout?  If the event occurs then the queue/semaphore makes the task unblock.  If the event does not occur then the timeout (timer) makes the task unblock.

Have the task bock indefinately on a queue.  If the event occurs then a message is posted onto the queue telling the task what the event was.  If the time out occurs then a message is posted onto the queue to tell the task that there was a time out (just another event type really).

Modify the code to do what you want :wink:
