Code examples for timer A up count mode, with output mode 6 then 7?

I have been looking for some code snippets of the timer A up count mode

Setting TA0CCR0 = 512 for 1 sec with the crystal hooked up and /8

Input low to start timer start timer in mode 6 toggle/set

count ++ to get two seconds

toggle output when condition reached

output to start timer again in mode 7 reset/set  (or use another timer if I have to)

count CCRO 60 times for 60 seconds

reset output

Or I think I might be able to use

output mode 2 toggle/reset,

count 2 periods

output high

count 60 periods

reset output

I can not seem to find the code to set the timer modes to try this.  I have dug through slap113 (timers in depth)  and slau144j  which helped me get to this line of thinking, but I can not find code snippets on the modes to get going on it.

THANKS!!!
