If an element in either matrix is empty
(void), that element is ignored, and the
corresponding element in the other matrix
is also ignored. For more information on
empty elements, see page 232.

Wait
Catalog >
Wait timeInSeconds
Suspends execution for a period of
timeInSeconds seconds.
Wait is particularly useful in a program that
needs a brief delay to allow requested data
to become available.
The argument timeInSeconds must be an
expression that simplifies to a decimal value
in the range 0 through 100. The command
rounds this value up to the nearest 0.1
seconds.
To cancel a Wait that is in progress,
• Handheld: Hold down the c key and
press · repeatedly.
• Windows®: Hold down the F12 key and
press Enter repeatedly.
• Macintosh®: Hold down the F5 key and
press Enter repeatedly.
• iPad®: The app displays a prompt. You can
continue waiting or cancel.
Note: You can use the Wait command within
a user-defined program but not within a
function.
To wait 4 seconds:
Wait 4
To wait 1/2 second:
Wait 0.5
To wait 1.3 seconds using the variable
seccount:
seccount:=1.3
Wait seccount
This example switches a greenLED on for
0.5 seconds and then switches it off.
Send "SET GREEN 1 ON"
Wait 0.5
Send "SET GREEN 1 OFF"
