G4 Dwell time in seconds

Temporally defined dwell time with defined duration in s and automatic program continuation. The dwell time must always be specified since it does not take effect modally. The command works in sets. Dwelling begins only when the previously programmed motion path has been run in its entirety. Once the time has expired, the program indicator switches over. The instruction must be placed before the parameter. Specifying the parameter is mandatory. The parameter identifier is optional, but it must be selected from the list of address commands (X, Y, Z, I, J, K, …) if it is used. When converting into the SEW Robot Language, note that the time in s that is specified in G-code is converted into ms for the WAIT_TIME command. The conversion is displayed as an expression in the SRL program (e.g. 0.8 s = 0.8 * 1000 ms).

Difference from the standard: This command accepts only parameters with an optional parameter name that has been selected from the list of address commands. An equal sign is prohibited.
