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 blocks. 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. In addition, the parameter identifier must be specified. The address letter X or F may be used. When converting G-code 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). Besides specifying a constant value, a REAL variable can also be used. The value of the REAL variable is also interpreted in seconds.

INFORMATION: Unlike the ISO standard, this command accepts only parameter names selected from the address letter list. An equal sign is prohibited.
