Wait

Command:

Wait

Command Syntax:

Wait timeInSeconds

Suspends execution for a period of timeInSeconds seconds.

Range

0 through 100

Describe:

Wait may be used in TI-Innovator™ Hub programs to allow time for sensor or control communications prior to the program executing the next command line.

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.

Note: You can use the Wait command within a user-defined program but not within a function.

Result:

Wait suspends execution of a program for a given time. Maximum time is 100 seconds. During the wait time, the busy indicator is on in the top-right corner of the screen.
