DELAY
The
DELAY
command is provided to allow the user to place time delays in the
execution of a Macro. The amount of time delayed is specified in seconds in the range
of 0 to 65535 (2
16
) seconds. Although the DELAY interval is accurate to 0.01% ± 5
milliseconds, it is not a function of the internal clock on the Micro488/EX. Therefore,
for delays of 65,000 seconds a shift of up to 6.5 seconds may be noticed relative to the
internal clock.
