DELAY
(Statement)
Suspends program processing for a designated period time.
DELAY <Delay time>
The program processing stops until the time designated by <Delay time> elapses.
<Delay time> is expressed in ms, however, the actual delay time changes in increments of 1/60. If multiple tasks are processed at the same time, the delay time may possibly be longer than the designated value.
-
When using delay time, if an instantaneous stop during execution of an instruction is executed and the system is restarted, the delay time will elapse even during suspension.
-
The actual delay time involves an error of approximately 16 ms.
-
To assure the specified delay time, calculate as follows.
|
DIM li1 As Integer
|
|
|
DELAY 100
|
'Waits until 100ms(0.1s) elapses.
|
|
DELAY li1 + 10
|
'Waits until time of (li1 + 10) elapses.
