Dwell (G04 K)
7.2 Dwell (G04 K)
A dwell can be programmed via function G04 K.
The dwell value is programmed in hundredths of a second via format K5 (1..99999).
Example:
G04 K50 ; Dwell of 50 hundredths of a second (0.5 seconds)
G04 K200 ; Dwell of 200 hundredths of a second (2 seconds)
Function G04 K is not modal, so it should be programmed whenever a dwell is required. Function
G04 K can be programmed as G4 K.
The dwell is executed at the beginning of the block in which it is programmed.
Note: When programming G04 K0 or G04 K, instead of applying a delay, it only interrupts block
preparation and it will refresh the coordinates. See "7.1.1 G04 K0: Block preparation
interruption and coordinate update" on page 111.
