The SLEEP command allows macros to pause for a determined time and then continue without any user intervention (c.f. the PAUSE command). The length of pause is specified in seconds. e.g. The following example pauses for 5 seconds:
Main menu: ENTER COMMAND [PLOT DATA]:sleep LENGTH OF PAUSE (seconds) (Range: 0.0 to 1000.000) [1.000000]:5
This command is mainly useful for demonstration macros, which should run continuously without any user intervention, but nevertheless need to pause so that message text can be read.
