- Program execution will wait for the specified number of clock units. Units are in 1-millisecond counts.
-
It is best to use the delay function to insert a programmed delay in a program because tasks that are waiting do not consume any CPU cycles.
- This makes the most number of CPU cycles available for other tasks.
-
This command is exactly the same as the wait1MSec() and sleep() commands
