G4 P- 

  • P - time in seconds.

The number P is the time in seconds during which all axes remain stationary. It can be a floating point number if you need to specify fractions of a second.

G4 does not affect spindle, coolant and any I/O operations.

G4 example line:
G4 P5.5 (5.5 seconds pause between G-Code lines)
It is an error if:
  • the P is negative or not omitted;
  • executing a command in "Simulator" mode.
