sleep function

Postby MarcoBoschi » Fri May 26, 2023 8:04 am

Hi all I wonder if the sleep function could block a program.
I talk about a program that is active on a server without human's interactivity with an active Timer with a 60" polling.
This polling launches a function (FUNCTION POLLING() that performs a lot of things and sometimes I introduce some waits using sleep function for one minutes.

Does exist an alternative to sleep function?
Is it possible to active a second timer?

When the function polling is in execution I perform a oTimer:deactivate()
obviously at the end before RETURN here is a oTimer:activate()

Many thanks

Dear Marco,

Use SysRefresh() or SysWait( nValue )
