Wait For Input
The Wait For Input dialog box lets you instruct the Quick Script to wait for a specified amount of time until the host is ready to allow keyboard input. If input is allowed within the specified time, the true branch is executed. If not, the false branch is executed. The Wait For Input command is often preceded by the Send Keystrokes statement.
Timeout (seconds)—Time in seconds to wait for input. If the host is ready before this time expires, the If Ready command or action is performed. If the host is not ready, the Otherwise command or action is performed.
Settle Time (seconds)—Time in seconds beyond the timeout to verify whether the host is still ready. This is necessary because certain hosts allow input and then quickly disallow input again. If the host is not ready after the settle time, the Wait For Input statement fails.
If Ready—Directs execution to the statement or command (from the drop-down list) if the host is still ready.
Otherwise—Directs execution to the statement or command (from the drop-down list) if the host is not ready.
Properties—Specifies settings for the selected statement. There are no properties for commands such as Do Nothing, Connect, Disconnect, and Terminate Quick Script Execution. The button is not enabled for the Go To Label and Compare Variables commands, if (respectively) a label is not yet defined or a variable is not yet declared.
