G code pause for specified amount
«

I'm trying to debug and issue and would like to write program with a pause of a specified amount of time.
Is there a G code command to do this?
I'm familiar with M0, but I want something that will resume movement automatically at a specified time.
Any ideas?

For a delay or dwell in G-Code use code G4.
eg. to insert a delay of 5 sec use the line:
G4 P5

Thank you!
Do you have to use whole numbers, or can a decimal be used?
