The way I interpret the wiki and the manual is that the command waits 
for the input only as long as the Q timer is set for. This works well 
for error handling but for a machine interface I would want it to wait 
w/o error handling.
Is there a way to test this in one of the simulations. I don't have a 
working system in front of me right now to test it. I am not sure how I 
would simulate the input with out hardware?

Thanks,
Mike
