A typical use for this function is to prompt the user to press the EXIT (LOCAL) key to abort the script
or press any other key to continue. For example, if the
keyCode
value
75
is returned (the EXIT
(LOCAL)
key was pressed), you can call the
exit()
function to abort the script.
The table below lists the
keyCode
values for each front panel action.

When using this function, use built-in constants such as
display.KEY_RIGHT
(rather than the
numeric value of
103
). This allows for better forward compatibility with firmware revisions.
Example
key = display.waitkey()
print(key)
Pause script execution until the operator presses a key or the navigation wheel , or rotates the navigation
wheel.
If the output is:
8.01
It indicates that the MEAS(A) key was pressed.
