Loop
continually
from
the
beginning
or
Loop-to-marker
of
the
current
program.
The
loop
will
occur
to
the
last
Loop-to-marker
of
the
current
program
if
it
was
set
previously.
This
command
can
be
used
once
in
a
program
as
the
last
command,
it
functions
the
same
as
a
"continuous
run
input".

A
maximum
of
10
nested
loop
commands
can
be
used
per
run.
NOTE
:
When
the
Loop
reaches
its
last
count,
the
non-loop
command
directly
preceding
the
Loop
will
be
ignored.
Memory
usage

Example:
This
example
sets
a
loop
to
repeat,
any
previous
commands
4000-1

repeating
the
directly
preceding
non-loop

Consecutively
nested
loops
are
equal

the
product
of
their

current
program.
All
looping
commands
in
the
current
program
that
follow
will
branch
to
here.
Any
loop
commands
in
the
program
prior
to
this
marker
will
branch
to
the
beginning
of
the
program
or
a
previous
marker.
NOTE
:
Multiple
markers
can
be
used
in
a
program,
the
number
is
only
limited
by
the
program
memory
available
(256
