Intercharacter Delay
This parameter specifies the intercharacter delay between the end of one character and the
beginning of the next. The delay can be set within a range of zero (0) to 990 milliseconds in
10ms increments. A setting of zero specifies no delay.
NOTE
This feature applies ONLY to the Keyboard Wedge interface.
To set the delay:
1.
Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.
2.
Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with
leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.
3.
Go to
and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Pro-
gramming Mode.
4.
Scan the bar code: SELECT INTERCHARACTER DELAY SETTING.
5.
Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in
, that represent the
duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication
after the last character.
NOTE
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL bar code to
abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the begin-
ning.
6.
Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Programming Mode.
This completes the procedure. See the table below for examples of how to set this feature.
