Intercharacter Delay
This parameter specifies the intercharacter de
lay be
tween 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.
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
page 25
and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to enter Programming
Mode.
4. Scan the bar code: SELECT INTERCHARACTER DELAY SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in
Appendix D, Keypad
, that represent the duration which
was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.
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 beginning.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Programming Mode.
This completes the procedure. See
Table 33
for some examples of how to set this feature.
