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.
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. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Program-
ming Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT INTERCHARACTER DELAY SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix E, Keypad, that rep-
resent the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-
beep indication after the last character.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Program-
ming Mode.
This completes the procedure. See Table 7 for some examples of how to set this fea-
ture.
Table 7. Intercharacter Delay Setting Examples
NOTE
If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to
abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.
