Settings
Following is a detailed discussion of each of the settings, their at-
tributes, and the effects each of these will have on data output from
your MS860.
Your Unitech reader contains a built-in data decoder that translates
raw bar code input into Keyboard Scan Code, or ASCII Code in the
case of RS232 interface readers, with the result that scanned data
exits the reader as if you had typed the text.
The four keyboard wedge parameters are listed on the following page.
Keyboard Wedge
The three attributes for “Beeps and Delays” are: “Beep Tone”,
“Interblock Delay”, and “Intercharacter Delay”.
Beeps and Delays
Beep Tone
Select a value from “None” to “High” to set the loudness of the tone, or
select “Low to High” or “High to Low” to set the characteristic of the
tone.
Default is “Medium”.
Interblock Delay
Interblock delay is the time duration that can be inserted between one
block of data and another. This function is analogous to the time
duration required between dialing a phone number’s country code and
the phone number itself. The interblock delay can be inserted via
SCM’s Data Editing function (see page 57).
Default is “10 ms”.
Intercharacter Delay
Intercharacter delay is the time duration between data characters sent
from the scanner to the computer. Intercharacter delay is usually
inserted when the data flow must be slowed down to accommodate a
slower computer.
Default is “1 ms”.
