Keyboard InterfaceProduct Reference Guide 281Intercharacter DelayThis parameter specifies the intercharacter delay between the end of onecharacter and the beginning of the next. The delay can be set within a rangeof zero (0) to 990 milliseconds in 10ms increments. A setting of zero speci-fies 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). Padthe result with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00,5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.3. Go to page 31 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar codeto enter Programming Mode.4. Scan the bar code: SELECT INTERCHARACTER DELAY SETTING.5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D, Key-pad, that represent the duration which was determined in the stepsabove. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.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 againat the beginning.6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Program-ming Mode.This completes the procedure. See Table 36 for some examples of how toset this feature.Table 36.
