Intercharacter, Interfunction, and Intermessage Delays
Some terminals drop information (characters) if data comes through too quickly.
Intercharacter, interfunction, and intermessage delays slow the transmission of data,
increasing data integrity.
Each delay is composed of a 5 millisecond step. You can program up to 99 steps(of 5 ms
each) for a range of 0-495 ms.
Intercharacter Delay
An intercharacter delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed between the transmission of
each character of scanned data. Scan the Intercharacter Delay bar code below, then scan the
number of milliseconds and the SAVE bar code using the Programming Chart inside the back
cover of this manual.
To remove this delay, scan the Intercharacter Delay bar code, then set the number of steps
to 0. Scan the SAVE bar code using the Programming Chart inside the back cover of this
manual.
Note: Intercharacter delays are not supported in USB serial emulation.
User Specified Intercharacter Delay
An intercharacter delay of up to 495 milliseconds may be placed after the transmission of a
particular character of scanned data. Scan the Delay Length bar code below, then scan the
number of milliseconds and the SAVE bar code using the Programming Chart inside the back
cover of this manual.
Next, scan the Character to Trigger Delay bar code, then the 2-digit hex value for the ASCII
character that will trigger the delay ASCII Conversion Chart (Codepage 1252).
