RS-232/USB COM Parameters
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 speci-
fies 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 bar code to enter Program-
ming Mode.
4. Go to
and scan the bar code: SELECT INTERCHARACTER DELAY
SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in
, 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.
This completes the procedure. See
for some examples of how to
set this feature.
