Wedge Quiet Interval
This option specifies the amount of time to look for keyboard activity before
the reader breaks the keyboard connection in order to transmit data to host.
The selectable range for this feature is from 0 to 990ms in 10ms increments.
Follow these instructions to set this feature:
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. Scan the bar code: SELECT WEDGE QUIET INTERVAL SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in
Appendix D, Keypad , that
represent 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 bar code to exit Programming
Mode.
This completes the procedure to set the Wedge Quiet Interval. See Table 17 for
some examples of how to set this feature.

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.
