Keyboard Interface
Wedge Quiet Interval
Specifies the amount of time the reader looks for keyboard activity before it
breaks the keyboard connection in order to transmit data to host. The range is
from 0 to 990ms in 10ms increments.
This feature applies ONLY to the Keyboard Wedge interface.
1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.
2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the
r
esult with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05,
20 = 20, etc.
3. Go to page 63 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to
enter Prog. Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: 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
wil
l 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 again at the
beginning.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit.
This completes the procedure to set the Wedge Quiet Interval. See Table 35 for
some examples of how to set this feature.
