7837 User’s Guide
Some terminals drop information (characters) if data comes through too quickly.
Intercharacter, interfunction, and intermessage delays slow the transmission of
data, which increases data integrity.
Each delay is composed of a 5 millisecond step. You can program up to 99
steps (of 5 ms each).
