Intermessage Delay: is a time delay between messages outputted by the Hand-held scanner. Increasing this
delay will help host applications to process the incoming data on time.
Intercharacter Delay: is a time delay between data characters outputted by the Hand-held scanner. These two
parameters are used to synchronize data communication when: 1) the data transmission speed is too fast,
characters may be skipped; 2) multitasking operation system or host computers in a network may slow down
the keyboard handling; 3) various notebook or desktop PC systems require different timing parameter
settings. It is recommended to always add one extra unit as safety margin when adjusting these two
parameters.
Interfunction Delay: is a time delay of between transmission and reception of each segment of the message
string.
