3.5.1 Setting Delay Time
The
delaytime
of
preset
80
is
1023
milliseconds
(1.023
seconds)
and
we
will
assume
that
you
want
to
decrease
this
to
make
a
shorter

delay
time,
say
400
mS.

Using
the
<UP>/<DOWN>
keys
In the DELAY section you must press one of the
|
Yigg

Now
by
pressing

the

decreases a ‘step’ (1 millisecond = 1/1000
second). Holding the <DOWN> key the value will

continue decreasing as long as you hold or until 'O'

Similarly pressing <UP> increases step-wise when

Using the Numeric Keyboard KEYBOARD
You may find it valuable and faster to use the numeric
keyboard to change to a specific delaytime. As soon as
one of the DELAY <UP>/<DOWN> keys are pressed the
green LED above starts blinking, showing that the
numeric keyboard is available for this function.
So instead of holding the <UP>/<DOWN> keys, you can
enter an exact value on the numeric keyboard.
For
example
to
change
to
400
mS
delaytime
:

Press : ; Comments:
<DELAY UP> ; tells 2290 that the Numeric
Keyboard is wanted for this
function’.
> Green LED starts blinking, to show ‘keyboard available’

:
Now
enter
the
delaytime
wanted
on
the
Numeric
Keyboard,
> the Delaytime Display shows what you are entering.
<ENTER> - The moment you press <ENTER> the value is accepted.
The
green
LED
continues
blinking
indicating
that
the
numeric
keyboard
is
still
available
for
the
delaytime
setting,
so
you
could
enter
another
value,
terminated
by
<ENTER>
if you wanted.
For now let's stick to the '400mS' setting so that we're talking about the
same ‘sound’ as we continue.
