Wedge Quiet Interval
Product Reference Guide 79
Wedge Quiet Interval
This option specifies the amount of time to look for keyboard activity before the read-
er 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 barcode to enter Program-
ming Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT WEDGE QUIET INTERVAL SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix E, Keypad , that rep-
resent 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 barcode to exit Program-
ming Mode.
This completes the procedure to set the Wedge Quiet Interval. See Table 14 for some
examples of how to set this feature.

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.
