Function Code Transmit
By default, all ASCII control characters are transmitted with bar code data. These
non-printable characters are translated into predefined key strokes, or CTRL+X
functions (see ASCII Conversion Chart (Code Page 1252), beginning on page 298).
If these key strokes interfere with your host’s software application, scan Disable to
keep these ASCII control characters from being transmitted. Default = Enable.
Note: You can also use a custom data format (see Data Format beginning on page 131) to
translate these characters into a more meaningful output.
Intercharacter, Interfunction, and Intermessage Delays
Some terminals drop information (characters) if data comes through too quickly.
Intercharacter, interfunction, and intermessage delays slow the transmission of
data, increasing data integrity.
Intercharacter Delay
An intercharacter delay of up to 5000 milliseconds (in 5ms increments) may be
placed between the transmission of each character of scanned data. Scan the
Intercharacter Delay bar code below, then scan the number of 5ms delays from
the Programming Chart, beginning on page 309, then Save.
