5.3 Keyboard emulation speed

The barcode upload process can stress the host and, depending on the host type, the below barcodes may be necessary.

Indeed, the Plug&Scan USB dongle emulates a Keyboard. Thus, it has to send characters with a minor delay between them. If the delay is too short or if the host is too slow or too busy to process the incoming characters, some data can be lost by the host.

To avoid that phenomenon, the Plug&Scan USB can handle different keyboard emulation speeds:

Keyboard emulation speed: SLOW	Keyboard emulation speed: VERY SLOW
Inter-character delay = 40ms	Inter-character delay = 80ms

Keyboard emulation speed: SLOW	Keyboard emulation speed: MEDIUM (*)
Inter-character delay = 20ms	Inter-character delay = 16ms

Keyboard emulation speed: HIGH

Inter-character delay = 8ms
