Description While a POS terminal sends a packet in asynchronous mode, the POSPAD does not
know when the transmission is complete. Therefore, you need to set a wait timer for
the POSPAD. Upon expiration of this timer, the POSPAD considers that the
transmission is complete and begins to receive the packet.
The setting of this timer depends on packet length. Normally, the default setting is
adequate.
