    CODE SPEED DEFINITION

    1. Speed Standards
    a. Character, and Word Speeds.

    Normally, the spacing between characters is sent at the same speed as the character elements. However, when the Farnsworth method is used, the spacing between characters is sent at a slower speed than the characters themselves. CODE-T provides a teaching method to help you learn the code by using a modified version of the Farnsworth method. Code-T sends all letters at a code speed of 13 words per minute. The space between each characters is at a rate equal to 5 words per minute.

    The method will help the average student to learn the code in less time than use code tape and record that send code at a continuous 5 WPM or 13 WPM.

    CALIBRATION

    This version of Code-T does not allow the use to alter the speed of the code. However the program is designed to produce the same results on any computer.
