The drive on delay value (in seconds) is used to time out unattended operations. It controls how
long the program will wait for a truck to drive on the scale after the trucks badge id has been
verified. It is also the maximum amount of time the program will wait for a driver to respond to a
prompt or for the scale weight to stabilize.
RTSA / PDC Options (Auto Return to Unattended)
Check this box to automatically return to unattended mode after a attended transaction has been
processed.
RTSA / PDC Options (Update Tare)
This is a key sequence that when entered by the truck driver in response to any prompt will update
the truck tare weight and cancel the transaction in process. This only works if the truck is allowed
to update its tare weight in unattended mode.
RTSA / PDC Options (Cancel)
This is a key sequence that when entered by the truck driver in response to any prompt will restart
the transaction by prompting the driver reswipe or reenter his badge id.
RTSA / PDC Options (No Response)
This is a key sequence that designates no response to a prompt.
RTSA / PDC Options (Dir Change Preamble)
It may be necessary to process transactions in unattended mode where the material direction is
not the default direction (incoming or outgoing). If the truck weighs in and weighs out the direction
is determined from the two weights. However, if stored tare weights are used, this is no longer
possible. You can set a key sequence that when entered in front of the material code will set the
material direction to the opposite of the default direction.
This is typically used for returned materials. For example, if this value is 888 and the driver is
returning washed sand (material code 100), he would enter 888100 in response to the material
code prompt.
RTSA / PDC Options (Drive Off Code)
Enter the material code that will be attached to transactions that are recorded in the database
when a truck drives across the scale without stopping or fails to complete the responses to all the
unattended prompts. You can add a special material type called "Drive Off" for this purpose. A
transaction is only generated if the truck's badge id has been verified before the drive off.
RTSA / PDC Options (Log Terminal Messages)
When this box is checked, all unattended communications with the data terminal are recorded in a
file called error.log and placed in the application's Log folder. Buttons are provided to view and
clear this log.
Auto Touch Options (Touch Screen)
Check this box to display a numeric keyboard and navigation controls on the Auto-Touch Weigh
screen. This screen may also be used in applications where a touch screen monitor is not
available (e.g. a numeric key pad is being used instead). In these cases, a keyboard and
