indicating success or failure or the job recall.

IMPORTANT: A job recalled from the network is independent of the same job number
recalled from regular internal job storage at the OmniLink. Make sure the job being
recalled is from the location intended!



8.5 Sending Tonnage Graphs from the OmniLink 5000 (Color OIT)

LinkNet has the ability to receive and display tonnage signatures from the OmniLink 5000 tonnage

monitor. To send a tonnage signature to LinkNet, take the following steps:

• From the main menu of the OmniLink OIT, hit the “TONNAGE MONITOR” softkey to enter the

tonnage monitor main screen.


• Hit the “GRAPH OPERATIONS” softkey to enter the tonnage monitor graph screen. Note that this

key will not be present while the press is running.


• Hit the “SEND GRAPH” key. A list of destinations will be displayed. This list will vary depending

on what options are enabled on the OmniLink 5000. With LinkNet enabled, three of the destinations
should be “Send To Network”, “Print To Network”, and “Archive To Network”.


• Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the “Send To Network” destination and hit the

“SELECT” softkey to send the signature to LinkNet. It will be displayed in a window automatically
at the LinkNet computer. It may then be viewed, saved, or printed. If the network is off line or not
configured this selection will not be present. The status of the transfer will be shown at the top of
the screen and an indication of success or failure will be made at the end of the transfer. Note that
depending on the number of machines connected and network load this operation can take more than
a minute.


• Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the “Print To Network” destination and hit the

“SELECT” softkey to automatically print a reference waveform to the configured printer (see
section 4.14 for details on this). If the network is off line or not configured this selection will not be
present. The status of the transfer will be shown at the top of the screen and an indication of success
or failure will be made at the end of the transfer. Note that depending on the number of machines
connected and network load this operation can take more than a minute.


• Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the “Archive To Network” destination and hit the

“SELECT” softkey to store the waveform in the database by machine number, job number, and
date/time of capture. If the network is off line or not configured this selection will not be present.
The status of the transfer will be shown at the top of the screen and an indication of success or
failure will be made at the end of the transfer. Note that depending on the number of machines
connected and network load this operation can take more than a minute.
