RPS CARD HANDLER: USING DFIL.CMD

DESCRIPTION

This instruction sheet details the use of the DFIL.CMD which prepares a custom report for RPS, Inc. DFIL.CMD
generates a daily report on current tank balances and a transaction report for the site. Every Friday DFIL.CMD also
records pump meter readings. To run the command file, DFIL.CMD the Site Controller II must be running version 2.0 or
higher. DFIL.CMD does not support multi-hose dispensers.

INSTALLATION AND SETUP

Installing DFIL.CMD

DFIL.CMD must be installed in the root A:/BIN directory for floppy-based systems, or in the C:/BIN for hard-drive based
systems.

The product number must be the same number as the tank number, starting with tank and product number one. Before
running for the first time, delete all files in the D drive and make deliveries equal to the current tank readings.

DFIL.CMD Syntax

The syntax for DFIL.CMD is:

DFIL [output selection] [#_of_tanks] [#_of_pumps]

where:
[output selection] is either: C for CRT (terminal) or L for Logger (printer);
[#_of_tanks] is the number of tanks at the site;
[#_of_pumps] is the number of pumps at the site.

Customizing DFIL for a Specific Site

To make DFIL.CMD easy to use for a specific site, you may wish to change the default settings, so that no command line
arguments are required. Once you have customized DFIL.CMD, you can simply type DFIL to generate the reports.

To customize DFIL.CMD, use a text editor to make the following changes:

Output Selection
The default output device is L (logger). To change it to C for CRT, change the line:

set o = L to set o = C

Number of Tanks
The default # of tanks is 1. To change it to the number of tanks installed at the site (N), change the line:

set n = 1 to set n = N

Number of Pumps
The default # of pumps is 2. To change it to the number of pumps installed at the site (P), change the line:

set p = 2 to set p = P

NOTE: When changing the number of tanks or pumps, you have to delete the old D:INV.SAV file. First, print the file to get

the current inventory settings. Then delete the file (delete d:inv.sav).
