|
Require Silo / Bin |
Yes |
Prevents a ticket from being sent to Libra without a Bin ID (and therefore alias), which will prevent mistakes. |
|
Require Load Stations |
Yes |
Prevents a ticket from being sent to Libra without a Load Station (And therefore assign type), which will prevent mistakes. |
|
Error Template |
E |
Allows error tickets to be printed. Document Setup can be used to print tickets on error. This can be any letter other than A must match in Document Setup. |
|
Use Hold / Incomplete |
Yes |
Allows error tickets to be saved, so they can be cleared from the intermediate database. |

Allow Print Incomplete Tickets |
Yes |
Allows error tickets to be printed, so they can be cleared from the intermediate database. |
|
Repeat from Saved Tare-In Information |
Yes |
Allows Tkiscale to save information when sending a load to Libra, so that the operator does not have to key in every field of a ticket each time a vehicle is loaded. |
|
Have Valid Ticket Fields for Tare |
Yes |
This is so that the ‘Require’ settings also effect sending a vehicle to Libra. |
|
Comm. Method |
None |
This is set to none, as choosing another communication method will cause Auto ID to behave incorrectly |
|
Use Assign Loads |
No |
This setting typically stops a vehicle after a certain number of loads. This is not used in the Apex – Libra interface, so it is No |
|
Read ID as Alphanumeric |
Yes |
This allows the ID generated by the Apex – Libra interface to be read correctly |
|
Repeat Last Load |
Yes |
This allows Auto ID to pull the saved information from sending the load to Libra in order to print the correct information on the ticket |
