SmartScan Model 2400 Portable AEI Reader Figure 10 - Manual Entry Dialog To display the keyboard, tap the white keyboard icon in the bottom right corner. Tapping this icon a second time will cause the keyboard to disappear. The vehicle initial can either be selected from a list of previously entered initials in the Vehicle Initial field's pull down list (which appears when you tap on the down triangle located on the right side of the Vehicle Initial field), or a new initial can be typed in using the keyboard. To enter a new initial, tap on the keyboard icon located near the bottom right of the screen. This will cause a keyboard to be displayed. Tap on the characters of the new name. After you have entered a new initial, this new initial will appear in the Vehicle Initial's pull down list when the dialog is displayed again. A default vehicle initial can be set by going to the Default Values dialog (see Paragraph 5.4). The Vehicle Number field must contain between 1 to 6 digits to be accepted. The portable reader will insert any leading zeroes. Numbers can be quickly entered into this field by tapping the number buttons under this field. It is not necessary to tap on the Vehicle Number field prior to tapping on these number buttons. The Vehicle Type can be either Locomotive or Railcar and is selected from this field's pull down list. When the OK button is tapped, the screen shown in Figure 11 will be displayed. 12 August 15, 2008
SmartScan Model 2400 Portable AEI Reader Figure 11 - Manually Entered Vehicle Display This display shows that a vehicle's data was manually entered and the time the entry occurred. As with vehicles entered via tag reads, manually entered vehicle information can be included in track inventory and can be sent to other systems via the internet. 3. ADDITIONAL DATA FIELDS When a vehicle is entered into the portable reader via an AEI tag read or manual entry, additional data can be entered about the vehicle and passed to other systems (only in a text file format, T94 does not support these additional data fields). The additional data fields are broken down into three categories. These are: • Vehicle comments • System defined fields such as maintenance, status and consist • User defined fields There are two methods for entering data into these fields. Data can be entered manually through a group of displays or entered via barcodes (if the portable reader is equipped with an optional barcode reader). For more information about entering information via barcodes go to Paragraph 5.15. To manually enter information about a rail vehicle into these fields, tap the Menu button on the screen. This will cause a pop-up menu to be displayed (see Figure 7). Select the appropriate menu item for the type of additional data to be entered. 13 August 15, 2008
