REASONABLE ODOMETER/HOURS
CHECK OPTION
DESCRIPTION
The Reasonable Odometer/Hours option provides an odometer or hours* validity check for a set
number of your vehicles/equipment (*NOTE: Reasonable hours is used when user equipment is
monitored with an hour meter instead of an odometer). The type of option, reasonable
odometer/hours, was determined when you ordered your system. Also, the exact number of
vehicles supported depends upon the limit specified when you ordered your system. Vehicles in
the system, but not in the vehicle file, are still permitted to fuel, however, odometer/hours entries
are not checked.
The reasonable odometer/hours option is similar to the L/100KM or LPH option without the
L/100KM or LPH features. To use the reasonable odometer/hours option, you enter information
on each of your vehicles into a vehicle record. These records are stored in a vehicle file.
For reasonable odometer, the vehicle record contains:
●
VEH
3- to 6-digit vehicle number
●
ODOM
up to 6-digit Odometer Entry
●
STAT
a special code indicating reasonable odometer comments
For reasonable hours, the vehicle record contains:
●
VEH
3- to 6-digit vehicle number
●
HOURS
up to 6-digit hours Entry
●
STAT
a special code indicating reasonable hours comments
For both types, when the system detects an odometer/hours entry, the vehicle number is checked
to see if it is in the vehicle file. If it is, the odometer/hours entry is checked for validity against the
last odometer/hours reading entered. It also considers the maximum kilometers/hours between
fuelings value (LM command). If an odometer/hours entry is out of range, the system prompts for
another entry.
If the odometer/hours entry is valid, fueling is allowed. When the transaction completes, the
system updates the ODOM or HOURS field in the vehicle record to show the latest
odometer/hours entry. The status flag may also change.
If the odometer/hours is invalid, the user is re-prompted. (You can indicate the number of entry
retries allowed using the SC command.) If the maximum number of retries is exceeded, the
transaction terminates and the vehicle record is not changed. The transaction is stored as a zero
quantity transaction (no fuel dispensed) and is tagged with an INVALID ODOM or INVALID
HOURS message.
At the termination of the first transaction, the user is prompted to enter his card again. The user
can enter any odometer/hours reading and fueling is allowed. When fueling is complete, a normal
transaction is recorded. The system updates the vehicle record by storing the odometer/hours
entry in the ODOM or HOURS field. The status flag may also change.
