Database Management
This screen allows you to transfer completed transaction
files to and retrieve updated data base from the office
computer.
To access Database Management:
Data (F5) from Data Application (pg 11) or Driver
Logon (pg 14)
OR
Save (F5) from Log Off/Shift Information (pg 32)
SEND TRANSACTIONS TO OFFICE
Sends completed transaction files to the office computer.
This is typically done at the end of a shift but can be
done as often as required. While the system transfers
the transaction file (CompTran.trn) to the USB flash
memory, a status indicator will appear and indicate the
progress of the file transfer (4:2). As this file is sent, the
transaction records are automatically appended to an
archive file (CompTran.tra) in the DMS. This archive file
will grow indefinitely until deleted by the LCP File Server
application.
RETRIEVE DATABASE FROM OFFICE
Copies all files from the USB flash memory bearing the
file extension “.slf” (database files) to the DMS internal
flash memory. Like Send Transactions to Office, a
transfer status indicator will display the progress of the
file during download.
The USB memory device should not be removed
while sending or receiving data. If inserted while
the DMS Module is on, open the Database
Management screen and refresh the USB memory
device USB (F3).
