Using the ShipperXL Kiosk

Our kiosk software connects to commercial truck scales to automatically read weights. This simplifies procedures allowing:

Inbound trucks simply enter their truck number
Upon return, they can scale out and print a weight ticket
Container loading is done by scanning work orders
Work orders are automatically timestamped finished.

If you have one or two cameras pointing at your scale, a copy of the picture can be taken simultaneously and attached to the scale ticket.

These features virtually eliminate errors transcribing weights from physical tickets.

Requirements:

See Hardware and Supplies for details.

Inbound Load with prepared Work Order

Enter the work order number (or scan it)
Enter the manifest number
Enter the number of bales received
Record the weight
Tags will print from the "labels" printer attached to the Kiosk
** UNLOAD **
Enter the work order number (or scan it)
Record the weight or print the ticket

The image and weight captured when you press RECORD is whatever you are seeing on the screen at the time you press the button.

When weighing, the weight will be in green when the weight is stable. Wind or movement on the scale can cause it to fluctuate. Try and press the RECORD button only when the weight is GREEN.

Inbound Load with pre-printed tags

Scan one of the pre-printed tags
Record the weight

Multi-weight mode:

For short scales that require multiple weights, this can be configured using the Scales screen in Shipper.

For the FIRST weight, press RECORD.

For the SECOND weight press RECORD.
