To avoid data entry / assignment mistakes, the new Handheld supports the scanning of a barcode, to allocate either Counted Cash and / or Meter Entries, against a Machine.
If you are not able to readily generate barcodes with Machine Reference’s encoded into them, following the below procedure with the attached supporting documents, will assist;
- Download and extract the attached Barcode Font file
- Double click on the extracted .ttf file to install it
- Download the attached Handheld Word Template
- Open the Handheld Word Template file in Microsoft Word
- Edit each barcode to a valid Machine Ref, exactly how it appears in Quantum, with the addition of a leading and trailing asterix. As an example… Machine Reference: 123456 would need to be input as *123456*
- A text entry field, such as the Machine Name, can be added under each barcode
- Print off the Document, on A4 Avery L7159 paper
- Afix the barcode label, on the corresponding machine
