Terminal

The ALS multi-function terminals are used to record data on 'manual work places' and machines, which are linked to the ALS through contacts (ARBURG I/O) or software (MANUAL INPUT).

'Add new/edit terminal' dialog'

When you add a new terminal, you allocate a unique Terminal number in the range of 1 to 999 to the terminal. This number identifies the terminal in ALS. In the 'Description' box you enter a few key words describing which work places are connected through the terminal or where each terminal is located.

For each terminal the Document administration is available, so that you can store all necessary documents in ALS.
