CHAPTER 8 COMMUNICATION TRACE EXAMPLE

The following is an example of a typical communication session with MultiLoad starting with host system
startup, driver card in, transaction authorization, batch authorization, end of batch processing, and host system
shutdown.
Upon startup it is recommended that the host system verify as many parameters as practical to avoid
problems during loading due to mis-configuration. If any parameters are different then expected the
discrepancy should be logged and startup should be aborted. Recommended parameters to check are:
Firmware Version
Configured bit is set.
Remote Processing is enabled.
Number of configured presets.
Number of meters, components and additives for all presets.
