Scan To Slot

Scanning Volumes To Slots Using Zone, Slot and Volume Barcodes

This method relies on both the zones and slots being barcoded. Further information on printing barcodes can be found here.

From the customer tree right click required customer/s and select Add to load volumes into To Scan window.

Once all volumes required have been added to the To Scan window, select ProcessSpecial OperationsScan To Slot from the main menu to open the scan window.

Enter the number 2 into the scan window to set scan mode to Zone, slot and volume.

Scan Zone barcode and Slot barcode and then the Volume barcode.

Checkpoint will now ask you to confirm the slot and volume by rescanning the volume barcode. If the same volume barcode is scanned the volume will be allocated to that slot.

While still allocating volumes in the selected zone, subsequent scans only require scanning the next slot and volume and then scanning the volume again to confirm the slot allocation.

Scanning to slot only allocates the volumes to the selected slots, volumes will still need to be scanned into the repository/slots to confim the volumes to that location.
