Set up Manifest Processor options to define the network host and Eterm terminal to which Manifest Processor needs to communicate, along with the amount of time it tries to contact the host before timing out.
In addition, define scanning resolution requirements of manifests, as well as storage options for manifest signature files.
To set up Manifest Processor Options:
Display the Eclipse - Manifest Processor window on your terminal.
From the Tools menu, select Options to display the Manifest Processor - Options window.
In the Eclipse Host area of the window, populate the following fields:
Field |
Description |
Eclipse Host |
The network host to which you are uploading signatures. To access the host name, from Eterm select the Configure > Communications menu to display the Configure Communications window. The host name is displayed in the Host field. |
Service Port |
The network host port. To find the host port, display the Phantom Status screen. The port number is displayed in the Status field. |
Terminal ID |
The ID of the Eterm terminal on which the Manifest Processor application is installed. To access the Eterm terminal ID, from Eterm select the Configure > Communications menu to display the Configure Communications window. The ID is displayed in the ID field. |
Click the Test Connection button to make sure that the Manifest Processor is communicating correctly with the host.
If you set up communications correctly, the system prompts you with "Got reply, connection OK for processing." Click the OK button to continue.
If you set up communications incorrectly, the system prompts you with "Test connection attempt unsuccessful: Could not connect to xxx." Click the OK button to return to the Manifest Processor - Options window and re-enter the Eclipse host information.
Option |
Description |
Delete successfully processed files |
After a signature file has been processed and attached to its invoice, deletes it from the Manifest Processor directory in which it was stored. |
Use faster (but less accurate) barcode scanning |
Allows you to scan in manifests at a resolution lower than 600 x 600 dots-per-inch (dpi) resolution in order to process signature files more quickly. Note: If you select this option, signature files may not be processed or attached to invoices as accurately as if they had been scanned at a 600 x 600 dpi resolution. |
Use persistent socket services |
Uses socket communications to connect to the host. Note: We recommend that you select this option. |
In the Network Timeout field, drag the button to define the number of seconds that the Manifest Processor application will try to contact the host before timing out.
Click the OK button to save the settings and exit the window.
