This system will operate on a standard PC computer and provide the required operator interface. Where required, data can be transferred to a data collection site at your office for additional processing. Files are stored locally to prevent data loss and to allow recall of stored information.

RAILCAR WEIGHT RECORDS - As railcars are weighed, the data including weight, time and date, car identification (when available), and status messages are automatically stored in WeighMasters weight data base. Though data files can be stored and processed without the intervention of a operator or trainman, this software was designed as the operator interface to the weighing system. It allows for collection, manual entry, manual correction, storage, and printing of critical information required for weight processing. The information created in the WeighMaster software provides the input to your car tracking and billing systems.

A car number for each car weighed is the key to further processing. The car number, if not obtained from an identification system, must be entered by the operator. Tare weights, when required, may be entered from stenciled information on the railcar or automatically recalled from stored data. Other data entered into the WeighMaster softwares weight data base provide product and railcar movement information about each car weighed. The system uses the collected information to produce a report of cars weighed. The reporting can include gross, tare, and net weight along with heel and heavy weight warnings.
