How to trigger a split weigh transaction for existing vehicle
If a weighbridge is to small to capture the complete weight of a load it is possible for the system to automatically capture 2 weights and combine them for a summed amount. To do this the system must be configured correctly and the specific vehicles involved need to a have data setup against them in the system.
This lesson assumes that the system has been configured correctly and the vehicle data is setup correctly. Refer to this vehicle management manual for details on how to setup a vehicle ready for split weighs.

First part of split weigh
Bring vehicle on to the bridge for the first part of the weigh.
Note: *** The vehicle must be on the weighbridge before starting a split weigh transaction. ***
Start a transaction
Start a transaction by selecting the vehicle from the vehicle list.
Select all transaction data
Collect all data required to complete the transactions
Trigger the split weigh process
Click on the store (or print button if stored tares available or this is the outbound weigh)
Prompt for split weigh
A prompt will be displayed advising that the vehicle should move forwards to the second position.
Split weigh complete
The system will automatically capture the summed weights once the weight is stables for a period of time. If no stored tare is available then the vehicle will appear in the out list.
Capturing the tare either from the outbound screen or the manual retare option will follow the same process for requesting split weights.
