The Devices tab allows company administrators to manage ticketing devices in the field, including scale house PCs, mobile ticketing apps on tablets and smart phones, and unattended kiosks. Each device will be assigned an ID and PIN, and will be tied to a specific Locations.
Columns and Filters
The main Devices page allows you to view information about the deployed devices across your organization between the scale house, mobile devices, and unattended kiosks.
A device license can only be associated with one Location. If you are using Fast-Weigh on a scale house PC and an unattended kiosk, you will have two individual device licenses at one Location.
The licensed devices are separated above the columns on the main page by Scale House, Mobile, Proof of Delivery (POD), and Truck to easier manage between types of devices.
When reviewing your devices, the header columns provide a snapshot of the associated devices with the input information, and information Fast-Weigh creates, such as the App Version, Last Use Date, and the device OS Version.

When settings up a new device, you will click the above +New Device button on the Devices screen. There are +New Device buttons available across each tab, so please ensure you are creating the device under the correct device type.
In the new window, you will enter the device info and set the device to Active, then click Update. Please refer to the column list above for the entry fields shown in this window.
The configuration tab will show the saved configuration the Fast-Weigh application is using. This window does not allow edits to be made and only acts as a visual aid for the Fast-Weigh application settings. This is also device specific so it is best practice to periodically save the configuration in the event a device needs to be updated or replaced.
Configurations can be saved and loaded with the assistance of the Fast-Weigh Support team. Please contact us if you are unsure if setting changes have been made or if there seems to be an issue with the existing settings.
Although the column is unmarked, you can adjust the active UDFs used on this device after setting them up in the User Defined Fields menu. Clicking the Used box will activate the UDF on the associated device.
If a device information needs to be adjusted or removed, clicking Edit and Delete will allow you to accomplish this change. Any edits made to the device will be applied when clicking Update. Deleting the device will prompt you to confirm this action.
