Note: You may not have the capability to change some of these settings - if it is necessary, you should contact your support team to get these changed.

Default Site

If this device is permanently based at one depot, you can set the default site to that depot. When set, the device will automatically default to this depot when logging on so that you do not have to select the site each time.

Session Time Out

The session time out can be set here. If there is a period of inactivity that exceeds this setting, the application will lock the device. When you next use the device and click the screen, the application will prompt you to login again through the Login screen.

Retry Limit

Some messages are queued to be sent to your TMS, to make sure that you can continue working on CALIDUS MCS without interruption. If a message fails to be sent back to the CALIDUS TMS from CALIDUS MCS, this option indicates how may times the application will retry before failing. Any queued messages can be seen in the Update Queue screen and any failed messages (or retries) can be seen on the Error Log screen.
