2.4.4 Cubetape Shipper (Ship) Instructions
Introduction
The workflow or task SHIP provides an on-line connection with a host, sending data in
real time using a Bluetooth connection.
The Measure button, (on the side) will record the length from the tape and send it
(followed by a tab) via Bluetooth to a connected host The Bluetooth on this device is
setup to use the HID profile, meaning the data is sent to the foreground application
running on a host (typically a PC, PDA, iPad, Phone etc.) The device will need to be
paired to a host system before use. Also the Parceltools Cradle can be used for this
functionality.
If using an iPad as a demo host, the right arrow
acts as a keyboard escape key -
pressing it when connected will display or hide the iPad on screen keyboard. This is
useful if you need to enter alpha text as well as transfer barcode and dimensional
information.
The Cubetape has an inbuilt Dim Weight calculator. Pressing the down arrow
once, will display the Dim Weight for a domestic shipment (using factor 166) for the last
3 measurements, and pressing down arrow again, will display Dim Weight for an export
shipment (using factor 139).
Some customers have discounted conversion factors and the value of the conversion
factor[s] can be adjusted from the settings menu. To do this hold

select
settings and use the
