Overview
Description
Instances where a count is needed, but there is no ability to pull a count from a Machine, you would need a Virtual Count. This type of count is a manual entry interface. Virtual Counts added to a TIM or PSM are different from other modules. The button will show on the left side of the touch screen as a circle.
Operation
An operator would touch the count button to increase the count by 1. Below the active process, there is a count tally shown.
Additional Information
A Virtual Count can only be added as a subordinate/child of a Process


Requirements
See Requirements Here
1. The VT3000 Core Software installed and running on your system.
2. A Coordinator must be setup, powered and communicating with the VT3000 Core Software.
3. Hardware - TIM or PSM must be powered and communicating with the system.
4. A Process must be programmed/added to the device configuration.
