| This
option automates the production of flight
progress strips, automatically selecting
the strip format depending on the type of
flight (Inbound/Arrival, Outbound/Departure,
Local/Training or Transit/En-Route) and
using the Flight Movements Database to fill
in the known flight details allowing the
strip to be used as quickly as possible
after printing. |

The
system supports multiple printers (e.g. tower and approach)
using the preferred thermal type printers that are virtually
silent in operation and have no consumable ink ribbons
or cartridges. Strips can be printed immediately on
demand and at a given interval prior to the anticipated
movement using customised strip layouts. Both this time
interval and the strip design are configurable for the
different movement types, which can also determine which
printer(s) the strip is directed to. The configuration
option includes defining the box sizes, any standard
text in each box, and the variable data that is to be
inserted in each box. Control over font size is also
provided. |
