1. System Setup

Before scanning, configure your dashboard:

1. Open the Dashboard and go to the Admin > General tab.

   Set Device Settings:

   • Max Totes per Bin: Set to 24 (or your preferred limit).
   • Enable NFC Scanner Mode.
   • Scan to Add Buckets: Set to "Yes."
   • Consecutive Delay: Set to prevent duplicate scans (e.g., 120 seconds in real-world use).
2. Save Settings.

2. Assigning, Reassigning, and Removing Wristbands

Assign a Wristband:

1. Open the Pickers Page in the Hectre app.
2. Tap the Scan (NFC) Button at the bottom right.
3. Hold the wristband to the back of your device.
4. Assign it to a picker (e.g., Adrian B).
5. The wristband is now linked to the picker.

Reassign a Wristband:

1. Tap Scan (NFC) Button.
2. Scan the wristband.
3. Tap Reassign Scanned and select a new picker.
4. The wristband is now assigned to the new picker.

Remove a Wristband:

1. Go to the Pickers Page and select the wristband.
2. Tap Delete.
3. The wristband is now unassigned and ready for reuse.

3. Scanning Pickers into Bins

Create a Bin:

1. Go to Bins Page and tap Add (+).
2. Enter Location, Block, and Pick Type.
3. The bin is now created.

Scan Pickers into Bins:

1. Tap Scan a Picker.
2. Hold the wristband to the back of your device.
3. Picker's tote is added to the bin.
4. If a picker scans too soon, it will be blocked based on the set delay.

• If he attempts another scan before the delay period, it is blocked.
• Luke B can scan his tote into the same bin after reassigning the wristband.
