Terminal DX software provides a simple easy-to-use control interface to the modern bulk facility. With this powerful software package one person may control multiple measuring and mixing systems, from a single computer with the ability to dispense to any number of locations such as truck loading bays, blenders and shuttle filling areas. Once an order is complete transaction information is stored on the computer and a ticket is printed. Transaction information can be accessed at a later date and may be exported for use in other software applications. Terminal DX also provides the ability to create, store and use recipes that are automatically scaled for any requested quantity. Recipe details can be included or concealed on transaction tickets. Four measuring or mixing systems may be controlled through Terminal DX.*
User Friendly
Terminal DX utilizes a simple easy-to-use prompt interface. The user is prompted for information as it is needed. Orders are created by selecting products (or functions) and their corresponding quantities. As orders are created a list of products (and functions) is shown to aid the user.

| One of the most powerful features of Terminal DX is its recipe capabilities. Using Terminal DX the user can create, store and utilize recipes. Recipes are based on a ratio system.
Example Recipe:

| Product #2 |
40.0% |
| Product #3 |
29.5% |
| Product #4 |

When this recipe is selected in an order the quantity requested for the recipe will be divided up among the ingredients based on their percentages. If the request for the recipe were 400lbs the quantity of each product would be as follows:
| Product |
Percentage |
Request |
| Product #1 |
20.0% |
80 lbs |
| Product #2 |
40.0% |
160 lbs |
| Product #3 |
29.5% |
118 lbs |
| Product #4 |
10.5% |
42 lbs |
| Total |
100.0% |
400 lbs |

Transaction Data
Since transaction data is stored on the computer a ticket may be reprinted at any time. Transaction data is stored in a database that may be accessed for the creation of specialized reports. Information from the database may also be exported to a comma-delimited file that is usable by many popular spreadsheet applications.
