DC-401 device is no longer available for purchase. It has been replaced by DC-420, which offers the same features and functionality. Since both models are identical from the user experience and UI part, they will be collectively referred to as the DC-400 series.
The DC-400 series device can interface with the following ATG systems to facilitate live CStoreOffice® fuel reading polling:
- Gilbarco Veeder Root TLS-300, TLS-350, and TLS400+.
- Incon Tank Sentinel TS-750 and TS-1001.
Must be set to Veeder Root mode and restarted.
In addition, DC-400 series device can connect using one of the options below:
- The Tank Monitor System has a TCP/IP card that currently part of a network reachable by DC box.
- The Tank Monitor System has an available RS-232 serial communications port not in use.
Only DC 400 series support the RS-232 interface.
