appropiate box and press "enter". This will
then display the range of entries possible for that
box.
The system allows for the input of the time
of commencment of a trip. This is stored on the
database but the index of the database is recorded based
on the server time when the entry is written. This

"comments" box. Up to 20 characters can
be entered.

"Stored". If this does not appear DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
ENTER THE TRIP AGAIN until the "trips for the day"
have been checked from the "Show Trips for today" function.

a trip.
These routines are for testing
purposes only and should
not normally be used on mobile
