Step-by-Step Guide to Using the PLC Application for Data Entry
Log in with the credentials supplied by a supervisor or coordinator. After entering the username and password, the processing screen of the PLC application appears, ready for data entry.
Processing Screen Layout
The screen is divided into two sections.
- Right side – Shows the snippet, the keying field, Accept and Reject buttons, and the field sequence.
- Left side – Displays the full image from which the snippet is taken. The portion of the full image that must be keyed is highlighted in yellow.
Data Entry Workflow
- Locate the yellow‑highlighted area on the left‑hand image.
- View the matching snippet on the right side.
- Type the data shown in the snippet into the keying field.
- Press Enter to move to the next field.
Autopopulated fields
- If the autopopulated value matches the snippet, press Enter to accept it.
- If the autopopulated value is incorrect, overwrite it with the snippet data and press Enter.
Empty or missing data
- When no data appears in either the snippet or the keying field, press Enter to accept the empty entry and continue.
Illegible data
- If the data is unclear or unreadable in both the snippet and the full image, press Ctrl + Enter to reject the field.
Exiting the Application
Click the human‑shaped icon located in the top‑right corner of the screen. From the dropdown menu, select the logout option to close the PLC application.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you handle autopopulated fields that contain incorrect data?
When an autopopulated field does not match the snippet, overwrite the field with the correct snippet data and then press Enter to move on. This ensures the entry reflects the accurate information from the source image.
What shortcut is used to reject a field with illegible data?
Press Ctrl + Enter to reject a field when the data is unclear or illegible in both the snippet and the full image. This action records the rejection and advances the workflow to the next field.
