Program Works~70

The last three entries on the menu are for use in setting up C.A.R. to work
with non-USA currency.  If you live in the USA, you can just let them be.

See the Users Manual for details.  C.A.R. needs to know three things:

The entry for ~;0Currency Symbol~70 is the one or two characters that
C.A.R. will place in front of money amounts you enter.  For example, in the USA
we use dollars, which is the ~;0$~70 symbol.  A 12 dollar expense would be shown
as ~;0$~7012.00.  Enter the one or two characters for your currency.

The entry for ~;0Fractional Currency Symbol~70 is the one or two characters that
C.A.R. will use when displaying your costs of operation per ^07.
For example, in the USA our smaller unit of currency is the Cent (100 Cents =
1 Dollar), and the symbol is ~;0¢~70.  If you used this symbol and it cost 6.5 cents
for fuel for every kilometer you drove, your fuel cost would be 6.5 ~;0¢~70/K
(cents per kilometer).  Enter the one or two characters for your currency.

The entry for ~;0Currency Divider~70 is how many of the Fractional Currency
Symbol make up the Currency Symbol.  For example, in the USA ~;0100~70 cents
make up one dollar.  Enter the number for your currency.

Push these keys for these symbols:  [F5] ~;0¢~70@04[F6] ~;0£~70@04[F7] ~;0¥~70@04[F8] ~;0₧~70                                                                                                                                                                       ~90Set Default Values~70

If you wish, you can have certain items pre-entered for you on new log entry
forms, things that are often the same time after time, by making entries here.
This is called a ~;0default~70.  For example, if you always buy the same brand
of fuel, you could have this brand already entered when you record a fuel
purchase.  You are not forced to use it, however, and can always change it to
what you want.

If you put a "Y" next to ~;0Use Today's Date~70, the current date will appear
as the date entry on new log entry forms.

If you enter a number for ~;0New ^03 Adder~70, then that number will be added to
the ^03 value entered when making a ~;0new~70 entry to the log.
This is useful if your ^03 was replaced (enter the ^01 at replacement)
or if the ^03 "turned over" (enter 100,000, etc.).

If you make an entry for ~;0Backup Directory~70 then both C.A.R. files for
the current ^10 will be copied to that directory when the program is
exited using ~;0[Ctrl+Q]~70.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              E~90Change How The C.A.R. Program Works~70

If ~;0Y~70 is entered for ~;0Force Mono Display~70, the program will make itself viewable
  on a Monochrome monitor even if a color card (CGA, EGA, or VGA) is sensed.
If ~;0Y~70 is entered for ~;0Don't Use Blue Text~70, the program will not use
  ~90blue text~70 for headings and other uses.  This is useful for those users
  whose monitors do not produce readable blue text, and to eliminate underlined
  text on Mono Displays.

If ~;0Y~70 is entered for ~;0Epson Compatible Printer~70, the program will send
  commands like bold print that only Epson compatible printers understand.
  Set this to ~;0N~70 if you get messed up printouts and don't own an Epson.
If ~;0Y~70 is entered for ~;0Print Line Dwg Characters~70, the program
  will print forms and logs using the ~;0┌──────┬──────┐~70 characters.
  Set this to ~;0N~70 if italic characters appear on printed reports.
Enter the ~;0Printer~70 you want printed output to go to: LPT1, LPT2, or PRN.

If ~;0Y~70 is entered for ~;0European Dates~70, the program will display and
  accept dates only in the DD/MM/YY (Day/Month/Year) format.
If ~;0Y~70 is entered for ~;0European Values~70, the program will display and
  accept numbers in the "European" format, example: ~;01.234.567,89~70
@49vs.~;01,234,567.89~70
Enter either ~;0/~70 or ~;0.~70 for ~;0Date Seperator~70 depending on how you want to
  enter and display dates, ~;011/12/91~70 or ~;011.12.91~70.                                             í;~90Add/Insert Entry to Log~70

To add or insert an entry in the log, select the type of entry from the list
by pushing the letter or number listed before it.

If you select ~;0PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE~70, you will be asked to select a
specific Preventative Maintenance item from a second list.

Press the ~;0[Esc]~70 key if you don't want to add anything to the log.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              ç~90Select P.M.

The entry you just made or edited appears to be out of sequence either by
date or by ^03 reading (as specified in the warning message).

If the entry has a date, look to see if an entry with an earlier date follows
it, or an entry with a later date precedes it.

If the entry has an ^03 reading, look to see if an entry with a lower
reading follows it, or an entry with a higher reading precedes it.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        tw~90Edit/Add Log Entry~70

Most items are optional and may be left blank, except:

  ∙ An entry must have at least a ~;0date~70 or an ~;0^03~70 reading.

  ∙ Certain items must have an ~;0^03~70 reading, such as a P.M. item that is
@04scheduled by ^03.

  ∙ Certain items must have a ~;0date~70, such as a P.M. item that is scheduled by
@04^04s.

  ∙ ^02 of fuel must be supplied for fuel purchases.  ~;0Always~70 enter ~;0Y~70 for
@04~;0Fill-up~70 if you did fill up the tank.  If the ^03 reading is entered
@04for Fillups, ^06 fuel economy will be calculated.
@04If the ^06 calculation would be wrong because of missed fuel purchase
@04log entries, enter ~;0Y~70 for the ~;0Skip Calculation~70 entry.
@04Leaving it blank is the same as entering "N".

  ∙ Dates must be entered in ~;0MM/DD/YY~70 format, examples: 12/25/88 2/4/85
@04(If European date mode is selected, use ~;0DD/MM/YY~70 format)
@04(If the date separator is set to ~;0.~70 then ~;0MM.DD.YY~70 or ~;0DD.MM.YY~70)

  ∙ Do not put ~;0^14~70 in front of amounts you enter.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       ∙~90Statistics~70

This screen shows a list of all of the Preventative Maintenance items and
Inspections that are scheduled for your ^10, along with how often they
are due and when they are next due.

If you have a color display the items will be colored based on when they are
next due, and based on how many days in advance you have asked C.A.R. to
remind you. This is typically 30 days in advance for 1st Reminder, 7 days in
advance for 2nd Reminder.  See ~;0Set How Many Days-In-Advance Warnings Will
~;0be Given~70 on ~;0Change Setups~70 menu to set them to different values.
The colors are ~?01st Reminder~70, ~>02nd Reminder~70, ~<0Overdue~70.

A first reminder is not given for things done once a month.
Monochrome displays will show soon due and overdue entries as ~?0intensified~70.

If an item is scheduled only by ^03 readings, estimated future ^03
readings will be used to see if a reminder is due.

The next due date and/or ^03 is based on the last time something was
performed.  If it never has been, it is based on when the ^10 was built.

A similar display results from running C.A.R. with the "/PM" option.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          ÜF~90A - Add New Log Entry at End~70

Press the ~;0[A]~70 key to add a new log entry at the end of the log.  This
is used when you want to add a new entry to the log, something that you just
did - something that happened after everything else already in the log.

If you want to add an entry to the log that belongs somewhere in the middle
and not on the end, press ~;0[I]~70 for the Insert function instead.  You can use
the Add function instead and Sort the log, but this may be time consuming.

A customized entry form will be displayed to be filled out.  When done, push
the ~;0[F10]~70 key to save the new Entry.  If you do not want the new Entry,
and wish to discard the entry, push the ~;0[Esc]~70 key instead.

When you add a Fuel Entry, the fuel usage will be recorded and the ^06
calculated if it was a fill-up and an odometer is supplied.

When you add an Inspection or P.M. entry, next due dates & ^03s will be
updated.

If the ~;0New ^03 Adder~70 entry of the ~;0Defaults Menu~70 is nonzero, the entry
will be added to the ^03 reading you entered (with a low beep).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        ~90I - Insert New Log Entry Just Before the Highlight~70

Press the ~;0[I]~70 key to insert a new entry in the log just before the
~07highlighted~70 entry.  This is used when you want to add an "old" entry to the
log, something that happened a while back and belongs somewhere in the middle
or beginning of the log.  Move the ~07highlight~70 to where the entry you are
adding belongs and push ~;0[I]~70.

If you want to add a brand new entry to the log, one that belongs at the end,
you can press ~;0[A]~70 for the Add function instead.

A customized entry form will be displayed, and it should be filled out.  When
done, push the ~;0[F10]~70 key to save the new Entry.  If you do not want the
new Entry, and wish to discard the entry, push the ~;0[Esc]~70 key instead.

When you insert a Fuel, Inspection or P.M. entry, next due dates & ^03s
or ^06's may become incorrect.  The Sort function should be used to
correct any possible problems.  A reminder will be given by the program.

If the ~;0New ^03 Adder~70 entry of the ~;0Defaults Menu~70 is nonzero, the entry
will be added to the ^03 reading you entered (with a low beep).

Most of the time, you will only add items to a log, and the log file (.CAR
file) will grow with each new entry.

When you delete an entry from the log, the size of the log file does not
automatically shrink.  This is not normally a problem, as the space will be
used by the next entry added.

If you should delete a large number of log entries and want the log file to
be as small as it can be, select this entry from the menu and press ~;0[Y]~70
to continue.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       hE~90X - Switch to a Different Log~70

be shown in the log entry on the main log screen.

All blanks that you mark ~;0Y~70 for ~;0Cost~70 will be added up and entered into
the log as the cost for the custom Entry.
If all blanks are marked ~;0N~70 then a single cost for the Entry will entered
at the top of the entry form in the usual way.

To change the name of a Custom Entry, or the labels for the entry blanks,
just change them on this screen.

To delete a Custom Entry, just blank out its name.

Each ^10 or Machine has its own set of Custom Entries.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   ┼~90Select Log Type~70

When you ask C.A.R. when Preventative Maintenance items and Inspections are
next due, the list will be color coded or coded by intensity.

If you have a color display, the items will be colored based on when they are
next due, and based on how many days in advance you have asked C.A.R. to
remind you. The colors are ~?01st Reminder~70, ~>02nd Reminder~70, and ~<0Overdue~70.
Monochrome displays will show soon due and overdue entries as ~?0intensified~70.

~;0Days In Advance For 1st Reminder~70 and the ~;0Days In Advance For 2nd Reminder~70
can be changed on this menu.  A suggestion would be 30 days in advance for
1st Reminder, 7 days in advance for 2nd Reminder.

A first reminder is never given for things due once a month.

If an item is scheduled only by ^03 readings, estimated future ^03
readings will be used to determine when it is next due.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           ╞~90Reports~70
