	:Each session on the APU‐102 is capable of reporting consist and maintenance reports to the host of your choice. Sessions can be configured for different purposes. For example, a customer may set up Session 1 for standard consist and maintenance reporting to its normal host system, then configure Session 2 to report different types of information (such as scale reports) to other facilities on the railroad. This often happens when the host system to which the AEI reports are sent cannot handle the type of data the other facility needs.		:Each session on the APU‐102 is capable of reporting consist and maintenance reports to the host of your choice.

	:Each session on the APU‐102 is capable of reporting consist and maintenance reports to the host of your choice. Sessions can be configured for different purposes. For example, a customer may set up Session 1 for standard consist and maintenance reporting to its normal host system, then configure Session 2 to report different types of information (such as scale reports) to other facilities on the railroad. This often happens when the host system to which the AEI reports are sent cannot handle the type of data the other facility needs.		:Each session on the APU‐102 is capable of reporting consist and maintenance reports to the host of your choice.
