7.0 Using PC*MILER|Tolls with Other Transportation
Software
Notes For Existing PC*MILER-AS400 Users:
• A set of 10 new trip parameters has been inserted into all of the
request and response packets.
• All return types (CP, SR, HR) were expanded to hold Toll Cost
information. CP was expanded by seven characters, SR by 77, and
HR by 63.
For PC*MILER|Tolls, the ROUTEINFO portion of the HS return was
increased by seven characters and the number of ROUTEINFO sets per
response packet was increased from three to nine to improve performance.
For users who are upgrading from Version 15 or less, see NOTE below for
previous changes.
• Output Data Queue sizes were lengthened from 1024 to 1048.
• Data Area “TLLALK” (renamed from COMALK) was modified to
store a default setting for toll cost requests.
• “Old mode” or short city names (22 characters) are not supported.
NOTE for Version 22-28: The following features are not supported in the
AS400 product line: Fuel Optimization, Vehicle Profiles, Estimated
Greenhouse Gas Emissions, RouteSync, Entry/Exit Toll Plaza Names in
Reports, and Real-time/Historical Traffic Data. Province/Estado
Abbreviation Option to set “NL” preference is supported in Version 25-28
only.
Added for Version 20 and higher: Borders Open/Closed and Use
Ferry Distance options. The first two characters of the four-character
“Request Sequence” have been re-mapped to hold the Borders and Ferry
Flags.
Historically the Request Sequence values have been ignored by the PC
Distance Server. Unlike other trip options, Border and Ferry settings are
not echoed back in the responses from the PC.
For the optional PC*MILER|HazMat hazardous material routing package,
two routing types have been added: Caustic and Flammable.
