PC*MILER-AS400 User’s Guide 31
stops reordered. "F" is used to initiate route sequencing with both the
origin and destination fixed and the remaining stops reordered. These
options are described in more detail in the main PC*MILER User's Guide.
Borders: “O” will open the borders and routes will cross International
Borders to obtain the most efficient trip. “C” will close the borders and
routes will only cross international borders if the trip has a stop in that
country.
Ovrd (Override) Restrictions: In addition to the five basic PC*MILER
route types, a Heavy and Light Vehicle routing option is now offered.
When Ovrd Restrictions is set to “Y”, the Light Vehicle option is activated.
With Light Vehicle routing active, truck-prohibited roads will always be
avoided, but truck-restricted roads are considered for a route. (PC*MILER
normally gives preference to Interstates, major highways, and major thru-
roads where possible.)
NOTE: With Ovrd Restrictions set to “N”, Heavy Vehicle routing is in
effect, so both truck-prohibited and truck-restricted roads will always
be avoided. In addition, Heavy Vehicle routing takes nationwide 13' 6"
height restrictions into account. A heavy vehicle is one weighing at least
80,000 pounds; a light vehicle weighs less than 80,000 pounds.
Miles/Kilometers: "M" will generate distances in miles. "K" will generate
distances in kilometers.
Use Ferry Distance: If set to “Y”, distance traveled on ferries will be
included in all distance totals. If set to “N” ferry distances are not included
in totals. Note: Routes will still include ferry travel but this travel is not
included in distance totals.
HazMat (Hazardous Material Type): (only with the PC*MILER|HazMat
add-on data module installed) Types of hazardous material routing that
can be generated are: “G” for General, “C” for Corrosive, “E” for explosive,
“F” for Flammable, “I” for Inhalant, and “R” for Radioactive.
Region (Continent): Regions in which mileage can be generated are: “A”
for Asia; “E” for Europe; “F” for Africa; “N” for North America; “O” for
Oceania; or “S” for South America. (Regions outside North America
require PC*MILER|Worldwide.)
