Hi,

I have a similar 'problem'.  Though in my case, the Time clocks that  
are used (Start Control, Finish Control, Service In, Service Out) are  
able to squirt out the information to an RS232 port.  We already have  
a site that should cover all the stages.  As far as I'm aware, the  
Car number is entered into the time clock (and recorded) along with  
the time, so it would just be a case of sending it over the air.

I was going to wait until I got the ASCII format from the timeclocks  
before e-mailing anything to this list, but now is as good a time as  
any, seeing as the subject has been brought up.

Regards
