Tool Types

When defining a tool under Admin > Company > Tools, you can choose from the following Tool Types:

1. Cut List - Tool type provides the ability to send a cut list directly to the GTP STRATUS Workstation which included General and TigerStop cuts. The Tracking Status in STRATUS can be automatically updated after each TigerStop cut is made. Note: This tool type was formerly labeled TigerStop. All tools have been converted to Cut List.
   
2. PyperServer - A CSV export format for PypeServer cut lists.
3. T-Drill Cutting - A CSV export format for T-Drill cut lists. 
4. T-Drill Collaring - A CSV export format for T-Drill cut lists.
5. ZPL Printer - Print labels with a Zebra printer for non-TigerStop cut lists like PypeServer and T-Drill.
6. Total Station - A Total Station tool that can receive CSV points and/or DXF graphics files for hanger and other recognized points scoped out using packages.

You may need to Edit the Label Template to configure the label fields. If so, please submit a STRATUS Service Desk request.

To print cut list labels, see the Label Printing for Zebra (ZPL) Compatible Printers topic in the FAQ.
