Fedex DFW- example

Fedex server 192.168.2.42

Troubleshooting Note:

##: If ODBC connection is not connecting, remember (ask FedEx) Technician to remove the 'Meter Value' from the software on their end.

Look at other shipping station, the FedEx integrator is at the bottom right of screen, looks like a computer and monitor, if you right-click on it after STOP is the True project name.

Then go back to the new system, file -- exit the fedex swo, go to c:/programData/fedex/integration/projects, delete the MRU.xml and any other .fsi except the true project name, so after delete, you should only have True project name in the folder.

Start -- Run -- type fedexsvcmanager /see, wait a little bit. Start the fedex swo (Fedex Ship manager) again.

Troubleshoot:

To restart fedex services (if scale is not reading in shipment window)

Run--fedexsvcmanager /see /rsoft
