APPENDIX B DSR Card Automation
B-1. General
a. Installations with the automated capability to append electronically transmitted DSR cards to their appropriate database systems include (but is not limited to) those listed in Table B-l.
Electronic transmission of DSR cards is defined as forwarding a DSR card, which has been formatted according to the criteria in paragraph B-2, by EMAIL, 5-25" disk (high or low density), or 3.5" disk (high or low density).
Table B-1. Installations with Automation Capability
Installation Installation
17th Ordnance Company
65th Ordnance Company, SAACT #3 Aberdeen Proving Ground
ARCENT Training & Security, Kuwait Crane Army Ammunition Activity Dugway Proving Ground
Fort Bragg Fort Campbell Fort Drum Fort Hood
Fort Hunter Liggett Fort Leonard Wood
Fort McCoy Fort Polk Fort Stewart Picatinny Arsenal Pine Bluff Arsenal Savanna Army Depot Seneca Army Depot U.S. Army, Pacific
U.S. Army Spt Command, HI White Sands Missile Range Yakima Training Center
b. Electronic distribution of DSR cards between installations with the requisite capability meets the distribution requirements of para 12-4. Manual distribution of ammunition data cards to all locations and printed copies of an automated DSR card to installations without automation capability is still required according to para 12-4.
c. Conversion of an automated DSR card database back to a manual system is not authorized without approval from the appropriate major command.
B-2. Format for electronic transmission of a DSR card,
a. Each data field will consist of printable charcters (ASCII text) and have all trailing blanks removed.
b. The beginning and end of each field will be delimited with a "I"
character (ASCII code 124) followed by a line feed (ASCII code 10) after the 2nd "I".
c. To minimize problems with electronic mail systems, operating
systems, and different video terminals, each field with a width greater than 80 characters (after trailing blanks have been removed) will be reformatted by replacing the last blank character before the 80th
column, and each line thereafter, with a line feed (ASCII code 10).
These line feeds will be converted back to a blank character during the DSR card appending process.
d. The number of DSR cards in the file will be identified just prior to the beginning of the first DSR card. Identification will be the phrase "DSRNUM: 000" followed by a line feed. The number of DSR cards should be a three digit number (zero-filled).
e. Each DSR card will consist of a DSR card header and Ammunition Data Card information (identified by "BEGIN OOO"), inspection remarks
(identified by "INSP 000") and lot component data (identified by "COMP 000" 1. The numerical field will be a zero filled three digit number (001, 002, etc.). There may only be one DSR card header for each DSR card but there may be multiple inspection remarks or lot component data.
f. Any field that is not used or is blank will be represented by 1 blank character (i.e. "| |". All numeric fields will be zero-filled (i.e., “1” in a 3-digit numeric field should be represented as “001”).
g. The required fields for the DSR card header are listed in Table B-2; inspection remarks are listed in Table B-3; and component data are listed in Table B-4. All fields are listed in the proper order they would appear in the electronic file. Figure B-1 provides a copy of a
sample electronic DSR Card File.

Materiel returned from customers or users and awaiting condition classification.
CODE L SUSPENDED (LITIGATION)
Materiel held pending litigation or negotiation with contractors or common carriers.
CODE M SUSPENDED (IN WORK)

CODE N SUSPENDED (SUITABLE FOR EMERGENCY COMBAT USE)
Ammunition stocks suspended from issue except for emergency combat use.
CODE P UNSERVICEABLE (RECLAMATION)
Materiel determined to be unserviceable, uneconomically reparable as a result of physical inspection, tear-down, or engineering decision. Item contains serviceable components or assemblies to be reclaimed.
