Carlson Grade allows for site-managers to define a series of questions to be answered by the operator at the beginning of every shift. The list of questions is defined in Carlson Command, and broadcast to the fleet when it changes. Punchlists can be broadcast when machines are offline; in this situation, the new punchlist will be downloaded to the machine the next time it streams to Command. The punchlist will be shown on machine startup, or operator login (if enabled), and will not allow further interaction with Grade until a response is submitted.

NOTE: Any number of Bad responses to critical questions will induce a downcode.
Questions that are not marked as "Critical" will not induce any down-codes regardless of the response.
Punchlist questions will appear in a table on the screen. The left column shows the question, the right column provide buttons to respond, the middle column shows a preview of the entered response (if any). See the above question types to learn how to respond to each kind. Once all questions on a page have been answered, the "next" button will activate; tap it to move onto the next page or finish.
