I'm having a problem with CLS2 - resolved

I've set up a CLS2(external logistics) ship to refuel me when I'm jumping around dropping adv sats, exploring or whatever. I thought it was working. I jumped, had room for more ecells and my toucan jumped in and filled me up then went home to refill. I was happy. I love games that allow us to set up automated logistics/procedures to accomplish game related mechanics/goals.

However, after a few jumps I noticed my Toucan wasn't showing up. So I R'd and I see him at home on 'CLS Standby...'. I restarted him and he brought me my fuel. "Pats toucan' good boy took... But then next jump it happened again. He's standing by...

Longer story shorter. Restarting doesn't seem to fix it most of the time. I tried adding another ship, an Angel, and he took fuel to her just fine. Not sure if he's standing by for her too sometimes or not. I figured I must be doing something wrong and decided to come here and see if anyone can straighten my understanding out.

Minimum transfer amount for collecting = 5%
Minimum transfer amount for delivering = 5%
Dock with ship only in the same sector = yes

My pilot is Logistician. I've got ecells in his homebase. In fact he's full.

Any ideas?

Have you try "wait for Signal=Yes" in his supply condition menu?
in the command menu of your own ship where you can edit auto-jump , what have you set as jump-Reserve ?

Set minimum for delivery to zero and dock with only in sector to no. And, he does have a transporter device, yes?

Yes, but that appears to do nothing at all so i re-disabled it.

Fuel Resupply Quantity = 25

@Timsup2nothin, Thank you. It seems to be working with the 0% on deliveries. I thought that would make him run non-stop back and forth. But that doesn't seem to be the case, so far anyway.

I'm currently reading your guide on CLS2. Really good. I've changed a couple of mine to include the 'fly to station' and loading/buying waypoints. Thanks for the guide as well as the help on my problem.
