Operating System Introduction

1 – Introduction

This reference manual explains commands that are used to set up, maintain, produce reports

on, and diagnose problems for a CFN III system.

Your service technician will set up your CFN III and introduce you to some of its features.

This manual can help you avoid many unnecessary service calls, and help assure that your

CFN III works the way you want it to.

This manual is for anyone who requires to know how to issue commands to the CFN III, or

interpret the log printout and other reports. The Site Manager or person in charge of operations

at the site must be familiar with this manual and its contents so you can operate and maintain

the CFN III information. Attendants are not required to read this manual in order to operate the

Profit Point consoles, which are covered in other manuals.

This manual is not intended to be read cover to cover, but you must become familiar with its

contents so you can look up information when you require it.

Operating System

The Site Controller III (SC III) comes with a PC operating system called Windows® XP

Embedded (XPE) from Microsoft

Windows XPE system is not set up as a general PC and must be used only for the purpose of

housing the CFN embedded payment controller. Microsoft W indows XPE license states that a

Windows XPE system cannot be used as a general purpose PC. For example, the restrictions

would include general software such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel

applications. This new system is icon based, that is, you must use your mouse to access the

command window and/or applications. Y ou must move the mouse (which is represented as the

arrow on the screen) over the icon that you want to open and double click the left mouse

button. Your technician will instruct you on the basics of this system and accessing your CFN3

command window . The CFN3 command window must remain running at all times. It can be

minimized (more about that later), but once closed, you will lose contact with the Site

Controller.

When the CFN3 software was installed, your technician or system administrator configured it

with your particular devices and the procedures your company follows. For example, if your

site accepts cash for fuel, the CFN III has been told whether the customer is required to pay

before pumping (a prepay system) or is allowed to pay after pumping (a postpay system).

Starting the SC III

The computer is turned on (booted) by pressing the button on the front of the computer . Ensure

that the monitor is turned on and there are no diskettes in the A: drive. It will take a few

moments to start. Not required to double-click the CFN3 icon to start operations, the operating

system has been programmed to do this for you. The CFN3 command window automatically

opens. Press the return key if your signon prompt does not display immediately.

. Windows XPE is set up with restricted services. The

, or other general

Introduction Operating System

Quitting the CFN3 Application

The preferred way to quit the CFN3 application is to press Alt and when continuing to press the Alt key, press the X key. This will terminate your site operations. If you forget this, this method is mentioned when you log on at the top of the screen as illustrated in

page 1-3.

Figure 1-1 on

Minimizing the Command Window

The site controller runs with either the command window open or minimized.

Minimizing the CFN3 command window collapses the window on your deskto p into the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, running it in the background. To place the window in the background, click the small box in the upper right corner of the command window that h as an underline. Notice the box with the “X”. Clicking once on the X will quit the application and terminate site operations; this is not the recommended way of quitting the site operations. You required to log on again by double-clicking on the CFN3 icon. Ensure that the CFN3 command window must remain either open or minimized to communicate with the SC III. If your window is not open, or has been “minimized”, click once, using the left mouse button, on the CFN3 box in the taskbar to open the window onto the desktop.

Should you accidently quit the CFN3 program by clicking in the “X” in the upper right corner , double click on the CFN3 icon using the left mouse button and log in again.

Levels of Operation

The SC III has two user levels of operation:

• Gasboy: Used for the daily CFN3 operation (and Integral Profit Point system, if present).

• Administrator: Allows you to add software updates, create/delete users, add passwords, change your PC settings, and so on.

WARNING

Running the site from the Administrator level is a violation of the PCI Security Standard.

Operating System Introduction

Gasboy Level

Figure 1-1: Gasboy - CFN3 Desktop

Icons

CFN3 Window

Taskbar

Gasboy is the default login (user) and is the working level of operation. All CFN3 operations occur at this login level. When you turn on the computer the user is Gasboy with GASBOY as the password. The desktop will contain very few icons; CFN3, CFN3 Help, My Computer, and Integral Profit Point (optional). Your day to day site operations use this login.

Figure 1-1 shows a typical CFN3 desktop with the various icons available and the CFN3

command window open. See in Figure 1-1 that the CFN3 icons (CFN3, the Integral Profit Point and the CFN3 HELP) are located in the lower left of this desktop. Icons are your link to starting your software programs. The icons can be placed anywhere on the desktop but must always be available to open the program.

At the bottom of the screen is a taskbar. Whenever an application is open it will be represented at the bottom of the screen in this taskbar . If you minimize the CFN3 command window it will be represented in this taskbar. This is your identification that the CFN3 command window is still running. The command window must remain open, or run in the background (minimized), to communicate with the site controller.

Clicking on the box representing the program will open or minimize the program’ s window on the desktop.

Introduction Logging onto Windows XP as Administrator

Administrator Level

Administrator is where users are added or deleted, your hardware settings changed, passwords changed, and so on. You can also add software updates. The Administrator requires a separate login, has a different password, and has additional features/options. There are more icons displayed on the desktop.

Note: Administrator level accounts must not be shared between multiple users. Therefore,

each administrator level user must have an individual account. Accounts can be cr eated by logging to the Wi ndows XPE as an administrator user. Access Control Panel > User Account, to add a user.

The RUN command, used to install software from the Start button, is only available from the Administrator level. This command is a Windows XP operating system command and is different from the CFN3 RUN command.

Logging onto Windows XP as Administrator

When the computer boots, the default login is Gasboy. To make any changes to your CFN3 setup you must log in as Administrator. To log in as the Administrator, proceed as follows:

1 Select Start > Shutdown.

2 From the Shut Down Windows screen, select the list of options under the “What do you want

the computer to do?” prompt.

System Overview Site Controller III

3 – Site Controller III

System Overview

The Site Controller III (SC III) is the brain of the CFN III System. Its job is to keep you informed of what is going on at your site and to enable you to control the various pieces of equipment involved in a fueling operation, such as fuel pumps or dispensers, automatic gates, and tank gauges.

The SC III collects information about what each device is doing and makes that information available to you in a convenient format. When you issue commands to the Site Controller-for example, to tell it to authorize a sale on a fuel pump-it forwards the request to the pump hardware, then monitors the sale in case something goes wrong. It puts control of all the connected devices at your fingertips.

When the SC III was installed, your technician or system administrator configured it with the PC operating system, along with your particular devices and the procedures your company follows. For example, if your site accepts cash for fuel, the SC III has been told whether the customer is required to pay before pumping (a prepay system) or is allowed to pay after pumping (a postpay system).

CFN3 Command Window

The P: drive is your CFN3 prompt and the location of the SC3 root directory.

The command window has a [drive:/directory]* prompt where you will enter your commands to the SC III. If you do not see this prompt you must press Enter to bring up the signon prompt. Sign on as instructed and press Enter. The [P:]* prompt will display. The command window must be “active” to communicate with the SC III. Active means that the window appears on the desktop with a colored band at the top displaying the words CFN3. If the band is gray then the window is not active. To activate the window, move the desktop arrow over the window (using the mouse) and click once using the left mouse button. For more information about your command window and the desktop refer to “Introduction” on page 1-1.

Consoles

The Point Of Sale (POS) device that communicate with the SC III is the Profit Point console.

The console combines pump control and cash-register functions. They allow you to turn on pumps and accept cash or other payment. They are used at sites that do retail business, accept cash or Credit Cards in the store. The Profit Point manuals describe console operations.

Site Controller III Readers

Readers

Readers are devices that communicate with the CFN system and allow input from the end user. They can activate pumps, display messages, and print receipts. Readers can consist of any combination of a customer display, keypad, card reader, and receipt printer. Some readers are “in dispenser” and are specifically assigned to a single pump. Stand-alone readers can represent multiple pumps and require a pump selection from the user . To obtain a receipt from these readers, the user must return to the reader after completing a fuel sale and re-swipe the card or enter the pump number that was used.

Log Printer

Another device, the log printer prints a continuous record of transactions and may also be used to print reports. Every site requires some type of printer. It is important to know how to read the information that comes out of the printer, since it in cludes data about completed sales and messages about any errors that have occurred.

The log printer generates an on-going record on paper of important events at the site. These include sales transactions and system messages generated when certain commands are run or when errors are detected during operation.

The log printer, such as an Okidata can read its output. The output of the log printer serves both as a maintenance log and an audit trail. For example, the log printer records an entry as each sale is concluded and also any time a problem is detected in an attached pump, island card reader, or other device.

184 plain printer, must be located where site personnel

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Since the printed log is an importan t bu si n ess record, it is important not to let the log printer jam or run out of paper.

In order to print, the log printer must be in the state called on-line or ready. This is usually indicated by a light on the front panel of the printer. The log printer normally goes off-line automatically when it jams or runs out of paper. You can take the log printer off-line to load paper. Most printers have a switch labeled on-line or select for taking them on- and off-line.

A properly connected and configured log printer will notify the SC III whenever it goes off-line, so that no data will be sent to it until it is again ready to print. However, the space available for storing such output is limited, so the log printer must not be left off-line for long periods when the site is operating.

It is possible to print a file on a log printer. This is usually done at shift change or by a local automatic command file. When a file is printed on the log this way, the terminal beeps and prints the header - Printing: filename date time where filename is the name of the file being printed.

Command Terminals Site Controller III

Command Terminals

Site commands can be entered through local or remote terminals. The local terminal is the command window on your CFN III PC. A remote terminal is connected to the site through one of the SC III’s RS-232 ports. It can be any dumb terminal such as the LINK or another PC running terminal emulator software capable of supporting VT100 or VT52 (such as Procomm

). The remote terminal can also be a modem connection.

Plus

Commands

In order to use the SC III fully, you must know how to give it commands and to understand its replies. Commands are instructions you type in the CFN3 Command window. CFN3 commands must be typed in exactly the format shown in this manual. Most commands are words or abbreviations for the action to be performed. For example, typing PRINT DATE and then pressing Enter causes the SC III to print the current date and time according to its internal clock.

Some commands, as explained in this manual, have short forms that you can use instead of typing the whole command in order to save time. In the above example, PRINT DATE could have been typed P DA.

Besides command words, other special symbols, such as < and >, provide flexibility in redirecting the input to or output from commands.

Command Keys

The keyboards on all types of PCs have much in common. The SC III uses several specific keys for specific functions. These keys may be located in different positions on different keyboards.

Locate the Delete, Control, Enter, and EscapE keys on your keyboard. Note that:

• Delete key may be marked Del

• Control key may be marked Ctrl or Ctl

• Enter key may be marked Return, RTN or

• Escape key may be marked Esc

System-response Problems

↵

When you open the CFN3 command window, it must display a [P:]* at the top left of the screen. If not, press Enter or Return on your local terminal, the system must respond with a signon prompt. Should the system not respond, close the window by pressing Alt, hold it down, and then press X. Release both keys. Open the CFN3 window again by double-clicking the CFN3 icon. Press Enter to get the signon prompt.

Site Controller III CFN3 Command Sessions

CFN3 Command Sessions

After signing on, you may enter data and commands until you either sign off or are signed off automatically. The time during which you are signed on is referred to as a command session.

How to Sign On

To sign on to the Site Controller, enter a user number and password. The information below provide information to add new users and change the password.

To sign on, proceed as follows:

1 Press Enter. The terminal will print the message signon:

2 Type your user number, a comma, and your password. Press Enter.

For example, if your user number is 3, and your password is AGENT007, type 3, AGENT007. If your password has any upper case letters, ensure that you enter them in upper

case. The terminal will not echo the password you type for security reasons.

When you are properly signed on, the terminal prints a message such as Connected to site 1010 on Tue 7/27/04 1:12PM to show that the command session has begun and it is ready to accept commands. The next line displays the command prompt [P:]*.

How to Sign Off

To end a command session, press Escape (usually marked ESC) or type Exit or Quit and press Enter.

The terminal will accept no further commands until you or someone else signs on again. When you sign off, the terminal prints Sign off Tue 10/26/04 1:25PM. Do not click X in the upper right corner of the window.

Automatic Sign Off

If you do not type anything on the terminal for 5 minutes, the terminal ends the command session automatically. This protects the system if you forget to sign off.

How to Enter Commands and Data

Commands tell the site controller to perform particular actions, such as printing reports or changing prices.

To enter a command, type the command on the terminal keyboard and press Enter.

After the site controller finishes performing the action requested by a command, it will respond with the current drive letter followed by an asterisk [P:]* to show that it is ready to accept another command. This letter-asterisk combination is called the command prompt, since it prompts you to enter a command. Anytime you see the command prompt, the site controller is ready to accept a command.

Page 3-4 MDE-4871 CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows® XP Embedded - Version 3.6 · Augu st 2010

Page 33

CFN3 Command Sessions Site Controller III

For example, if you type the PRINT DATE command and press Enter, the terminal prints the date and time, followed by the command prompt to indicate that the command has been executed and the terminal is ready to accept another command.

Note: Any time you enter a command, you can type the full command or use the short form,

such as P DA for Print Date in the section immediately above. You can use eit her upper case or lower case letters when typing commands. For the short form of system commands, type HELP and press Enter at the command prompt. The essential part of the command will appear in upper case. For the Print DAte command, the P DA command is shown in upper case and this is all that is requir ed to execute the command.

If a command requires that you enter data, the terminal will ask a question—which is called a data entry prompt—indicating what type of data you must enter. If the terminal displays a data entry prompt:

• Type the data and press Enter.

• If the command has several prompts, type the requested data and press Enter after each

one.

• After the last prompt in the series, the terminal will print the command prompt to indicate the command has been executed and the terminal is ready to accept another command.

To print the date, type PRINT DATE and press Enter.

[P:]* PRINT DATE ↵

How to Use Options with Commands

Many commands take options that modify how the command works. These options are additional letters or symbols typed on the command line after the command.

A semicolon (;) separates the command and the option(s). Do not put a space between the command and the option(s); if you insert a space, the option will be interpreted as an argument.

If both options and arguments (data) are used on a command line, the options come first, then a space, then the arguments: command;options arguments

When more than one option is used with a command, the options may be listed in any order. Complex options (P1=, P2=, >, >>, <) are separated by commas.

The common options are:

Option Function Description A All Usually expands the effect of a command.

I Initialize Usually initializes data affected by the command. C Chain Allows you to enter multiple sets (a chain) of data to

CFN3 Command Sessions Site Controller III

Disk-based commands use different options than those given here for system-resident commands. However, almost all the commands required for everyday operation are system resident, and so they have the options and form described in this section.

How to Enter Multiple Blocks of Information

For the commands that enter data, the LOAD commands, for example, you can use the C option to enter multiple blocks of data with one command. W ithout the C option, only a single block can be entered with each command.

To use the C option:

• Type semicolon C (;C) after the command.

• The terminal will print a prompt each time you press Enter. The amount of data you can

enter for each command is determined by the CFN3 configuration.

• When you have entered all the data, press Enter once after the next prompt without

entering any data.

To use the C option with the command LOAD HEADING, type LOAD HEADING;C.

Figure 3-1: LOAD HEADING Command with C Option

[P:]* LOAD HEADING;C ↵ Line number? 1 ↵ Heading line? SMITTY’S STATION ↵ Line number? 2 ↵ Heading line? 10 MAIN STREET ↵ Line number? 3 ↵ Heading line? SMITH, WA 98000 ↵ Line number? 11 ↵ Footing line? THANK YOU ↵ Line number? 12 ↵ Footing line? PLEASE COME AGAIN ↵ Line number? 0 ↵ Form feed length? 5 Line number? ↵

[P:]*

↵

Two Commas Typed

No Data Entered

The terminal continues to print prompts each time Enter is pressed.

To enter a comma, type two commas on the third heading line (see Figure 3-1). One comma will be printed on the receipt.

End the sequence by pressing Enter, without entering any data, after the last “Line number?” prompt of the series (see Figure 3-1).

Page 36

Site Controller III CFN3 Command Sessions

How to Verify Commands

Some commands require verification before they are executed. These commands give you a chance to terminate the action if you entered the command inadvertently.

If a command requires verification, the terminal will print the prompt Verify (y/n)?. Type a Y to continue execution, or an N to terminate the command. Do not type a Y unless you are sure the command does what you want to do.

Try not to get in the bad habit of typing Y automatically when prompted with Verify (y/n)?. Look at the command line you typed and think first.

Note: Verification is not required when one of these commands is included in a command file.

How to Use Ranges with Commands

Most PRINT commands allow you to act on specified ranges of data.

• A range has the form N-M, which means numbers N through M (in entering the command, actual numbers are substituted for N and M).

• A -N means numbers from the beginning of the file through N.

• An N- means number N through the end of the file.

• An N means print only number N.

If the starting number specified is not in the file, no data is printed. The printout stops after the last number specified or at the end of the file if the ending number is not in the file.

You can specify more than one range for a command:

• PRINT TRANSACTION 23-150 prints transactions 23 through 150.

• PRINT TRANSACTION 23-150 200-250 prints transactions 23 through 150 and 200 through 250.

• PRINT TRANSACTION 23- prints transaction number 23 through the end of the transaction file.

• PRINT TRANSACTION -5 prints transactions from the beginning of the file through transaction 5.

• PRINT TRANSACTION 34 prints only transaction number 34.

• PRINT TRANSACTION;P2=ACC=54, 1-10 prints transactions whose account number starts with 54, in the transaction range 1 through 10.

The only PRINT commands that do not allow ranges are PRINT CARD, PRINT CONSOLE, PRINT DATE, PRINT PHONE, PRINT RECEIPT, and PRINT TIP. PRINT LOCKOUT does not allow ranges in systems with limited lockout.

Shortcut for Entering Data

After you are familiar with some of the commands, you may no longer require the prompts to remind you how to enter data. You can type the command and all the data you want to enter on one line before you press Enter.

Separate items with a comma. To enter a comma as part of the text, type two commas. Remember that if you use the C option, you must press Enter twice to enter and terminate the command.

STREET Line number? ↵

[P:]*

How to Use Disk-based Commands

Disk-based commands are programs that are stored on a disk. These commands are actually names of executable disk files. Therefore, if the file is stored on a removable (or floppy) disk, the disk must be present in the drive for the command to be run.

There are two types of disk-based commands: command files that contain a list of CFN3 commands and have the extension .CMD, and executables that have the extension .BIN. To execute either of these, a disk containing the corresponding CMD or BIN file must be in the SC III disk drive, or the file must be present on the hard disk drive.

The SC III will first look for the command in different places in the following order (known as the search path):

Path Description

R: RAM drive . current directory P:BIN the .BIN directory on the hard disk

You must type the entire command name, including the path, if the command is not in the RAM drive, the current directory, or P:BIN. Do not type the extension .BIN or .CMD. If the SC III cannot find a .BIN or .CMD file corresponding to what you typed, it will reply with the message unknown command. The site looks for .BIN first, then .CMD.

Redirecting Command Input and Output

Normally commands take their input from the keyboard and send their output to the command terminal. You can use input and output redirection to cause commands to take their input from a file and put their output in a file.

You can use input and output redirection together. When you combine the redirection options with other options on the same command line, if the other options follow the redirection options, put a comma after the filename. For example,

PRINT PUMP;>filename,A may also be written as PRINT PUMP;A>filename

In any case, a blank space must always separate the command options from the arguments or data.

Page 38

Site Controller III Log Printer

How to Redirect Input for a Command

The option for input redirection is <. You can create a file with data for a command, then execute the command with that file as input. For example, the file MESSAGES shown below contains data for the command LOAD MESSAGE. This example results in a moving message on the island card reader’s display. The second column is the length of time each line is displayed.

The command LOAD MESSAGE;<MESSAGES,IC executes the command LOAD MESSAGE with input from the file MESSAGES.

[P:]* LOAD MESSAGES ↵ 1 3.00 Welcome to 2 3.00 Will’s Fast Fuel

3 3.00 Walla Walla,, WA 4 3.00 <---Slide Card <--5 0.20 <--6 0.20 <---

70.20<---

80.20<--9 2.00 Need Oil? 10 3.00 Oil is on sale! [P:]*

How to Redirect Output from a Command

The options for output redirection are > and >>. These options differ in their effect on an existing file that is to receive output. The > option overwrites the contents of an existing file. The >> option appends data to the end of an existing file. For example, the command PRINT TRANSACTIONS;>TRANS puts the output of PRINT TRANSACTIONS in the file TRANS, deleting whatever was in the TRANS file.

The command PRINT TRANSACTIONS;>>TRANS appends the output of the command PRINT TRANSACTIONS to the file TRANS.

Log Printer

Do not use the option ;>LOG with a command file or an executable on an SC III.

How to Print a File on a Log Printer

Use the command LOG FILE or LOG FI to print a file on the log printer.

LOG FILE (LOG FI) [P:]* LOG FILE File name? SAL-RPT ↵

[P:]*

The message that prints includes the date and time: Bob, Call branch office Tue 10/26/04 5:51 PM.

Keyboard Control Characters

Keyboard control characters are used to edit the command line and to modify the effect of commands. They allow you to terminate commands, delete characters you have typed, and temporarily stop printout.

The following key combinations are described in this section:

Keys Description

CTRL-C CTRL-S CTRL-Q CTRL-X DELETE BACKSPACE

The L command option and the HELP command are also discussed next.

The CONTROL Key

As shown above, some functions are executed by using a combination of the CONTROL key (designated by CTRL or CTL on the key) and a specified character. To execute one of these functions, hold down CONTROL when you type the specified character.

How to Terminate a Command

After you have typed a command and pressed Enter, you can terminate th e c o mm an d in most cases by typing a ^C. (Ensure, C for cease.) When you type a ^C with a print command the printout will stop at the point where the ^C was typed.

How to Delete Characters

Press Backspace (or type a ^H) to delete the previous character. Press Backspace as many times as required to delete the mistake, then type the correct characters. You must make the corrections before you press Enter.

The user typed PRNT. The user pressed Backspace twice. The terminal deleted the NT. The user typed INT DATE.

[P:]* PRNT

[P:]* PR

[P:]* PRINT DATE

How to Delete a Line

Use a ^X to delete an entire line. You must make the correction before you press Enter.

The user typed PRUNT DATE and noticed the error. The user entered a ^X. The terminal printed a backslash after the deleted line and moved down one line.

[P:]* PRUNT DATE

[P:]* PRUNT DATE\

How to Pause Printout

A pause in printing is useful for viewing a printout on a CRT.

T o temporarily pause printing without terminating a command, enter a ^S (S for stop) or press Pause if you have a printer terminal. This will keep new lines from being printed.

To continue printing, enter ^Q, or press Enter, or press Pause again.

How to Pause Printout with the L Option

Use the L option to automatically pause printing after a specified number of lines have been printed. Press Enter to print the next group of lines. If you do not specify a number, 24 lines will be printed.

T o use the L op tion to specify page lengt h, type a semicolon L (; L), followed by an equ als sign and the required number, after the command. For example, ;L=20 sets the screen length to 20 lines.

The L option will affect all subsequent print commands until you sign off. To remove the L option, type semicolon L=0 (;L=0) or semicolon minus L (;-L) after a command.

• Type: PRINT DIAGNOSTICS;L

[P:]* PRINT DIAGNOSTICS;L

The terminal will print 24 lines each time the user press Enter, until all the diagnostics have been printed

• Type: PRINT DIAGNOSTICS;L=20

[P:]* PRINT DIAGNOSTICS;L=20

The terminal will print 20 lines each time the user press Enter, until all the diagnostics have been printed

Permission Levels

Permission levels are used for security and safety. By assigning appropriate permission levels to users and to commands, you can make sure that users have access to only the commands they require to use.

In the default configuration, users with permission level 2 are allowed to activate only basic CFN3 commands.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Level 10 must be used only for Administrator Access to the CFN3. Standard users of the system must use level 4.

For security reasons, users with permission level 10 are not allowed to login remotely.

Remote Access Command

SYStem. Typing SYStem will take you to the Windows XP operating system from the CFN3 application. Typing SYS does not change drives, it only allows you to see different drives on the PC. To return to CFN3 from Windows XP, type EXIT. Do not add any additional extensions or commands such as SYS PJ or SYS TYPE. It is NOT advised to use this command when using the PC. When you require to execute Windows XP commands on your PC, use a DOS window with a C: prompt or use Windows XP Explorer.

This command is designed for use from a remote signon when the PC cannot be accessed directly.

Optional Commands

Several of the commands shown on the help list, such as DISABLE FPR and ENABLE FPR, work only with the optional programs you may not have installed. If you try to run these commands without having installed the program, an error message appears.

HELP Command

Type HELP to list all valid commands and options for the permission level you are signed on at (the short form of the commands are shown in uppercase letters).

The following illustration shows a printout for a user who has access to all commands. The number before each command is the number that runs that command from a console.

If you specify the first word of a command with the HELP command, only the commands that start with that word will be printed. For example, HELP LOAD prints all the commands that start with LOAD.

If you type HELP * and the second part of a command, you will see all the commands whose second word starts with what you specified. For example, HELP * VEHICLE (note the blank space before and after the *) prints all the commands whose second word is VEHICLE.

User ID Numbers Users

4 – Users

The system administrator is usually responsible for assigning the initial user-identification number and a password to each person who will require to use the SC III data terminal for accessing the CFN III system. Some systems also require users to sign on to the Profit Point. For these, the system administrator is also responsible for assigning password to people who use the console.

In its normal configuration the SC III allows up to 99 users; the default number is 5. Each user has three attributes, a user number (0 through 99), a password of up to 16 alphanumeric characters, and a permission level (0-10):

• User numbers identify users. They are also used in the output of PRINT HISTORY

command to show which user executed which commands.

• Passwords are used for security. By controlling who knows the password you can control

who has access to your system. For PCI compliance, each user must have a unique user number and password. Users must not share passwords.

• Permission levels are used for security and safety. By assigning appropriate permission

levels to users and to commands, you can ensure that users have access only to commands that they require to use. In the default configuration, users with permission level 2 are allowed to activate only basic SC III commands. Only PCI Administrators are granted permission level 10 and are allowed to activate all SC III commands. All other users are only granted permission levels 0-9.

User ID Numbers

The SC III is capable of controlling 99 users. Users 97 and 98 are reserved for backup access purposes. If there are fewer than 97 employees at a site, each employee must have their own user number.

How to Add a User

Using the admpass.bin Program

The admpass program is designed for an administrator to setup and control users access to the system. The admpass program will allow new users to setup, modify some parameters for existing users, enable or disable a user, and remove a user from the system.

Adding a New User

To add a new user to the system, proceed as follows:

1 Select item 1.

Note: The User ID will be a number between 0 and 99. User number 97 and 98 must be

reserved and must not be used for general user.

2 If the user already exists, a warning will be displayed and the administrator must answer to the

prompt, to continue or to abort the process.

Adding a new user requires a password to be entered by the administrator . This is also required to modify other default items, if required. The new password added will expire after the first login by the user. The user has to setup a new password at the first login. If the user does not set up a new password to replace the temporary password loaded by the administrator, the user will not be allowed access to the system until the administrator resets the password again. The number of days before the password expires is 90 days and the user is enabled, as default.

Enabling or Disabling a User

To enable or disable existing users, select item 2.

Note: Disabling an account will not extend the timing for a password to expire.

Modifying User Account

To modify user account, select item 3.

Note: The administrator can change some account parameters, using new password,

changing the security level, and disabling or enabling the user. If the administrator changes the password, the user will be r equired to enter a new passwor d when they first access the system.

Removing a User from the System

To remove a user from the system, select item 4.

2 If an existing user is selected as a new user, the system will prompt for verification before

allowing the existing user data to be scrubbed and a new user is created for that User ID.

New Password

Following are the guidelines for creating a new password:

• The Password is mandatory and must consist of 7 to 16 characters.

• The password is case-sensitive and can have numbers mixed with upper case and lower case letters.

• If less than 7 or more than 16 characters are entered, then the administrator will be notified that the password is invalid and require to try again.

• To meet strong password and PCI DSS requirements, a password must consist mixture of letters and numbers.

• Only alphanumeric characters will be accepted for passwords.

The password table works just as it did in prior versions and will follow the same rules as previous versions. However, the password is not decipherable by viewing the password table, as it is with prior versions. The commands “load sig”, “add sig”, and “remove sig” are no longer compatible and cannot be executed.

When a new user logs in for the first time, the user will be notified that the password must be changed. If the password is not changed, the User ID will expire and the user will be unable to login. The system will also notify a user before the user’s password expires.

• If a user is remotely logging into the system, the user will be notified 30 days before the password expires, and every day thereafter.

• If the user locally logs into the system, the user will be notified 10 days before the expiration of the password, and every day thereafter.

• If the local user does not update the password before it expires, the user will be given one chance to change the password on a login after the expiration date.

• If the user is logged in locally at the Site Controller console, or is logged in remotely, a password menu appears. The user must enter the new password. After successfully completing the password update the system will automatically log the user out and the user must login again using the new password.

• If the user is at the Profit Point they will be notified of the expired password as they log into the system. But, there is no forced menu for them to update the password.

• If they fail to update the password, they will no longer have access to the system.

Days Allowed

The days allowed for a Password can range from 1 to 999 days. T o meet the PCI requirements, the days allowed cannot exceed 90 (default) for the expiration time of the password. If the days allowed exceeds 90, the administrator will be in violation of the PCI Security Standard. If the number of days equals or exceeds 900 days, the system considers this level to be a non-expiring password. A non-expiring password does not require the new user to create a new password when the system is accessed for the first time.

User Password Update

Use the command PASWD or PA* to change your password. A password can be 7 to 16 characters long, and does not have to be a word. You can use any combination of characters. When you load a new password, your previous password is erased. In order to maintain security, do not write down your password. To update the password, proceed as follows:

1 Type paswd, or pa* to access the password program. The current User ID is displayed in the

Password Update Program screen.

Password Update Program Version 1.0.1.0 ** User ID 2 **

Enter Current Password:

2 Enter the Current Password.

3 Enter the New Password.

4 After entering the new password, you will be prompted to verify it. Enter the new password

again.

The password must be from 7 to 16 characters or the passwords will not be accepted.

Password Update Program Version 1.0.1.0 ** User ID 2 **

Enter New 7 to 16 Digit Key Password: *********** Verify New 7 to 16 Digit Key Password:

After the password is verified, the system will display that the password has been updated.

Notes: 1) If a mistake is made when entering the current password, the new password, or when

verifying the new password, the backspace cannot be used to fix the mistake. Press Enter. An error message will appear and you will be prompted to change the password again.

2) When changing a password, you cannot reuse the same password for five sequences of changing the password.

If a user updates a password from the Profit Point, the entered password will not be hidden. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that their password is entered when others do not have visual accessibility to the Profit Point screen.

User ID Numbers Users

Backup Password

If the system cannot be accessed for any reason, the administrator must sign on as user 97 and obtain a CPU ID and Pass Key. The administrator must then contact Gasboy Technical Support at 1-800-444-5529 and provide the CPU ID and Pass Key information. In return, the technician will supply a password for user 98. This temporary password can be used for onetime access to the system.

Note: In previous versions of the Site Controller, the system could be accessed using a switch

setting and the backup password configured in sys_par. For increased security, the switch setting check has been removed.

First, the administrator must sign on as user 97 and use the password configured in sys_par. For example, the default backup password is GASBOY. If this has not been changed, the administrator must type 97,GASBOY. The SC3 will generate text that looks like the following:

CPU ID = 11149701 Pass Key = 4CE6 1F67 1885 E6E2

The administrator will contact Gasboy Technical Support at 1-800-444-5529 and request a backup password. The technician will provide a temporary password based on the CPU ID and Pass Key information obtained through user 97.

To enter the temporary password, the administrator must type 98,nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn, where nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn is the 16-digit temporary password provided by Gasboy Technical Support. The password must be entered with no spaces and all letters included in the password must be entered in upper case.

Once signed on as user 98, the administrator will have full access to any part of the system. The new password expires when the system is accessed, thus it can be used only once. Immediately after gaining access to the system, the administrator must update passwords using admpass or restore passwords from backup. Otherwise, the administrator must perform the previous operations to obtain another password from Technical Support.

Users Permission Levels

Permission Levels

The standard User Permission Level range is from level 0 to 10.

Every command is associated with a certain permission level. For commands that have the A or I options, the command used with the option may have a different permission level than the plain command (refer to the chart in the Command Permission Levels chapter in MDE-4773 CFN III Configuration Manual for Windows XP for details).

Command permission levels may be changed by using the disk-based configuration program PERM. Disk-based commands are assigned permission levels by the disk-based command SET_PERM.

Permission levels are usually assigned during the initial configuration of the system, but you must verify that the permission levels in use are appropriate for your system. Refer to “How to

Use Permission Levels” on page 4-7 for more information.

Refer to the MDE-4773 CFN III Configuration Manual for Windows XP if you require more information about assigning permission levels to commands.

Three things determine whether a user has access to a command. They are: the user’s permission level, the command’s permission level, and the position of the console keyswitch (if entering commands from a console).

• If a user has a permission level that is equal to or greater than the permission level required for a command, that user may execute that command.

• If a user is signed on to a console, the console keyswitch may also raise the user’s effective permission level. The permission level associated with each key , when inserted, will be in effect if it is higher than the user’s permission level. The key position permission levels are as follows:

Key Position Permission Level Profit Point, 5-position:

5 (automatically signs on user 2) user 2’s 4 (automatically signs on user 1) user 1’s 3 ON 1 2 SUPERVISOR 4 1 MANAGER 8

Profit Point, 3-position:

New Security.bin Program Users

How to Use Permission Levels

Permission levels can ensure Site Controller security.

It is probably more appropriate to think of Site Controller users as job functions rather than as individuals. For example, a typical attended s ite might have separate user IDs for Cashier, Supervisor, Manager, and System Configuration and Maintenance. The permission levels for each might be as follows:

User Job User Permission Level

Cashier/Attendant 1 Supervisor 4 Manager 8 Maintenance/Programmer 9 PCI Administrator 10

Ideally, each user must have access to only the commands required for that user’s job. This requires careful planning. You must decide what commands each level of user will require to use, and assign permission levels to commands accordingly.

Access Allowed

User Access to the system can be Enabled or Disabled.

New Security.bin Program

System Key Management

System key management is controlled from the security.bin program. The program will bring up a system key management window that is used for setting up and controlling the keys required for system security. The security.bin program requires separate users to enter the two parts of the security key to maintain the safety of split knowledge and dual control. The system key must be updated at least once a year to meet the PCI security standa rds. The system key does not expire after one year. The maintenance of the system key is up to each site administrator.

Loading the System Pass Key requires a 16 character password. If more or less characters are entered than required, the system will notify the user of the error and prompt to re-enter the password. The password must be verified on the second entry. To provide a strong password, a mix of alpha characters (upper and lower case) and numeric characters must be used. The site administrator determines the type of strong password to be entered. The system will not check for a mandatory type or set of characters.

Menu Item 2: Save Pass Key to Diskette

Menu item 2 is used for saving the Pass Key in an encrypted file on a diskette. The Master and Pass Keys cannot be saved on the same diskette. Therefore, two diskettes are required for the save process. Ensure that the diskette is clearly labeled ‘Pass Key’ as it cannot be interchanged with the Master Key diskette.

Saving the Master Key and Pass Key diskettes will allow the administrator a full recovery if the system is corrupted. The administrator does not have to remember the two passwords. However, if one or both of the diskettes are bad, the administrators must have the means to recover by re-entering the passwords from another means.

Note: It is not possible to save the Pass Key to diskette after exiting the program.

After creating and saving the Pass Key, the user must exit and another user with permission level 10 must log in and run security.bin to enter the Master Key.

Menu Item 3: Enter New System Master Key

Loading the System Master Key requires a 20 to 28 character password. If more or less characters are entered than required, the system will notify the user of the error and prompt to re-enter the password. The password must be verified on the second entry. To provide a strong password, a mix of alpha characters (upper and lower case) and numeric characters must be used. The site administrator determines the type of strong password to be entered.

Menu Item 4: Save Master Key to Diskette

Menu item 4 is for saving the Master Key in an encrypted file on a diskette. The Master Key cannot be saved on the same diskette as the Pass Key. Therefore, another diskette is required for the save process. Ensure that the diskette is clearly labeled ‘Master Key’ as it cannot be interchanged with the Pass Key diskette.

Note: It is not possible to save the Master Key to diskette after updating the System Keys or

exiting the program.

Menu Item 5: Get Pass Key from Diskette

Menu item 5 is used to restore the Pass Key from diskette to allow full recovery, if the system becomes corrupted or loses its Security key information.

Menu Item 6: Get Master Key from Diskette

Menu item 6 is used to restore the Master Key from diskette to allow full recovery, if the system becomes corrupted or loses its Security key information.

Menu Item 7: Update System Keys

Menu item 7 is used to update the system with the new keys or the keys rest ored from diskette. If the system is not updated, the new keys will not take effect. The menu will let you know when the system is being updated and when the update is complete.

Security for your company and patrons using your equipment is the uppermost concern. The key information and diskettes must be kept in a secure location such as a safe. A compromised system must be reported immediately and can result in fines and other monetary losses if the compromised cards are the result of poor key management and/or the lack of security.

5 – Audit Trail

To provide traceability for system access and actions taken that may affect sensitive data, an audit log is created. A directory c:\cfn3audit is used and daily audit files are created and stored in that directory. The audit files will start with the prefix of AU and will be followed with a two-digit year, two-digit month, and two-digit day. The file type or suffix is ADX.

The following is a list of items that will be logged in the audit file:

• Any command typed from SC3 window or from the Profit Point SPCL Func 30 will be recorded in the system audit file.

• Any command executed by the system as a cron will be logged in the system audit file.

• If a script is run, such as in a cmd file, it is possible that every command in the script will be logged in the audit file.

• When a bin command is executed that results in the change to the system configuration a message is sent to the audit log that the system has been updated.

Audit Trail

PC and CFN Time Synchronization

A cron is provided with a command file to allow the two systems to be synchronized. The command timetont.cmd is used to set the PC clock to the same time as the CFN embedded system clock. A cron is provided to provide a hidden background task to set the PC clock every day at 2:30 A.M.

Date and Time Receipts, Messages, and Date

6 – Receipts, Messages, and Date

Date and Time

The system has a battery-back-up clock, and even after a power failure the clock maintains the correct date and time, so you normally will not have to enter the date. The Site Controller does not automatically adjust for daylight-savings time, so you will have to adjust the Site Controller’s clock manually if daylight-savings time is observed in your area.

Also, the Site Controller’s clock can gain or lose time over a period, just as a watch can. You may require to adjust it periodically. For information on how to enter the date and time or display the date, refer to “How to Enter Commands and Data” on page 3-4.

Receipt Heading and Footing

The receipt heading is printed above and the receipt footing is printed below the body of each printed receipt. The information in the receipt heading and footing usually includes the name of the store or gas station, and may also include the address and some other messages, such as Thank You and Please Come Again.

Note: If your site is connected to a financial network and allows debit transactions, Federal

regulations for receipts for electronic funds transfers apply (these regulations are included in an appendix to this manual).

Characters @C, @N, and @O

Note: The card reader device must support track 1 to make use of this feature.

The characters @C are used to center text.

If the characters @N are found, they will be replaced by the customer’s name if known. The line will print regardless of whether or not the name has been found.

If the characters @O are found with the @N, the line will not be displayed unless the customer’s name is known.

How to Enter Receipt Heading and Footing

Use the command LOAD HEADING or LO H to enter the heading and footing to be printed on the receipt and to enter the form feed length. The heading and footing you load will print on all printers at the site.

Receipts, Messages, and Date Receipt Heading and Footing

The number of receipt heading and footing lines allowed is determined by the Site Controller configuration. Each heading and footing line can have up to 24-characters. The form feed length is the number of blank lines between the last line of the receipt and the first line of the next receipt.

• Use line number 0 for the form feed length.

• Use 1 through 9 for the heading line numbers; line number 1 is the first heading line, line number 2 is the second heading line, and so on.

• Use the line number plus ten for the footing line number; line number 11 is the first footing line, line number 12 is the second footing line, and so on.

• For credit-card receipts printed by a console, use lines 20-29 to provide space for the customer’s signature.

For a blank line, press the space bar and then Enter after HEADING LINE? One blank line is automatically printed after the heading and one blank line is automatically printed before the footing.

LOAD HEADING;C (LO H;C)

A single comma terminates an item, so to use a comma in your heading or footing, you must type two commas. You can use the C option with the command LOAD HEADING.

Form feed length is in lines. The user typed two commas on the third heading line. One comma will be printed on the receipt.

Special Printer Functions

If your site has island card readers equipped with the Novatronics or the Star® printers, you can create special effects on your receipts. Use the following special characters to perform the special printer functions. Be aware that other printers, including some stand-alone printers, ignore these characters.

Console and Island Card Reader

\nn Set left margin to nn spaces.

Console Only

&&B Use bold print &&C Use condensed print (15-characters per inch). &&N Use normal print (12-characters per inch). &&E Use expanded print (7.5 or 6-characters per inch, depending if condensed or normal

in effect). &&U Use expanded print (return to condensed/normal). &&Lnn Set margin to nn (nn is one or two digits). &&V;text Wait for insert, print text on inserted slip (check validation)

Receipt Heading and Footing Receipts, Messages, and Date

The C and N options may be followed by any combination of B or E. B causes the text to be struck twice, giving a bold effect. E puts the print into expanded mode. The second footing line is the same as the first, so it will overstrike the same characters, causing a bold print effect.

The terminal will display the line number and the text for each heading and footing line. For more information, refer to “Printing an Invoice” on page 27-2.

• Line numbers 1 through 9 are heading lines.

• Line numbers 11 through 19 are footing lines.

• Line numbers 20 - 29 are for Credit Card receipts.

• Line numbers 30 - 39 are the invoice header.

• Line numbers 40 - 49 are the invoice footer.

• Line 0 is the form feed length.

How to Change Heading and Footing Lines

To change one heading or footing line, just use the LOAD HEADING command to enter new text for that line.

To erase all receipt heading and footing lines and reenter new ones, use the command LOAD HEADING;IC. The I option erases all current heading and footing lines and the blank form feed lines at the end. The C option allows you to enter new heading and footing lines.

Receipts, Messages, and Date Island Card Reader Messages

How to Load Messages

Use the LOad MEssage (LO ME) command in the site controller to load broadcast messages. These messages will appear on the first line of the Island Card Reader (ICR) or in-the-pump reader display. To access other lines of a multiple line display, use the tilde character (~) and the line # (1 to 4) before the message. The display times for messages 1 to 3 must be loaded as 0 seconds; message #4 display time must be greater than 0 seconds. This will allow the messages on all 4 lines to display at the same time instead of one line at a time.

Note: If more than four messages are loaded (5-10), omit the tilde preceding the text for line

four and the messages will be scrolled in line four of the display. Many reader displays will have less than four lines. In these cases, only load messages for the lines that are available.

[P:]* LO ME;C ↵ Message number? 1 ↵ Display in sec? 0 ↵ Message? ~1WELCOME TO JOE’S ↵ Message number? 2 ↵ Display in sec? 0 ↵ Message? ~2TODAY’S SPECIAL IS ↵ Message number 3: 3 ↵ Display in sec? 0 ↵ Message: ~310W30 OIL ↵ Message number? 4 ↵ Display in sec? 9 ↵ Message? ~4HAVE A NICE DAY!↵ Message number? ↵ [P:]*

If GASBOY ICRs are on a site along with multiple line display readers, the messages are usually loaded as described in the previous example. If the GASBOY ICRs will be communicating on the POS loop, the broadcast messages will not be displayed on them. The GASBOY ICRs will display the message that is in the reader program under step-type 1, which is usually Slide card or Insert card.

How to Add or Change Fuel Products Fuel Products

7 – Fuel Products

When you are creating products, you must make several choices about how you will set up your products, tanks, and price codes. Things to remember include:

• Fuel products are usually in category 1 or categories 1 and 2.

• The command LOAD FUEL lets you assign the product code, price code, and tank number that will be used for a transaction. The command does this by letting you assign a product code, price code, and tank number to a hose.

• When fuel is pumped, the price charged is determined by the price code assigned to the hose by LOAD FUEL. You do not require to assign a price to the product itself.

• A product is also assigned to a tank by LOAD TANK. The product you assign this way is used only for the PRINT TANK report; it is not used for transactions. To avoid confusion, you must usually assign the same product to a tank with LOAD TANK that is assigned with LOAD FUEL.

• If you charge different prices for the same type of fuel, you may want to create different products in the system with the LOAD PRODUCT command. For example, if you have a bulk diesel pump that has a different price from diesel at the other pumps, you may want to set up a separate bulk diesel product. Or, if you have some pumps on the system that are full serve, you may want to set up separate full-serve and self-serve products. (creating different products from the same fuel allows you to separate the products in reports. If you do not want to separate them in reports, you can use the LOAD PRICE command to create different price codes for the same fuel).

• You normally do not require to use inventory tracking for fuel products. Use Tank inventory.

How to Add or Change Fuel Products

Use the following procedure to add a new product:

• Ensure that the product information has been initialized with REMOVE PRODUCT;A. Do not use this command if you have already loaded product information into the system; it will clear all product information.

• Create a new product with LOAD PRODUCT;A. The product codes are used to assign products to tanks and for fuel authorizations for Proprietary Cards. They are included in the transaction data, and in the product, sales, and totals reports. Each product is assigned a product code, product name, category.

• The low price and high price are not used for fuel products. The tax code for fuel products is currently ignored (no tax), as taxes are included in the price.

• Assign products to pumps or hoses with LOAD FUEL. Price codes are also assigned to pumps or hoses with this command.

How to Change Fuel Product Information Fuel Products

You may use the C option with the command LOAD PRODUCT;A.

• The product code is used in transaction and pump printouts, and can be used for sorting printouts. Up to 99 products or departments are allowed. Fuel products are usually 1-10 or 20-29, with 30 and above for merchandise products. If you are using a Profit Point POS, the department # is used as a base for the PLU file.

• The category is used for grouping products. For example, you could have fuel and merchandise categories. Category 1 is usually used for fuel products. You can print out specified categories with PRINT TOTALS, PRINT SALES, and PRINT PRODUCT.

• The product name is displayed on consoles and optionally, island card readers, and is printed on receipts and sales and product reports. It can be up to 12-characters long. Not all characters may print, so do not make the first digits of any two names the same or you will not be able to differentiate between them on reports.

• The minimum price and maximum price are used for products that allow price override. For fuel products, they must both be 0.

• The tax code specifies which tax table to use for calculating taxes for a product. Taxes for fuel products are included in the price. If no taxes are to be added to the product, specify tax code 0.

Fuel Products How to Remove a Fuel Product

The example below shows all products in category 1, which is the category usually used for fuel products. No high price has been entered, as is usual for fuel products, so the printout shows —No Override—. The 0.00 under Price means the pump price comes next example subtracts two cents from all levels from the price table and is assigned with the LOAD FUEL command.

You can also use product ranges with PRINT PRODUCT to print specified product numbers. For example, the command PRINT PRODUCT 1-4 prints the information for products 1 through 4.

How to Remove a Fuel Product

Type REMOVE PRODUCT.

REMOVE PRODUCT (REM PRO)

[P:]* REMOVE PRODUCT ↵ Product code? 1 ↵ [P:]*

You may use the C option with REMOVE PRODUCT.

Fuel Product Inventory

Product inventory is initially disabled. You may want to keep it disabled for fuel products, and just use the tank inventory, or you may want to enable product inventory so that inventory information for fuel products appears in the product information printout.

If you have the same product assigned to more than one tank, the inventory information in the product printout can be the total for all the tanks. If you have more than one product assigned to one tank (such as diesel sold at two different prices), the inventory information in the product printout will not be very meaningful, so you must probably not enable inventory in this case.

Page 7-4 MDE-4871 CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows® XP Embedded - Version 3.6 · August 2010

Page 67

How to Enter Fuel Product Inventory Fuel Products

When you use the commands ADD TANK and SUBTRACT TANK, the inventory for the corresponding products is also adjusted if inventory recording is enabled. However, the ADD INVENTORY and SUBTRACT INVENTORY commands do not adjust the tank inventory, since more than one tank could be assigned the same product. This means that it is better to use the TANK commands to adjust inventory for fuel products.

The LOAD TANK command does not adjust the inventory for products, so enter 0 for the inventory when you do the LOAD TANK and use ADD TANK to enter the inventory amount when inventory is enabled.

When the commands ADD or SUBTRACT T ANK or INVENTOR Y are exec uted, th e amount added or subtracted is logged.

If the site has tank gauges, the gauges can be set up to adjust product inventory, but such an arrangement is not required by the Site Controller.

How to Enter Fuel Product Inventory

Type LOAD INVENTORY.

LOAD INVENTORY (LO IN)

[P:]* LOAD INVENTORY;C ↵ Product? 1 ↵ Quantity? 4300 ↵ Reorder level? 1000 ↵ Product? 3 ↵ Quantity? 2900 ↵ Reorder level? 800 ↵ Product? ↵ [P:]*

When inventory goes below the reorder level a message is printed on the log printer.

When the product inventory and tank figures do not match, one use of the LOAD INVENTORY command is to set the book inventory to equal the physical inventory.

Tank Commands

How to View Current Ta nk Inventory

To display the tank inventory for all tanks, use the command PRINT TANK or P TA. The terminal will display the tank number (T#), total quantity (Totals), and reorder level.

In addition, if a CFN-compatible T ank Monitor™ System (electronic tank gauge) is installed on the tank and connected to the Site Controller, then the measured tank quantities and tank ullage will be displayed. Ullage is the amount of remaining space or unused capacity in the tank.

Commands Description

T# Tank number of tank. Product Name of product stored in tank. Total Inventory quantity in tank. Reorder Reorder level at which a warning message will be logged. Gauge Measured quantity in tank according to Tank Monitor System (TMS). Diff Difference between inventory and measured quantities. % Difference expressed as a percentage over or short. Temp Measured temperature as reported by the TMS. Used by the TMS to

compute temperature-corrected gallons.

Ullage The amount of usable empty space remaining in the tank.

How to Add to and Subtract from Tank Inventory Counters

If a TMS is present, the site can be configured to automatically add deliveries that are detected by the TMS to the inventory totals. If your site has this capability, you will not require to add deliveries to inventory manually and to do so will produce an error in the totals.

You might wish to make this adjustment if a physical measurement of the fuel gives a result more or less than the amount indicated by the counter, in order to bring the perpetual inventory amount back into line with the physical inventory amount.

MDE-4871 CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows® XP Embedded - Version 3.6 · August 2010 Page 8-1

Page 70

Tank and Pump Commands Tank Commands

If product inventory is enabled (see set tank inventory counter), ADD or SUBTRACT TANK will adjust the inventory for the corresponding product. The C option is available for both commands.

Add Tank

To add to the Site Controller tank inventory counters, proceed as follows:

1 Type ADD TANK.

2 Enter Tank Number.

3 Enter Quantity.

ADD TANK (AD TA)

[P:]* ADD TANK ↵ Tank number? 14 ↵ Quantity? 5000 ↵ [P:]*

The amount added is logged.

Subtract Tank

To subtract from the Site Controller tank inventory counters, proceed as follows:

1 Type SUBTRACT TANK.

2 Enter Tank Number.

3 Enter Quantity.

SUBTRACT TANK (SUB TA)

[P:]* SUBTRACT TANK ↵ Tank number? 2 ↵ Quantity? 100 ↵ [P:]*

The amount subtracted is logged.

How to Set Tank Inventory Counters

Use the command LOAD TANK or LO TA to set the Site Controller tank inventory counters equal to the amount of fuel in the tanks. The quantity must be in the same units (gallons or liters) that the pumps use. The Site Controller tank inventory counters decrement each time fuel is pumped.

The product code entered with the LOAD TANK command associates the tank with a product so inventory updates for that product can be done when the commands ADD TANK and SUBTRACT TANK are used. Inventory updates for products are done only if inventory keeping is enabled for the products, but inventory is always kept for tanks.

Page 8-2 MDE-4871 CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows® XP Embedded - Version 3.6 · August 2010

Page 71

Method-of-payment Pricing Tank and Pump Commands

You can specify a product and reorder level with the LOAD TANK command. When the tank inventory level dips below the specified reorder level, the message Tank #xx Below reorder level is printed on the log printer. An asterisk (*) next to the totals in the printout of the PRINT TANK command shows that the tank is below the reorder level.

The command LOAD TANK does not update the inventory for products, because there could be more than one tank with the same product. If you want to keep track of inventory for products, use the LOAD TANK command to enter the tank information, but enter 0 for the inventory level. Then use ADD TANK to enter the current inventory level.

When the ADD or SUBTRACT TANK commands are executed, the amount added or subtracted is logged.

The product codes entered with the LOAD T ANK command affect inventory, but do not affect transactions. The product codes and tank numbers entered with the LOAD FUEL command are the ones that are used for transactions.

To set the Site Controller tank inventory counters, proceed as follows:

1 Type LOAD TANK.

2 Enter Tank number.

3 Enter Quantity.

4 Enter Product code.

5 Enter Reorder level.

LOAD TANK (LO TA)

[P:]* LOAD TANK ↵ Tank number? 1 ↵ Quantity? 30000 ↵ Product code? 1 ↵ Reorder level? 5000 ↵ Tank number? ↵ [P:]*

Use the C option to load more than one tank.

Method-of-payment Pricing

Some sites want to charge different prices for fuel products depending on what sort of payment is offered. For example, the cash price for unleaded gasoline might be lower than the credit price.

The Site Controller stores these multi-level prices in a special table in its memory called the price table. Price codes are arbitrary numbers assigned to fuel products or hoses to link tho se fuels or pump table entries to entries in the price table.

MDE-4871 CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows® XP Embedded - Version 3.6 · August 2010 Page 8-3

Page 72

Tank and Pump Commands Method-of-payment Pricing

The command PRINT PRICE (see below) allows you to see the prices that have been assigned to existing price codes. Then the command LOAD PRICE can be used to change them.

When pumps and fuel products are first set up on the system, price codes can be assigned directly to pumps and hoses using LOAD FUEL (the standard method for fuels).

Price codes assigned with LOAD FUEL appear in the PRINT PUMP report, not in PRINT PRODUCT.

After prices have been initially set up, in almost all cases prices for fuel products will be changed with the LOAD PRICE command, rather than with the LOAD PLU or LOAD PRODUCT commands that are normally used with merchandise.

Price Code Levels

If the pump used for a transaction has a price code assigned to it, then that price code is used, even if another price look up happens to be assigned to the product. The price charged is determined at the time of the transaction by the customer’s method of payment. Each price code can have multiple levels of prices, one for each method of payment that is accepted.

The Site Controller uses a number to refer to each price level. These numbers are fixed and cannot be changed. Values for particular price levels, such as Debit and Proprietary Card, require to be loaded for particular price codes only if that method of payment is accepted for the product or pump assigned to that price code.

Price Code Level Description

Level 0 Price level 0 is the default fallback price (though the Site Controller can be configured for a different

fallback price level). This is the price that is displayed on the pump. If no price is loaded for one of the other price levels, transactions that would normally be charged at that level will be charged at the fallback price. If you use only one price level, load only price level 0. Price level 0 must be loaded for every price

code that is used. Level 1 Price level 1 is the cash price. It is charged when the CASH key on the console is pressed. Level 2 Price level 2 is the credit price. It is charged when the CREDIT key on the console is pressed or a

credit card is run through the console card reader or an island card reader. Level 3 Price level 3 is the debit price. It is charged when the DEBIT key on the console is pressed or when

a debit (automated teller) card is run through the console card reader or an island card reader.

Additional price levels, referred to as club prices, are available for use with Proprietary Cards. If a price level is encoded on a Proprietary Card, that price will be charged. If no price level is encoded on Proprietary Cards, the credit price will be charged.

Note: You must always load a price for at least level 0 for every price code you use. The pump

will be disabled if you do not load a fallback (level 0) price.

How to Enter Price Code Levels and Prices

Use the command LOAD PRICE or LO PR to enter price levels and prices for price codes. The number of price levels and prices allowed is determined by the Site Controller configuration.

If you are changing prices when the site is open for business, first shut down the site with the command STOP. This will allow transactions in progress to finish, but prevent new transactions from starting when you are changing prices. When you have finished changing prices, use the command RUN to restart the site.

LOAD PRICE (LO PR) [P:]* LOAD PRICE ↵ Price code? 2 ↵ Price level? 1 ↵ Price? 1.119 ↵ Price level? ↵ [P:]*

How to Change Price-code Prices

It is a good idea to write down or print existing prices before making changes, and again after making changes to check your work.

To change prices for a price code, use LOAD PRICE or LO PR to enter new prices for the price levels for that price code.

There are two methods for changing prices for price codes.

MDE-4871 CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows® XP Embedded - Version 3.6 · August 2010 Page 8-5

Page 74

Tank and Pump Commands Method-of-payment Pricing

The first method is to enter the new price for each price code and price level that you wish to change. This method uses LOAD PRICE;C command.

[P:]* LOAD PRICE;C ↵ Price code? 1 ↵ Price level? 0 ↵ Price? 1.149 ↵ Price level? 1 ↵ Price? 1.169 ↵ Price level? 2 ↵ Price? 1.199 ↵ Price level? ↵ Price code? ↵ [P:]*

The other method is to enter the amount of the price change as a quantity to be added to or subtracted from the old price. This method can be used to raise or lower either all price levels of one price code or all price codes by a specified amount.

The form for the second command is LOAD PRICE code level change where:

• code is replaced by the price code(s) to be changed (either a number or * for all price

codes),

• level is replaced by the level(s) to be affected (either a number or * for all levels),

• change is replaced by a + or - sign and the amount of the change in dollars and cents.

This example raises all prices for all codes (indicated by the first asterisk after LOAD PRICE) and all levels (the second asterisk) by five cents.

All Codes All levels

[P:]* LOAD PRICE * * +.05 ↵ [P:]*

This next example subtracts two cents from all levels in price code 3.

[P:]* LOAD PRICE 3 * -.02 ↵ Price level ? ↵ [P:]*

Note: LOAD PRICE;I erases all price levels and price code prices for all pumps that have

been assigned price codes. This will disable all pumps. You must re-enter new prices for all price codes and re-enable all pumps with ENABLE PUMP after you use this command.

How to Delete a Price Code or Price Level

Use the command REMOVE PRICE or REM PR to delete one or more price levels for a given price code.

REMOVE PRICE (REM PR)

To delete an entire price code, delete all the price levels under that price code. Use the C option to remove more than one price code.

How to Set Up Day-Night Pricing

You can have day-night pricing by using the RECORD command or one of the editors to create command files that contain the LOAD PRICE commands for the day and night prices. Then the command files can be executed automatically at the appropriate times by loading the proper cron (user-defined commands executed at specified times) entries with LOAD CRON (refer to

Pump Commands

How to Assign Products, Prices, and Tanks to Hoses

Use the command LOAD FUEL or LO FU to enter the product code, price code, and tank number to be assigned to each pump, or to each hose for Multi Product Dispensers (MPD

Pumps that dispense the same product may be assigned different price codes. For example, a full-service pump that dispenses unleaded regular fuel may be assigned a different price code than a self-service pump that dispenses the same fuel. Price levels and prices are assigned to price codes with LOAD PRICE.

The LOAD FUEL command allows you to specify different products, prices, and tanks for each hose on a pump. If the system uses MPDs, a pump is one side of the MPD. That is, each dollar and gallon display corresponds to one pump. For regular dispensers and pumps, there is one hose per pump. The pump, not the hose, is authorized for transactions.

The number of pumps and associated hoses in the system is determined by the Site Controller configuration.

You may use the C option with the command LOAD FUEL.

Command Description

P# The pump number is the number of the pump, dispenser, or MPD (in the above example,

pumps 1 and 2 are MPDs).

— The hose number is not displayed, but is used to determine the order in which hose

information for an MPD is displayed (pumps 1 and 2 have three hoses). For other pumps

and dispensers, the hose number is 1. T# The tank number is the number of the fuel storage tank drawn upon by that hose. Pr The product code is the number of the product assigned to the hose with LOAD FUEL. Use

PRINT PRODUCT to view the product names that correspond to the numbers. Pc The price code controls what prices will be charged for each method of payment such as

cash or credit. It is the code entered with LOAD FUEL. Price The price is the current fallback value assigned to the price code with LOAD PRICE (the

fallback price is defined in this chapter under Price codes). Totals The quantity totalizer is the cumulative quantity pumped for the hose. These totalizers will

roll over periodically when all 9s are displayed. $Totals The dollar totalizer is the cumulative dollar sales for the hose. Dollar totalizers will also roll

over periodically. Rate The pulser rate is the number of pulses produced per unit of measure, such as gallons. It

applies only to fuel products, and is an accurate way of measuring flow. $ means that

dollars are being counted, L means that liters are being counted, and G means that gallons

are being counted. Limit The fill limit is the amount automatically requested, unless overridden, when a customer

asks for a fill (the limit assigned to privately issued cards can be different than the hose fill

limit). Slow The slow flow cutoff point determines how soon before reaching a limit or preset amount

the slow pump mode is activated. The purpose of slow flow cutoff is to prevent the pump

from coasting past the preset amount or limit. Slow flow cutoff point is always specified in

gallons or liters.

How to Add or Change Merchandise Products Merchandise Products

9 – Merchandise Products

When you are creating products, you must make several choices about how you will organize your system and how you will handle pricing. Things to consider include:

• Do you want inventory levels shown in the product printout?

• Do merchandise products represent individual items, departments, or some of each?

• Will the system use fixed prices or manually entered prices, or some of each? Will user override be allowed for fixed prices?

How to Add or Change Merchandise Products

Use the following procedure to add a new product.

• Make sure the product information has been initialized with REMOVE PRODUCT;A. Do

not use this command if you have already loaded product information into the system; it will clear all product information.

• Create a new product with LOAD PRODUCT;A. Each product is assigned a product code, product name, category. If price override is allowed, or if prices are to be entered at the time of the sale, products are assigned a low and high price.

• Use LOAD PLU to enter price look ups for products that have default or non - overridable prices.

• Use LOAD INVENTORY to enter the initial number of items or dollar inventory amount for products that will use inventory tracking. For dollar inventory, use ENABLE PRODUCT and specify type 4.

How to Create a New Merchandise Product

You may use the C option with the command LOAD PRODUCT;A.

Merchandise Products How to Create Special Merchandise Products

• The product code is used to add merchandise products to a sale when the product does not have its own key on the console. It can also be used for sorting printouts. Up to 99 products are allowed, including fuel and merchandise products.

• The category is used for grouping products. For example, you could have fuel and merchandise categories. You can print out specified categories with PRINT TOTALS, PRINT SALES, and PRINT PRODUCT.

• The product name is displayed on consoles and is printed on receipts and sales and product reports. It can be up to 12-characters long. Visually only the first 5-digits are displayed in printouts, so do not make the first 5-digits of any two names the same or you will not be able to differentiate between them on reports.

• The minimum price and maximum price are used for products that allow price override. If override is not allowed, enter 0 for the maximum price.

• The tax code specifies which tax table to use for calculating taxes for a product. Tax tables are loaded in the Site Controller configuration or by TAX.BIN (the actual tax names are loaded with LOAD TAX).

How to Create Special Merchandise Products

You can create special products for keeping track of cash withdrawals, refunds, bottle deposit refunds, and such. These are not real products, but they allow you to have information about cash withdrawals and refunds included in your produc t and sales reports.

To create a cash withdrawal or refund product:

ENABLE PRODUCT (E PRO)

[P:]* LOAD PRODUCT;A ↵ Product code? 20 ↵ Category? 9 ↵ Product name? Refund ↵ Minimum price? .01 ↵ Maximum price? 150.00 ↵ Taxes? 0 ↵ [P:]* ENABLE PRODUCT ↵ Product code? 20 ↵ Type ? 1 ↵ [P:]* LOAD PRODUCT;A ↵ Product code? 21 ↵ Category? 9 ↵ Product name? Withdr ↵ Minimum price? .01 ↵ Maximum price? 150.00 ↵ Taxes? 0 ↵ [P:]* ENABLE PRODUCT ↵ Product code? 21 ↵ Type ? 3 ↵ [P:]*

• Use LOAD PRODUCT;A to create a new product. Special products must be in their own category so they can be printed out separately.

• Give the product a descriptive name, such as WITHDR or REFUND.

• For cash-withdrawal special products, the minimum and maximum prices are the minimum and maximum amounts that can be withdrawn in one transaction.

• For refund special products, the minimum and maximum prices are the minimum and maximum amounts for a refund.

• Special products do not normally have taxes.

How to Enter Merchandise Product Price Lookups

Use LOAD PLU or LO PLU to assign prices to products (PLU stands for price lookup). Prices assigned with LOAD PLU appear in the PRINT PRODUCT printout. Prices for merchandise products can be overridable or non-overridable. If you have a Profit Point POS, use the PLU price book resident on the Profit Point for PLU pricing. You may use the C option with LOAD PLU.

• Default Price: You can specify a default price for the product with the LOAD PLU

command. The price can be preceded by a dollar sign but it is not required. If you enter a High price with the LOAD PRODUCT command, the user can override the default price within the range of the low and high price fields. If you enter 0 as the high price, the console user cannot override the price and the product printout will show -No Override- in the price range fields.

• Manually Entered Price: If you do not enter a price for a product, or enter a price of $0,

the user must always enter the price within the range of the high and low price fields. If you have a price of $0, you must specify a high price.

Merchandise Product Inventory

Inventory for products is initially disabled. The commands LOAD INVENTORY and ADD INVENTORY enable inventory recording. You may also use ENABLE PRODUCT to explicitly enable inventory recording.

Inventory is normally kept by item. You may spec ify that inventory be kept as a dollar amount instead. This is also done with ENABLE PRODUCT.

Inventory amounts appear in the PRINT PRODUCT printout. You can use PRINT PRODUCT;A to see if inventory is enabled for product.

How to Enable Merchandise Dollar Inventory

To enable inventory recording for a product with dollar inventory rather than item inventory, use ENABLE PRODUCT and specify type 4 (type 4 tracks inventory in dollars, not units). There will be a dollar sign before the inventory amount in the PRINT PRODUCT printout.

ENABLE PRODUCT (E PRO)

[P:]* ENABLE PRODUCT ↵ Product Code? 11 ↵ Type? 4 ↵ [P:]*

How to Disable Merchandise Inventory Tracking

Inventory tracking is initially disabled. It is disabled automatically when LOAD INVENTORY, ENABLE PRODUCT type 5, or ADD INVENTORY is executed.

DISABLE PRODUCT (DI PRO)

[P:]* DISABLE PRODUCT ↵ Product Code? 10 ↵ Type? 5 ↵ [P:]*

T o disable inventory tracking once it has been enabled, use DISABLE PRODUCT and specify type 5.

Tax Types Setting Up Tax Tables

10 – Setting Up Tax Tables

Tax Types

There are three tax types on the Site Controller:

• Each sales tax in most areas can be calculated as a percentage of the price of the items to which the tax applies. For all or most tax percentage rates, you are able to simply specify the tax rate and the rounding rule. These taxes are called type 0 on the Site Controller , and they are the default type.

• Taxes that the law requires to be calculated according to a tax table are type 1.

• Type 2 taxes use a combination of percentage and tax table. The tax on the whole-dollar amount of the price is calculated by multiplying by the tax’s percentage rate, and then a table is used to calculate the tax on any remaining fraction of a dollar ($0.01-0.99) of the price. For example, if the price of an item is $10.45, the tax on $10 would be calculated as a percentage of $10, and the tax on the 45 cents would be looked up on a tax table by the Site Controller.

You can configure the CFN3 application to recognize up to eight different taxes, depending on what the law in your area requires.

Ta x Accumulators

The Site Controller can have up to eight tax accumulators, which keep a running total of taxes collected in up to eight categories. Most sites will probably use only one or two. The tax percentages are specified in the Site Controller configuration. Taxes are assigned to products with LOAD PRODUCT. Each time a taxable product is sold, the tax is calculated, charged to the sale, and credited to the correct tax accumulator.

Cumulative tax totals are also maintained. The cumulative tax accumulators are reset by RESET TOTALS;A or RESET TOTALS;I.

Setting Up Tax Tables Tax Accumulators

How to Enter Tax Accumulator Names

To enter tax accumulator names, proceed as follows:

1 Type LOAD TAX.

LOAD TAX (LO TAX)

[P:]* LOAD TAX ↵ Tax #? 3 ↵ Name? Alc.Tx ↵ [P:]*

2 Enter the Tax.

3 Enter the Name (limited to seven characters).

The command LOAD TAX with the I option initializes all tax accumulators. All tax names and amounts are cleared.

How to Print Tax Accumulators

Use the command PRINT SALES;I 0 or P SA;I 0 to print the tax accumulators. This will print the amount in each tax accumulator for each shift or day.

Tax as Percentage Setting Up Tax Tables

Ta x as Percentage

If the tax laws in your area allow type-0 tax calculations for all items-and most areas do allow this, you do not require to use this chapter. Instead, refer to the Tax Rate and Tax Rounding Boundaries parameters on menu 3 of the CONSOLE configuration program (which is discussed in MDE-4773 CFN III Configuration Manual for Windows XP) for instructions on setting up a type 0 tax.

For each product you define through the LOAD PRODUCT command, you will use CONSOLE to specify the tax that applies. Tax rates are specified in hundredths of a percent. For example, a 7.8 percent tax is specified as 780, though it displays as 7.80.

You can also specify the upward rounding breakpoint, in tenths of a cent (which is hundredths of a dollar). For example, if taxes are to be rounded up at $0.005 and down below $0.005, you will use CONSOLE to enter a 5 for the tax rounding boundary.

Note: The tax rates and tax r ound ing boundari es ar e ignored if the tax tables are loaded using

the TAX prog ram.

When to Use Tax Tables

Setting up tax tables is a complicated procedure, so use tax tables only if the law in your area requires them. If you are required by your local or state tax laws to use a tax table instead of tax percentages, read through this entire chapter carefully before starting to construct the table; then come back to the beginning of the chapter and start to work.

For each different tax lookup table the law requires you to use, use the TAX program explained in this chapter to build a tax table. The table you build through the TAX program is similar to the kind traditionally used in many (POS) terminals and cash registers.

You may set up 1-8 different taxes using these tables. Determine how many tax lookup tables you require to build. Then for each one, follow the instructions in the remainder of this chapter.

How to Set Up a Tax Table

The following are the five major steps involved in setting up a tax table:

• “Preparing a Compressed Description of Tax Data” on page 10-4.

• “Allot Storage Space for Your Tax Information” on page 10-7.

• “Assign a Tax Number and Name to Each Table” on page 10-7.

• “Build a Tax Table” on page 10-7.

• “Back Up Your Tax Data” on page 10-10.

This chapter explains how to complete all those steps. It also explains how to use T AX to print your tax information and how to update a tax table when tax rates change.

Setting Up Tax Tables How to Set Up a Tax Table

Preparing a Compressed Description of Tax Data

If your local taxing authorities require a tax lookup table, Gasboy or your local distributor may already have a compressed (short and concise) description of it. Otherwise, use the instructions in this section to compose a compressed description of each tax table you will use. (an example of a compressed description follows item 7 in the list immediately below).

1 Obtain a complete tax lookup table from the taxing authorities. Using the instructions in this

section, you will examine your tax table and prepare a compressed description of it. Then you will enter the compressed description into the CFN3 software.

2 You will require to determine what type of tax table you are using, type 1 or type 2.

• Type 1 taxes are determined from a lookup table only.

• Type 2 breaks the taxable amount into two parts. The first part is a whole dollar amount, with its tax calculated at a percentage, possibly rounded. The second part of the taxable amount is the remainder after the whole dollar amount is taken out. Its tax is calculated by the table lookup (similar to the type 1 lookup table). The total tax is the sum of the tax on the two parts.

3 Construct a worksheet for the tax table. Include the following columns (refer to the sample

graphic that follows):

Option Description

From In this column, write the low amount in each range of taxable amounts

for which a constant tax amount applies. For example, a customer may pay a tax of $0.03 on any sales amounts from $0.46 to $0.63. You will place $0.46 in the From column for that range.

To In this column, write the high amount in the range, for example, $0.63 in

the example immediately above. Tax For each range, write the tax charged on the amounts in the range. Amt Diff Subtract the From amount of the preceding range from the From amount

of the current range, and write the result in this column. Tax Diff Subtract the Tax amount on the preceding row from the Tax amount on

the current row, and write the result in this column.

The sample graphic below shows information from a typical tax table. The columns labeled From, To, and Tax correspond to the columns on a tax table like those issued by taxing authorities. The columns labeled Amt Diff and Tax Diff have been calculated from the tax table information. The Tax Diff is usually a constant.

Note: In the sample table, it is always $0.01.

Amt Tax Amt Tax

4 Complete your worksheet, indicating the amount differences and the tax differences for each

range of taxable amounts.

5 Examine the Amt Diff column on the sample worksheet. Note that there is a regular pattern.

Five $0.18 taxable amount increments are followed by one $0.19 increment, then there are four $0.18 increments, and one $0.19 increment. This pattern repeats-or loops-itself eight times. Now examine the Amt Diff column of your worksheet. Try to find a repeating pattern in the tax amount increments.

6 Find a repeating pattern to the increments in the Tax Diff column (it may be that they are

always the same, as in the sample).

7 Then find a single repeating pattern that accounts for the increments in both Diff columns. If

the increments in the Tax Diff column are not all the same, this may be more difficult, and the pattern will almost certainly repeat itself less often. You will use the repeating patterns you find to build the tax table through the TAX program.

Setting Up Tax Tables How to Set Up a Tax Table

To compose your compressed description, write down the following:

• The tax number (1-8: defined in configuration).

• The tax type. For tax tables, it is type 1 or 2.

• The method for figuring taxes on amounts that exceed the largest amount in the table: you can use a fixed rate with a rounding rule, or you can apply the table to the excess amounts.

• The tax increment; almost always 1 cent.

• The smallest taxable amount.

• The formula for determining the individual entries in the table. You do this by means of three TAX program commands: increment, loop, and end loop.

An increment tells the TAX program an Amt Diff and a Tax Diff and the number of consecutive times to apply those differences. For example, in the sample worksheet, the first Amt Diff is 0.18, and that difference occurs five consecutive times. For the sample table, and for most tax tables, the tax increment is always $0.01.

A loop tells the TAX program to repeat the commands within the loop the number of times you specify . You start a loop with a loop command and end it with an end loop command. So, when two or more increments occur in a repeating pattern, you can describe the repeating pattern in terms of a loop. Loops may be nested-that is, the steps repeated by a loop may include other loops.

An end loop terminates the last loop that was started. Thus, if there are two loop commands and then an end loop, the end loop will terminate the second loop. Another end loop is required to terminate the first loop.

A compressed description of the sample table follows:

• Tax number: 1

• Tax type: 1

• Tax increment: 1 cent

• Smallest taxable amount: $0.10

• Loop 8 times Increment taxable amount by $0.18 and tax by $0.01 five times

Increment taxable amount by $0.19 and tax by $0.01 one time Increment taxable amount by $0.18 and tax by $0.01 four times Increment taxable amount by $0.19 and tax by $0.01 one time End loop

The sample table is a simple example. In your table, you may have a non-repeated sequence of increment commands before the first loop. Or, you may have many loops, or loops within loops. Or, you may have a non-repeated sequence of increment commands at the end of the table, after all loops are ended.

Most tax tables must reduce to a compressed description. However, if you encounter some difficulty, consult your salesman or distributor for help.

How to Set Up a Tax Table Setting Up Tax Tables

Allot Storage Space for Your Tax Information

The CFN3 software already has eight records in its storage space for its 1-8 tax rates, and it must create additional records for the information in your tax tables.

When you have a compressed table description, count the additional records it will require. Allow one additional record for each of the following:

• The table beginning.

• Each increment command.

• Each loop command.

• Each end-loop command.

• The end of the table.

After you have prepared a compressed description of all your tax tables, determine the total number of additional records you will require for all of them. Then add eight to your total. This gives the total number of records you require for your tax.

You may use up to 200 records for tax. If your total is larger than 200, consult your ASR or distributor to help you reduce the commands in your compressed descriptions.

When you have determined the number of records you require, use the TABLE program to define the number of records in table number 27, the tax table (for instructions, refer to MDE-4773 CFN III Configuration Manual for Windows XP). Ensure that your total includes the original eight records required by the CFN3 software and all the additional records required for your tax tables.

Assign a Tax Number and Name to Each Table

Use the LOAD TAX command to assign a tax number (1-8) and name for each table you will use. Be sure you also assign a number and name to each of the taxes you want the CFN3 software to calculate as percentages with a rounding factor-that is, those taxes for which you do not require to build a table.

Build a Tax Table

The example that follows shows the prompts and user responses to enter the sample table into the CFN3 software. After entering the compressed description, the user requests a printed summary of the table, then quits and saves the table.

Study the sample and compare it with the compressed description to help you see how to use the TAX program.

If you respond with n at the All tax increments one cent prompt, you will subsequently be prompted for the tax increment amount after each Increment how many times? prompt. Otherwise, the command assumes that one cent applies to all increments.

Note: The printed summary is a representation of the commands (increment, loop, and end

loop) that are defined in the table.

The Loop Level column shows each loop. A plus sign (+) marks the beginning and end of the loop, and a dashed vertical line extends over the interior of the loop. If there were loops nested within loops, other pairs of plus signs and dashed lines would be printed, indented so they would not overlap.

The Rec Nbr column shows the number of each record in the table.

The Record Type column lists each command in the table.

The Apply Times column shows the number of times the command is to be applied. For increment commands, this means the number of rows for which the specified increments apply. For loops, this means the number of times the commands inside the loop are to be repeated.

The Amount Increment column shows the smallest taxable amount, and for the increment commands, it shows the increment from the Amt Diff column of the worksheet.

TAX Program: Options and Arguments

You can use several options and arguments with TAX when you initially run the program. The table below shows the options preceded by a semicolon and the arguments preceded by a dash.

Page 10-8 MDE-4871 CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows® XP Embedded - Version 3.6 · August 2010

How to Set Up a Tax Table Setting Up Tax Tables

T o enter an option, type a semicolon, then the option letter. To enter an ar gument, type a space, then a dash, then the argument character. Options and arguments for TAX are not case-sensitive. That means you may type them in upper case or lower case. They are shown below in upper case.

Option Effect

;I CAUTION: Do not use this option after you have entered tax information you want to save. It initializes

the tax tables-that is, it erases all the tax information. All taxes become type 0 (rate tables rather than lookup tables), but tax numbers and names remain unchanged. The program prompts you to confirm that you want to initialize, then it erases the tax information and quits.

-P Used with this argument, TAX prints a summary of all t axes whose names have been loaded with LOAD TAX.

-R Used with this argument, TAX prints all information from the tax rate table in a raw form suitable for the RESTORE command to use in restoring the tax table. The standard command file SYSBACK calls T AX with this argument. Normally, you will not use this argument.

-? Used with this argument, TAX runs in tutorial mode. When any prompt is displayed for the first time, it is preceded by its help message. Y ou can print the help message again by entering a question mark (?) in response to the prompt when it appears again. This mode is useful if you have not run TAX many times.

If you specify an option not on this list, TAX will print Invalid option and quit. If you specify an argument not on this list, it will print a list of valid options and arguments, then quit.

When you are ready to build your tax table, use the TA X program. The following paragraphs list the prompts that TAX displays and explains how to respond to them.

Tax number, P, P#, T, T#, or Q to quit?

• Enter a tax number to create or edit a table for that tax code number (remember that you must already have assigned, with the LOAD TAX command, the number you enter to create a new table). If you enter a tax number , the next prompt ap pears.

•Enter P to print a summary of all taxes whose names have been loaded with LOAD TAX. The summary is the same report that prints if you use the -P argument with the TA X program.

•Enter P# to print a summary of the specified tax (specify the tax’ s number in place of the # sign).

•Enter T to print a tax table. Then, in response to the next prompt, enter the number of the table you want to print. Y ou can compare this printout with the tax table you obtained from the taxing authorities or a bank to verify that the tax has been entered correctly.

•Enter T# to print a table of the specified tax (specify the table’s number in place of the # sign).

• To exit the program, enter Q or press RETURN.

Tax type, Q to quit, RETURN for same?

•Enter 0, 1, or 2 to specify the tax type for the tax number you entered. The default is zero.

• 0 (zero) indicates a tax rate with rounding. If the tax number you specified had been defined as a type 1 or 2, entering a zero here redefines it as a type 0. For taxes of type 0, TAX does not do anything other than set tax type and table maximum.

• 1 (one) indicates a table created through a compressed description (as explained in this chapter). The program continues the prompts through Smallest taxable amount (cents)? Then it begins at the point where it was when you last entered data for the table. You can add commands to the end of the table or delete commands from the end of the table.

Setting Up Tax Tables How to Set Up a Tax Table

• 2 (two) indicates a tax that is calculated as a percentage of the whole dollar amount, and then uses a lookup table for any remaining cents Press RETURN to use the same type-that is, to indicate you are not changing the tax type. If the tax number is type 0, the program returns to the first prompt. Zero is the default type, so if you have not defined the tax number as a type 1 or 2, it is a type 0.

• To exit the program, enter Q.

Enter command (I, L, E, Q, D, P, M, or S)?

This prompt will be repeated until you enter Q to quit. Enter the commands, in order, that define the compressed description of your tax table. Each command you enter causes the program to ask for other information:

•Enter I to give an increment command. You will be prompted for the number of times the increment applies and the taxable amount increment (Amt Diff on your worksheet).

•Enter L to start a loop. You will be prompted for the number of times to repeat the commands that occur before the end loop command (the program will not allow you to quit until you end all the loops you start).

•Enter E to end the last loop that was started.

•Enter Q to quit the program. You will be asked whether or not you want to save the changes you have made to the table. You may respond with Y to save the changes, N not to save the changes, or P to print the current table definition so you can decide whether or not to save it (ensure that you cannot quit if there are loops that have been started but not ended).

•Enter D to delete the last command you entered, including your responses to the command prompts. If you enter D again, the previous command is deleted. You can continue entering D until you delete as many entries as you wish, back to the Smallest taxable amount prompt.

•Enter P to print the current table definition so you can review it. Refer back to the example for a sample printout of the table definition.

•Enter M to modify a record. You will be asked for the number of the record to be modified, then you can change that record’s smallest taxable amount.

•Enter S to see a display of the table’s status showing the record size and the number of records used and available.

If you want to quit the program without saving any changes or ending y our loops, use ^C (press and hold the CTRL key, then press C).

Back Up Your Tax Data

After you have used the TAX program to enter a tax table, run SYSBACK to back up the data.

Reports Reports, Cash Drawer, and Shifts

11 – Reports, Cash Drawer, and Shifts

Note: The material covered in this chapter is not the same as the material in the Point Of Sale

(POS) and Shift Change manual. For example, the reports discussed in this chapter contain dollar and quantity amounts of fuel and merchandise; the POS and Shift Change reports include everything that occurred at a site during a shift or day.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The following similar commands are not identical in their functions: NEXT SHIFT and NEXTSHFT, NEXT DAY and NEXTDAY, LOAD DRAWER and LDDRAWER, ADD DRAWER and ADDDRAWER.

Reports

The Site Controller maintains sales totals for the last three shifts, the current shift, daily totals for the current and previous days, and cumulative totals.

The shift totals are changed when a shift change is entered with the LOAD SHIFT, NEXT SHIFT, and NEXT DAY commands. Up to a total of nine shifts can be loaded.

The daily totals are reset with the RESET TOTALS command. This command moves the current daily totals to the previous day’s totals.

The daily, cumulative, and shift totals are reset to zero with the A option (RESET TOTALS;A). The I option (RESET TOTALS;I) resets only the cumulative totals to zero.

Each transaction is entered in three places: daily totals, current shift totals, and cumulative totals (see Figure 11-1 on page 11-2).

The cumulative, current day, and current shift totals are running totals, and they are added to whenever a sale takes place. All other totals are buffered totals. The RESET TOTALS command resets the buffered totals to zero.

Cash drawer totals are also kept for one day’s worth of shifts plus the current shift. Sales totals and cash drawer totals are usually printed at shift-change time, but they can be printed at any time, since the totals are available until the next day’s shifts.

How to Print Sales Reports

Use the command PRINT SALES or P SA to print the total cash, debit, club, and credit sales in dollars from the time the total was last reset. The shift, daily, and cumulative totals can be printed with the command PRINT SALES.

The default printout format includes the current-shift totals and the cumulative totals, which are the totals since you last used the RESET TOTALS;A or RESET TOTALS;I command (the examples in this chapter assume that the RESET TOTALS;A command is used every 24 hours or so).
