Operating SystemIntroduction
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.

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.

System OverviewSite 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.
MDE-4871 CFN III Manager’s Manual for Windows® XP Embedded - Version 3.6 · August 2010Page 3-1
Site Controller IIIReaders
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.
