SECTION 2: BASIC OPERATION

ARGO USER MANUAL

INTRODUCTION

This section describes the basic operation of the terminal. The following topics are covered:

1.CONTROL PANEL LAYOUT. Describes the layout of the terminal’s control panel.

2.KEYPAD OPERATION. Describes the use of the alphanumeric keypads.

3.MENU-BASED OPERATION. Gives a general overview of the terminal display interface.

4.CUSTOMER TRANSACTIONS. Summarizes the actions involved in typical customer transactions. In addition, the voice-enabled transactions feature is described.

CONTROL PANEL LAYOUT

The user interface of the terminal consists of the LCD screen, receipt chute, card reader, speaker, headphone jack (visually impaired), and 24 keys on three keypads. The Function keys are arranged in two four-key groups, one group on either side of the LCD display. The Function keys on the 7” touch screen display are on the screen. The main keypad consists of 10 alphanumeric keys, two arrow keys and four large control keys, all located in a 16-key group beneath the LCD screen.

The main keypad and control keys have an integral raised Braille symbol to conform to the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act

The 12.1 inch screen has touch-reactive F keys on the sides and most closely resembles previous ATM functionality. The F keys will respond even when the user wears gloves.

The 7 inch screens are fully touch-reactive and have no external F Keys. The 7 inch screen is capacitive sensing and therefore requires human touch (no gloves) to operate. The introduction of E-receipt technology is available on this model.

ARGO USER MANUAL

MENU-BASED OPERATION

The terminal operates as a menu driven system. Messages and menu options presented on the LCD display screen guide the user’s actions. The desired menu option is selected by pressing one of the keys located to the left and right of the display. For the purpose of security, many screens time-out after a preset time interval, usually 30 seconds. The time-out length may vary depending on the function being performed.

When a screen time-out occurs, a screen is presented that asks the user if more time is needed. If the user chooses NO, the Customer Welcome screen will be presented. If YES is chosen, the user is returned to the function that was active prior to the time-out. If the user does not make a selection within an additional 30-second countdown period, the terminal will automatically go to the Customer Welcome screen.

Ensure all procedures in the ARGO Installation Manual have been accomplished. The unit should be off, with the power cord and communications cable connected. Power on the unit by pressing the power switch on the power supply to the ON position. Shortly after the unit is turned on, the top menu will be displayed. An example top menu is shown below.

From the top menu, you can either:

1.Enter the terminal system management area by pressing the key next to MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS.

Note: You will have to enter an appropriate password to view the Management Functions menu.

Management Functions may also be entered by pressing and holding the CTRL key and then depressing the number 1 key and releasing both.

2.Activate the terminal to perform customer transactions by pressing the key next to CUSTOMER TRANSACTIONS.

Note: On fully touch screen models, just press the displayed buttons to select your preferred option.

11

ARGO USER MANUAL

Choosing Management will take you to the password screen. An Error Code of 246 WILL be displayed upon the first start up. You MUST change the master password before any other configuration operations will be allowed.

The master password is actually made up of two parts, the ID and the password. The master ID is 00 and cannot be changed. What must be changed is the default master password for ID 00 of 1234.

Management Functions can be entered from the Top Menu screen upon startup (representative screen on the previous page), or by pressing the “Blank Key” (lower right corner) and the number 1 at the same time.

It will ask you to enter the ID and Password. Press 001234. It will take you to the new Favorites Menu. Press 0.

It will then take you to the Main Menu.

Select 4 Password Maintenance, then 1 Change User Password

Enter the new password ONLY. You are user 00 and already logged in, so putting 00 here is not necessary. The new password can be 4-12 digits. Do not use birthdays, telephone numbers, social security numbers or the like. Make it something you can remember, but not so difficult as to be forgotten. Guard it closely. If the password is lost or forgotten, the password cannot be changed or recovered in the field. The main board must be returned to Triton for a reset. A service charge will apply.

If you will have additional people that will be accomplishing closes and replenishing cassettes, you may add them and provide passwords here. New users can be ID 01 - 99.

There are additional error messages that will appear, and must be cleared before the ATM will go into service. Refer to Section 5 of this document for the minimum setup requirements and document 07100-00016 XScale/ X2 Configuration Manual for additional terminal setup procedures.

Take this opportunity to change the lock combination. Refer to Appendix C or D for your lock. The same rules for combination numbers as passwords apply.

12

ARGO USER MANUAL

If you do not select a menu choice within 30 seconds, the terminal will automatically default to the Customer Welcome screen (a benefit of this feature is that in the event of a power interruption, the terminal will automatically begin accepting customer transactions shortly after power is restored).

CUSTOMER TRANSACTIONS

A customer begins a transaction by selecting from the Customer screen options. They insert their ATM card into the card reader of the terminal. The card must be inserted so that the magnetic stripe can be scanned by the card reader’s sensor. If the customer inserts the card incorrectly, a warning message will be displayed, accompanied by several beeps to get their attention.

If there is a problem reading a card, make sure the customer is inserting the card correctly. Most problems are the result of inserting the card incorrectly.

Once the card has been read successfully, a surcharge message, if applicable, may be displayed (the surcharge message may be displayed at the end of the customer’s transaction selection). The customer must then enter their secret Personal Identification Number (PIN) code. Once the PIN has been entered, the transaction type and account are selected, and the desired amount of the transaction, if needed. The transaction will be processed, typically in a matter of seconds.

The figure following shows how ATM transactions are handled. If the transaction was processed successfully, the customer is prompted to retrieve the requested cash (for withdrawal transactions) and/or the applicable transaction receipt, as needed. If the transaction was declined, a short receipt indicating the problem is printed.

13

ARGO USER MANUAL

ATM transaction processing.

The ATM sends the customer transaction request to a processor. A processor is a financial intermediary, such as an Independent Sales Organization (ISO), bank, or other financial institution that provides transactionprocessing services for ATMs. The ATM must be set up with a particular processor before customer transactions can take place.

The processor routes the transaction to the appropriate ATM network. An ATM network is a regionally or nationally organized clearing house for financial transactions, that deals directly with the appropriate financial institution, such as the customer’s bank or credit card company, in order to complete the transaction. The processor will select the appropriate ATM network to use based on factors such as the type of ATM or credit card used, location of the customer’s bank, or other considerations. The transaction may be transferred between several networks before ultimately reaching the customer’s bank or credit card company.

The ATM network routes the transaction to the appropriate bank or other institution, confirms successful completion of the transaction, and sends a confirmation message back to the processor. If the request was for a cash withdrawal, an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) takes place to debit the funds (including any surcharge fee, if applicable) from the customer’s bank account and credit the funds to the processor’s bank account.

The processor forwards a confirmation message to the ATM (and an authorization to dispense currency, in the case of a cash withdrawal). The ATM dispenses the requested currency, if necessary, and provides the customer with a printed receipt as a record of the transaction.

The processor credits the merchant’s account for the amount of any cash withdrawals (plus surcharge fees, if collected), typically by the end of the next business day.

14

ARGO USER MANUAL

VOICE-ENABLED TRANSACTION

The terminal provides voice feedback via an integrated output jack, enabling sight-impaired users to plug in a set of headphones and receive spoken instructions to assist them in using the ATM.

A raised symbol helps a user locate the headphone jack. The ATM will automatically detect when a headphone has been plugged into the jack, and will immediately switch into voice mode. Initially, a brief spoken tutorial will orientate the customer to the ATM control panel interface. Once the customer begins a transaction, spoken prompts will provide feedback and guide the customer through the successful accomplishment of the transaction.

Headphone jack location. (Typical)

E-RECEIPT TECHNOLOGY

The seven inch screen terminals provide for E-Receipt technology. The customer is offered the choice of (a) the standard printed receipt, (b) having the receipt sent to his phone as a text message, or (c) sent to an E-mail account.

The E-mail information is not retained by the ATM or Triton, and will not be used for any marketing purposes. The account is not shown on the screen, only the * figures as the account is entered.

NOTE:

A seven inch screen without a printer MUST use E-Receipt or no receipt.

A seven inch screen with printer can be configured to allow E-Receipt choice. (From the Main Menu: 6 Terminal Configuration > 0 More Options > 6 Electronic Receipts)

The 12 inch screen model does not allow for E-Receipt operation.

The dispensing mechanism delivers the appropriate number of notes from the note cassette to fulfill the customer’s withdrawal request. The purpose of the reject area or cassette is to accept and hold notes that have been transferred from the note cassette but not dispensed. Some situations that could cause the mechanism to reject notes are:

(1) Multiple notes stuck together

(2) Note width too short or long.

Other conditions that could cause a reject are described in the following section, NOTE CONDITION.

**CAUTION**

DO NOT RECYCLE REJECTED NOTES INTO A CASSETTE! DOING SO COULD CAUSE MORE REJECTS AND/OR CURRENCY JAMS.

18

ARGO USER MANUAL

NOTE CONDITION

The number of rejects can be directly influenced by the technique used to load the cassettes and the quality of the currency. Notes loaded into the mechanism cassettes must be in fit condition if a high level of performance (low reject and failure rate) is expected from the unit. Fit notes are defined as those that do not possess any of the defects listed here:

Used Note Defects

Adhesive or sticky substances on the surface of the paper.

Tears extending more than 1/2” from the edge of the currency.

Tape on the surface of the currency used for repairing, patching or any other purpose.

Staples, pins, or any other foreign body attached to the notes.

Corner folds of a size greater than 1/2” on either axis.

Two or more notes joined by any means.

Excessively crumpled or crinkled notes.

Tears, holes, or missing sections in the body of the currency.

PREPARING NOTES

Use the following procedures to prepare notes before inserting them into a note cassette.

Preparing Used Notes

1.Move the packer plate to the rear of the cassette (toward the handle).

Note: The packer plate action will depend on the type of cassette in use. Some cassettes require you to maintain pressure on the packer plate as needed while loading notes. Other cassettes use a locking mechanism to hold the packer plate in the loading position. On these cassettes, pull the packer plate all the way back to the handle end of the cassette and turn the key to latch the packer plate into the loading position.

Pull the packer back. Some cassettes allow the packer-plate to be latched in position using the key-lock. (Insert)

2.Count the number of bills that remain in the cassette, if any. Next, count the number of bills that are being added into the cassette.

3.Add the number of bills being placed into the cassette to the number that remained. The total number of these bills will be entered in the Enter Cassette Quantity option (shown in step 6 of CASSETTE CLOSE

PROCEDURES).

4.Make sure the note pile is as even as possible. If necessary, use your hands to smooth and level the pile.

5.On cassettes that do not use a packer plate locking

mechanism, release the packer plate against the notes. Load notes.

If the cassette uses packer plate locking, turn the key to release the catch, allowing the packer plate to compress the notes.

6.Close and lock the cassette. Remove the key. Slide the cassette back into its compartment in the dispenser. Make sure the cassette is fully inserted! You will feel the cassette latch securely into the snap catches.

7.Perform the removal and loading steps for the other cassette.
