APTRA Advance NDC Supervisor’s Guide 7 Status, Error and Exception Reporting G Overview 7 This chapter describes the logging of all the following activities: Local journal log Local electronic journal (EJ) log Local device status reporting Local device fault status reporting Handling device failures. When a device fails or runs out of media, the following events occur: The device fault is displayed on the operator interface, if present, while in Out of Service, In Service, Offline and Suspend modes A status message for the appropriate device is sent to Central The status message is logged in the journal An entry is added to the System Application’s Device Status List. The terminal responds to all subsequent Terminal Commands and Transaction Reply Commands from Central by reporting the error condition until the condition has been cleared. Status, Error and Exception Reporting Local Journal Log 7-2 APTRA Advance NDC Supervisor’s Guide Confidential and proprietary information of NCR. Unauthorised use, reproduction and/or distribution is strictly prohibited. Local Journal Log 7 The paper or electronic journal provides a local log of all significant cardholder and supervisor activity. As well as recording information from Central, the terminal adds supplementary information to the log. In this section, we give you details of the following messages: Device status messages Security trace messages Presenter error message Deposit envelope length error message Communications trace Card capture message SST off ‐ line/on ‐ line messages Recycling and Retract counts. Note: For simplicity, ‘the journal’ is used to mean the journal printer or the electronic journal (EJ). Thus the phrase ‘printed on the journal’ means printing on the journal printer, and/or writing to the EJ. This section also provides information on determining whether retracted notes were retracted during a dispense or deposit transaction on recyclers and on general journaling on cash acceptors. Device Status Messages 7 Whenever an exception status message is sent to Central, a single ‐ line message is printed on the journal. This, together with the preceding transaction message sent from Central, gives a record of the transaction. Format of Journaled Messages 7 The format of the message is: *TTTT*M*D*SSS---- Table 7-1 Journaled Message Format Message Pattern Description TTTT Transaction serial number M Message type 1 ‐ unsolicited 2 ‐ solicited D Device code Status, Error and Exception Reporting Local Journal Log APTRA Advance NDC Su pervisor’s Guide 7-3 Confidential and proprietary information of NCR. Unauthorised use, reproduction and/or distribution is strictly prohibited. Format of Unsolicited Sensor Messages 7 Unsolicited sensor messages are journaled to report the device status. If the application is in any mode other than Diagnostics, the following sensor status message is logged in the journal: *TTTT*M*P*1011111001100,M- Table 7-2 Unsolicited Sensor Message Format If , while in Diagnostics, a sensors unsolicited status message is sent due to cassette removal and insertion, the journaled message does not include bytes 1 to 8 of the device status message. Although the complete message including the cassette sensor status is sent to Central, the journal contains only the following: * *1*P* Format of Rejected Messages 7 If any message from Central is rejected and specific command reject has not been selected, the following message is journaled: *TTTT*2* SSS---- Device status field 11111 that has the following format: AA---A, M-BB, R-CC----C AA---A is the transaction/device status represented as a string of decimal digits BB is the first byte of diagnostic status represented as two decimal digits CC----C contains supplies status information represented as a string of decimal digits Message Pattern Description Message Pattern Description TTTT Transaction serial number M Message type (1 ‐ unsolicited) P Device Identifier Graphic M- Message data from the device Status, Error and Exception Reporting Local Journal Log 7-4 APTRA Advance NDC Supervisor’s Guide Confidential and proprietary information of NCR. Unauthorised use, reproduction and/or distribution is strictly prohibited. If any message from Central is rejected when you have selected the specific command reject option, the following message is logged in the journal: *TTTT*2**GNN* Table 7-3 Rejected Message Format Journal Log Example 7 A typical example of a journal log printout is shown in the following diagram: Figure 7-1 Journal Log Printout For further information about status messages, refer to the APTRA Advance NDC, Reference Manual, Chapter10, “Central to Terminal Messages”. Format of Journaled Messages 7 The group separator is an unprintable character. If group separators are present in the journal data, they are represented as asterisks (‘*’). This applies to both the EJ and hardcopy journal. The position of the first four asterisks in a message is fixed. Further asterisks are added to the remainder of the message to represent the group separators. The following example shows how a message Message Pattern Description TTTT Denotes spaces if no transaction reply is received NN Reject error number G Category S ecu ri t yTr ace N u mb e r (NNN) S ecu ri t y Tr ace M essa g e Date /Tim e Ex cept i on M essa g e M essa g e Ty pe (M) De vi ce Id ent ifi cat i on Gr aph i c (E= D i spense r) S upp li es S tatus R -( CC C ) D i a g nost i c S tatus M-( BB ) Tr ansact i on / De vi ce S tatus (AA-A) Tr ansact i on S e ri a l N u mb e r (TTTT) *055*02/29/00*14.48* SUPERVISOR MODE ENTRY * *1*R*8 * *1*R*7 * *1*L*2,M-05 * *1*R*9 * *1*P*200000,M*056*02/29/00*14.54* SUPERVISOR MODE EXIT *0000*1*R*7 *0000*1*R*9 *0000*1*P*200000,M* *1*D*0,M-00,R-4 * *1*D*0,M-00,R-4 * *1*D*0,M-00,R-4 * *1*D*0,M-00,R-4 * *1*D*0,M-00,R-4 * *1*L*2*M-05 * *1*L*2*M-05 *0000*2*E*200000000,M-02,R-11131 Status, Error and Exception Reporting Local Journal Log 7-10 APTRA Advance NDC Supervisor’s Guide Confidential and proprietary information of NCR.

For example, the following journal entry shows that two 1 US dollar and one 10 US dollar notes were successfully escrowed, and five notes were rejected: Entry Description A/C Account information The account information is only printed if the JournalCustomerData property in the CashInCustom.accfg is set. By default, account information is NOT printed <Description> The information being journaled Examples of the information to journal are OPERATION OK and CARDHOLDER CANCEL The values can be seen in CashInCustom.accfg ESC The counts for notes in the escrow Total is the total number of notes in the escrow Denomination Counts are the details of the denominations in the escrow See Note 1: and Note 2: VAL The counts for notes in the vault Total is the total number of notes in the vault Denomination Counts are the details of the denominations in the vault See Note 1: and Note 2: REF The counts for refunded notes Total is the total number of refunded notes Denomination Counts are the details of the refunded denominations See Note 1: REJECTS The total count for rejected notes For further information on the rejected counts, see “Rejected Counts” on page 7 ‐ 12 <Category 2 Total> The total count for counterfeit notes See Note 1: and Note 3: <Category 2 Denomination Counts> The details of the denominations in the counterfeit note counts See Note 1: and Note 3: <Category 3 Total> The total count for suspect notes See Note 1: and Note 3: <Category 3 Denomination Counts> The details of the denominations in the suspect note counts See Note 1: and Note 3: Status, Error and Exception Reporting Local Journal Log APTRA Advance NDC Su pervisor’s Guide 7-11 Confidential and proprietary information of NCR. Unauthorised use, reproduction and/or distribution is strictly prohibited. *1234*1*w*0, M-00, R-1 A/C: ************5678 OPERATION OK ESC: 003 USD1-002,USD10-001, VAL: 000 REF: 000 REJECTS: 005* Note 2: If the SST is configured to move inserted notes directly to the cassettes (direct deposit), the deposited notes are reported only in the vaulted counts and not in the escrowed counts. The following example is the same deposit as shown in Note 1, made on an SST configured for direct deposit: *1234*1*w*0, M-00, R-1 A/C: ************5678 OPERATION OK ESC: 000 VAL: 003 USD1-002,USD10-001, REF: 000 REJECTS: 005* Note 3: If no notes are identified as counterfeit or suspect, the counterfeit (Category 2) and suspect (Category 3) note counts are not included. For examples of journaling for notes identified as counterfeit or suspect, see “Counterfeit and Suspect Notes” on page 7 ‐ 12. Note 4: For some cash acceptor variants, if a specific hardware error occurs such as the interlock door being opened during a consumer transaction, reserved screen U0137 may be journaled even though no notes have been inserted. The transaction counts, however, are accurate. Supplies and Severity Supplies 7 and severity information can be journaled whenever a device status message is sent to the host. Information can always be included or be included based on the setting of bit 3 of Enhanced Configuration Parameter option 45. By default, the supplies information is always journaled. Configuration is required to add severity information or to journal supplies and severity based on Enhanced Configuration Parameter option 45 settings. For details of the configuration, refer to Chapter 5, “Configuring Advance NDC and Associated Components” in the APTRA Advance NDC, Developer’s Guide .

Unauthorised use, reproduction and/or distribution is strictly prohibited. Cardholder Details If cardholder details are to be included, the format is as follows: 7 *w*SSS----* Description A/C: ************ xxxx ESC: xxx VAL: xxx REF: xxx * When journaled, the account number is masked. If the account number is less than or equal to four digits, all are masked. If more than four digits are journaled all are masked except the last four, as in the following example: A/C: ************1234 Rejected Counts 7 The rejected counts are journaled at the same time as refunded counts. The journal entry looks similar to the following: ESC: 000 VAL: 000 REF: 004 EUR5-001,EUR10-000 EUR20-000,EUR50-000 EUR100-000,EUR200-000 REJECTS: 003 The above example shows that a total of four notes have been returned to the cardholder, comprising one 5 euro note and three notes rejected as unrecognised. Note: If the ESCROW FULL message is journaled, the rejected counts may be incorrect. Counterfeit and Suspect Notes 7 If the ECB 6 regulations are being applied and counterfeit (Category 2) or suspect (Category 3) notes are identified, this is journaled in the <Description> field. If both counterfeit and suspect notes are identified, the journal contains entries for both note categories. Example Counterfeit Note Journal Entry If counterfeit notes are identified, the journal entry looks similar to the 7 following: *1234*1*w*?, M-00, R-1 A/C: ************5678 COUNTERFEIT NOTES PRESENT The remainder of the transaction is journaled as described in “Cash Acceptor Journaling” on page 7 ‐ 9.
