PAN Suppression in journal records
The middle PAN digits are no longer stored in the Journal. These digits are changed to ‘=’
(0x3D) before being written to the journal files.
Intermediate Screen when Exiting Management
When exiting management functions the terminal will now go to the Customer/Management
selection screen. This will allow for re-entry into management functions before processing any
calls to Triton Connect or the host.
Added "Improper Shutdown" Journal Entry
A new journal record is added to the journal when the terminal detects an Improper Shutdown.
Power Failure During Dispense
Changes have been made to how the terminal logs a power failure that occurs during a dispense
operation. Previous releases would log the transaction record with a dispensed amount of zero
and no reversal. This has been changed to the following if a power failure occurs at this time:
• If an NMD50 dispenser is being used, go out of service with a 238 error. This error can
only be cleared by entering management functions and issuing a purge (Diagnostics-
>Dispenser->Purge). This error cannot be cleared from Triton Connect. Note: in certain
cases depending on if and where a bill was stuck in the feed path when power was lost,
an error could be returned from the initial purge operation (i.e., Note qualifier error). In
this case a second purge may be necessary to clear that error.
• The dispense status code on the journal record will be 238 (power failure during
dispense).
• The transaction journal record will log the full requested amount in “Amount Dispensed”
field of the journal.
• A journal entry will be logged following the transaction record that an unknown dispense
occurred. No reversal will be done.
Note that depending on if a bill was stuck in the feed path and where the bill is located when the
power was lost, the initial purge issued in Management Functions could return an error from the
dispenser.
