Send a Command

Send commands to the ATM.

Note: You can only send commands to NCR^® or Diebold^® ATMs.

The following options are available from the Select a Command dropdown field:

• Reset - Select Reset to close all open events on the Event Notifications tab. Closing all events stops email notification timers, so email reminders of an events stops. Fault conditions are cleared on the portal for any faulted hardware listed on the Hardware tab.
• Close - Select Close to send a Shutdown (go out-of-service) command to an ATM. This action results in an out-of-service screen on the ATM. The terminal mode should then show Closed. The network does not process any transactions that are sent from the ATM while in a Closed state. The user must send an Open command to put a machine back in-service.
• Open - Select Open to send a Startup (go in-service) command to an ATM. Prior to sending the Startup, EAD checks the ATM to see if it needs a download (and sends one if the ATM reports that it needs one). It also requests an updated hardware fitness list from the ATM. This information is reflected on the Hardware tab and indicates information and statuses about hardware components that the ATM has installed. The network only processes transactions if the terminal mode is listed as In-Service.
• Full Download - Select Full Download to send configuration data to the ATM. Depending on Terminal Emulation and the type of ATM, this data may include transaction types permitted to local and foreign card holders, transaction to-from account type selections, fast cash amounts, local and foreign BIN numbers, operational timers, and settlement card data, etc. The terminal is placed back into the same mode before the Full Download is sent. If a terminal already has a good configuration, sending another full donwload should not cause any issues.
• Check Download - Select the Check Download option so that when a terminal's configuration is changed by support, a new configuration ID number is generated. The configuration ID number is sent to the ATM as part of the configuration data in the Full Download. Issuing a Check Download command asks the ATM to report its current configuration ID. If the configuration ID where the ATM reports does not match what EAD has for it, a Full Download is automatically sent. Once complete, the terminal is placed back into whatever mode it was in before the command.

The following optional commands can be enabled on a per-FI basis by CPS support: Force Settle, Remote Key Exchange, and Terminal Resync. Open a support case with CPS if you want more information about getting access to these optional commands, as they require training on their use prior to enablement.
