D ESCRIPTION :
IMPORTANT: The PIN MASTER KEY must be entered before the
PIN Working key.
NOTE: The PIN MASTER KEY was referred to as the MASTER
KEY in previous versions of ATM software.
The PIN MASTER KEY is used to protect the PIN WORKING KEY
during manual entry or downloading of the working key. This key
is a 16-character string, consisting of the digits 0-9 and the letters
A-F. Your processor must provide you with the PIN MASTER KEY.
For security reasons, when entering this key, a ‘*’ is displayed in
place of the actual character. Since it is not possible to view the
key while it is entered, the key must entered in twice to make sure
it was entered properly.
To enter a digit 0-9, simply press the key that has that digit, and a
‘*’ will appear. To enter the letters A-F, first press the key,
then press the key that has the letter you want on it. The first press
of the key will display the first character above the number. Sub-
sequent presses will display the characters in sequence. When
the character you want is displayed, press the
key to ‘lock in’ the letter. If your next character is a letter, you must
press the key again. Press the key to clear
the entry and start over. Press the key to back
up and erase a character.
Normally, the PIN MASTER KEY contains only one part. However,
some keys may contain multiple parts. If this is the case, separate
individuals will hold the parts. If your key has multiple parts you
must answer the question “ANOTHER KEY PART?”, with a YES
until all parts are entered.
In some versions of ATM software the
PIN MASTER KEY consists of TWO
16-character strings: a LEFT KEY
BLOCK and a RIGHT KEY BLOCK:
Each block consists of some combi-
nation of the digits 0-9 and the Hexa-
decimal (“Hex”) characters A-F. Fol-
low these instructions if your ATM
uses LEFT and RIGHT KEY
BLOCKS.
Selecting the LEFT KEY BLOCK or
RIGHT KEY BLOCK option will dis-
play the appropriate key-entry screen,
