Special system setup

EDS/CCIS product names

Most card networks record the volume and dollar amounts of fuel purchased. EDS/CCIS also records the
type of fuel purchased. The first two characters of the product’s name are sent to EDS/CCIS as the product
code.

The product codes that EDS/CCIS recognizes are:

UR unleaded

regular

UP unleaded

premium

US unleaded

super

LR leaded

regular

LP leaded

premium

M1 diesel

#1,

mini-serve

M2 diesel

#2,

mini-serve

F1 diesel

#1,

full-serve

F2 diesel

#2,

full-serve

S1 diesel

#1,

self-serve

S2 diesel

#2,

self-serve

Use the LOAD PRODUCT command to name the fuel products at your site. Name the products

according to the chart above. The first two characters of each name must be the appropriate two characters
shown in the first column. The LOAD PRODUCT command has a 12-character limit for product names, so
use the remaining 10 characters to further identify the product. For instance, a recommended name for self-
serve diesel #2 would be S2_Diesel.

Special operation for EDS/CCIS

Unlike other networks, EDS/CCIS does not have a formal settlement procedure once every 24 hours.
Instead, when your site dials EDS/CCIS to request a transaction authorization, information on the previous
completed EDS/CCIS transaction is transmitted at the same time. If there is a long time between EDS/CCIS
transactions, data on the previous transaction would not reach EDS/CCIS in a timely manner.

In order to be sure that transaction completions are set to EDS/CCIS on a timely basis, load a cron that

will be executed 15 minutes before each hour. This will cause pending completions to be sent to EDS/
CCIS. For example,

LOAD CRON 1 @45 -settle

This command does nothing if there are no pending completions.

The transaction pointer

If you are not regularly polling and resetting the transaction pointer, then you should run the PURGE SITE
command once a day so you do not fill up the Site Controller’s memory.
