Access card format
Access format cards are used with a CFN3 using the Attendant Card Handler. These cards are
used to record the full serve attendant number of the transaction in the disk journal file. The site
recognizes the card as an access card when one field separator before the system ID and an A
follow the system ID are encoded on the card.
Access cards have the following layout:
-ssssssAccccccccccccccccccc-yymmllaapprr
-ssssssAccccccccccccccccccc-yymmllaapprr
-ssssssAccccccccccccccccccc-yymmllaapprr
-ssssssAccccccccccccccccccc-yymmllaapprr

is up to 19 digits of account information. This entire area can
be used for a string of information up to 19 digits; or can be broken into
subfields, the total of which cannot exceed 19 digits. For example, if you use
19 digits for card number, you cannot define any other fields. The last two
digits of this field will be the attendant number recorded in the disk journal file.
Usually this 19-digit area is broken down as follows: the first field is a
four- to six-digit card number. Fields after the first field are broken down into
vehicle, employee, account number, department or whatever you specified
when you ordered the system.

Configuration
The Attendant special handler needs to be configured for Reader
and/or Console devices. Open the ATTEND.INI file located in the
SC directory with a text editor. The DEVICE section (illustrated)
contains two lines. The special handler applies to transactions
from readers but not consoles (default). If you want to restrict
transactions at consoles, change the no to yes. The Reader line
may also be edited if you don’t want to restrict reader transactions or there are no readers. The
file is case sensitive, use lowercase letters in your editing.
Reports
The reports package should be configured so that the standard attendant reports track these sales.
To set up the reports package to use the Attendant run the SETUP command.
