System Parameters
With limited lockout, the Site Controller stores one account number per record. It is possible
to use wildcards in digit positions to lockout more than one card with a single record. For
example, if your card format includes subfields for customer number and employee number in
the portion of the account number that is subject to lockout, then you can lock out all cards for
a particular customer with a single lockout record containing wildcards. (See MDE-4315 CFN
III Manager’s Manual for more details.)
When deciding if the space available for limited lockout is adequate to your needs, remember
that it is not necessary to be able to lockout every single card you might issue, only the fraction
of your outstanding cards that might realistically be locked out at any one time. Good lockout
and card recovery policies can greatly reduce the number of accumulated lockouts.
The default is bit mapped, 4 digits, but your choice will depend on your card format, the
maximum number of cards you intend to issue, and the maximum number of cards you intend
to lock out.
10 Disk journal: Enter a Y or N to store transaction data in P: journal.log. If you are using the
shift reporting package, enter Y.

transaction included) to the disk journal. Messages are of type “Event generic” as described in

13 Digits in system ID: The number of digits in the system ID number. The system ID number is
encoded on every privately issued card or Vehicle Module (VM). The system ID number
encoded on the card will be compared with the system ID entered in
item 3 on page 8 . For the
card to work, the two numbers must match (leading 0s are allowed). Up to six digits are
allowed. The default is 6 digits.
14 Digits in account #: The total number of digits in the card information (account) field on
privately issued cards used with the system.
If the card information field is divided into two or three fields (for example, customer number
and card number), this is the total of all the card information fields. The default, as well as the
maximum, is 19 digits.
