Product Limitation Code
Standard Product Limitation Code is a one-digit field used to restrict the maximum quantity
of product dispensed per transaction. When using dual cards, the product
limitation code is usually encoded on only one of the cards, typically a vehicle
card. In dual mag card systems, a field separator takes the place of the digit on
the other card. In a dual optical card system, all of the holes are punched in the
product limitation position on the second card. If the product limitation code
appears on both cards, it must be the same on both.
Product limitation is provided mainly as a safeguard to minimize accidental
spillage. The system operator can load up to ten (0-9) limitation codes with
quantities up to 99999. The vehicle card is generally assigned a limitation code
with the nearest quantity greater than the vehicle’s tank size. If the user
dispenses fuel to the quantity limit of his card, the transaction automatically
terminates (this is called limit cutoff). If the user wants additional product, he can
initiate another transaction and again dispense product up to the quantity limit on
his card.
GASBOY CFN The Series 1000 may be configured with a two-digit limitation code to match a
CFN system with a two-digit code. In this case, the Series 1000 will internally
convert the two-digit code to a Series 1000 one-digit code. If the first digit is zero,
the product limitation is determined by the second digit. If the first digit is not 0,
the two-digit code is converted to limitation code 9. (Examples: 01=1, 04=4,
11=9, 23=9).
"A" System This field can be located in any position on the card. The limitation table should
contain the same or similar values as those loaded on the "A" System.
Product Authorization Code
Standard Product Authorization Code is a one-digit field used to specify the type(s) of fuel a
card can access. When using dual cards, the product authorization code is
usually encoded on only one of the cards, typically the vehicle card. In mag card
systems, a field separator takes the place of the digit on the other dual card. In
optical card systems, all of the holes are punched in the product authorization
code position on the other dual card. If the product authorization code appears
on both cards, it must be the same on both cards.
The system operator can load into the system, up to nine (1-9) authorization
codes with up to five fuel types per code. The user is permitted to access only the
product type(s) loaded into the system for the authorization code encoded on his
card. The authorization code 0 permits access to all fuels.
GASBOY CFN The Series 1000 may be configured with a two-digit product authorization code to
match a CFN System with a two-digit code. In this case, the Series 1000 will
internally convert the two-digit code to a Series 1000 one-digit code. If the first
digit is 0, the product authorization will be determined by the second digit. If the
first digit is not 0, all fuels will be allowed. (Examples: 01=1, 04=4, 11=0 (all
fuels), 34=0 (all fuels).
