GASBOY "A" SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY - SUMMARY

As noted throughout this section, Series 1000 cards can be configured to be
compatible with "A" System optical cards. This option must be specified at the
time of order. The following chart summarizes the differences in the Series 1000
when "A" System cards are used:

System ID

1-6 digits long

Lockout Field

Any field of 4-digits or more. Must specify field name at time of
order. If lockout is on 5-digit field, the number of 10K lockout
blocks must be specified at the time of order. If the lockout file
is 6-digits or more, the number of lockouts must be specified at
time of order.

Dual Lockout

Optional second lockout field of more than 4-digits functions
the way that it would on "A" System. Both fields share the
same lockout file and are not independent.

ID fields

Can configure up to four to match "A" System.

Product Limitation

May be in any position on the card. Table must contain same
or similar values as in the "A" System.

Product Authorization

Must be present and may be 1- or 2-digits long. May be in any
position on the card. Table must contain same or similar
values as in the "A" System. If the 2-digit authorization code is
chosen, it is converted internally to a Series 1000 1-digit code.
If the first digit is 0, the product authorization is determined by
the second digit. If the first digit is not 0, all fuels are allowed.
(Examples: 01=1, 04=4, 11=0, 34=0).

Price Level

Is ignored.

Check Digit

Additional entries (PIN, odometer, or manual entry) can be
mandatory or regulated by a check digit on "A" System optical
cards. Mandatory entries must be specified at the time of
order. If entries are regulated by a check digit, up to three
different check digits may appear: PIN, odometer, and manual
entry. A check digit is a digit on the card that indicates
whether the user must make additional entries upon fueling.
The check digits may be in any position on the card and each
may contain a value of either 0 or 1, with 0=not required, and
1=required.

PIN

If PIN is required, the CFN or "A" System algorithm must
be specified as well as the field on which the PIN should
be calculated.

Options

If the Supervisor or Delivery and Dipstick option is ordered and
there is no card number field, these card types use ranges
within the same field as specified for lockout.

Max digits on card

20 for "A" System optical card.
