Power on Tests 

 

Depending on the setup of the unit, you will need to perform a number of tests.  

 

 

Checking Authorisation Methods 

 

Units can be authorised in a wide variety of ways: 

 

No authorisation required. Unit just records transactions. 

 

PIN pad authorisation. Customer enters a PIN number and/or odometer reading 
to authorise pumps. 

 

Fuel card authorisation. Customer swipes their issued fuel card. A PIN number 
and/or odometer reading may or may not be requested. 

 

Credit card authorisation. Customer swipes credit card to authorise pumps. 

 

HID or CWID key authorisation. Customer passes a coded RFI key in front of a 
reader. 

 

CWID nozzle authorisation. A CWID key is attached to the vehicle filler and a 
reader  is  attached  to  the  pump  nozzle.  Inserting  the  nozzle  into  the  filler 
authorises the pump. 

 

iTrack reader authorisation. A unit attached to the vehicle authorises the pumps 
as it pulls into the forecourt. 

 

All authorisation methods set up on the unit will need to be tested. 

 

Checking Card Reader 

 

Check the card reader to see if it reads approved cards. 

Swipe a test card and check that a transaction can be made. The card is inserted 
with the stripe to the top and on the right hand side. 

Do this for all types of approved cards. 

 

Checking USB Module 

 

The USB module allows downloading of pricing updates and authorised card 
numbers and uploading of transactions. 

 

Perform a test transaction and print a receipt for each hose. 

Insert the Compac Supplied USB key into the reader.  

At the prompt, choose Get Transactions. 

Wait while the transactions are uploaded then remove key. 

Insert the Key into your laptop, open the Transactions folder and see if you can see 
the recorded transactions. 

Check that the receipt information matches the transaction information.
