Section 4 Maintenance & Troubleshooting
Though the FSC3000-based card systems are designed for years of trouble-free use, you should perform
the following routine maintenance items at the intervals shown to maximize their service life.
4.1 FSC3000 (Remote Only) Maintenance
Make sure FSC cables are secure and FSC3000 has adequate ventilation.
4.2 Fuel Island Terminal Maintenance
Cabinet and Door
Wipe down terminals with warm water, a mild detergent (dish soap) and a non-abrasive cloth. DO NOT
powerwash or even use a garden hose to rinse off the system! You can apply a retail car wax to protect the
finish of the Terminal cabinet and pedestal.
Display
Do not use harsh detergents or any kind of petroleum-based cleaner on the display. Recommended
cleaners:
AR Kleener, Diamond Glaze Anti-Reflective Cleaner.
Keypad
Wipe down terminals with warm water, a mild detergent (dish soap) and a non-abrasive cloth. If Keypad is
damaged, replace it.
Door Locks
Lubricate door locks every six months, or as needed. Use graphite or molybdenum disulfide (“Moly-B”) dry
lubricant. DO NOT apply too much lubricant.
Card Readers
l
Magnetic Card
: Magnetic card readers contain magnetic heads like those on a tape recorder.
Depending on usage and environment (dusty), you should clean the heads daily or every other day to
reduce the number of bad reads. The heads require periodic replacement.
l
ChipKey
: ChipKey readers are a non-maintenance reader. When not reading ChipKeys always verify
with multiple ChipKeys – then replace the reader, if needed.
l
Proximity
: Proximity readers are a non-maintenance reader. When not reading cards always verify
with multiple cards – then replace reader if needed.
Receipt Printer
Inspect receipt printer paper supply as needed. Verify Printer is printing on a routine basis.
Heaters
For units equipped with heaters, it is recommended to verify that they are working when cold weather arrives.
