This page provides detailed information regarding the accessibility and use of a FasCard/FLEX account's Equipment Types page from within the FasCard Admin Site. |
|
The Equipment Types page is only accessible by users with Admin privileges or with Equipment Setup privileges. This page is used to add, edit, and delete equipment types. The Equipment Types page may contain various configuration options depending on the make, model, and control of the host equipment type. See manufacturer specific functionality for details on what options are available.
Once an equipment type is configured, it will need to be applied to individual Machines before it becomes available for use. |
Navigating to the Equipment Types sub-tab under the Setup tab will display an alphabetical list of the equipment types that have been configured for the system. The default view will list up to 6 equipment types. Once there are more than 6 equipment types, page numbers will appear, allowing the user to scroll through the equipment list. Clicking anywhere on an equipment type row will display the additional details to be configured.
If equipment has previously been set up in an account, there is a possibility that one or more equipment types could be assigned a reader firmware using a different firmware core which may fundamentally affect how other equipment types on different cores could behave within a FasCard/FLEX system. When this is the case, a notification banner like the example above will display, while the Core column of the Equipment Types table will indicate what equipment types are on what version of firmware core.
By default, All equipment is visible when the Equipment Types tab is selected. To filter by location, select the location you want to isolate using the Location dropdown to the right of the Search section.
Functions described in the next few sections are for 'Singlevend' or 'Pulse' type machines. Store configuration may vary. |

Once an Equipment Type is selected, the Equipment Details section displays the basic information for the selected Equipment Type and allows the configuration to be edited. To add a new Equipment Type, click Add New - the same basic fields will be displayed for editing. The equipment type detail section displays the configuration details for a selected equipment type.
|
An existing equipment type may be cloned. This allows the operator to duplicate an existing equipment type to retain the core settings but alter other options (such as pricing) for use in separate locations, without repeating the work of creating the equipment type. The cloned equipment type will retain the original name and be appended with the word "Copy". This equipment name may then be edited as normal. |
To delete an equipment type, navigate to the FasCard Admin site and sign in with an Admin or Equipment Setup account and follow the steps below.
