The operation of the ATM 10 configured as described above will be explained with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 6, 7, and 8.

First, the registration process will be described with reference to the flowchart in FIG.

[0021] In the first step 41, the staff member displays the staff panel 2.
1 to turn on a registration mode key (not shown), the circuit device is set to registration mode.

Next, in a second step 42, the staff operates the numeric keypad K1 on the staff panel 21 to enter the ID shown in Table 1 above.
By inputting the number (identification number), the operation range input at the time of electronic lock release operation is executed. That is, I
When the D number "1" is input, the operation range is the refill door 18, the rear door 16, the cartridge ejecting section, and the administrator processing section, and when the ID number "2" is input, the refill door 18 and the rear door 16 are the operation range. , the cartridge ejecting part is the operating range, and I
When the D number "3" is input, the occasional replenishment door 18 and the rear door 16 are within the operation range, and when the ID number "4" is input, only the occasional replenishment door 18 is within the operation range. Here, when inputting the above-mentioned ID number, a three-digit registration number is displayed on the display section of the staff panel 21, for example, "012".

Next, in the third step 43, when the card key 1 is inserted into the card key insertion slot 19 of the attendant card reader 20, the first data area 3 in the format of the magnetic stripe 2 of this card key 1 has the above-mentioned information. The operator code input in advance in the second step 42 is recorded as an ID number, and the second data area 4 has the above-mentioned second
The operation range code inputted in advance in step 42 is recorded, and a 6-digit name code is recorded in the third data area 5, for example, "820094".

Next, in a fourth step 44, a confirmation process of the input contents is executed, and for example, based on the display contents displayed on the staff panel 21, when the input contents and the display contents are equal (O
(K time), the staff member turns on the confirmation key K3, and when the input content and the displayed content do not match (NG time), the staff member turns on the cancellation key K4. The above confirmation key K3 is ON
When operated, the process moves to the next fifth step 45, while
When the above-mentioned cancel key K4 is turned on, the process returns to the above-mentioned second step 42.

In the fifth step 45 described above, the sub CPU 30
registers the input contents in a predetermined area of the RAM 32, and ends the series of registration processing. Note that the recording on the card key 1 may be configured to be executed in this fifth step 45 instead of the third step 43 described above.

Next, with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 7, a process for erasing already registered card data will be described.

[0027] In the first step 51, the staff member displays the staff panel 2.
When the erase key K2 of No. 1 is turned on, the circuit device is set to the erase mode.

Next, in a second step 52, the clerk uses the numeric keypad K1 on the clerk panel 21 to input the registration number, for example, "0.
12'', the process moves to the next third step 53.

In this third step 53, the main CPU 22 and the sub CPU 30 input a name code as an identification code corresponding to the registration number corresponding to "012" key-input from a predetermined area of the RAM 32, for example "82009".
4" and visually display this 6-digit name code on a display device (not shown) together with the above-mentioned registration number.

Next, in a fourth step 54, the main CPU 22 drives and controls the display device of the staff panel 21, and executes a display judgment indicating that the confirmation key K3 should be pressed when erasing is OK, and the cancel key K4 should be pressed when erasing is NG. .

In the sixth step 56 described above, the sub CPU 30
deletes only the card data corresponding to the card-specific name code, for example, "820094" in a predetermined area of the RAM 32, and moves to the next seventh step 57.

[0033] In this seventh step 57, the staff determines whether or not to continue the erasure operation, and in response to the completion of the erasure operation,
When the staff member turns on the end key K5, the series of erasure processing ends, and in response to continuing the erasure operation, the staff member turns on the continue key K6.
When turned ON, the process returns to the second step 52.

Next, referring to the flowchart of FIG.
The processing performed when the electronic lock is released using the registered card key 1 described above will be described. In the first step 61, when the card key 1 is inserted into the card key insertion slot 19 of the staff card reader 20, the staff card reader 20 reads magnetic data (card data) from the magnetic stripe 2 of the card key 1, and This read information is input to the sub CPU 30.

Next, in a second step 62, the sub CPU 30
checks whether the limited information (refer to the ID number in Table 1) read from the card key 1 is valid or not, and if it is determined to be OK, the process moves to the next third step 63, while if it is not, the process returns to the first step 61.

In the third step 63 described above, the sub CPU 30
unlocks the door. This release control is executed based on the content of the limited information checked in the second step 62 described above. For example, if the card key 1 is for a third party such as a security company, only the replenishment door electronic lock 17 is unlocked at any time.

Next, in a fourth step 64, after the operator performs various operations and closes the corresponding door, in the next fifth step 65, the sub CPU 30 locks the electronic lock of the corresponding door.

Next, in a sixth step 66, the sub CPU 30 drives and controls a recording device (not shown) to record necessary recording items such as the operator, operation contents, and operation time based on the CPU's built-in timer. , completes the series of operations.

In summary, when deleting card data, the above-mentioned display means (see third step 53 in FIG. 7) displays a registration number, for example, 3-digit "012" and a card-specific identification code associated with this registration number. For example, the 6-digit name code "820094" is displayed, and the above-mentioned determination means (see fourth step 54 in FIG. 7) determines whether deletion is possible based on this display content, and only when deletion is OK, the above-mentioned name code is displayed. An execution permitting means (see sixth step 56 in FIG. 7) permits erasure of card data.

[0040] In this way, by displaying the registration number and the unique identification code (in the case of the embodiment, the name code) related to the registration number when deleting card data, it is possible to identify the specific card that should be deleted. The relationship with the key 1 is made clear, and as a result, there is an effect that erroneous operations by the staff at the time of deletion operations can be reliably prevented.
