It is assumed that the power supply of the drive system of the unit and the cash management device 40 is in the off state. Even in this state, communication between the cashier 10, the cashier 20, the money changer 30, and the cash management device 40 is possible.

(Processing of scrutiny performed on the date and time of scrutiny)
First, the scrutiny process performed on the scrutiny execution date and time shown in FIG. 10 will be described.
The cashier control unit 106f determines at predetermined time intervals (for example, every 10 seconds) whether or not it is the set scrutiny execution date and time (step S1).
When the cashier control unit 106f determines that it is not the set scrutiny execution date and time (NO in step S1), the cashier control unit 106f returns to the process of step S1.
When the cashier control unit 106f determines that it is the set scrutiny execution date and time (YES in step S1), the cashier terminal 106 goes from the standby state to the activated state and turns on the power of the cash processing unit. Put it in a state. Then, the cashier control unit 106f has a cashier 20 having a cash processing unit that can be automatically scrutinized among the cashier 20, the money changer 30, and the cash management device 40, which are registered as devices capable of communicating with the cashier 10. , And a start command is transmitted to each of the change machines 30 (step S2).
The cashier control unit 106f determines whether or not there is a device (casher 20, money changer 30) whose line is disconnected (step S3). For example, when the cashier control unit 106f can find the ID of the device (casher 20, money changer 30), it determines that there is no abnormality in the line. Further, when the cashier control unit 106f cannot find the ID of the device (casher 20, money changer 30), it determines that there is an abnormality in the line.
Each of the cashier 20 and the change machine 30 is activated in response to an activation command when there is no abnormality in the line and there is no abnormality in its own device (steps S4 and S5). Note that FIG. 9 shows a case where both the cashier 20 and the money changer 30 are activated.

When the cashier control unit 106f determines that there is a device connected by a line that cannot communicate (YES in step S3), the cashier control unit 106f records it in the cashier storage unit 106e as a device having an abnormality in the line (step S6).

When the cashier control unit 106f determines that there is no device connected by a line that cannot communicate (NO in step S3), the cashier control unit 106f confirms that the devices (casher 20 and money changer 30) have started (step S7), and the device moves. It is determined whether or not it has been started (step S8).
For example, when there is no response from the device (casher 20, money changer 30), the cashier control unit 106f determines that the device (casher 20, money changer 30) has not started (YES in step S8) and starts. It is recorded in the cashier storage unit 106e as a device that did not exist (step S9).

When there is a response from the device (casher 20, change machine 30), the cashier control unit 106f determines that the device (casher 20, change machine 30) has been activated (NO in step S8), and the activated device (casher). 20. Send a scrutiny order to the money changer 30) (step S10).
The cashier control unit 106f executes automatic scrutiny of the cashier 10 (step S11).

The cashier control unit 202 that has received the scrutiny order executes automatic scrutiny of the cashier 20 including the cashier control unit 202 that has received the scrutiny order in response to the scrutiny order (step S12). Further, the change machine control unit 302 that has received the scrutiny order executes automatic scrutiny of the change machine 30 in response to the scrutiny order (step S13).
The cashier control unit 106f transmits a scrutiny result acquisition command to the devices (casher 20, money changer 30) after a predetermined time (step S14). The predetermined time here is the time during which each device can complete the automatic scrutiny.

The cashier control unit 202 transmits the scrutiny result to the cashier 10 in response to the scrutiny result acquisition command (step S15). Further, the change machine control unit 302 transmits the scrutiny result (scrutiny completion / failure, count value, match / mismatch, failure cause, etc.) to the cashier 10 in response to the scrutiny result acquisition command (step S16).

The cashier control unit 106f receives the scrutiny result from the device (casher 20, money changer 30). The cashier control unit 106f records the received close examination result in the cashier storage unit 106e (step S17).
Then, the cashier control unit 106f transmits an end command to the device (casher 20, money changer 30) (step S18).
Then, the cashier control unit 106f turns off the power supply unit 108 (step S19).

The cashier control unit 202 receives the end command and turns off the power supply unit 207 in response to the received end command (step S20). Further, the change machine control unit 302 receives the end command and turns off the power supply unit 308 in response to the received end command (step S21).

The following are examples of the scrutiny results transmitted to the cashier 10 in the processes of steps S15 and S16.

(When the processing in the scrutiny is completed normally)
The device to be scrutinized (in this case, the cashier 20 and the money changer 30) has the control amount stored in the device to be scrutinized and the money in the device to be scrutinized when the scrutiny is completed normally (that is, the device to be scrutinized). (When the count value matches), the current amount indicated by the count value is transmitted to the cashier 10.
In this case, the cashier 10 receives the information on the amount of money indicated by the count value from the device to be scrutinized. Therefore, when the cashier control unit 106f receives the information on the amount of money received from the device to be scrutinized within a predetermined time, the information on the amount of money received from the device to be scrutinized is information indicating a normal scrutiny result. Can be determined. The predetermined time is a time set for each device to be scrutinized, and is a time longer than the time during which the device to be scrutinized can complete the scrutiny and transmit the scrutiny result.
Then, the cashier control unit 106f determines that the processing in the scrutiny has been performed normally when the received information on the current amount matches the managed amount of the device to be scrutinized stored in the cashier storage unit 106e. be able to.

(When an abnormality occurs in the processing in the scrutiny)
There are three possible causes for abnormalities in scrutiny.
The first cause of the abnormality is an abnormality in the device to be scrutinized or an abnormality in the communication line. As an abnormality of the device to be scrutinized, it is conceivable that the device cannot be scrutinized due to a problem such as a coin jam, or the device cannot be started.
If an abnormality occurs due to this first cause, it will not be possible to receive the information on the amount of money in the predetermined time. Therefore, if the cashier 10 does not receive the information on the amount of money in the specified time. In addition, it can be determined that an abnormality has occurred in the device or communication line to be scrutinized.

The second cause of the abnormality is an abnormality in the counted value of money caused by the difference between the amount of money to be counted and the amount of money actually counted. Possible causes of such abnormalities in the counted value of money include poor transportation, forgetting to return the rejected cash, and illegal withdrawal of cash.
When an abnormality occurs due to this second cause, the value of money counted by the scrutiny performed by the device to be scrutinized does not match the managed amount of the device to be scrutinized. Therefore, when the counted value of money and the managed amount stored in the device do not match, the device to be scrutinized notifies the cashier 10 that the counted value of money and the managed amount do not match. The machine 10 can determine that a poor transport, forgetting to return the rejected cash, or the like has occurred in the device to be scrutinized.
In addition, if the log information of unlocking the door lock is recorded so that the coins stored in the storage can not be easily accessed, the device to be scrutinized will have the count value of the coins and the managed amount. By transmitting the log information to the cashier 10 together with the information indicating that they do not match, the cashier 10 can determine that there is a possibility that cash has been illegally withdrawn in the device to be scrutinized. ..

The third cause of the abnormality occurrence is a discrepancy with the management amount of the device to be scrutinized stored in the cashier 10. Even when the cashier control unit 106f receives the information on the amount of money from the device to be scrutinized within a predetermined time, the management amount of the device to be scrutinized stored by the cashier storage unit 106e and the received scrutiny result Mismatches may occur. The cause of such a discrepancy is that the processing details (transaction information) of deposits and withdrawals performed in the device to be scrutinized are not reflected in the management amount of the device to be scrutinized stored in the cashier 10. Can be considered. Therefore, if the scrutiny result of the device to be scrutinized does not match the management amount of the device to be scrutinized stored in the cashier 10, the cashier control unit 106f processes the deposit and withdrawal performed by the device to be scrutinized. It can be determined that it is necessary to reflect the above in the management amount of the device to be scrutinized stored in the cashier 10.

(Scrutiny processing performed after the scrutiny execution date and time)
Next, the manual scrutiny process performed after the scrutiny execution date and time shown in FIG. 10 (for example, the morning following the scrutiny execution date) will be described.
When the operator turns on the power of the cashier terminal 106 of the cashier 10 after the scrutiny execution date and time, the cashier control unit 106f restores the scrutiny result by the automatic scrutiny performed on the scrutiny execution date and time (step S31). ..
In addition, a message about the automatic scrutiny performed on the scrutiny execution date and time is displayed on the cashier operation display unit 106c (step S32).
For example, the cashier control unit 106f switches the display shown in FIGS. 12 to 15 at predetermined time intervals (for example, every 5 seconds) and causes the cashier operation display unit 106c to display the display.

Further, the cashier control unit 106f transmits an activation command to each of the cashier 20, the money changer 30, and the cash management device 40 registered as devices capable of communicating with the cashier 10 (step S33).

The cashier control unit 202 that has received the start command turns on the power supply unit 207 (that is, starts the cashier 20) in response to the start command (step S34). Further, the change machine control unit 302 that has received the start command turns on the power supply unit 308 (that is, starts the change machine 30) in response to the start command (step S35). Further, the management device control unit 410 that has received the start command turns on the power supply unit 412 (that is, starts the cash management device 40) in response to the start command (step S36).

The operator identifies the reason why the scrutiny result of the scrutiny performed on the scrutiny execution date and time does not match the management amount stored in the scrutiny machine 10 with reference to the message displayed on the cashier operation display unit 106c.
For example, the operator selects a menu shown in FIGS. 12 to 15 and selects a device whose scrutiny result performed on the scrutiny execution date and time does not match the managed amount stored in the cashier 10. Check if there are any bills or coins stuck to the internal transport path, check if there is any discrepancy due to the rejected coins, and in such cases, store the remaining coins or coins on the transport path in the reject warehouse. The rejected coins and the dirty coins stored in the dirty coin storage will be returned to the deposit slot and recounted. Further, with respect to the cashier 10, a new ticket processing unit 102 or the like for processing new tickets is confirmed.
Then, the operator reflects the identified cause on the device having the cause.

Further, the operator sets the drawer positions of all the storages included in the cash management device 40 to predetermined positions and returns them to their original positions. As a result, when the drawer position of the storage is set to a predetermined position, the bundle detection sensor 407 detects the presence or absence of small bundled bills stored in the storage and the type of bill. Further, when the withdrawal position of the storage is set to a predetermined position, the coin-roll detection sensor 408 detects the presence or absence of the coin-roll stored in the storage and the type of money.
Then, the operator performs an operation of acquiring the count value of the small bundle bills by the bundle detection sensor 407 and the count value of the coins by the coin-roll detection sensor 408 on the cashier operation display unit 106c.

The operator operates the cashier to operate the device in which the result of the scrutiny performed on the date and time of the scrutiny does not match the management amount stored in the cashier 10 and the cash management device 40 to execute the scrutiny. This is performed on the display unit 106c.
The cashier control unit 106f matches the management amount stored in the cashier 10 with the scrutiny result of the scrutiny performed on the scrutiny execution date and time according to the operation performed by the operator on the cashier operation display unit 106c. A scrutiny order for executing the scrutiny is transmitted to the device that did not exist and the cash management device 40 (step S37). Further, the cashier control unit 106f manually inspects the cashier 10 (step S38). The processing flow shown in FIG. 10 shows an example of processing when there is an error in the scrutiny result of the cashier 20 and the scrutiny result of the money changer 30 performed on the scrutiny execution date and time.

The cashier control unit 202 that has received the scrutiny order executes a manual scrutiny of the cash management device 40 in response to the scrutiny order (step S39). Further, the change machine control unit 302 that has received the scrutiny order executes a manual scrutiny of the change machine 30 in response to the scrutiny order (step S40). The management device control unit 410 that has received the scrutiny order executes a manual scrutiny of the cash management device 40 in response to the scrutiny order (step S41).

The operator performs an operation of acquiring the scrutiny result from the cash management device 40 on the cashier operation display unit 106c.
The cashier control unit 106f transmits a scrutiny result acquisition command to the devices (casher 20, money changer 30, cash management device 40) after a predetermined time (step S42). The predetermined time here is the time during which each device can complete the manual scrutiny.

The cashier control unit 202 transmits the scrutiny result to the cashier 10 in response to the scrutiny result acquisition command (step S43). The cashier control unit 202 puts the power supply unit 108 in a standby state (step S44). Further, the change machine control unit 302 transmits the scrutiny result to the cashier 10 in response to the scrutiny result acquisition command (step S45). The change machine control unit 302 puts the power supply unit 308 in a standby state (step S46). Further, the management device control unit 410 transmits the scrutiny result to the cashier 10 in response to the scrutiny result acquisition command (step S47). The management device control unit 410 puts the power supply unit 412 into a standby state (step S48).

The cashier control unit 106f receives the scrutiny result from the devices (casher 20, money changer 30, cash management device 40). The cashier control unit 106f records the received close examination result in the cashier storage unit 106e (step S49).

(Display processing performed by the cashier)
Next, the display processing performed by the cashier 10 shown in FIG. 11 during the scrutiny will be described.
The cashier control unit 106f determines whether or not there is a device recorded in the cashier storage unit 106e in the process of step S6 (step S51).

When the cashier control unit 106f determines that there is a device recorded in the cashier storage unit 106e in the process of step S6 (YES in step S51), the cashier control unit 106f sends a first warning message indicating a line abnormality to the cashier operation display unit 106c. Display (step S52). The first warning message is a message indicating that the scrutiny was not completed due to the line or device. Then, the cashier control unit 106f determines whether or not there is a device recorded in the cashier storage unit 106e in the process of step S9 (step S53).
Further, when the cashier control unit 106f determines in the process of step S6 that there is no device recorded in the cashier storage unit 106e (NO in step S51), the cashier control unit 106f performs the process of step S53.

When the cashier control unit 106f determines that there is a device recorded in the cashier storage unit 106e in the process of step S9 (YES in step S53), the cashier operation display unit issues a first warning message indicating a device startup failure. It is displayed on 106c (step S54). Then, the cashier control unit 106f determines whether or not there is a device abnormality (step S55). For example, when the close examination result cannot be obtained in the process of step S17, the device is determined to be device abnormality.

When the cashier control unit 106f determines that there is a device abnormality (YES in step S55), the cashier control unit 106f displays a first warning message indicating the device abnormality on the cashier operation display unit 106c (step S56). The first warning message indicating this device abnormality is, for example, the display shown in FIG. Then, the cashier control unit 106f determines whether or not the scrutiny result by each device matches the management amount stored in each device (step S57).
Of the menus 2 to 4 shown in FIG. 12, menu 2 is a menu for re-examination after confirming the device. Menu 3 shows the processing when the scrutiny is interrupted in some devices and the scrutiny results of other devices can be reflected (that is, the devices that can be scrutinized and the devices that cannot be scrutinized are distinguished (separated). ) For) menu. The menu 4 is a menu for indicating a process when the scrutiny is interrupted by the apparatus and the cause is unknown and the scrutiny result cannot be reflected (that is, it is assumed that the scrutiny has not been performed).

When the cashier control unit 106f determines that the scrutiny result of each device and the management amount stored in each device do not match (NO in step S57), the door is opened / closed in the log information of the door of the device that does not match. It is determined whether or not there is information that has detected the above (step S58).

When the cashier control unit 106f determines that there is no information that detects the opening / closing of the door in the log information of the door of the device that does not match (NO in step S58), the cashier control unit 106f sends a second warning message to the cashier operation display unit 106c.
