Guest Access

The System Administrator can define a passcode which users enter at the machine to gain access. Guest Access can be enabled with Network Authentication. Users then have the option to enter their Username or the guest account at the machine.

Foreign Device Interface (FDI)

A third party access and accounting device such a coin-operated or a card reader can be attached to the machine. To enable this option, the Foreign Device Interface kit must be installed. Follow the installation instructions which are supplied with the kit.

Once the FDI kit is installed, the Administrator must enable the FDI using CentreWare Internet Services.
