Safety Notice

WARNING!Before performing any equipment maintenance or repair, set the equipment power to OFF, set the main circuit breaker to OFF, and lockout and tag the main circuit breaker; failure to follow this warning can result in injury or death to personnel and damage to equipment.

Note: Damage to equipment that occurs as a result of performing maintenance or repairs while power is ON, is not covered by the warranty.

Note: Before performing any equipment maintenance or repair, refer to the equipment operation and maintenance manuals.

Equipment Safety■ Inspection—frequently inspect the equipment to ensure that it is operating properly.

■ Maintenance—ensure that maintenance is performed by an authorized technician at least twice a year.

System Safety■ Vibrant Colors—use vibrant colors on parking equipment at entrance and exit lanes, to make it more

visible to patrons.

■ Signage—provide clear signage on the roadway and other equipment, to assist patrons in easily and safely moving through the facility.

■ Equipment Warnings—maintain manufacturer’s warning stickers on gate arms and other equipment, to ensure that operators and patrons are aware of potential hazards.

■ Safety Devices—encourage the use of safety devices (e.g., buzzers, flashing lights), to ensure that operators and patrons are alerted to potential hazards.

■ Sidewalks—should be parallel to entrance and exit lanes, to eliminate the need for pedestrians to cross the lanes. This decreases the risk of pedestrian accidents in the lanes.

■ Monitor Lanes—operators must monitor remote entrance and exit lanes, to be aware of patron activity in these areas, especially when raising and lowering gates or operating other remote equipment.

Icons (Pictograms)3M strongly recommends the use of universally identifiable icons (pictograms), for all entrance and exit lanes, roadways, posts, and walls. It is recommended that the following icons be displayed on the roadway, immediately adjacent to the parking barrier gate:

■ No Pedestrians

■ No Wheelchairs

■ No Bicycles

■ No Motorcycles

■ No Trucks

Safety Is Good Business

It is important to be aware of the potential liabilities that can occur during normal parking operations. Adopting a “Safety First” policy provides you and your patrons with a safer environment

Chapter 1: Getting Started

The Magnetic (Mag) Stripe AutoRead System is a revenue control device that uses magnetic stripe tickets and magnetic reading devices. The MG-1000 Ticket Spitter, the ML-3000 Exit Verifier, the SST Ticket Validator, and the SST 1000 Automatic Pay Station are all products that use mag stripe technology.

The SST Transport and Burster are two critical components of the SST, or Smart System Trans-port, system. The SST Transport is a compact unit that reads, writes, and encodes data on magnetic stripe tickets. The Burster is a compact unit which separates, or bursts, tickets at the perforation.

Note: This manual may reference legacy part numbers and product names. Please refer to the 3M Parking Price Book for current product names or contract your customer service repre-sentative with questions.

Overview of the SST Transport and Burster

The SST Transport is a part of four Mag Stripe AutoRead System devices:

❑ SST Ticket Spitter. In this device, the SST Transport prints and encodes mag-netic data on the tickets. It then transports the tickets to the SST Transport Ticket Throat, from which the patron retrieves the ticket and uses it to enter the parking facility.

❑ SST Exit Verifier reads the ticket to verify if it is valid. It also determines whether a patron paid the parking fee and is leaving within the grace time. If the patron leaves within the grace time, the SST Exit Verifier opens the gate and the patron can exit the facility.

❑ The SST Ticket Validator is used at cashiering stations in conjunction with the Cashier Station to calculate parking fees. It validates tickets once a cashier pro-cesses a transaction. As a component of the SST Ticket Validator, the SST Trans-port functions as part of a revenue control system. The SST Transport reads the ticket and communicates this information to an Cashier Station, which then calcu-lates the parking fee. Once the cashier processes the transaction, the SST Trans-port encodes the transaction data on the ticket and then either ejects the ticket or captures it.

❑ The SST 1000 Automatic Pay Station is a pay-on-foot system that enables patrons to process their own parking fees without a cashier. The SST Transport reads the ticket and communicates this information to an Cashier Station which calculates the parking fee and processes the transaction. Once the Cashier Station has processed the transaction, the SST Transport encodes the transaction data on the ticket and either ejects the ticket or swallows it. Figure 1.2 shows the location of the SST Transport in the SST Automatic Pay Station.

Figure 1.1 shows the location of the SST Transport ticket throat and Burster in the SST Ticket Spitter.

Overview of the Burster Mechanism

The Burster splits tickets at their perforations so that the SST Transport can encode and print the tickets. There are two kinds of Bursters: the Single Infeed Burster and the Dual Infeed Burster. The Single Infeed Ticket Burster is the standard ticket bursting mechanism included with all SST Ticket Spitters. The Dual Infeed Ticket Burster is an optional product. For additional information on the Burster Mechanism, please refer to Chapter 3: Burster Mechanism.

Overview of the Parker

The Parker parks, or holds, tickets for a short period of time so that the SST Transport can process magnetic stripe vouchers, credit cards, Value Cards, or Debit Cards. You may find a Parker in the SST Ticket Validator, the Automatic Pay Station, or the SST Exit Verifier. For additional informa-tion on the Parker, please refer to Chapter 3: Burster Mechanism.

Differences Between the HP-1 and the HP-4 Transports

The basic difference between the HP-1 and HP-4 Transports is that the SST HP-4 Transport is mechanically engineered to read a ticket inserted in any one of four ways: mag stripe facing up, down, to the left, or to the right, whereas the HP-1 can read a ticket inserted only one way.

Note: To read hole-punch validations on tickets validated with the Merchant Validator, the ticket must be inserted in the HP-4 Transport with the mag stripe facing down and to the right, just as with the HP-1 Transport.

Differences Between HP Transports and Previous Transport

The SST HP-1 Transport was introduced in January 1999 as an enhanced device to replace the existing SST Transport. The SST HP-4 Transport was introduced shortly after that time to provide the option of four-way ticket reading. Table 1.1 outlines the major differences between the SST/HP-1 and SST/HP-4 Transports and the SST Transport manufactured prior to January 1999.

Figure 2.9 illustrates the SST/HP-4 Transport with the PCB-4 Board lifted up. The mag heads are on the underside of the board.

Solenoid-Driven Print Linkage System

The SST Transport has a solenoid-driven print linkage assembly. This feature enables the SST Transport to print tickets at a faster rate, allowing vehicles to enter/exit a parking facility more rapidly.

Hole-Punch Sensors

Four sensors are built into the SST Transport that enable the SST Transport to read hole-punched validations on tickets. This feature is used in conjunction with the Merchant Validator, which allows merchants to hole-punch parking tickets, instead of stamping them, for parking fee discounts. When the ticket is fed into an SST Ticket Validator with an SST Transport, the SST Transport can read the hole-punched ticket and automatically relay this information to the Cashier Station. This process eliminates the need to manually enter the merchant number and fee discount into the Cashier Station.

Note: To read hole-punch validations on tickets validated with the Merchant Validator, the ticket must be inserted in the HP-4 Transport with the mag stripe facing down and to the right, just as with the HP-1 Transport.

Central Processing (CPU) Board

The SST CPU Board processes all of the information and controls all of the functions for the SST Transport. A breakout board is also used with the SST Transport CPU Board in order to provide additional connectors. A 50-pin ribbon cable connects the PCB-4 Board to the CPU Board. A 6-pin cord connects the SST Transport Stepper Motor to the CPU Board. A 26-pin conductor ribbon cable connects the Burster/Parker to the CPU Board when a Burster/Parker is included. A 50-pin connector, J1, plugs the breakout board into the CPU Board. Figure 2.10 shows an SST CPU Board.

Chapter 3: Burster Mechanism

The Burster is another critical component of the SST, or Smart System Transport, system. It is a compact unit which separates, or bursts, tickets at the perforation.

Reviewing the Burster Mechanism

The Burster splits tickets at their perforation so that the SST Transport can encode and print the tickets. There are two kinds of Bursters: the Single Infeed Ticket Burster and the Dual Infeed Ticket Burster. The Single Infeed Burster is the standard ticket bursting mechanism included with all SST Ticket Spitters shipped after July 1998. The Dual Infeed Burster, used in SST Ticket Spitters manufactured prior to July 1998, is now an optional product. Table 3.1 shows the differences between the two types of Bursters.

Both types of Bursters have spring-loaded pressure rollers which completely eliminate the necessity of periodical roller tension adjustments. The springs consistently apply the required force for separating the tickets.

The Single Infeed Ticket Burster has the following additional features:

❑ It eliminates the possibility of damage caused when two or more tickets are fed into the Burster.

❑ Has a light shield that helps block the ambient light from affecting infeed light sensor (LS 4) operation.

For illustrations of the Single Infeed Burster, refer to Figure 3.1 and Figure 3.2.

Warning! Do not hang the Burster/Parker on the SST Transport when the CPU has power. This will damage the Burster/Parker. Do not attempt to connect or disconnect ribbon cables when the power is on. This may cause damage to components.

Table 3.1: Differences Between the Single Infeed and Dual Infeed Bursters

Reviewing the Parker

The Parker parks, or holds, tickets for a short period of time so that the SST Transport can process magnetic stripe vouchers, credit cards, Value Cards, or debit cards. You may find a Parker in the SST Ticket Validator, the Automatic Pay Station, or the SST Exit Verifier. Figure 3.5 illustrates the Parker.

Installing the Burster/Parker

To install the Burster/Parker on the SST Transport, complete the following steps:

1. Turn off power to the SST Transport.

Warning! Do not hang the Burster/Parker on the SST Transport when the CPU has power. This will damage the Burster/Parker. Do not attempt to connect or disconnect ribbon cables when the power is on. This may cause damage to components.

2. Open the securing knob on the side of the Burster by turning it counterclockwise. Figure 3.6 illustrates the location of the securing knob.

3. With the securing knob and Burster serial number label facing you, align the Burster frame between the support clips on the back of the SST Transport.

Warning! Before hanging the Burster on the SST Transport, make sure that the Burster Protector is in place. The Burster Protector slides down between the sensors behind the Burster CPU Board. The Burster Protector channel rests on top of the Burster CPU Board. If you do not use the Burster Protector, you may damage the unit.

4. Slide the Burster forward until the Burster securing knob and the inside screw are aligned with the notch on the SST Transport Burster Support. Make sure the Burster is flush against the back of the SST Transport. Figure 3.7 illustrates the SST/HP-1 Transport aligned with a Burster. Figure 3.8 illustrates the SST/HP-4 Transport aligned with a Burster.

7. Restore power to the unit.

8. Load tickets into the Burster.

Loading Tickets

Once you install the SST Transport and Burster, you can load the tickets into the Burster.

Note: You must program the starting ticket number in the SST Omega Controller each time you load tickets in the SST Ticket Spitter.

To load tickets in the Single Infeed Burster, complete the following steps:

1. Open a new box of magnetic stripe tickets.

2. Insert a ticket into the infeed slot with the magnetic stripe facing up, as shown in Figure 3.12. If you have a Single Infeed Burster, go to step 3.

Note: The Single Infeed Burster automatically draws up the tickets.

3. Carefully feed the ticket into the ticket infeed slot and into the bottom roller. About 1-20 seconds after the first light sensor (LS 4) is activated and you feel the tickets “kick-back” when you push them in place, the Burster automatically draws up the tickets.

Warning! Make sure that the ticket is straight. If the ticket is slanted, a ticket jam may occur.

Note: If the Burster does not draw up tickets, verify that you have SST CPU software 3.6.0 or greater and that DIP Switches #4 and #5 on DIP Switch Bank S1 of the SST CPU Board

Chapter 4: Preventive Maintenance

You must service and maintain the SST Transport and Burster regularly so that they work properly. Actual operating location and environmental conditions dictate how often you should perform pre-ventive maintenance. For example, in environments where the SST Transport is used constantly or in a dusty environment, you will need to perform preventive maintenance more often. This chapter covers preventive maintenance for the SST Transport and Burster.

Tools Required for Preventive Maintenance

You will need the following tools and materials to perform preventive maintenance on the SST Transport and/or Burster:

❑ Clean rag

❑ Denatured alcohol

❑ Compressed air

Cleaning and Inspecting the SST Transport

Warning! Do not use fire, flame, or any other items which may spark while cleaning or doing preventive maintenance on the SST Transport and/or Burster.

1. Open the cabinet of the device in which the SST Transport resides.

Warning! Disconnect power from the SST CPU Board. If you do not disconnect power, you will damage the unit.

2. Remove the SST Transport.

3. Close the cabinet doors.

4. Conduct a visual inspection of the SST Transport for obvious defects. Make sure that there are no loose, frayed, or broken wires and connectors. Inspect all gear teeth for damage.

Cleaning the SST Transport

The first step in preventive maintenance involves cleaning the SST Transport. This removes all of the dust and other particles that may impact the SST Transport.

One of the components of the SST Transport that requires cleaning at regular intervals is the Ticket Channel. Since sensor openings are recessed slightly in the Ticket Channel, they form pockets which collect debris, mainly paper dust. As the pockets fill with paper dust, the dust begins to block the transmission of light from the LED source to the sensor in the upper Ticket Channel. When blocked completely, the SST Transport can no longer “see” a ticket and the system fails.

Since December 1998 the product has had a 3/8 in. (9.5 mm) wide strip of transparent film tape to cover the sensor holes on the lower Ticket Channel. The strip is laid lengthwise and covers all of

the optical sensor openings in the Ticket Channel. The sensor tape produces a flat, uniform Ticket Channel surface that prevents the build up of paper dust around the sensors. This substantially increases the time interval between required cleanings.

To clean the SST Transport, complete the following steps. This should be done every 6 months or as needed.

1. Use compressed air to clean the following:

❑ Rollers

❑ Source LEDs (located on the lower half of the SST Transport).

❑ Ticket Channel (if you unit does not have a strip on the lower ticket channel)

❑ Photo Transistors (located on the top half of the SST Transport unit).

2. Make sure that the power is disconnected. This is important to do before completing the next step.

3. Using a clean soft cloth or cotton swab and denatured alcohol do the following:

❑ Clean the Magnetic Head by wiping gently on it.

Warning! Do not push down on the Magnetic Head or it may stick.

❑ Wipe the bottom edge of the Print Head to remove any ink or dust that may have accumulated in the SST Transport. (Version 12 or older only.)

Warning! Do not use dry contact cleaner or petroleum based lubrication to clean or lubri-cate the SST Transport. This will damage the rubber.

❑ Clean the print head by soaking a ticket with denatured alcohol and manually cranking it through the Transport. When it reaches the print head lightly press the HP-1 or HP-4 print head down while moving the ticket back and forth.

❑ Clean all the ticket rollers. Figure 4.4 illustrates the rollers on the bottom half of the SST/HP-4 Transport. Figure 4.5 illustrates the rollers on the bottom half of the SST/HP-4 Transport. Additionally, the top half of the SST Transport has rollers that correspond with rollers 3, 4, 5 and the Magnetic Head. To clean roller 2, do the following:

— Place a cloth dampened with denatured alcohol on roller 1.— Turn the brass gear drive. Roller 1 will rub against roller 2 and clean it.— Turn the brass gear drive until the cloth is clean.

Inspecting the SST Transport

After you clean the SST Transport, you should inspect the various parts to ensure that everything is in working order. The following instructions describe the steps to inspect the SST Transport.

1. Check the side-to-side movement of the Magnetic Head.

Warning! Do not push down on the magnetic head or it will become misadjusted.

❑ Hold the Magnetic Head between your thumb and forefinger. The magnetic head should swivel freely but when moved, it should not return to its original position of its own accord. (Version 12 or older only.)

❑ Make sure the magnetic head is above the ticket channel.

Warning! Do not adjust the magnetic head. Once set at the factory, the adjustment should not change. If it has been accidentally misadjusted, contact the factory for assis-tance.

Checking Motor Speed

Note: After June 2001 SST CPU boards no longer contain motor speed adjustment. Motor speed is controlled by firmware (Versions 4.0.9 or higher).

Follow these instructions to check the motor speed:

1. Close the SST Transport if it is open.

Warning! Make sure that the gears are aligned properly before you shut the SST Trans-port. Forcing it to shut when the gears are not aligned properly may bend the teeth on the large nylon drive gear. Do not slam the SST Transport shut.

2. Carefully reinstall the unit in the device in which it resides. Turn power ON.

Note: Do not overstress or pinch the cables. Also, ensure that all connections to the CPU Board are proper.

3. Check the motor speed.

4. Note the current DIP switch settings.

5. Open all of the DIP switches on Switch Bank S1, located on the SST CPU Board.

6. Close DIP switch 7, and then close DIP switch 8.

Adjusting Belt Tension

Improper belt tension can cause the SST/HP-4 Transport to print characters of uneven height. It may also cause the unit to encode or read the magnetic tickets poorly. Test the belt by gently push-ing, or deflecting, the lower belt up or down. The belt should move as least 1/16 in (1.6 mm). You should also be able to manually move the upper belt. If you cannot do this, adjust the lower and/or upper belts by completing the following steps:

1. Back out any tickets, if applicable, from the SST/HP-4 Transport by using the green but-ton on the SST CPU Board.

Warning! Disconnect power from the SST CPU Board. If you do not disconnect power, you will damage the unit and severe personal injury may occur.

2. Open the cabinet of the device in which the SST/HP-4 Transport resides and remove the unit. Close the cabinet.

Note: Do not carry the SST/HP-4 Transport by the Print Head. Carrying it by the Print Head may bend the bracket and cause printing problems. Always carry the SST/HP-4 Transport from the bottom.

3. Adjust the Upper Drive Belt by completing the following steps:

❑ Using a Phillips screwdriver, loosen the screw on the Upper Belt Tensioner. If necessary, use pliers to hold the nut on the back side of the panel. Figure 6.3 illustrates the location of the Upper Belt Tensioner on the SST/HP-1 Transport. Figure 6.4 illustrates the location of the Upper Belt Tensioner on the SST/HP-4 Transport.
