Description The PSS 5000 contains several Weights and Measures facilities. These facili-
ties ensure the correct operational status of the PSS 5000 and the integrity of
the data it collects and stores. The facilities continually check that operational
critical functions, such as the Local Service Panel display, are functioning cor-
rectly. Should an error occur in one or more of these functions, then the W&M
facilities will ensure that large transactions or unattended terminal payments
cannot continue until the error is corrected.
The W&M Menu enables you to obtain important information about the PSS
5000 system and provides a way for you to check that the W&M facilities are
functioning correctly. You are able to simulate an error on one or more of the
operational critical functions, for example the Local Service Panel display,
and see if the PSS 5000 reacts accordingly. By being able to do this and see
the results, you can verify that no errors are present on any of the checking fa-
cilities.
LSP Idle menu For all the local service panel procedures, it is assumed that the Idle menu is
shown in the display at the start of the procedure. For more information about
the idle menu, see ‘Local Service Panel display’ on page 22.
