To configure the connection to the card reader service provider (IDC), set the Logical service (IDC) parameter.

This setting can assume different values for different ATM types. In accordance with the XFS specification, this value is stored in the system registry. For earlier versions of XFS, this value is stored in the registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WOSA/XFS_ROOT\LOGICAL_SERVICES\Logical Service.

For later versions of XFS, this value is stored in the registry key HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\XFS\LOGICAL_SERVICES\LS.

The LOGICAL_SERVICES hive contains keys for each service provider (card reader, PIN entry pad, receipt printer, etc.).

What we are interested in is the logical name of the card reader service provider ("class" = "IDC"). In the example given in the figure, the logical name is "MyCardReader". This is the value that should be indicated in ATM Event Capture.

Logical name of the service provider of card-reader by default is:

  • For ATMs made by NCR, "IDCardUnit1".
  • For ATMs made by Wincor, "IDC30" ("IDC", in older versions).
  • For ATMs made by Diebold, «DBD_MotoCardRdr».

After ATM Event Capture intercepts an event from the ATM card reader, it sends information about this event to ATM Intellect Pro. ATM Intellect Pro overlays captions on the image. To do so, configure the connection to the ATM-Intellect Pro.
