SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HANDLING BANKNOTES

摘要

A system and a method for processing value documents comprises a multiplicity of bank-note processing machines connected and arranged to communicate with each other via a communication network, and which respectively have stored therein configuration data defining the operating configuration of a respective bank-note processing machine. At least a first bank-note processing machine is logically associated with a first local access service module, and at least a second bank-note processing machine is logically associated with a second local access service module. The system comprises a central master access service module having configuration data stored therein and in communication via the communication network with the first local access service module and the second local access service module. A change of the configuration data stored in the central master access service module leads to the configuration of the first bank-note processing machine and of the second bank-note processing machine being changed.
