Cash dispensing automated banking machine diagnostic system and method

摘要

An automated banking machine ( 10 ) includes a cash dispenser ( 54 ). Servicing the machine is facilitated through use of a portable diagnostic article ( 98 ) which enables the controller to access diagnostic data stored in memory and which provides data indicative of the significance of the diagnostic data. A portable article of computer readable and writable media ( 314 ) is also operative to cause the computer to gather data concerning the banking machine and record it on the media through a drive ( 312 ). The data gathered is then analyzed by a separate analysis computer ( 324 ).
