DOCUMENT HANDLING MACHINE

摘要

A document handling machine comprises a detector system (110) for detecting one or more characteristic features of documents. A control system (100) performs a number of functions related to information obtained from the detector system (110) and/or the manner in which documents are handled. The control system (100) includes a memory (6) for storing a set of codes, each code corresponding to a respective one of the functions, and is adapted to enable a function to be performed if a supplied enabling code corresponds in a valid manner with one of the stored function codes.
