Recycler Float Downs

Open

Recyclers may need to be emptied/purged on occasion. Any banknotes stored on the drums will be ejected into the cashbox/stacker during this procedure. Purges (called a “float down”) are logged, and the drum contents will be reset to zero in both CAS and internally on the Recycler.

• The log can be exported as a CSV file.

• The Recycler Float Down Public ID can be located via the global search.

A “float down” would be performed:

• before certain critical operations, like updating the Recycler firmware, or

• when using a third-party agent to perform cash collections, or

• when (for any reason) all the banknotes should be unloaded.

• “Float down unknown documents” has the same effect, but is used to zero-out internal counters. This is useful in instances where internal counters were accidentally changed (absent a purge) and the banknote count is wrong.
