Event Log

A Terminal’s Event Log contains a record of every conversation between the BATM and CAS. Some of this information is not displayed, but can be located by downloading the CSV log. The codes are “bitwise” - each represents a single on/off state, which means that multiple states may be represented by an aggregation of codes (i.e. error code 2 + error code 16 = 18; representing both error states. “18” itself isn’t an error code.). Thus, you may see codes that aren’t listed (but can still be derived).

The Log is informational only, and provides a wealth of data. Don’t overreact to ominous tones! In some cases, an error is expected & routine, yet must still be logged (and reported here).

The Event Log is routinely requested by the Support team, as it contains vital information needed to diagnose the most common problems.

Cash Manipulation:

These events are limited to cash in/out only. This log is useful when determining cash receipt/dispensing problems.

REMOTE events occur at the BATM.

  • REMOTE events are then shared with CAS, which acknowledges them in a “LOCAL” event.


Send the Event Log to Support:

Support may ask for your Event Log for a specific Terminal. Find the download icon on this page.

  • Save it as a CSV (comma-separated values) file.

  • Do not convert it to any other format.

  • Logs sent in other formats will be rejected; they are a security risk.
