Acceptors: the type of bill acceptor (and billset) currently installed in your BATM is displayed here.
DEPRECATED: Shared Secret Hash **: this is emailed to you by GB after you received the BATM. There is no error checking on this, so be careful to copy and paste accurately and entirely.
no longer visible or required since version 20200913.
Name: an arbitrary name you call this particular BATM. Be descriptive. Anything that will help you pick it out of a list will do.
Terminal Locked: Terminal settings cannot be changed while locked by an Administrator.
Terminal Active: enables the terminal, otherwise the BATM displays the maintenance message. De-activating the terminal turns off all access except administrative (at the BATM) and CAS (here).
Deactivate outside of opening hours: when enabled, the BATM is deactivated (and cannot be used) outside of the “opening hours” as defined within the assigned Location.
IP Whitelist Enabled: prevents your BATM from connecting to potentially dangerous local networks, and helps prevent loss if your BATM is abducted. See: Error: Check your IP Whitelist
Enable this after the BATM is deployed onsite, disable it during initial setup only.
IP Whitelist: the IP of the current (or most recent) router that your BATM is connected to.
Enable this if you are certain the IP will never unexpectedly change.
The IP to be entered is your router’s PUBLIC IP. Entering a local/private IP will result in the BATM being blocked. e.g. 192.168.0.9 is a “private” IP - the opposite of public. More info?
Registration Number: helps identify a BATM from the BATM screen (when implemented).
Can be any arbitrary identifying information.
Also see (below): ATM display top left corner
Top Left Corner Display: Used to display helpful identifying information at the BATM to customers & other third-parties (merchants, handlers, techs, etc) onsite.
Terminal Settings may be standardized and applied across deployed models.
Create a Terminal Setting to assign most of the remaining settings to a common, shared value.

Currencies
You'll need to have at least one type of paper currency setup in (“Fiat Settings”) and one type of crypto-currency setup in (“Crypto Settings”) to complete this section.
Main Cash Currency **: select the primary type of currency your bill acceptor is designed to receive. Your particular bill acceptor model can be determined from the BATM admin screen.
This is a mandatory field and must be entered to save the Terminal setting.
See Acceptors (above) to identify your supported billset.
Each of these may be added and configured in the main menu “Fiat Settings”.
The first currency (i.e. USD in USDCADEUR) must be used & listed first.
Additional Cash Currencies: if your bill acceptor takes multiple currencies, specify them here. See the bill acceptor specifications for your BATM to determine what currencies are supported.
Example: for US sales - the US Dollar, the Euro, & the Canadian Dollar (USDEURCAD) billsets are installed by default in the BATM, so in this example you would set “USD” as the “Main Cash Currency” (above) and add “EUR” and “CAD” here. You may skip this area if you only want to accept the main cash currency (USD).
Crypto Currency **: select the types of crypto-currency you support. Each type will need an entry in the main menu's “Crypto Settings”.
This is a mandatory field and must be entered to save the Terminal setting.
