States

Each pump will display the current state, there are several main states including Calling, Filling, Pre-Sale, Processing, Stopped, and error.

Calling- A customer has picked up the pump and is ready to start pumping, press the pump number to allow them to start filling.

Filling- The pump is in operation.

Pre-Sale- The customer has hung up the pump and is ready to purchase the fuel.

Processing- When you select a pump that is in pre-sale, it will change the pump button to display Processing. The sale screen will then populate with the sale information that can then be processed and completed.

Stacked- NBS Amicus Fuel Module allows for sales to be stacked and processed for a single pump. This means that one hose can have one active sale on the pump and another stacked sale stored in NBS Amicus at one time, i.e. there is one customer filling while one other is waiting to pay.

Note: Sales can only be stacked if you have a printer connected for printing the stacked sales. This is to comply with National Measurement Institute’s requirements regarding Primary Reading. You can add a printer for the stacked sales from the Fuel Configuration Settings screen.

PP Locked- When a pump displays the PP Locked state it means that the customer has used a pre-payment option.

Stopped- The pump is offline, press Start then the pump to start the pump.

Error - If the pump is displaying error then there is something wrong with the pump. Refer to the Error page for steps on how to resolve the problem.
