Aer installing the ATM and powering up the unit, the user has to set up the passwords and security basics. is
manual describes the operating features and shows how to perform procedures typically performed by the own-
er/operator personnel.
e list below contains important features of the ARGO series ATM.
—Reliable, state-of-the-art operating system PC platform design. e ARGO series uses a Microso®
Windows®CE 7.0 operating system with Triton’s custom designed X3 main board. Supports Windows
le formats for adding custom logos and advertisements.
—Front-access units accommodate single cassette (MiniMech, SDD, ECDM-100, or SCDU) and multi
cassette ( NMD50 or HCDU). e ARGO with a MiniMech features a shallow cabinet design while the
other models feature a deep cabinet design.
—ARGO 7” and 15” units contain capacitive-touch LED displays. UV stable adhesives oers up to 50,000
hours of back-light life. e ARGO 12.1” color LCD displays capacitive-touch screen function keys.
ARGO 7” and 15” units provide e-receipt technology.
—Single power supplies installed with SCDU and MiniMech dispensers. Dual power supplies installed
with SDD, HCDU, ECDM-100, or NMD50 dispensers.
—Advanced security module (ASM) can use either power supply.
—Secure T9 encrypting pin pad (EPP) device encrypts the customer PIN during a transaction. Triple DES
and PCI compliant which adheres to international encryption standards.
—Card reader options include the standard ICM330 EMV dip-style card reader, ICM33B EMV Anti-Skim
card reader, or the K7 EMV 4.0 motorized card reader.
—Lock options include mechanical dial or electronic Cencon lock, swing bolt for business hours cabinet
and Cencon lock or Combogard 33E electronic, two-step, deadbolt lock for level 1 vaults.
—60 mm or 80 mm graphics-capable printers with optional printer presenter print receipts, management
reports and coupons. ARGO 7” and 15” units allow the users to enter an e-mail address or phone number
via the on-screen keypad to receive an electronic receipt.
—Contains standard LED back-light signage and available optional high-topper for deep cabinet models.
—Supports TCP/IP Ethernet (standard), or optional dial-up (Triton POTS modem) communication.
—Utilizes a high-capacity electronic journal to store transaction details for later printout and analysis.
—Satises Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) specications for height and access, and includes voice
enabled headphone jack with audio transactions for the visually impaired.

—Management Functions allows extensive control and customization of operating parameters, also see
the X3 Conguration Manual.
—Password protection for Management Functions and key management areas.
—Optional Message Authentication Code (MAC) data encryption protocol provides increased message
trac protection between the ATM and the Host. Triple DES compliant.
—Optional TCP/IP with secure socket layer (SSL) and transport layer security (TLS) adds another level
of security for ATM to Host communications.
—Multi-Language Support enables the customer to select a preferred language (such as French or Spanish)
for customer screens and receipts.
—Transaction and Account Type Conguration enables selection of additional transactions (transfers or
balance inquiries) or accounts (savings or credit card) that will be presented to the customer.
—e ATM transfers status information to the host processor using status monitoring with options to
send basic or advanced monitoring information.
—Triton Connect™ remote monitoring soware allows the user to view the journal, monitor operation
and alarm conditions, update operating parameters, update soware, and reset the ATM.

e ATM provides voice feedback via an integrated output jack, enabling sight-impaired users to plug in a set of
headphones and receive spoken instructions to assist them in using the ATM per the requirements of the Ameri-
cans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
A raised headphone symbol helps the user to locate the headphone jack. e ATM will automatically detect the
headphones when plugged into the jack, and will immediately switch to voice mode. A brief spoken tutorial will
orientate the customer to the ATM’s control panel interface. Once the customer begins a transaction, spoken prompts
will provide feedback and guide the customer through a successful transaction.

ARGO 7 and ARGO 15 models provide optional e-receipt technology. Units without a printer must use E-Receipt
or no receipt. e customer may choose a standard printed receipt via text message or email. Neither the ATM or
Triton retains the email information nor will either use it for marketing purposes. e screen will display the (*)
character in place of the actual email account information.
ATM reports may also be sent with this feature enabled, except for journal reports.
e ARGO 12 screen model does not have the e-receipt technology.
**Note**
e ATM must use the IP Communication setup for electronic receipts for this option and ATM reports. Text
receipts to a mobile phone require a processing fee.
Congure the E-Receipt via Management Functions: Terminal Conguration (6) > More Options (0) > Electronic
Receipts (7).

e ATM operates as a menu driven system. Messages and menu options presented on the LCD display screen will
guide the user’s actions. Press the on-screen key of your choice or one of the keys located to the le and right of the
display for the ARGO 12 to select the desired menu option. For security reasons, many screens will time-out aer
a preset time interval, usually 120 seconds. e time-out length may vary depending on the function performed.
When a screen times out, the next screen will ask the user if they want to remain in the Management Functions. If
the user presses the Cancel button, the ATM displays the Customer Welcome screen. If the user presses the Enter
button, the screen returns to the active function prior to the time-out. If the user does not select within an additional
30 seconds, the ATM will automatically go to the welcome screen.

A customer begins a transaction by inserting their bank card into the ATM’s card reader. A fully inserted card
will allow a proper read of the magnetic stripe and/or EMV chip. An incorrectly inserted card will cause the
screen to display a warning message. If the Auto Selection Language is disabled on the EMV Conguration
menu, the screen will display a language selection menu before proceeding with the transaction. For EMV trans-
actions, the display will instruct the user to remove the card prior to dispensing the cash.
Once the card has been read successfully, the customer must enter their PIN code. e customer will select the
transaction type and account, followed by a transaction amount. A surcharge message, if applicable, can appear
at the beginning or end of the customer transaction based on the preferences set within Management Functions.
e transaction typically processes within seconds. With a successful transaction, the display prompts the cus-
tomer to retrieve the requested cash and/or the transaction receipt. With a declined transaction, the ATM will
print a receipt indicating the problem. e gure below shows the ATM transaction process.
e ATM must be congured with a Host processor before a customer’s transaction can take place. e ATM
sends the customer transaction request to the processor. e processor, a nancial intermediary, such as an
independent sales organization (ISO), bank, or other institution, provides transaction processing services for the
ATM.
e processor routes the transaction to the appropriate ATM network based on factors like the type of ATM or
card used and location of the customer’s bank. e transaction can transfer between several networks before
ultimately reaching the customer’s bank or credit card company.
Regionally or nationally organized clearing house for nancial transaction, an ATM network, deals directly with
the appropriate nancial institution, such as the customer’s bank or credit card company, to complete the trans-
action. e ATM network routes the transaction to the appropriate institution, conrms the successful comple-
tion of the transaction, and sends a conrmation message back to the processor. If the process was for a cash
withdrawal, an electronic funds transfer (EFT) takes place to debit the funds and any applicable surcharge from
the customer’s account and credit the funds to the processor’s bank account.
e processor forwards a conrmation message and authorization to dispense currency to the ATM. e ATM
dispenses requested currency and a receipt of the transaction. e processor credits the merchant’s account for
any cash withdrawals plus surcharge fees typically by the end of the next business day.
