3 – Configuration and Installation

Confirmation of Version Information

Use the STATUS command to view the current software revisions. Each Gasboy CFN
operating system contains three sections.

Site Controller (SC) III Operating Software

The SC III operating software is the top layer software that controls all operations. It performs
the following:

• Communicates with pump interfaces, network routers, and card handlers.
• Acts as the trail guide for all data that passes in and out of the system.

Network Router

The network router receives credit card/network-authorized Fleet Card information from the
card handler and communicates it to the designated network host.

Card Handler

The card handler receives the card data from the operating system and distributes it according
to the card type. The Quarles network uses the NBS-GL3 handler. When a Quarles Fleet Card
is swiped at the reader, the SC III operating software sends the Q-card information to the card
handler. Here, the data is verified and routed to the network router.

Example: The following screen capture of the STATUS command shows the information that
is required to determine the version of the software that is running. The current Quarles
installation displays Site 3.4K operating software, Router NBS 1.2.3.7 and Handler NBS GL3
003. If you are at a Quarles site and do not have these minimum versions, you must upgrade.
To order the software and enquire about other details, call Gasboy’s Customer Service
Department.
