GENMEGA ATM ERROR CODES

Error Code
ATM Error Description
Solution
CDN04
CDU Connection Failure
Check cables between CDU and Mainboard, remove cables (even though they may be attached) and re-connect. Use an electrical parts contact cleaner on terminals. This error is of concern only if it is repeated. Outside interference may cause it (neon signs, lights).
D1704
Modem connection error
Phone line connected to ATM will not support data communication. In line filter may help this. Excessive EMI emissions from outside source (neon sign, freezer)are likely causes. This can also be a problem with programming, check all programming (especially Dual Master Key setting and Host Processor Mode).
20001
Unable To Detect Cassette
Remove and replace cassette � Check the micro-switch located on the inside left wall of the dispenser. Adjust the micro-switch if needed, also check the white plastic clips that hold the cassette in place. If they are broken the cassette will not stay in the dispenser.
20002
Low Cash
Low cash warning sensor on dispenser is open. When �Low Cash Warning� is enabled in the Transaction Setup menu, this sensor will open when the cassette reaches (+/-) 75 bills. If this machine is typically stocked with a low amount of bills, we recommend disabling this function.
20003
Reject Bin is Full
Empty reject bin � if bin is empty, do a Cassette Total (from the settlement menu) � If that doesn�t help then check that AP, BIOS and CDU ROM versions are compatible.
20004
Vault Door is Open
This error occurs when the circuit between the mainboard and the door switch is open. Check vault door switch. This white plunger switch is located in the upper left corner of the vault, or on along the front edge of the cash dispenser tray. Also check that black and white, 2 wire connector is properly connected at rear of main board. Move the vault switch forward to aid door clearance problems. Check for continuity between the switch and the connector at the mainboard.
20005
CDU Type Mismatch
CDU ROM does not match AP software. The dispenser and mainboard are programmed with a country code (USA or Canada). The two codes must match. If they do not the 20005 error will occur in which case the CDU will need to be reprogrammed to match the AP on the mainboard. Also, if the wrong parameters are entered when the CDU is programmed, this error can occur.
20010
Receipt Paper Jam
Remove jammed paper � Release receipt paper drawer by pressing the tab with the green sticker located at the front of the printer. In most cases you may have to remove the printer to locate difficult jams. NOTE: Do NOT use metal objects to clear jams, use a business card or stiff paper. Make sure you only are using 21# paper. Paper of a lesser thickness is more prone to jamming.
20012
Receipt printer feed lever open
Close the feed tray on the printer. If the paper tray is already closed, try opening and closing the tray, try the printer reset switch. Otherwise the printer may require service.
20013
Receipt paper is empty
Replenish the paper roll, if there is already paper in the printer look for jams or obstructions. Try the printer reset switch. If it still has the error the printer may require service.
20014
Thermal printer is overheated
If this error occurs during the printing of a long journal, then allow the printer to cool and try again. You may also want to try the reset button on the printer to clear this error. If this error persists, the printer will require service.

C0011
CDU sensor is tripped
This indicates that during a dispense, the sensor located at the front of the CDU shows a blockage (CS13 or CS2). The primary reason for this is a bill which bounces back from the cash tray (sometimes from a customers fingers). Check the front of the CDU and the cash tray for blockage. Reinitialize the ATM to put back in service. In the case of a dispute from the error, use CDU data in the journal to verify how many notes were actually dispensed.
C0014
CDU sensor is tripped
Similar to the COO11 error, this would indicate a bill jam close to the exit of the CDU or near the reject bin. Check for jammed notes or blocked sensors.
C001x
CDU sensor is tripped
Most typically a COO11 error, this would indicate a bill jam at the exit sensor of the Cash Dispenser. Usually caused by a customer putting fingers in the cash drawer during dispense. Other than upgrading the cash tray or using a sign to warn customers, you can loosen the screws that hold the dispenser and slide it back.
C0028
CDU sensor is tripped
Check dispenser for jammed bills and restart the machine. If no bills are present try using compressed air to clean the dispenser (a sensor may be blocked by dust). Otherwise the dispenser may require service
