3-6-1. X/Z collection
This is used when it is desirable to obtain the counters and totals of the individual terminals.
For collection results (normal end or error end), the satellite does not print it out on the
receipt/journal during X collection. But the results of the Z collection are printed out in the
journal during Z collection.
The printer should be connected to the collection master terminal.
3-6-1-1. X collection processing
X collection processing is performed as the figure shown below.
1 An X collection command is started up from the master terminal.
2 The terminals send their report data to the consolidation work file of the master.
3 Report data from the satellite's terminal file are printed out on the master's R/J printer.
4 After the master terminal's processing completes, the same processes described in the
item 1 to 3 are executed for the other terminals. Data will be sent without the clerk
noticing, even when the satellite in the process of registering.
3-6-1-2. Z collection processing
Z collection processing is performed as the figure shown below.
1 When a Z collection command is started up from the master terminal, the master first
locks an objected terminal.
2 The terminals send their report data to the consolidation work file of the master
terminal.
3 Report data from the satellite's terminal file are printed out on the master's R/J printer.
4 The data of satellite's terminal file are cleared, and then the Z lock of the satellite
terminal is released.
5 After the master terminal's processing completes, the same processes described in the
item 1 to 4 are executed for the other terminal.
NOTE:
• When a Z collection is performed, the consolidation data cannot be output. If output of
consolidation data is desired, perform “collection/consolidation” processing described
later.
• Even if an error is occurred, or if the processing is terminated, the data to be collected
remains as they are, and Z lock statuses are automatically released.
