Abstract: A coin dispensing system comprises a drawer including a bottom wall connected to opposite sidewalls, and a plurality of spaced dividers between the opposite sidewalls defining a plurality of columns for supporting vertical tubes of currency. A plurality of dispensers, one for each column, are provided each for withdrawing tubes of currency from an associated column. A plurality of sensors, one for each column, are provided each for sensing quantity of tubes in the associated column. A control system is operatively associated with the sensors for determining quantity of currency in the drawer.

Abstract: A control unit to control an electronic lock on a safe includes an electronic lock for the safe. The electronic lock receives signals from an external computer, and controls the safe in response to the signals.

Abstract: A parking payment status map represents payment status of multiple parking locations as recorded on a parking management computer system. The map is retrieved by a parking control officer through a wireless communications network from the parking management computer system. The parking control officer can therefore verify payment status of multiple parking locations simultaneously. The map can be viewed on standard web browsers. User-interface controls enable user-controlled panning, rotation, and refreshing of the parking payment status map.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method of using a control unit to control an electronic lock on a safe comprising the steps of providing an electronic lock for the safe, receiving signals at the electronic lock from the computer, and controlling the safe in response to the signals. An apparatus for controlling an electronic lock on a safe comprising an electronic lock incorporated in a safe an input/output port coupled to the electronic lock for receiving signals from a control unit, and a control signal received at the input/output port for opening the safe.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a method of using a control unit to control an electronic lock on a safe comprising the steps of providing (402) an electronic lock for the safe, receiving (404) signals at the electronic lock from the computer, and controlling (406) the safe in response to the signals. An apparatus for controlling an electronic lock on a safe comprising an electronic lock (305) incorporated in a safe an input/output port (110) coupled to the electronic lock for receiving signals from a control unit (120), and a control signal received at the input/output port for opening the safe.

Abstract: A cash validation system is used with a point of sale system to provide a self service check out system. The cash validation system comprises a bill acceptor for receiving paper currency. A coin changer receives and dispenses coins. A control unit is operatively coupled to the bill acceptor and the coin changer for monitoring and commanding operation of the bill acceptor and the coin changer. An interface is operatively coupled between the control unit and the point of sale system for communicating information on received paper currency and coins to the point of sale system and receiving requests from the point of sale system to dispense change and response to the requests commanding operation of the coin changer.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a method of monitoring a safe comprising the steps of providing (402) an electronic lock for the safe; receiving (404) information from a security device in an area proximate to the safe; and making (406) security information from the security device during a transaction with the electronic lock. According to another aspect of the invention, an apparatus for monitoring a safe comprises an electronic lock (144) incorporated in a safe; a control unit (142) coupled to the electronic lock; and a security system (148) coupled to the control unit.
