Patent number: 8121914Abstract: A method for visual programming an automated transaction machine (12). The method includes the creation of terminal directors (225) that generally correspond to transactions performed by the automated transaction machine. The terminal directors are programmed by visually creating associations (238) between a plurality of ATM objects (230, 232) in a work space (224). Exemplary ATM objects include an authorization object (260), a back stage control object (262), a card reader object (264), a customer profile object (266), a depositor object (268), a dispenser object (270), keypad object (272), a logic object (274), a OCS object (276), a presenter object (278), a PIN entry object (280), a printer object (282), a sync object (284), and a transaction data object (286). The customer profile object is operative to retrieve customer profile information responsive to a determined customer of a person using the ATM.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2000Date of Patent: February 21, 2012Assignee: Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: Jay Paul Drummond, Bob A. Cichon, David Weis, James R. Church, Mikal R. Gilger, Jagadesh Myana, Todd Blakeslee, Aravind Dongara, Mark A. Moales, Radhika Reddy Bodapatla

Patent number: 7653601Abstract: A method of operating a cash dispensing automated banking machine includes causing through operation of a processor of a cash dispensing automated banking machine, a card reader of the machine to read data from a card which corresponds to an entity with which a customer operating the machine has an account. The method also includes providing through operation of the processor, at least one visual output through a display device on the automated banking machine, The visual output uniquely corresponds to the entity with which the customer has the account.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2005Date of Patent: January 26, 2010Assignee: Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: Jay Paul Drummond, Bob Cichon, Mark Smith, David Weis, James R.

Patent number: 7603302Abstract: An automated banking machine (12) is operative to conduct transactions in response to HTML documents and TCP/IP messages exchanged with a local computer system (14) through an intranet (16), as well as in response to messages exchanged with foreign servers (20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 96) in a wide area network (18). The banking machine includes a computer (34) having an HTML document handling portion (76, 80, 82) including one or more browsers. The HTML document handling portion is operative to communicate through a proxy server (88), with a home HTTP server (90) in the intranet or the foreign servers in the wide area network. The computer further includes a device application portion (84) which interfaces with the HTML document handling portion and dispatches messages to operate devices (36) in the automated banking machine. The devices include a sheet dispenser mechanism (42) which dispenses currency as well as other transaction function devices.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2000Date of Patent: October 13, 2009Assignee: Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: Jay Paul Drummond, Bob A.

Patent number: 7555461Abstract: A system for connecting transaction services to an ATM (10, 500) that includes a network (20). A user interface service (12) and a lookup service (22) are in operative connection with the network. Transaction services such as a printer service (16), card reader service (18), and cash dispenser service (14) are also in operative connection with the network. These transaction services are operative to register with the lookup service and to upload a service proxy to the lookup service. The user interface service is operative to locate transaction services on the network by invoking a remote lookup method on the lookup service. The lookup service is operative to return service proxies that match the type of service that is required. The user interface service is further operative to invoke methods of the service proxies that remotely control the functionality of the transaction services on the network.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2000Date of Patent: June 30, 2009Assignee: Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: Jay Paul Drummond, Bob Cichon, Mark D. Smith, Dale Blackson, David Weis, James Church, Mikal R. Gilger
