AUTOMATED TERMINAL PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION AND RESOLUTION

Abstract:

A transaction terminals reports information regarding operation of terminal to a server-based analyzer. The analyzer labels the information and normalizes the labeled information into a model format. The analyzer reports the model format to a problem identifier/resolver. The problem identifier/resolver identifies a closest likely problem and a resolution for that closest likely problem based on the labeled information in the model format and reports the likely problem and resolution back to the analyzer for resolution on the transaction terminal.
