Preparing to Service Units

Enhancing Security

To enhance security, proceed as follows:
Design stations where employees have full, unobstructed view of all fueling locations. Do not
1
block employee view with merchandise displays or other obstructions. If full view is not
possible, utilize video surveillance equipment. Equipment monitoring must be made obvious
and signs stating their use must be posted.
Enter new programming access code, as default codes are commonly known. Only trusted
2
station employees and involved ASCs/CSCs must know these codes. Store the codes in a safe
and secure location known to all station management personnel. Unit service can be costlier, if
these codes are lost.
Use unit security kits when available. For areas subject to high risk of theft, consider the
3
additional security of special keys/locks to replace the standard locks. Such keys and locks can
be obtained from local locksmiths. This enhancement is extremely effective in preventing theft
modes using the keypad with the additional benefits of preventing potential tampering with
other dispenser devices.
Remove the keypads from the units and store them in the station or other safe locations. The
4
keypads must be accessible to station management or service people when required. A sign out
system can be used to track who last used the keypad.
Suggest that the station monitor "pump total" and "station total" reports comparatively. Theft
5
can be noted as fuel dispensed will still be recorded in "pump totals" (although not in "station
totals"), if a thief use the Manager's Keypad. When this will not prevent the theft that has
already occurred, it will alert the station as to whether security measures are working or must
be applied.
Plan to use modular programming "time-out" functions that shut down the unit if no pulser
6
activity occurs for a preselected time. Consult your ASC and determine if there is any optional
software that can be used on your units to enhance security.
Remind station personnel to be alert to any unit off-line message at the POS, accompanied by
7
suspicious activity at the pump/dispenser.
Plan to provide periodic/frequent inspection of equipment security provisions to verify their
8
integrity.
At installation and thereafter, ensure that lower door levers are adjusted correctly and do not
9
allow the panels to be removed easily without a key or tool. If you suspect that keys are
available to thieves in your area, consider using special locks and keys available from
locksmiths.
Be alert to dispensers being "off-line" or equivalent at the POS. Fuel theft could be occurring
10
especially if the customer is pumping fuel.
For units left powered during off hours, ensure that power to the Submersible Turbine Pumps
11
(STPs) is turned off.
