An automated transaction machine includes a plurality of cassettes of at least two different configurations. A first cassette may include multiple cavities with an internal transport, while a second cassette includes a single cavity. A first cassette may include lid access from both a top and bottom, while a second cassette only includes lid access from a top.

A control unit transmits an initial value of a position ID to a cassette control unit at a top in a daisy chain by a serial line. Having received the position ID from the control unit or the cassette control unit of a previous stage in the daisy chain, the cassette control unit recognizes it as a position ID of its own cassette. Where there is a following cassette control unit in the daisy chain, the cassette control unit calculates a position ID of the following cassette control unit to transmit to the following cassette control unit.

A sterilizing media cassette is described for docking with a self-service terminal or a docking terminal. The sterilizing media cassette has a body having a lower portion and four sides. The body is adapted to hold a stack of media items such as banknotes on support members positioned above the lower portion of the body. A lid is provided that couples to the body. The lid forms an enclosed inner space when coupled to the body. An ozone gas source and/or a heat source is mounted on an inner surface of the body or the inner surface of the lid. A controller activates the ozone gas source and/or a heat source to sterilize the stack of media items. This may be done for a predetermined fixed period of time after the sterilizing media cassette is docked with a self-service terminal or a docking terminal.

Various embodiments are directed to systems and methods for remotely monitoring cash reserves within a plurality of cash handling devices, and for automatically initiating change orders to maintain optimal levels of cash reserves within those cash handling devices. Certain embodiments remotely monitor closing transaction data received from those cash handling devices. Based at least in part on portions of data reflected within the closing transaction data, retrieve historical usage data relating to a forecast period; generate a usage forecast for the forecast period, and based on the generated usage forecast and the closing transaction data, generate message data for transmission to external systems to facilitate the maintenance of optimal cash reserves within those cash handling devices.

A sheet storage apparatus and a sheet handling apparatus that allow attaching or removing of a storage bag with a simple structure and less space are provided. The sheet storage apparatus of the present disclosure includes an attachment unit including an attachment portion to which a storage bag for sheets is attached, a moving unit that moves the sheets toward an inside of the storage bag, and a first slide unit that slides at least any one of the attachment unit and the moving unit such that a relative position between the attachment unit and the moving unit is changed between a first position in which the attachment portion is covered with the moving unit and a second position in which the attachment portion is exposed to allow attaching or removing of the storage bag.

A modular ATM can include a cabinet module and a head module. The cabinet module can include an outer housing, a chest positioned in the outer housing to store notes of value, a transport mechanism to move the notes of value out of the chest, a base receiving section, and a first electrical connector forming an electrical connection to the transport mechanism. The head module can be removably engageable with the cabinet module and include a computing device, at least one user-interface device controlled by the computing device, a main structure supporting the at least one user-interface device and the computing device, a rear shroud connected to the main structure, a base supporting the main structure and the rear shroud, and a second electrical connector mounted in the base and forming an electrical connection to the computing device.
