[0080]
When the counting is completed, the counting result is sent from the coin counter 1020 and the bill counter 1030 to the terminal controller 1040. Then, the terminal controller 1040 collates the counting result with the receipt details data.
[0081]
If the counting result does not match the receipt details data, a message indicating that there is a difference is displayed on the screen of the terminal controller 1040. If there is additional cash, the person in charge of the office center causes the counters 1020 and 1030 to count the cash. If there is a security, the distinction between our shop ticket / other shop ticket and the number / amount are sequentially manually input to the terminal controller 1040 (S1212). When the difference becomes zero, the account number and the total amount are displayed on the screen, and the account is checked again (S1213). If there is no problem in the result of the check, the data such as the account number and the total amount is sent to the host computer 1050, and the payment of the corresponding customer's account is executed (S1214).
[0082]
Then, the above counting / counting process (S1213 to S1214) is repeated for all the second and subsequent storage bags, and the depositing process ends.
[0083]
In the present embodiment, the terminal controller 1040 is connected to the host computer 1050 via a communication line to perform the payment registration for each processing. However, the terminal controller 1040 and the host computer 1050 are not connected. It is also possible to temporarily store the information of the payment registration in an external storage device such as a floppy disk, and finally to perform the processing in the host computer 1050 collectively.
[0084]
As described above, the unlocking operation can be facilitated also by the present embodiment. Also, as in the first embodiment, the unlocking operation can be further facilitated by setting the passwords of all the storage bag lock devices 900 to be the same.
[0085]
In addition, according to the present embodiment, since the content of the ID data can be read without unlocking the storage bag lock device 900, the ID data can be confirmed at the bank office.
[0086]
Further, since the collation between the cash stored in the storage bag and the deposit slip is automated, the work load can be reduced, and the occurrence of a work error can be prevented.
[0087]
In addition, according to the present embodiment, it is not necessary to manually input a deposit slip into a computer, and it is sufficient to perform a check using the screen of the terminal controller 1040, so that the work load can be reduced.
[0088]
In each of the embodiments described above, the transmission / reception unit using infrared rays is used as the non-contact communication unit. However, it is a matter of course that a unit using another method such as a sound wave or a radio wave may be used. When infrared communication is used as the communication means, it is necessary to align the direction of the transmission / reception unit (131, etc.) of each storage bag lock device for batch unlocking, but if sound waves or radio waves are used, Since there is no need to do so, the unlocking operation is further facilitated.
[0089]
Further, in each of the above embodiments, the case where the storage system including the storage bag lock device and the external controller is used for the night safe is described, but it is needless to say that the storage system can be used for other purposes.
[0090]
