Abstract:

Apparatus for processing batchs of remittance and transaction documents by operating an encoder in accordance with a program stored in memory. A central processor unit sequentially generates a plurality of groups of data signals in accordance with the program. A card or document reader reads information stored on a transaction document and transmits the information through a card reader interface to the central processor unit. A switch control interface senses the states of a plurality of switches indicative of control and endorsement information and transmits the information to the central processor unit. A display interface causes a display to display numeric and control information stored on the transaction document in response to one of the groups of central processor unit data signals. An encoder interface causes the encoder to encode a remittance document with the transaction document information and to endorse the remittance document with the endorsement information in response to another group of central processor unit data signals. The encoder interface also accepts control and numeric information from the encoder and transmits this information to the central processor unit.
