This procedure is optional, but useful for testing purposes or when you are setting up a lot of nodes and want to test/troubleshoot them quickly.

<aside> 💡 Prerequisite: Make sure you have a cashier node setup first.

Turn on technician mode for this card

1. Open your web browser to the admin Web UI, click the “Cashier” button at the top of the page.
2. Take out a new and unregistered RFID card and swipe it on your cashier node.
3. The webpage should automatically change to show you the Card details for the new card.

1. Click “Card Options”, scroll down to “Admin Only”, and make sure that both of these options are checked:
   1. “Is Service Card” YES
   2. “Is Courtesy Card” YES
   3. “Is infinite balance” NO
2. Click “Finalize Transaction”

Congrats: You now have a special “Technician” service card.

Try swiping it on any node (including the cashier node) and it will do the following:

1. Display a special technician service screen with some info about this node (mac address, wifi, node ID, etc)
2. Ignore all config settings and send two different 2-second arcade coin pulses. (useful for testing).
   1. This special arcade coin line pulse test works on any node regardless of what mode (machine, kiosk, cashier, etc) that they are assigned to.
   2. This EVEN works when the node is unassigned, which is incredibly useful when setting up a LOT of nodes in a large arcade venue.
