An ATM is operative to automatically self test a display module thereof. The test determines whether the display module fails to produce an acceptable display output. A predetermined color sequence is sent to the display module for display thereof. A sensor device positioned adjacent the display module screen senses displayed colors. A machine computer determines whether the display module displayed the correct color sequence. A display module error signal is generated responsive to the display module failing to display the proper color sequence. Testing of the display module can continue repeatedly to continually update its operational status.

Cash dispensing automated banking machine display failure detection system and method

An automated banking machine () includes a card reader () in the machine operative to receive cards from users. Cards that are to be captured and held in the machine are moved by the card reader to the interior of a bin (). Cards entering the bin are engaged with and moved away from the card reader by action of a movable member (). Authorized servicers recover captured cards from the bin by opening a lock () and accessing the interior of the bin by opening a lid (). The user interface of the machine includes a movable fascia portion () that assures proper alignment of the fascia opening and card reader and also minimizes the risk of undetected installation of unauthorized card reading devices.
