1) The chipcard function is not implemented in the operating system.
2) Lifetime in a clean office environment!

In a damp or dirty environment the lifetime is approx. 1/3 less than the lifetime given above.
The lifetime of the reading contacts is strongly dependent upon the operating conditions of the respective reader. In climatically
extreme conditions within the permitted specified temperature and humidity levels, in a dusty and dirty atmosphere or with dirty
cards, the lifetime can be significantly reduced. The increased wear and tear on the contacts might then necessitate replacement
of these parts even within the guarantee period. Parts subject to wear and tear are therefore excluded from the guarantee.

Flash memory card
Printer
controller
Function
Besides a report, a receipt is also required after refuelling, especially at public filling stations. A
conventional journal printer is not necessary if you use PC Flash memory cards. Like the journal
printer the electronic journal records all system activities and refuelling data. However, it is no
replacement for the bi-directional communication via AUTOPOLL/FuelData as the electronic journal
only works in one direction.
The memory card placed below the printer can be removed if required, read back via the memory
card drive at the PC and processed with the software PCCARD.
Before every storage TA 2331 checks whether a working flash memory card is available in the flash
memory drive.
Memory capacity
see paragraph 2.6.7.2
The journal printer works only with the variants Stand alone, CRID and HECPUMP.

2.6.9.1 End-of-paper (memory-) pre-warnings
Journal printer / receipt printer

A light barrier controls the end-of-paper pre-warning. When less that 7.5 m paper are left on the roll
the display of the TA2331 shows the status message “3“.
If the end of paper is reached at the receipt printer you can carry on refuelling.
The customer receives a message on display “service without receipt“.
When the end of paper is reached at the journal printer the TA2331 goes “out of
operation“ with a corresponding message on the display. In this state refuelling is
not possible!
2.6.9.2 Memory full at electronic journal

3. INSTALLATION
3.1 General safety remarks
In addition to the safety instructions described in chapter 1 the following rules do apply:
Personnel requirements All operations require specialist knowledge. For this reason the
installation and set up of the TA2331 can only be carried out by
service technicians who have been trained by Hectronic on this
kind of machine.
EMC-compatible To avoid EMC problems, only shielded wiring may be used. The
installation shielding is generally applied on one side (that of the terminal).
Peripherals / accessories Only peripheral equipment and accessories manufactured or

authorised by Hectronic may be used. Alterations to the
equipment may only be carried out following agreement with
Hectronic. If this is not observed, claims under guarantee against
Hectronic shall be rendered invalid.
During transportation and storage the environmental conditions

apply as cited in the “Technical Data”. If these instructions are
not observed claims under guarantee will not be recognised.
3.2 Installation inspection
All important items as TA2331 type, site, pump type, the execution of mounting work and the fixing of
responsibilities should be registered during the installation inspection. We have prepared a checklist
for you on the following page.

3.4 Installation of TA 2331
3.4.1 TA 2331Stand alone
Selecting the site According to the corresponding regulations the TA2331 must be
mounted outside the EX zone area.
For the mounting you have to provide a levelled horizontal foundation

surface. The minimum distance between TA2331 and pump is 35 cm.
The cable feed pipe via the foundation requires an opening of about
50 mm in diameter.
Foundation frame The foundation frame must be cemented into the foundation about 75
mm in depth and has to be levelled by means of a spirit-level. (Pos.1).
Order no. foundation frame: 2330.81.114.00

Dowel fixing For the dowels S 12 – not included in the delivery – you need drilling
holes of 12 x 80 mm in diameter (Pos. 2). For fixing you should use 4
hexagon screws 10 x 80 with washers 10,5 x 21 x 2,5. Furthermore,
for the horizontal installation shims can be found in the TA2331
installation kit.

3.7 Installation variants
¾ Connection via pulse interface

All mechanical pumps are connected to the TA2331 via the so-called pulse interface. The
pulses are not counted in the pump but directly in the Autofuel Terminal. As a precondition a
pulse generator and a pump nozzle switch must be mounted in the pump. The TA2331
controls the release of the pump via a release relay.
¾ Connection via data interface

Pumps which are equipped with a price calculator can be easily connected to the TA2331 via
a data interface. As a precondition the pump calculator must have the ER3 protocol (Z/Y-
protocol) as a data interface. The pump is then exclusively controlled via the data interface.
The ER3 protocol is a special kind of standard and has been implemented by many pump
manufacturers.
¾ Connection of pulse output of an external calculator

Pump calculators which do not work with the ER3-protocol, so-called external calculator,
have mostly a pulse output (also called Optokoppler output), which is decoupled via
Optokoppler . This output can be used for the pulse counting. You also have the possibility to
control electronic pumps which do not work with the ER3 protocol.
3.7.1 Connection via pulse interface (MR)
To control a pump via pulse interface from the Autofuel Terminal the pump must be equipped
with a pulse generator, a pump nozzle switch and a pump motor contactor.
¾ Pump nozzle switch: Recognises the start and end of filling transaction
¾ Pulse generator: Provides the pulses for volume and price
¾ Pump motor contactor: Controls the pump motor
Stand alone For the Stand alone variant there is a terminal box in the Autofuel
Terminal’s pedestal in which all connection terminals are situated.
Thus, the entire electric installation takes place in the terminal box.
Wall-mount versions If the Trim-Line version or Slim-Line version are to be installed the
connection cables must be clamped directly at the CPU as for these
variants a terminal box is not available.
During installation please ensure that all cables are led through the
proper PG screwings and that the screwings are fixed for tension
relief.

3.8 Connection via data interface (coupling electronics)
A maximum of 4 ER calculators (with Release III software up to 8 ER calculators) can be connected

to the TA2331. The so-called coupling electronics serves as an interface between TA2331 and pump,
transforming the party line interface on the Autofuel Terminal side into the Z/Y interface. The coupling
electronics of the ER variant can be found in the ER terminal box and is built into the Autofuel
Terminal’s socket instead of the MR terminal box. The coupling electronics will be connected to the
CPU (X19) via the party line interface RS422.
The ER calculators have to be connected to the coupling electronics via the two-wire-interface (Z/Y).
The following calculator types can be connected via the data interface of the coupling electronics:
Pump manufacturer Calculator type Interface name of the coupling electronics

Hectronic Kienzle ER3/2; ER4 Kienzle Interface
Marconi (Salzkotten) e.g. EL112; ER112; Kienzle Interface

3.9.3 ER price pole at S&B or Gilbarco coupling electronics
An ER price pole cannot be connected directly to an S&B or Gilbarco coupling electronics. In

this constellation a second coupling electronics „Kienzle“ must be installed.
Use the Kienzle coupling electronics as „master“, i.e. voltage, data and the price pole will be
connected. The second coupling electronics (S&B or Gilbarco) is connected via a 1:1
connection cable and does not need a separate power supply ( next page).

3.12.5 Modem configuration
Hectronic has approved the following modems:
Modem Type
Analogue modem Creatix, U.S. Robotics, Zyxel
ISDN terminal adapter TA micro
GSM modem Siemens M20, TC35i
ISDN modem Stollmann Adapter
The modems will not be configured via the Autofuel Terminal. They must be initialised with the help of
a terminal programme (e.g. HyperTerminal). For the above modems the manufacturer has already
stored the required TA 2331 and Autopoll/ FuelData commands. During set up you only have to select
the correct modem type.
The stored modem parameters are transmitted to the modem upon each new start of the TA 2331
and before each data retrieval. This is an additional safety procedure.

3.17 Car-wash control
3.17.1 Connection of Kärcher car-washes
You have the possibility to connect Kärcher car-washes for commercial vehicles directly to the
TA 2331 via the MR interface. The Kärcher car-wash itself is controlled via a SPS control. The
selection of a washing programme is transferred to the control via a BCD code (4 bit). The
control itself has 3 registration signs which indicate the condition of the car-wash.
The following types can be connected:
Kärcher car-washes for commercial vehicles types RBE, RBG, and RBD.
Administration of product names and prices

The TA 2331 can process up to 9 different fuel types. To each fuel type a price can be
allocated. You can include the names for the fuel types and the unit prices in the parameters via
AUTOPOLL/ FuelData. The prices are stored with two digits and two decimal places. The
names of the individual washing programmes can have up to 10 characters.
The cars wash function is activated via the parameter „carwash“ in the AUTOPOLL/FuelData
software.
A mixed operation with pump control is not possible.
Operation procedure:
Basic condition: Please insert card

No washing program active
Basic condition: Washing program active
Washing program is active
Basic condition: Out of operation
In case of failure
When a card is inserted the authorisation procedure is the same as until now (also for a double card system),
this includes also the optional additional entries.
Instead of the pump selection the following display appears:
Please enter program

number: _ _
Here you can enter a washing program number from 1 to 8. Press the Confirm key to confirm your entry. The
system then checks in an internal procedure whether the corresponding washing program is available. If this is
not the case the following text is displayed:
Program not available

Please enter program
number: _ _
If the washing program is available the program number is sent as a 4 bit code to the SPS control to start the
washing program. The following text is displayed:
Wash program active
87
3.17.2 Connection of other car-washes
Other car-washes which do not have a compatible interface (4-bit BCD code) can be connected via a
car-wash interface. This program makes a relay contact available for every „washing program“.

3.18 Initial operation (Initialization)
3.18.1 Initial operation by the service engineer
Before switching TA 2331 on there is an inspection to ensure that all plug-in connections and
the individual components are fixed properly.
When the electrical installation has been completed the mains voltage at the TA 2331 can be
switched on. On the display the message „out of operation“ appears in different languages
alternately. This message means that the Autofuel Terminal is not initialised and is ready for
parameter entries.
Buffer battery
The battery is situated on the CPU and retains the data in case of power failure. It is a lithium
battery with a very long lifespan (approx. 4 years). On delivery the battery is not contacted.
Before the initial operation it is absolutely necessary to contact the lithium

battery as otherwise all data in the TA 2331 will be lost in case of a power
failure!
3.18.2 Calibration switch
All data which are relevant for calibration are secured by the so-called calibration switch. This
means that these data can only be altered if the calibration switch is active. Therefore, the
calibration switch must be activated to initialise the Autofuel Terminal. After initialisation the
switch is moved back and secured by the calibration cover (metal square). In case of a
calibration the calibration official puts a seal on this cover.
The following parameters are secured by the calibration switch:
¾ Printer parameter
¾ Pulse valence (only for MR variant)
¾ Max. refuelling time and tank volume per pump
If the calibration switch is moved to the direction of the battery it is activated

which means that the parameters can be altered.
You can carry through initialisation via the guided menu or via the comfortable Polling Software
FuelData.

4.4.7 Program 08: Display stock balance
This program displays the current stock balance for the individual tanks and prints it when the journal
printer is selected. Calculation of the stock balance depends on whether the tank is equipped with an
electronic tank level gauge (Optilevel system) or not.
On the connected receipt printer only the operator can select the printout.
If more than four tanks have been defined press any key to display further tanks or wait until a pre-
defined time limit has been reached.
Stock balance calculation is only possible if you have activated this function
during system initialisation ( chapter 3, Initialisation).
Without tank level gauging
The Autofuel Terminal calculates the current stock as follows:
Old stock (opening stock)

+ deliveries
- volumes dispensed
= new stock
All deliveries must be entered correctly and completely with Program 09 to

receive reliable information on the calculated current stock. Stock adjustments
after a manual dipstick reading can be entered via Program 97.
With tank level gauging
If a tank level gauge is connected to the Autofuel Terminal you can use this program to carry out an
automatic level gauging. The current stock data of each tank will be displayed:

Fuel cards authorise for filling. Additionally, the card type code for fuel cards defines the allocation to
driver or vehicle respectively and to the card system.
Single Card System:

The single card system requires only one card to release the refuelling procedure. This can either be
a vehicle card or a driver card. In the single card system as well as in the dual card system a further
identification can be required to release a pump, e.g. manual entering of a PAN or a self-check
number.
Dual Card System:
In the dual card system the customer must insert both the vehicle card and the driver card to release
the refuelling procedure. The filling transaction is stored under the vehicle number and the driver
number is stored in the field “driver/vehicle number“.
PetroPoint Card:
This fuel card type can exclusively be used in connection with the automatic vehicle recognition
(PetroPoint). A PetroPoint card is always a vehicle card.
Management Card:
This card grants access to the operator programs.
Technician Card:
This card grants access to the Technician programs. It cannot be used for refuelling.

Input Code
The input code defines which entries you have to make manually at the TA 2331 apart from inserting
the fuel card to release the refuelling procedure:
• odometer reading • PIN

• driver/vehicle number • additional information
For the calculation of the average consumption you must enter the odometer reading.
Note: Entering the odometer reading is only possible for card type 0 and 1 (vehicle card)

Self-check of driver/vehicle number (+16):

The pre-condition for the automatic self-check of the driver/vehicle number by the Autofuel Terminal is
the allocation of a self-check number. You will find a table with self-check numbers in the TA 2331
operating manual. However, this function can only prevent accidental input errors and does not
protect the system against manipulation. To create self-check numbers, add figure 16 to the individual
code.
Display the average consumption (+32):

If you want to show the customer the average consumption on display during the refuelling procedure
you have to add the figure 32 to the individual input code.
Manual entry of the PAN as second fuel card (+64):

Instead of the second card the manual entry of the unique card number (max. 19 digits) can be
required. To enter the second card (driver/vehicle card) manually, add figure 64 to the input code.
The PAN for the second card must be defined in the same way as a fuel card. If the
PAN is smaller than 19 digits, it is finished by a “ = “ sign.

Product Code
With the product code you can determine for which fuel types a fuel card is authorised.

Filling limit code

The filling limit code defines:
• type of limit • whether the remaining amount of fuel which

Per each refuelling can still be dispensed should be displayed
Per time span / period during refuelling release or not
Per refuelling transaction:
The filling limit is the maximum volume which can be filled per refuelling procedure.
Per time span / period:
The filling limit is the maximum volume which can be filled within a certain period. The volumes of
each filling are accumulated. The remaining volume shows the volume that can still be filled until
the end of the period.
Filling limits per time span can only be used if the Autofuel Terminal is connected to a PC.
Code Type of limitation

0 Filling limit per refuelling transaction without display of remaining volume
1 Filling limit per time span without display of remaining volume
2 Filling limit per refuelling transaction with display of remaining volume

This program prints the content of the transaction memory on the connected printer. The fuel data
records are printed first and then the stock data records are printed in chronological order.
Before printing the system checks whether the records have already been printed.
In this case you are prompted whether all data records or only not yet printed data records should be
printed. After printing all records are marked as printed.
The program run does not delete the contents of the transaction memory! If you
do not want to transmit the transaction data to a PC, you should delete the
transaction memory with Program 52. Only after the data have been transferred
to the PC the transaction memory will be deleted.

4.5.14 Program 74: Set Hecpump variant
Technician Program 74 is used to enable a new Hecpump variant (no. 4).

Hecpump variant 4 has been implemented for high-performance pumps with
120 liters and 2 filling points, and works like variant 1.
How it works… Upon selection of filling point 1 release relays 1 + 2 will be activated and the
pulses of filling points 1 + 2 totaled in filling point 1.
Upon selection of filling point 3 release relays 3 + 4 will be activated and the
pulses of filling points 3 + 4 totaled in filling point 1.
Both filling points work independently of each other.
The customer can only select filling points 1 and 3 (2 belongs to 1, and 4 to
3).

4.6 Additional functions
4.6.1 Enter on-road fillings
With this program the operator or a customer can manually enter the volume of on-road fillings.
Entering on-road fillings is important to calculate the average consumption and to record all fillings
completely.
You can only enter on-road fillings if this function has been activated during
system Initialisation ( chapter 3, Initialisation).
On-road fills including the relevant odometer readings should be entered before
starting refuelling. Error messages that are generated when the odometer
reading plausibility check is negative can thus be avoided. Only if the data
relating to on-road fills is entered correctly can the average consumption
evaluation provide reliable information.
Procedure:
(1) Insert card
(2) If required make further entries like code no. or odometer readings
(3) When the message "Enter pump !" is displayed select the pump and press the Confirm key
(4) When the message „Start refuelling!“ is displayed, press the "#" – key and then the Confirm
key
(5) make your entries according to the displayed instructions:
(6) enter the refuelled volume (max. 6 digits) and press the Confirm key
The on-road filling is marked on the printout by "enter fill manually".

4.6.2 Autarkic operation mode
The autarkic operation mode serves to enable the customers to continue refuelling in case of partially
or fully blocked functions. This function is mainly used when a customer is not able or should not be
able to identify himself at the terminal.
By switching the system to autarkic operation:
ª all pumps connected to the TA2331 are released
ª all refuelling transactions are stored under the special card number 9995.
Mechanic calculators will release all relays!

If the TA2331 is connected to a PC, the refuelling transactions made during
autonomous operation are stored in the transaction memory.
Switching to The TA2331 is switched from normal operation to autarkic operation by

autarkic operation activating a key switch located inside the housing on or close to the Controller
Board.
Stand alone Wall mounting
Hecpump
Switching back to The key switch must be deactivated to reset the TA2331 to normal operation
normal operation mode.
Data evaluation When the system is in normal operation mode, the contents of the transaction
memory (no. of fillings and changes in wet stock) can either
• be printed at the Autofuel Terminal by executing Program 51 or
• be transferred to a connected PC.

This error is recognised by the TA 2331
2 = sensor error
error is transmitted from tank level gauge electronics to the TA 2331
The following error combinations are possible and can be displayed as a code at the TA 2331:
x (Error type) y (Error type) Error description

1 1 Stop bit error
1 2 Check sum error
1 3 String syntax error
1 4 Timeout (tank level gauge does not answer)
2 1 Invalid combination of gauge dip switches

2 2 No connection to EEPROM
2 3 No electronics adjustment performed
2 4 No dry and wet adjustment performed
2 5 Field adjustment is being performed
2 6 Temperature sensor error
e.g.
tank level gauge error T3 = 2 3
Electronics adjustment was not performed at tank level gauge no. 3.
171
6.2.4 Data transmission error
If a transmission error occurs during data transmission between PC and TA 2331 (polling)
transmission will be interrupted. „Transmission interrupted“ is displayed on the third line of the TA
2331 display. The second line shows the corresponding error code (e.g. PC error:1). These problems
can mostly be solved by starting a new transmission.
The following errors can cause a transmission interruption:
Error code Description

1 Document length error
2 Document identification index error
3 Timeout; PC does not answer
4 Length error at record 2. The length indicated at the beginning of the
data record does not correspond to the actual length
5 Erroneous data received by PC
6 PC always answers with NAK
7 PC has not acknowledged correctly (ACK0/ACK1 sequence)
8 PC or AUTOFUEL wants to send a wring card type
9 Wrong PIN or AUTOFUEL number
Example:
PC error: 6
transmission interruption

6.2.5 Error messages pump communication
If an error concerning the ER interface occurs it is recorded as a code in the display of the
AUTOFUEL and simultaneously listed in the electronic journal.
Pump communication consists of two different interfaces. The party line interface is the connection
between CPU and coupling electronics. Errors concerning this interface are recorded as PL errors.
The ER interface is the connection between coupling electronics and pump calculator. It is a 2-wire
power interface. Errors concerning the ER interface are listed as ER errors.

6.2.6 Party line error messages (coupling electronics)
Errors which occur in connection with the party line interface are displayed as PL errors on the display
and in the electronic journal.
Example of a PL error:

6.3 Error diagnosis
Whenever you start a data retrieval the TA 2331 sends its status record first. This status record
contains the current TA 2331 status which stores information about the program release of the
operating system, the number of tank data stored, the number of power failures, etc. With this
information you can recognise possible errors at the TA 2331. During data retrieval you also have the
possibility to obtain only the TA 2331 status record while all other data as parameter setting, cards
and tank data remain untouched.
