Tidel SENTINEL

The Sentinel family of Cash Management Systems is designed with flexibility and efficiency in mind. The Sentinel can operate either on a stand alone basis or installed as a node on your existing network, and its Windows based software provides secure, 2-way communication between the Sentinel and POS or Sentinel and Corporate Offices. The networked Sentinel system allows users to view and download transactional data or reports, download software enhancements and transfer status indicators or data logs. Tidel's software also provides the unique ability to electronically "command and control" the operation of the Sentinel through the POS terminal, providing full accountability and effectively closing the cash management loop.

The Tidel Bulk Coin Dispenser and Recycler module will change the way you think about cash automation in your counting room. Due to the Sentinel modularity, the Bulk Coin Dispenser with Recycler may be coupled with a High Capacity Note Dispenser and a Note Validation module to provide a complete solution for employee cash accountability. Cashiers begin their shift by dispensing coins and notes authorized for their own till drawer. At end-of shift, cashiers drop their coins and notes back into the system for final bank out. The Sentinel BCD-R module saves you time and eliminates manual counting errors and shrink by automating all of your cash management functions so you can focus on business and not counting cash.
