– I/O Module Check Process 

The purpose of this troubleshooting process is to isolate and treat faults that occur 

in the Input/Output (IO) modu

le which controls the kiosk’s various lights (passport 

reader landing lights, printer bezel and status beacon) as well as the sensors for 

low paper, ticket stock low and main door open. The IO module itself is not user 

serviceable however, faults may be rectified by following this procedure.
