47.1-1221  Definitions for slot machines.
 (10) Ticket definitions: Eff 03/02/2007 
(a)  Delayed Ticket: A ticket generated by a TITO-enabled slot machine, which contains all information necessary for validation, but for which the TITO system has not yet received the validation information. Eff 03/02/2007 
(b)  Incomplete Ticket: An incomplete ticket contains, at a minimum, the ticket validation number printed across the leading edge of the ticket, but is not of a quality that can be validated and redeemed through the automated functionality of a TITO system. Eff 03/02/2007 
(c)  Online Ticket: A ticket which contains all information necessary for validation, which may be presented for redemption to the TITO system before its expiration. Eff 03/02/2007 
(d)  Redeemed Ticket: A ticket which has been properly validated and redeemed by the TITO system and is no longer reflected as an active (i.e., unredeemed) ticket in the TITO system database. Eff 03/02/2007 

(e)   Offline Ticket:  A ticket generated by a TITO-enabled slot machine, which contains all information necessary for validation, but is not of a quality that can be validated at a slot machine or ticket redemption kiosk.  When the system is offline, other system programs allow for the generation and redemption of tickets.  
 
47.1-1272    Types of tickets.
(1)    	A TITO-enabled slot machine must be capable of generating two types of tickets: on-line tickets and delayed tickets.
(2)    	On-line tickets: If a TITO-enabled slot machine is properly communicating with the TITO system, the machine will be able to generate an on-line ticket. When a patron requests the issuance of a ticket in this situation, the machine will generate a ticket that utilizes the validation information generated by the TITO system or the machine, and communicate to the TITO system that it has successfully completed the transaction.

(3)    	OFF-LINE TICKETS:  If a TITO-enabled slot machine is off-line, system components allow for the authentication of tickets produced by the host system during down time, verification that the redeeming system was also the issuing system, and validation of the ticket in the system. 

(4)	Delayed Tickets: If a TITO-enabled slot machine loses communication with, a TITO system before validation information is successfully communicated to the TITO system for the last ticket out transaction, then all subsequent cashout attempts must result in the gaming machine issuing payment to the player via another available means such as, but not limited to, a hopper pay or a handpay. The gaming machine must be capable of storing delayed ticket data until such time that it has been successfully communicated to the TITO system. However, the TITO system may continue to issue tickets provided printed information on the ticket includes an authentication code derived by a hash or other secure encryption method, verifies the redeeming system was also the issuing system, and validates the amount of the voucher.  
(a)    	TITO systems may include a function whereby, prior to the restoration of communications, delayed ticket information may be manually input into the TITO system at a cashier station or other secure location.
(b)    	When communications are restored, delayed ticket information provided by the machine to the TITO system must be reconciled to the delayed tickets that were manually HONORED redeemed.
(5)(4)    	Tickets expire 120 days after issuance which is explicitly stated on each ticket. Upon expiration, the ticket is no longer valid for gaming purposes. TITO systems must recognize expired tickets as invalid and unredeemable.
