INITIAL SETUP
1. Fully unpack all of the boxes that accompany this changer. This should include the one that the changer and this manual
are in, and any additional boxes that may contain the Bill Box, Battery Charger, or spare batteries, etc.
2. Unlock and open the door to the changer. The keys to the door lock will be inside the manila envelope along with this
manual.
3. Inspect the changer’s interior for any shipping damage that may have occurred, including dislodged components or
connectors.
4. Before permanent installation, perform a functional test to further verify there is no shipping damage to your AC401
changer. To set up the changer, first connect the white two-position connector that is loose in the bottom of the cabinet to
the white connector attached to the top of the battery (refer to Figure 1 below). Ensure that the gray connector is fully
connected at the top of the hopper’s front face. Then, add some coins to the hopper, at least enough to cover the two
metal plates at the bottom of the Coin Bin, or approximately 100-150 coins. The changer is now ready for testing.
NOTE: the LED at the top of the hopper’s front face will blink every seven seconds or so while the changer is in Sleep
mode. If it is blinking faster, around once per second, there are not enough coins in the hopper (refer to Figure 4). Once
the changer has been tested and is working properly, continue with the remainder of the procedure.
5. Insert the Bill Box inside the changer. It should slide in on the right side of the cabinet, with its bottom resting on the two
studs protruding from the right interior wall, just above the battery. The part on the top of the Bill Box that sticks out
toward the left is designed to block accepted bills from falling into the hopper’s Coin Bin. Refer to Figure 2 below for
proper placement.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
When your AC401 arrives from the factory, the 12 Volt Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) battery supplied with the unit may not be
fully charged. In order to get the most use out of your changer, charge the battery fully before using the AC401 for the first
time. You can use either the supplied Battery Charger (ACC P/N AC400.4) or another one, as long as it complies with the
charging specifications detailed in the “Battery Specifications” section of this manual (refer to page 6).
Refer to the following procedure to charge the battery if using the supplied battery charger. If a different charger is to be
used, read the directions given here for removing and reinstalling the battery, and consult your charger’s manual for specific
charging instructions.
