READER INSTALLATION
All wiring should be completed by a trained electronic technician.
To install the reader
1 Power down the vending machine.
Refer to the vending machine operation manual.
2 Prepare a 3.3" x 4.2" cut-out (slightly larger allows reader to fit easily), and then drill four
3/16" holes for mounting studs in the center locations of the slots.
See: the Vending Reader Face and Mounting Dimensions (page 1-5).
If replacing an existing bill acceptor, remove the bill acceptor.
If installing in a pre-cut opening, remove the filler plate.
3 Slide the face of the reader through the opening from the inside of the machine.
If using a mounting plate, slide it over the face of the reader from the outside of the machine.
4 Install four flat washers and four nuts or threaded standoffs onto the threaded studs to secure the
reader.
If installing in a non-conductive panel in the vending machine (such as a plastic front panel), a
customer supplied ground wire should be connected from one of the mounting studs to a grounded
metal part inside the machine.
Data cables are susceptible to electrical noise that can corrupt data. Avoid routing cables near
electrical equipment, including fluorescent lights, compressors, and motors.
