GAT Vending 6100 BA Installation 3 INSTALLATION 3.1 General Information There are two methods for installing the GAT Vending 6100 BA. - For vending machines with standard EVA cutouts, the aluminum mounting plate can be ordered as an accessory (Part No. 905127) and used to mount the terminal. - For vending machines without standard EVA cutouts, corresponding holes must be drilled into the front side of the vending machine. The aluminium mounting plate is not absolutely mandatory for installation. 3.
GAT Vending 6100 BA Installation To install the GAT Vending 6100 BA in vending machines with standard EVA cutouts, proceed with the following instructions and accompanying diagrams. ► Position the aluminium mounting plate next to the cutout on the inside of the vending machine in the correct orientation as shown in Figure 3.2. ► Attach the aluminium mounting plate to the vending machine using four bolts, washers and nuts (not included with the aluminium mounting plate). 1 .......
GAT Vending 6100 BA Installation ► Position the plastic mounting plate next to the previously attached aluminum mounting plate on the outside of the vending machine in the correct orientation as shown in Figure 3.3. ► Attach the plastic mounting plate to the aluminium mounting plate on the front of the vending machine using three M3 x 8 mm bolts (included with the plastic mounting plate). The bolts are attached directly to the threaded holes in the aluminium mounting plate (2 in Figure 3.1).
GAT Vending 6100 BA Installation 3.3 Installation in Vending Machines without Standard Cutouts ► Position the plastic mounting plate on the outside of the vending machine in the correct orientation as shown in Figure 3.4. ► Mark the positions of the three mounting holes (2 in Figure 3.4). ► Drill the three mounting holes in the outer wall of the vending machine.
GAT Vending 6100 BA Installation 3.4 Attaching the GAT Vending 6100 BA to the Mounting Plate After the connection cabling is connected to the GAT Vending 6100 BA (see "4. Electrical Connections"), the GAT Vending 6100 BA is attached to the mounting plate as follows. ► Align the GAT Vending 6100 BA onto the mounting plate so that both holding screws (3) go through the openings in the mounting plate and both hooks on the mounting plate also align with the corresponding openings in the GAT Vending 6100 BA.
GAT Vending 6100 BA Installation 3.5 Detaching the GAT Vending 6100 BA from the Mounting Plate To detach the GAT Vending 6100 BA from the mounting plate, the supplied GAT Reader WK special tool is required. The procedure for detachment is as follows. ► Insert the "GAT Reader WK" special tool (2) with its long side from underneath into the opening (1) until the hook is released. Keep the GAT Reader WK in this position. ► Slide the GAT Vending 6100 BA upwards.
GAT Vending 6100 BA Electrical Connections 4 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Safety Warning for the GAT Vending 6100 BA Due to its SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage Supply) design, the GAT Vending 6100 BA provides extra protection against electrical shock. However, be aware that vending machines operate at higher voltages so it is essential to always turn off the power supply of the vending machine before connecting the GAT Vending 6100 BA.
