The RBC-ED250 automatically checks for counterfeit bills using UV, MG, and IR detection during the counting process. If a suspicious bill is detected, the machine will stop, and an error code or alert will be displayed. Remove the suspicious bill and press the START button to resume counting.

Batch mode allows you to count bills into predetermined quantities (batches).

• Press the BATCH button to activate Batch mode. The "BATCH" indicator light will illuminate.
• Use the + and - buttons to set the desired batch quantity (e.g., 10, 20, 50, 100).
• Place a stack of bills into the hopper. The machine will count until the set batch quantity is reached, then stop.
• Remove the batch from the stacker. The machine will automatically resume counting the remaining bills for the next batch.
• To exit Batch mode, press the BATCH button again.

5. Value Counting

The RBC-ED250 can calculate the total value of counted bills. This feature requires you to count each denomination separately.

• Separate your bills by denomination (e.g., all $1s, all $5s, all $10s).
• Select the dollar denomination for the current stack using the appropriate buttons (refer to the control panel for specific denomination selection).
• Count the stack of bills. The machine will display the count and the value for that denomination.
• Repeat for all denominations. The machine will track the cumulative value.
• After all denominations are counted, the RBC-ED250 will provide the total number of bills, the value of each denomination, and a grand total amount.

Maintenance

Regular cleaning is essential for maintaining the accuracy and longevity of your currency counter. Dust and debris can accumulate on sensors and rollers, leading to errors or jams.

Cleaning Procedure:

1. Power Off and Unplug: Always turn off the unit and unplug it from the power outlet before cleaning.
2. Dust Removal: Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust and lint from the hopper, stacker, and internal sensors. Pay close attention to the bill path.
3. Sensor Cleaning: Gently wipe the UV, MG, and IR sensors with a soft, lint-free cloth, possibly dampened with a small amount of isopropyl alcohol if necessary. Ensure sensors are dry before use.
4. Roller Cleaning: Clean the rubber rollers with a soft cloth. If rollers appear worn or dirty, they may affect bill feeding.
5. Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
