Single Price Interface
Diagram illustrating the Credit Output (O/P) circuit for the Single Price Interface, similar to the Pulse Interface.
5-2. DIP Switch Setting
The PA7/PV7 has two sets of DIP switches located on the side and on the CPU board for interface settings. These settings can be adjusted based on currency requirements. Refer to the "PA7/PV7 DIP Switch Setting Guide" for detailed information.
5-3. Software Download and Upgrade
To download and upgrade the software for the PA7/PV7, the programmer (FP-004) is required. Contact ICT to purchase the FP-004 and consult its user guide for instructions. Power must be applied to the Bill Acceptor after connecting.
6. Maintenance
Regular cleaning of the internal parts ensures smooth operation of the bill acceptor.
- Press the buttons on the sides of the bill path and pull the unit out.
- Use a soft, dry cloth or towel to clean the bill path and LED/sensors.
Maintenance Notice: Any improper maintenance may result in an invalid warranty.
- Recommended: Mild, non-abrasive, soap water.
- DO NOT USE: Organic solvent, Alcohol, Volatile liquid.
7. Troubleshooting
7-1. Bezel LED Errors
| LED | Status | Correct Actions |
|---|---|---|
| GREEN | White Card Calibration. | Please calibrate with ICT white calibration card. |
LED Flashes (RED)
| Flashes | Status | Corrective Actions |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bill jammed. | Remove the bill box by sliding the top button and the bill path unit, then remove the jammed bill. |
| 2 | Inhibit on. | Inspect for right DIP switch settings. |
| 3 | Sensor error. | Inspect for foreign objects on sensor and hook, then clean. |
| 4 | Stringing attempt has detected. | Inspect for foreign objects on sensor or bill path and clean. |
| 5 | Stacker has been removed. | Replace the bill box. |
| 7 | Motor error. | Inspect for foreign objects on bill path and clean. |
| 8 | Stacker error or Stacker full. | Inspect for foreign objects in bill box and clean, or remove bills in bill box. |
7-2. Back LED Errors
The Back LED errors are similar to the Bezel LED errors, with the GREEN LED indicating White Card Calibration. The RED LED flashes indicate specific issues such as bill jamming, inhibit status, sensor errors, stacker issues, or motor errors, with corresponding corrective actions provided.
! If the error cannot be solved after corrective actions or happens again, please contact ICT for technical support.
