  • Page 4: Introduction

    I. INTRODUCTION The STA VALIDATOR is a state of the art, optical reading bill acceptor capable of validating one, five, ten or twenty dollar bills. The STA can also accept the patented Hamilton paper Tokenotes®. Tokenotes® are only interchangeable between the STA Validator and HV-X Validators.

  • Page 5: Switch Settings

    Accept $20 Reject $20 When programming Tokenotes® with the STA, all switches need to be set to the “ON” position. The switches should be turned “ON” from BOTTOM to TOP, starting with switch 8. When programming is complete, the switches should be turned “OFF” from TOP to BOTTOM, starting with switch 1. This will prevent accidental entry into any diagnostic modes.
