4 MACHINE INTERFACES: HARDWARE The BV20 interface connector is located on the left side of the unit; it has 16 pins (see figure 2) refer to Table 5 for the pin allocation. Two are used for the 0V and +12V power supply and there are five outputs and five inputs, the remaining four pins are reserved for factory use and should not be connected.

(See Program Check Procedure, in Appendix D) Encryption Key Reset Function (ccTalk) Note: This function will only be possible if the BV20 is programmed to ccTalk mode. It is not possible to reset the key from SSP mode.
The 110V Voltage Regulator Module allows the BV20 to be used with machines that operate with a 110V AC supply. The modules attach to the back of the BV20 and are held in place by the expansion port clips and a single fixing screw. For unit and cable dimensions please see diagrams below.

Configuration Cards (See Appendix D – Configuration Cards) or via the ITL BNV Currency Manager program. In parallel mode the BV20 will issue a 100ms (±3%) active LOW pulse on the relevant vend line. A maximum of 4 channels can be used.
All four inhibits may be connected together to create a 'global' inhibit. In this way the BV20 may be brought in and out of operation by the host machine. Busy Output: (Pin 9). This is a general-purpose busy signal. It is active low while the BV20 is in operation.
Page 16
Note: Channels higher than four cannot be individually inhibited, but will be globally inhibited if inhibits 1 to 4 are inhibited. It is possible to operate the BV20 in low power mode with the Pulse interface. For further details please see Chapter 5.4...
Configuration Cards (See Appendix D – Configuration Cards) or via the ITL BNV Currency Manager program. In Binary mode, the BV20 will issue a binary pattern on vend lines 1 to 4 as shown in Table 9 – Binary Credit Outputs. A maximum of 15 channels can be used.
Page 18
Low Power Mode can be used with all none serial communication protocols to reduce the power consumption of the BV20 when idle. When the BV20 is in this state the current consumption is reduced to approximately 1.2mA. The BV20 goes into low power mode approximately 4 seconds after the validator is powered up and remains in this state until a note is entered (Time A).
Page 19
(Time A) When a note is inserted under the front sensor the BV20 wakes up and the busy line goes low to indicate that the validator is in use. The busy line remains low during the validating and stacking process and once the note has been successfully validated and stacked the vend line goes low to issue the credit.
NV4 to NV10. It is not recommended for use on new designs due to the possibility of noise effecting the communication. We recommend the use of a serial protocol with error checking such as SSP. The BV20 does not support the Simple Serial Data Out Only mode as available on the NV4 and earlier models.

BV20 Operations Manual The BV20 Bank Note Validators have a unique address – 00110XXX binary (30H). The VMC polls the bus to detect presence of the BV20 Validator or get information on the current status of the validator. The validators will respond when asked for activity with an acknowledgment, a negative acknowledgment or a specific reply, depending on its current status.
BV20 Operations Manual 5.8 CCTALK PROTOCOL – CCT The BV20 supports the ccTalk serial protocol for easy interfacing with host machines that support this protocol. To use ccTalk mode The CCT interface must be programmed into the validator via the Configuration Cards (See Appendix D – Configuration Cards) or via the ITL BNV Currency Manager Program.
If a configuration card is not entered, this function can be cancelled by pressing the button again once. It is now possible to check the programmed settings of the BV20 by pressing the Configuration button twice within half a second. (For details see page 2 of Appendix D –...

The BV20 Validator has been designed to minimise any performance variation over time. Much of this is achieved by careful Hardware and Software design. However, depending upon the environment in which it is used the BV20 may at some time require re-calibration.
• Datasets can only be downloaded to a BV20 with the correct bezel width for the currency. For example a USD dataset can only be downloaded to a 66mm BV20. A Euro dataset can only be downloaded to a 72mm BV20.
9.4 INTERNET WEBSITE SUPPORT The Innovative Technology Ltd website provides the means to download new and updated currency sets and new versions of firmware for the BV20. You can obtain these along with technical bulletins by visiting 9.5 E-MAIL SUPPORT If the data you require is not available over the Internet Innovative Technology supports an e-mail system to help customers with unusual requirements.
In the event of a note being forcibly removed from the mouth of the BV20 during the 30- second interval, the BV20 will go out of service for 45 seconds.
