Power
(only when NOT
connected through MDB)
Placing SIM and/or SAM Modules
Place a SAM (Secure Application Module) if the selected payment scheme requires this.
Place a SIM card, if the terminal is equipped with the optional GSM/GPRS modem.
The SAM slots are located under the hatch marked "SAM MODULES" and the SIM under the
hatch marked "MODEM". Use a Philips head screw driver to remove the screws of the
hatches.
NOTE: After placing the SAM and/or SIM modules make sure the hatches are secured
again with the screws.
Placing GPRS Antenna
1. Place antenna externally for better signal strength. (Recommended)
2. If signal strength is strong inside the machine (2+ bars) internal installation is better.
3. Make sure the antenna is not completely surrounded by metal or mounted on metal.
4. Use caution when fastening the external antenna cable to Coax connector on the terminal,
Test
After boot up the terminal will automatically connect to the servers and, if applicable,
download the latest settings configuration and/or firmware. If a new configuration is
downloaded, the terminal automatically reboots to activate the new settings. When the
terminal is connecting the display will show the following Icons in the upper left corner:
GSM/GPRS Modem
MDB Connection
If the communication with the server and/or network has been lost, the respective icons will be visible or
blinking in the display to indicate the problem.
Test transaction
Connect a laptop to the terminal through USB and use the Vending Tool application to:
- Perform a test transaction
- Check signal strength: If signal strength is below 11 normal operation cannot be guaranteed,
(reception loss)
too much force can damage the connection.
1. Make sure products are present, if the Vending machine requires this.
2. Power the Vending machine.
3. Make sure prices are setup in the Vending Machine before the vend test
4. Make sure door switch does no inhibit the machine's work state
The bars show the signal strength of the GPRS connection. When the terminal is
connecting the 'i' will be blinking. As soon as the 'i' is stable the connection has been
established with the GPRS network and the modem is working properly.
please check the trouble shooting section to optimize signal strength.
