    – e.g. clearing a jam. The MCBF of the BV30 is 100,000. Media Requirements Due to the bezel size of the BV30, it cannot accept notes that are wider than 72mm. The minimum and maximum dimensions for notes in are as follows: Dimension...
  • Page 11: Hardware Compatibility

    It is vital that the BV30 is connected to a power supply capable of providing the required power environment. A weak power supply causes malfunctioning of the BV30 such as note rejects or missing credits. If the BV30 is used as a fitting replacement for an older model or product we recommend to check the power supply specifications of the machine.

  • Page 33 The IF9 is an interface that allows serial SSP to be used in machines without the need to update the host machine software. The IF9 is connected between the BV30 and the host machine. The IF9 communicates with the BV30 in serial SSP which gives more security along the length of the cable.
  • Page 34 The Low Power Mode can be used to reduce the power consumption of the BV30 when idle. When the Low Power Mode option is set, the BV30 goes into the Low Power Mode after about 6 seconds after the BV30 is powered up and remains in this state until a note is entered.
  • Page 35 Credit Hold Function If this function is enabled the BV30 will take the notes as normal but then wait until the escrow line is toggled low/ high before it will then give out the pulses per denomination as set. After the pulses have been given, the BV30 will wait for another low/high toggle until the full value of credit pulses are given.
  • Page 36: Recommended Cleaning Intervals

    Do not use solvent based cleaners such as alcohol, petrol, methylated spirits, white spirit or PCB cleaner. This will result in permanent damage to the BV30, only use a clean dry cloth or a mild detergent where absolutely necessary.

    If there is no communication between the BV30 and the host machine, check that the 16-pin connector is securely connected to the validator and that there is no damage to the cable. With the BV30 powered on, check the protocol that is being used to ensure it is configured correctly for the host machine. Configuration Button Functions explains how to check the protocol.

  • Page 49: Escrow Control

    Escrow Control The BV30 has a single note escrow facility. This allows the BV30 to hold onto the note once validated, and then only stack the note into a cashbox when the host machine confirms that the Vend operation has been completed. If no confirmation of the Vend is received, then the note will be returned to the user after 30 seconds.
  • Page 50: Escrow Timing Diagram

    Low Power Mode can be used with all none serial communication protocols to reduce the power consumption of the BV30 when idle. When the BV30 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 51 When the Validator is enabled the Inhibit Line is Low and the Busy Line is High. This remains the same until a note is inserted (Time A). When a note is inserted under the front sensor the BV30 wakes up and the busy line goes low to indicate that the validator is in use.
