Description
9.1.1 Overview
The GPT Bill Acceptor and ancillary items Paper Roll: provide advanced solutions
for the entry, security, analysis, and accounting of bill currency. It communicates
with the Main Board via generic serial channel COM 1 (which is connected through
P13 on the Backplane).
The full system provides a range of features, including:
•
A bill acceptor for entry, sensing and acceptance of bill currency. The unit
incorporates a microcontroller, an operating system, RAM and ROM.
•
A stacker unit holds accepted bills in a highly secure environment. It is
electronically linked to the bill acceptor. A memory module within the stacker
stores identification, diagnostic, and accounting information.
•
The Bill Acceptor Cage Assembly houses the bill acceptor and stacker. The
assembly is located at the right-hand side of the cabinet. The stacker or bill
acceptor may be accessed by opening the belly panel door, without having to
open the Cabinet main door.
•
A unique number is available from a serialised, integrated circuit embedded
within the main cable connecting the bill acceptor to the host machine. The
number allows the tracking of stacker units for maintenance, accounting and
operational control.
•
Diagnostic and statistical data information are available through the RS-232
port of the bill acceptor when removed from the EGM. This is not accessible
from the EGM.
