VRC2100 Vending Reader 

14 

Installation Guide 

- For CS Gold, set to 11 for the second VRC2100 in a chain,  
  12 for the next, and so on. 

This is the multi-drop device address of the VRC2100 on CS Gold. 
This number must match the setting in the 

Physical Address

 field of 

CS Gold TPS Configuration for the node. Its range is 

10

 to 

19

 and 

will roll over to 

10

 when 

CHG

 is pressed after address 

19

 is 

reached. This setting has no impact on Odyssey. 

 

Server:

 Specify the following settings: 

- For Odyssey, set to Odyssey. 

- For CS Gold, set to CS Gold. 

 

Encryption:

 Specify the following settings: 

- For Odyssey, set to 

On

 or 

Off

, as needed, to match the Odyssey 

   server setting. 

- For CS Gold, this setting does not appear. Encryption is  
  determined by the Location Configuration setting in the server. 

 

Termination:

 Specify the following settings: 

- For Odyssey, this setting is irrelevant. 

- For CS Gold, for a single VRC2100 not in a chain, this setting is 
  irrelevant. 

- For CS Gold, for the first VRC2100 in a chain, select 

On

- For CS Gold, for the subsequent VRC2100s in a chain other than 
   the last, select 

Off

- For CS Gold, for the last VRC2100 in a chain, select 

On

In a daisy-chain configuration (CS Gold only), termination must be 
set to 

ON

 only for the Master and for the last Slave in the chain. Any 

VRC2100s in the middle of a chain must have termination set to 

OFF

Note:

 For a single VRC2100 or for Odyssey platforms, this setting is 

irrelevant. 

 

PROX Sent as:

 Specify the following settings: 

When a VRC2100 is equipped with a contactless reader, the data 
can be sent to the host in various ways. The simplest method is to 
send the data from the contactless reader in "Raw Hexadecimal" 
form; for example, FA5923C1. A CS Gold or Odyssey media rule 
would need to be set up to map this hexadecimal number to the 
matching user account. 

- To send contactless card data in raw hexadecimal format, select 

HEX

- To send contactless card data in formatted ASCII format, select 

ASC
