II. SWITCH SETTINGS
When programming Tokenotes® with the STA, all switches need to be set to the “ON” position. The switches
should be turned “ON” from BOTTOM to TOP, starting with switch 8. When programming is complete, the
switches should be turned “OFF” from TOP to BOTTOM, starting with switch 1. This will prevent accidental
entry into any diagnostic modes.
Switch #1 should ALWAYS be in the OFF position. The Validator will not function properly
otherwise.
Switch #2 should be in the ON position unless the new Hamilton Tokenotes® are being
used. If they are being used, this switch should be moved to the OFF
position. When the #2 switch is ON, the Validator rejects Tokenotes®
already programmed in.
Tokenotes for the STA Validator have been printed using improved
techniques for code generation and acceptance. Because of this step
forward in Tokenote® technology, these new Tokenotes® and
Tokenotes® purchased for use with previous Validators, other than
the HV-X, are not interchangeable.
Switch #3 selects which direction the Validator will accept an inserted bill. If this switch is
OFF, the Validator will accept bills face up in either direction. If this switch is
ON, the Validator will only accept bills face up and the end with the black
seal inserted first. New $5, $10 and $20 bills will only be accepted Black
Seal first.
Switch #4 selects how the Validator signals the dispensing equipment after accepting a bill.
If this switch is OFF, the Validator will activate the $1 Relay once for an
accepted $1 bill, the $5 Relay once for an accepted $5 bill, the $5 Relay
twice for an accepted $10 bill, and the $5 Relay four times for an accepted
$20 bill. If switch #6 is ON, the Validator will activate the $1 Relay once for
an accepted $1 bill, the $1 Relay five times for an accepted $5 bill, the $1
Relay ten times for an accepted $10 bill, and the $1 relay twenty times for
an accepted $20 bill.
