How do I clear a note jam?

Remove the acceptor by pulling upwards on the release lever located on the front of the
acceptor module and pull away from the chassis. Open the acceptor by sliding the yellow
acceptor latch forward then clear the note jam.

20)

Is it OK to swap Acceptors among my machines?

Same model Acceptors may be easily swapped (i.e. SC8302 to another SC8302).
Verify that the following has been confirmed by the STS program 

before installing back

into the machine and applying power:

1)The correct firmware is installed.
2)The correct BEG is installed for that particular machine.
3)The correct acceptor configurations are selected.(bills are enabled/disabled, proper
BEG selected)

Different model acceptors (i.e. SC8304/07 to an SC8302 or vice versa) require, in addition
to the changes above, a matching interface card (PCB).
SC8304/07 require EBDS interface card (PCB).
SC8302 require netplex interface card (PCB).
