3 BCR SR5i
3.1 Introduction
Thanks to its intelligent expert system. AccepTelligence
™ the
SR5i offers an exceptional level
of first-time acceptance and security levels resulting in exceptional fraud rejection.
Full remote capability allows new coin specifications and other coin programming to be
downloaded via a connected host, while allowing diagnostics information to be transferred to the
host for effective and secure machine management and control. The integration of an encrypted
communications protocol further raises the integral product security to new levels.
3.2 Safety Note
To meet the requirements for EN 60950 the equipment must be installed according to the
following requirements:-

The equipment must be protected by a 3A fuse.

The equipment must be supplied from a SELV limited power source.

The equipment must be installed in an enclosure but positioned so that it is
external to any fire enclosure area within the main enclosure.
3.2.1 INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL
Warning: Ensure that the power has been disconnected from the SR5i before removal
or servicing.
3.2.2 HEALTH AND SAFETY
Warning: Due to the potential respiratory hazards, it is highly recommended that a
facemask be worn to prevent the inhalation of dust particles dislodged during the
maintenance or cleaning process or the clearing of jammed coins.
3.3 Operation
Coin discrimination parameters are factory programmed for optimum acceptance of up to 16
different coins or tokens and therefore no field adjustment is necessary beyond token select /
Teach and Run

However, the SR5i can now be programmed on site without the use of coins and for total
flexibility, if a new coin/token is required, the
Teach and Run

function can be used to program
all 16 coins.
Coins are inserted into a front or top entry acceptor and roll past a set of Series Resonant
sensors. If the characteristics measured from the inserted coin match the stored window
readings in all respects, then the coin is recognised as being true. The accept gate will then
open and the coin will pass through the accept sensor. Once this happens the SR5i will send a
predefined credit signal to the host machine which will correspond to the coin accepted. The
coin is then diverted to one of 4 different paths and subsequently an additional 4 paths by the
active manifold.
