SC-350/360
3.6 Computer Communication
The SC-350/360 can communicate with many computer controlled
applications. A serial interface is fitted at the rear of the machine.The
machine can be used in many ways, for example:
• As a dispenser (SC-350/360):
The machine is used for dispensing coins. A cashier uses a
computer to control the machine so that it delivers the correct
amount of coins to each customer.
• In a cascade:
Several machines are connected in a cascade arrangement to form
a fast and efficient coin sorter. Each machine is connected to a
central computer and sorts only one coin denomination. The
computer carries out the accounting work by producing receipts
or by updating a database.
• As a massive coin counter:
Several machines are connected in a parallel arrangement to form
a coin sorter of considerably increased capacity. Each machine is
connected to a central computer which controls the operation of
the massive coin counter and carries out the accounting work by
either producing receipts or by updating a database.
