INSTALLING THE TERMINAL
NOTE
If you are going to install a 4G communications board and
antenna, prepare the vending machine first: see
for instructions.
If you are going to install a SIM card or 4G comms board
(described on
), complete this task before installing
the VALINA in the vending machine.
Step 1: Check the gasket positioning
The lugs (pins) in the rubber should fit into the terminal open-
ings above and below.
Step 3: Connect power and communication cables
Figure 9: Power connections – Microfit (left), MDB (centre), RS232 (right)
There are six numbered interfaces on the back of the VALINA, for connections to external peripherals.
For detailed information on pinouts, see
Ports and pin-outs, on page 19.

Step 2: Mount the VALINA in the vending machine
1. Line up the VALINA with the front panel opening on the
vending machine.
2. Clamp the EVA frame to the rigid front plate of the machine
using four locknuts.
Note:
These locknuts are not included in the terminal package.
3. Tighten the locknuts in a Z-pattern.
To avoid damaging the VALINA, do not over-tighten the nuts.
0.7 Nm is recommended, depending on the material the front
plate is made from.
After mounting the VALINA on the vending machine, continue
by connecting the power and communications cables.

RS-232
RS-232 port with RTS/CTS flow-control, for connecting
peripherals such as ePOS equipment or a printer. The port
allows connection speeds up to 115,200 bps and is fitted
with an RJ45 connector. See
for information on flow control. The RS-232 port can also
be used to provide a power supply.

can be used to connect to a USB stick or other storage
device.
4
USB device
USB 2.0 high speed (up to 480 Mbps) device interface,
which can be used to connect to ePOS equipment/PC and
to perform key loading.

TTL
TTL connector Microfit 43045 has one output and up
to three inputs: used to attach a peripheral to the terminal.
The TTL port can also be used to provide a power supply.
6
MDB
MDB interface supports the MDB 4.2 protocol, for commu-
nicating with vending machines or other devices
supporting the standard. The MDB port can also be used
to provide a power supply.
