EBDS Protocol
[WITH] ACCEPTOR
[MAX <Count> NOTES] [SCALE <Scale Factor>]
[WITH] RECYCLER [AND ESCROW] [NO RETURN]
[MAX <Count> NOTES] [SCALE <Scale Factor>]
An EBDS communications line can connect to one singe unit. This has to be specified as
either a “standard” EBDS note acceptor or to an SCR recycler.
The SCR recycler can run in one of two modes, the normal
S
ingle
N
ote
E
scrow, or the
extended
M
ulti
N
ote
E
scrow where a number of notes can be escrowed and if necessary
returned - the optional
AND ESCROW
turns on extended escrow for this processing.
The
NO RETURN
keyword sets the SCR recycler to retain bills in the event that
communications with the Paylink is lost.
EBDS bill acceptors can have a very large number of different note identities, which can
cause problems with the Paylink firmware. The
MAX <Count> NOTES
overrides the Paylink
default of 16. Where the number on the acceptor is greater than the number in Paylink,
Paylink folds the identities to overlap each other,
The optional <Scale Factor> is a power of ten that is used to adjust the value read from the
acceptor before decoding into the Paylink value.
MEIBNR Protocol
[[WITH] ESCROW]
An MEI BNR bill recycler connected to the Paylink system by the MEI supplied DLL. This line
causes the Paylink program to look for and attempt to load a DLL called MEIBNR.DLL. This
DLL will only load if the MEI supplied interface DLLs are available.
The option ESCROW parameter indicates that extended escrow will be used with the
recycler. No parameters are supplied as the details of extended escrow storage are
completely handed by the device.

CX25 Protocol
A CX25 coin dispenser can either be connected to a normal RS232 port, or USB.
