Dual Density Calibration
Dual Density Calibration Card (Money Controls part number 49x307) is required to perform this
calibration procedure. If this card is not available, obtain one from Money Controls before starting this
procedure. Please note that the unit is calibrated at the factory and should not need routine re-calibration by
the end user. The probability that poor acceptor operation is caused by improper calibration is very low.
Calibration should only need to be performed after a unit has had a circuit board changed or an optical part
was changed in the density circuit.
THE CALIBRATION CARD ONLY AFFECTS THE DENSITY
CIRCUIT AND WILL NOT CORRECT ANY OTHER PROBLEMS.
CAUTION
Calibrating the acceptor with anything other than the calibration card specified will cause poor or
no note acceptance.
Calibration Procedure
1. Follow the instructions in the Diagnostics section of this manual to:
- Install and set-up the equipment for bench mode operations.
- Set up the Host Simulator software for bench mode operations.
- Start bench mode as described in the Diagnostics section above.
2. Once setup mode is active, access the Message Window. The screen display includes an auto
calibration status line that reads:
Autocalibrate: DISABLED
3. With the Message Screen displayed, start the Auto Calibration sequence by typing ACAL. The
CAPS software responds with the message:
Insert the calibration card
