Part 12
CASH DRAWER
The PST7700 installed with power management kit option is able to
control most of the common cash drawers available on the market. However, it
is recommended that the Posiflex CR-3100 or CR-3200 or CR-4000 or CR-
4100 or CR-4210 be used since the terminal has been designed to compliment
these cash drawers both mechanically and electrically.
The PST7700 will directly control the cash drawer using the cash
drawer port (CR) both to operate the opening mechanism and to monitor the
drawer open status. Both functions may be accomplished under software
control of the COM1 serial port.
Use the cable supplied with the CR-3X00/4X00 cash drawer (Part No.
CCBLA-180) for connection to the CR port in PST7700. This cable has a 6
pole plug at one end and a 8 pole plug at the other. The 8 pole plug should be
inserted into the connector marked: “signal cable from POS Printer” at the rear
of the cash drawer. The 6 pole plug should be inserted in the connector marked
“CR” found in the rear room of the terminal.
The user may also use the optional 2-in-1 cash drawer control cable
CCBLA-238 to control 2 cash drawers in 1 port. It has a 6 pole plug at one end
and two 8 pole plugs at the other. The 6 pole plug should be inserted in the
connector marked “CR” found in the rear room of the terminal. Each 8 pole
plug should be inserted into the connector marked “signal cable from POS
Printer” at the rear of one of the cash drawers. The cable lengths for the two 8
pole plugs are different. Use the shorter one for the original cash drawer
“CR1” and use the longer one for the extended cash drawer “CR2” that will be
distinguished by the software command.
AC POWER
The power supply operating voltage
must
be checked and altered if
necessary. This must be done
WITHOUT
any connection to the AC power.
The operating voltage adjustment switch is located close to the power
input connector in the rear room.
The switch should indicate either 115 volts or 230 volts. When set at
115 volts the acceptable power supply voltage range is 90 volts to 130 volts
whilst at 230 volts the acceptable power supply voltage ranges from 190 volts
to 260 volts.
The power supply cable should first be connected to the power inlet
(but
NOT
the wall socket). This cable should be secured to the latticed bottom
of the rear room using a cable tie provided. The cable may exit either at the
side or back of the rear compartment by using the relevant breakout section in
the chassis plastic molding.
