Safety Information
WARNING!
- Risk of suffocation through small parts, packaging and protective foil!
- Keep the product and packaging out of reach of children!
CAUTION!
- Risk through infeed rollers!
- Keep fingers, hair etc. away from the infeed.
- Risk of tripping due to improperly laid cable!
- Lay cables so that people cannot trip over them.
ATTENTION!
- Risk of property damage!

- Prevent exposing the device to environmental influences such as smoke, dust, vibration, chemicals, moisture, heat or direct sunlight.
- Repairs may only be carried out by appropriately trained specialists.
Intended Use
The banknote counter with validation functions, subsequently referred to as a banknote counter, serves to count bank notes. Any other use is considered unintended use. Unauthorised modification or reconstruction is not permitted. Under no circumstances open the machine or complete any repair work yourself. This device checks two of the features of the bank notes (ultraviolet feature and magnetic feature) to ensure they are not counterfeit. If other features of the notes have been falsified or are missing, this device cannot detect the notes as being critical. In the same way, an authentic banknote can be detected as being faulty due to soiling or some other external influence. Therefore, test bank notes detected as being faulty several times and, in the case of doubt, consult your bank institution.
Only Use in Suitable Conditions
Prevent exposure to smoke, dust, vibration, chemicals, moisture, heat and
direct sunlight.

After switching the machine on, it performs a self-diagnosis. During the self- diagnosis. appears in the display. When the self-diagnosis has finished without any errors, X0 appears in the display.
- If an error is detected, it is indicated in the top display (refer to the Error table) and the background turns red.
Validation Tests
- The best results are achieved after a warm-up phase of 3 minutes.
- Bright ambient light can affect the sensor and falsify results.
- Before inserting the bank notes, select which features (magnetic and/or ultraviolet) you want to test.
- Press the MG button.
- The magnet sensor used to detect the magnetic ink is activated/deactivated. When activated, the sensor is indicated in the display. When activated, the sensor is indicated in the display.
- Press the UV button.
- The ultraviolet sensor for detecting UV light is activated/ deactivated. When activated, the sensor is indicated in the display.
- Preparing Bank Notes Pay attention to the following points to prevent malfunctions.
- Check the batch of banknotes for paper clippings, paper clips, rubber bands and other foreign bodies (A) and remove them before inserting the bundle in the machine.
- Do not insert any damaged bank notes (B).
- Smooth any creased and folded bank notes before inserting them (C/D).
- Do not attempt to count notes that are too thick or hard items.
- Fan out the bank notes to separate them prior to insertion.
Inserting Bank Notes
- Slide and fan the bank notes in the bundle so that the top banknote is somewhat lower than the one following. Insert the bank notes in the infeed tray (A). Or
- Insert the bundle vertically in the infeed tray and guide the bundle to the rear so that the bank notes shift against each other (B).
- The counting process starts up automatically if the automatic start function has been activated (AUTO appears in the display).
- Bank notes which have been inserted incorrectly, as illustrated in C and D, lead to an improper count or a malfunction.
- Since the security features of banknotes are provided on both sides, the process for detecting counterfeit banknotes is performed reliably on both sides.
Functions
Counting
- This function counts the number of banknotes and, depending on the sensor setting, their validity.
- During the counting process, the quantity of banknotes appears in the top display.
- When the bank notes counted are removed from the output tray, the quantity count in the top display is reset to X0 and the bottom display displays the quantity.
Adding
If several bundles of bank notes are stacked in the infeed tray one after the
other, counting continues even if the bank notes already counted are removed
from the output tray.
- Press the ADD button
- The Add function is activated/deactivated.
Batch
This function causes counting to stop when the preset quantity of banknotes
has been counted. If the counted batch of banknotes is removed from the output
tray, the display is reset to X0 and the next batch is counted.
The quantity of bank notes can be set to any number between 1 and 999. The
preset quantity appears in the bottom display.
If the infeed tray becomes empty before reaching the preset quantity, BATCH
flashes in the display. When more bank notes are inserted in the infeed tray,
the process is resumed.
Press the BATCH button.
- BATCH flashes in the display. The preset quantity of 100 appears on the bottom display.
- Use the digit buttons to enter the quantity you want to be counted.
- The quantity entered appears in the bottom display.
Sorting
- With this function, which is always activated, the first banknote is used as a reference for those following. If the machine detects a banknote that deviates from the reference note, the machine stops. d appears in the display, the background of which turns red. The deviating bank note can be removed.
- Whether the removed banknote should be counted or not can be defined in the settings (refer to Settings).
Settings
The sensitivity of the sensor and other parameters can be modified using the
respective Settings function.
- Press the SET button for a few seconds until the acoustic signal stops.
- d05 and C5 100 appear in the display. d05 represents the current value of the memory segment C5 100. You can change the value using the arrow buttons.
- Press the SET button again.
- The next memory segment appears together with the value.
- After pressing the SET button for the last memory segment you exit from the Setting function.
The table below contains the default settings and functional assignments of the memory segments.

Clearing Errors
Errors are indicated in the display by an error code and the display
background turning red.
A frequent source of errors is the soiling of the sensors (see Cleaning the Sensors).
| Error code | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| A | Too little or no ultraviolet reaction from the banknote. | Remove critical |
notes from the batch.
Check the sensitivity setting of the UV sensor.
b| Too little or no magnetic reaction from the banknote.| Remove critical notes from the batch.
Check the sensitivity setting of the MG sensor.
C| Bank notes were detected as being chained.| Check whether the bank notes
stick together and count the batch again.
F| Bank notes as half bank notes.| Remove critical notes from the batch and
check for signs of damage.
E01| Banknote count sensor| Clean the sensor for counting the notes or replace
it with a new one.
E03| Coding disk sensor| Clean the sensor for the coding disk or replace it
with a new one.
E04| Infeed tray sensor| Clean the sensor for the infeed tray or replace it
with a new one.
E05| Output tray sensor| Clean the sensor for the output tray or replace it
with a new one.
Maintenance
Cleaning the Sensors
-
Bank notes are often soiled, particularly by dust. The dirt deposits on the sensors during the counting process. Soiled sensors are the most frequent cause of malfunctions.
-
Clean the sensors with the brush supplied. Open the banknote counter to clean the sensors. How to open the bank note counter is described in the following steps.
-
Grip the bank note infeed at the sides and remove the infeed vertically out of the machine. Do not grip the infeed in the middle section.
-
Pivot the grip to the rear.
-
Pivot the operating panel to the front.
-
Clean areas which cannot be accessed using compressed air, if necessary. Compressed air can be obtained in small aerosol cans.
-
Clean the sensors with the brush supplied.
-
Close the machine in the reserve sequence after cleaning.
Adjusting the Pressure of the Infeed Plate
The bank note counter is set up at the factory to draw the bank notes in
properly. If bank notes are no longer drawn in properly, adjust the pressure
exerted by the infeed plate.
- The adjusting screw to alter the pressure exerted by the infeed plate is located at the rear.
- 28 Adjusting screw
- 29 Locking screw
The adjusting screw is secured against being adjusted inadvertently by means of a locking screw.
- Switch the banknote counter off.
- Loosen the locking screw using the screwdriver supplied.
- Adjust the pressure of the infeed plate so that the bank notes can be pushed under the rubber rollers by exerting a little force.
- Tighten the locking screw.
