When not using the unit for a long time, remove the power plug from the electric outlet.

Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the unit.
This equipment is meant to be operated in an indoor environment with proper ventilation.
Do not place near direct sunlight, heat sources, or air conditioners.
This equipment should only be operated with the power cord supplied and the type of power source indicated in this User Guide. If you are not sure of the type of power supply in your location, consult your vendor or local power company.
To avoid the risk of fire or electric shock, never push objects into the equipment through the case slots or openings since they may touch dangerous voltage points or shortcut parts. Do not disassemble the unit.
Never spill liquids of any kind on the equipment.
Unplug this equipment from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
- When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed*
- If liquid has been spilled into the unit or it has been exposed to rain or water*

Operation

Basic Operation

Connect the power cable to the detector and then connect the adapter to the power outlet. When turning on the detector, it will proceed with a self-check routine that lasts 2 seconds. The display will light the green indicator , which means the equipment is ready to check the bills.
Insert the bill to be checked in any direction. When a bill is inserted into the detector’s feeding channel, an optical sensor located in this compartment allows the detector to automatically begin the verification process. The bill will be transported inside the unit and analyzed immediately.
If the bill is genuine, the green indicator will light up and sound a single warning beep.
If the bill is suspicious, the red indicator will light up and sound two warning beeps.

Suspicious Bill Warning

This equipment checks the Magnetic (MG), Infrared (IR), Watermark (WM), Ultraviolet (UV), and other characteristics of the bills analyzed. If any of these security features do not pass the authentication of the bill, a red indicator will display, and two beep notifications sound. If a bill is detected as suspicious, we recommend passing the bill at least three more times in different positions. Bills can be rejected due to different reasons, such as:

Bills are too crumpled
Bills are very stained or dirty
Ripped bills
Wet bills
Bills stuck with adhesive tape or stapled

Bill Positioning

This equipment has the ability to verify the authenticity of bills in any of four positions.
For correct verification, the bill must be introduced into the feeding channel straight and well-aligned to the left edge, as shown in Figures “A” and “B”.
Avoid introducing the bill into the feeding channel separated from the left side and/or at an angle, as shown in Figure “C”.

Solutions to Operational Problems

Preventive Measures

For optimal operation of the detector, take into account the following:

Avoid direct exposure to powerful sources of light as well as magnetic interference (ex. microwave, cell phone, or WiFi devices), which will affect the sensors of the detector.
Keep the sensors clean.
Keep the equipment off when it is not being used for a long period of time.
Check the status of the bills and avoid processing:
- Bills with clips, adhesive tape, or other glue
- Broken or badly damaged bills
- Bills affected by chemical agents of any kind

Maintenance

CAUTION: Before performing any cleaning process, turn off the equipment and unplug it. Please note that problems or defects caused by lack of maintenance are not covered under the warranty.

a) Cleaning of optical sensors
It is important to periodically clean the optical sensors to prevent particles of paper or dust from adhering to them.
b) Internal cleaning of the unit
It is necessary to clean the interior of the equipment once a month or more frequently depending on use. Turn off and unplug the detector before proceeding with this operation. Use compressed air to remove dust from the inside. Use a Cleaning Card to remove dust particles adhering to the magnetic heads.
c) Additional recommendations
The equipment needs to be placed in a clean, dust-free environment.

Jamming

If any bill or other object accidentally jams inside the detector:

Turn off the detector immediately.
Carefully proceed to remove the bill or object causing the problem.
Turn on the detector again and verify it is working at an optimum level.

To avoid jamming, please:

Ensure there are no foreign objects that could accidentally fall into the equipment (clip, tape, etc.)
To avoid jamming the bills, position them correctly in the feeding channel.
Make sure the bill does not have an adhesive tape.
The bill cannot be very wrinkled or torn.

Cleaning of Magnetic Heads

Turn on the detector and insert a magnetic head cleaning card through the detection channel as if you were going to check a regular bill.
Pass the cleaning card several times to help remove dust that is adhering to the surface of the magnetic heads. Wait about two minutes before proceeding to check bills again.

IR Sensor Calibration

If the detector is rejecting an unusual amount of bills, the equipment may need to have the sensors calibrated.

Use conventional 75g office paper to print and cut the D470 IR Calibration template to perform the calibration. Download the template from www.accubanker.com/pages/support/D470.
Turn on the unit.
Pass the paper as if to scan a bill.
Place the paper all the way to the left edge of the equipment to activate the feeding motor, but do not let the paper touch the feeding belts. Keep the motor sensor activated for a few seconds until the motor stops and emits a four-beep warning, then remove the paper. (Figure 1)
Insert the paper into the detection channel this time as if scanning a bill, the unit will begin flashing both indicators intermittently, keep the paper inside for a few seconds while calibrating the IR sensors. (Figure 2)
After the calibration is complete, the unit will give a two-beep warning and turn off the red indicator.
Turn off the detector and remove the paper

Software Updates

Steps to perform software update:

Copy the programming software to a mini SD card.
Turn off the detector.
Insert the mini SD card into the update port at the back of the unit as the image shown.
Turn on the detector. The two LED indicators in the display will flash intermittently during the programming process.
Wait approximately 30 seconds until the detector finishes the update.
The red indicator will turn off to show that the new software installation is complete.
Turn off the detector and remove the SD card.
Turn on the detector and check the update.
