MDB Device Definition
The MDB protocol allows for two changer devices and for two bill acceptors. This section states
which are used:
CHANGER [AT] <Address>
This specifies that a coin changer is to be found at the specified MDB <Address>.
Normally MDB coin changers are at <Address> 08H
NOTE [ACCEPTOR] [AT] <Address>
BILL [ACCEPTOR] [AT] <Address>
This specifies that a note / bill acceptor is to be found at the specified MDB <Address>.
Normally MDB note / bill acceptors are at <Address> 30H
CASHLESS [ACCEPTOR] [AT] <Address> [IDLE [AMOUNT] <value>]
This specifies that a cashless (card reader) is to be found at the specified MDB <Address>.
Normally MDB cashless devices are at <Address> 10H
The keyword IDLE indicates that level 3 processing should be used if possible. The <Value>
field is present because the API had to present a value. The value used here does not affect
Paylink processing in any way.
C2 [AT] <Address>
CF7000 [AT] <Address>
CF7xxx [AT] <Address>
These are only allowed following a USB connection protocol line and specify that a USB
connected coin changer of the quoted type is set up at the specified MDB <Address>,
normally 08H.
ID003 Protocol
[WITH] ACCEPTOR | RECYCLER
An ID003 communications line can connect to one singe unit. This has to be specified as
either a “standard” ID003 note acceptor or to a recycler that is using the JCM UBA recycler
ID_003 extensions.
(In the file this will typically follow the <Connector> on the same line.)
