Extended Bi-Directional Serial Interfaces (EBDS)
The AE2600 and AE2800 support EBDS in Gaming Interface Only. The acceptor will detect
which interface the control system is using by counting the number of data bytes that the
controller is transmitting and will verify the format.
EBDS is used to communicate between an AE2600/AE2800 and a “Controller”. In a typical
application, the Controller is a processor which is telling the bill acceptor when to acceptor
when to accept currency, which denomination(s) (e.g. $1, $5, $10..) are to be accepted,
when to return a bill to the customer, etc. The bill acceptor is telling the Controller what
denominations are being fed into the acceptor, when to issue credit for these bills, when it is
just idling, stacking or returning a bill, etc.
The functionality of the bill acceptor (which denominations to accept, whether to hold a bill in
escrow, etc.) can be changed in real-time by the controller while the system is operational.
There is no need to power down the system and/or manipulate dip switches on the bill
acceptor’s control board.
