ink. The given mode is distinguished by a periodical switching over of the
angle of incidence of the top white light to the banknote. Due to this, the
banknote security mark printed in the variable color ink alternately changes
its color. The color of the marks shall change within the limits specified in de-
scription of the banknote security features. If a mark on the banknote does
not change its color in compliance with the description, the banknote may
be counterfeited, that‘s why the other authenticity marks need verification .
Visibility of the mark shall change on banknotes of some currencies, for ex-
ample, on euro banknotes. Next pressing of the DL key switches off the
white illumination source.
CONTROL WITH VERIFYING IN WHITE TRANSMITTED LIGHT AND
IR TRANSMITTED LIGHT
Place a banknote or a document on the viewing table. Press the DL key () to
switch on the bottom illumination source (the “Bottom White + IR” message
will be displayed). The source inside the viewing table is emitted
simultaneously white light and transmitted IR light;
meanwhile the top source of IR light is switched off. The mode is good for
verification of the watermarks and imprinted metalized stripes with drawing,
micro perforations etc. The screen shows the image obtained at its
transmission by IR-rays. It makes possible to examine watermarks and
markings on the metalized stripes with better contrast;
this mode is good for Euro banknotes control. The best way of micro
perforation control is 10x zoom mode. The authentic holes of micro
perforations are located with a constant pitch, have a round form and the same
size; there is not observed any darkening of paper or its thickening at their
edges.
SIZE CONTROL
To check the dimensions of the banknotes and the accuracy of the sepa-
rate marks located on them, use the control scale applied on a matt glass
of the viewing table.
