ST1 Operations Manual Rev 2.0
2.3.5 ST1 in Top Entry Configuration
2.3.6 Interface Cable Assembly
The GBA ST1 is fitted with a 20 pin interface connector. All interfaces, with the exception of
NAMA MDB, utilise this connector for communication to a host machine. For further details
relating to interface and connection information, please refer to section 8.0 – Electrical
Connections.
2.3.7 Bar-coded Coupon Sensor
The ST1 can be fitted with a sensor for detecting and reading the barcodes on a printed coupon.
The sensor uses green light, so it can readily read thermally printed coupons. The sensor can only
scan one face of the coupon, so the coupons must be inserted with the barcode facing upwards
for the down-stacker arrangement, and facing downwards for the up-stacker.
The bar-coded coupons should be a similar size to the wider notes that the validator handles.
At present, only the ccTalk and GBA BSCP protocols provide the host with commands to read back
the content of the barcode as a text string.
Further details on the barcode reading function, including bar code printing sizes and the codes
read, are available from your regional Sales Office.
