Inhibit Control
The Inhibits can be used to either enable or disable the acceptance of those banknotes programmed on channels 1,
2, 3 and 4. The Inhibits are internally held high and must be set to low (GND) to enable banknote acceptance. If no
Inhibit is set to low (GND) the Master Inhibit is set and the BV30 is disabled.
Escrow Control
The BV30 has a single note escrow facility. This allows the BV30 to hold onto the note once validated, and then only
stack the note into a cashbox when the host machine confirms that the Vend operation has been completed. Refer
toEscrow Controlfor further details.
Busy Control
This is a general-purpose busy signal. It is active low (pin 9) while the BV30 is in operation.
Low Power Mode
The Low Power Mode can be used to reduce the power consumption of the BV30 when idle. When the Low Power
Mode option is set, the BV30 goes into the Low Power Mode after about 6 seconds after the BV30 is powered up and
remains in this state until a note is entered. Following a note insertion, the BV30 returns to Low Power Mode
approximately 1 second after a credit is given or note is rejected. Please refer toLow Power Mode Timing Diagram
for further details.
InLow Power Modethe front sensor is checked every second which can lead to a delay in accepting the
note when it is presented!
