4.1.1.3 Power Supply
It is vital that the BV50 is connected to a power supply being able to provide the
required power environment. A weak power supply causes malfunctioning of the
BV50 such like note rejects or missing credits. If the BV50 is used as a fitting
replacement for an older model or product we recommend checking the power
supply specifications of the machine. The power supply of the machine might be
designed for the older model or product but not suitable for the BV50. The BV50
might have higher power consumption. Refer to 3.4 for full power requirement
details of the BV50.

malfunctioning!
4.1.2 Software Compatibility
4.1.2.1 Interface Protocols
When using the BV50 as a fitting replacement for an older model or product some
events such like credits may be given earlier. This is due to improved firmware
routines and faster motors being used. This may cause missing events such like
credits in those host machines where timeouts are defined for the older model or
product. Please contact the machine manufacturer for full compatibility of the BV50.
Timing issues may cause missing
events such like credits!
4.1.2.2 Re-programming
For re-programming the BV50 always use the latest version of Validator Manager
available for download on our website. Older versions may not fully support the
product. All software from Innovative Technology Ltd is free of charge and can be
downloaded from the website: www.innovative-
technology.com/support/securedownload once registered and logged in. If you are
not registered, please create an account via the Create an account form. A
confirmation email will be sent to the registered email address once all contact
details have been successfully submitted. As of June 2016 the ASIIC chip used in the
BV50 was made obsolete by the manufacturer. As such a new board revision with a
different processor was released. This resulted in a different hardware revision and
firmware version, please see below:
The BV50 with the ST chipset will be referenced in the dataset name (see below in
