Cash Drawer Activation
Two cash drawers may be driven from this port. Driving voltage of the solenoid is DC+12V.
Unlike previous models, the 3730 motherboard access via a super I/O chip instead of a direct I/O
port. A test program and source code can be found on the CD in \Utility\Cash drawer. This test
program is for all Windows OS. To use the source code, please study the readme.txt file in the
same location.
Hardware logic is as follows.
To Open cash drawer number 1….
O 281 10 ; It will power the cash drawer number 1 solenoid ON.
Wait 200 milliseconds
O 281 ef ; It removes the power from the cash drawer solenoid.

O 281 20 ; It will power the cash drawer number 2 solenoid ON.
Wait 250 milliseconds
O 281 df ; It removes the power from the cash drawer solenoid.

If your application requires 2 cash drawers and you need to know if one of the drawers are open
then it will be necessary to link the “SW+” and “SW-“ of both cash drawers together. You will also
need to modify both cash drawer switch wiring.
You will need a soldering iron for this.
Disassemble the cash drawers and move the Red wire that is attached to the “N.O.” (Normally
Open) terminal onto the “N.C.” (Normally Closed) terminal. See the Cash Drawer RJ11 connector
details in this manual for pin assignments.
This will provide an “OR” type function.
e.g. either Cash Drawer 1 is open “OR” Cash Drawer 2 is open.
