6.2.1 PROTOCOL A (EXECUTIVE)
“Also known as Executive, this protocol was developed by Mars Electronics International in the
early 1980's to interface peripherals to electronically controlled vending machines. The definitive
Protocol A specification is produced by Mars Electronics International.”
Support for the MDB comes standard with the Payter terminal in case the Vending Machine only
supports the Executive protocol an additional converter (Payter VendBox) is required which can
be placed in between the terminal and the Vending Machine.

6.2.2 Vendbox
The Vendbox acts as a bridge between the Executive vending protocol, and the MDB protocol,
and is designed to be used in combination with a Payter contactless terminal. When connected
to an Executive vending machine, the Vendbox acts as the Executive Master and delegate
commands to the Vending Machine Controller (VMC). It will also act as MDB VMC and send vend
requests to the MDB cashless device connected to the MDB bus.
For detailed specifications and installation instructions, please refer to the Vendbox manual.
6.2.3 Applicable settings
The terminal will be configured as a regular MDB device, see previous chapter.
