�� This feature offers a discrete way of charging different prices based on:

• payment method (cash, cash card, or units card)

• the access code programmed on the card, in cases where cards are us

A pricing table in the parameters allows the user to set one price for caseach price level, and separate prices for cash cards and units cards under each of the four access codes at each price level. In standard mode (twolevels) this means two cash prices and 16 card prices. In steering mode (price levels) this means 8 cash prices and 64 card prices. PIN cards don’t use pricing but count the number of vends at each of the price levels. All medata is stored based on access code as well.

The pricing table is shown on page 43.

CHAPTER 1

About the Produc

�� The 55-Raptor Series Vending Access Control Terminal (VAC terminal) imultifunctional credit and debit card reader that controls access to copier machines, microfiche readers, or any other device that can be controlleda relay closure. Customers use pre-encoded magnetic stripe cards with cash, or PIN accounts to pay for products or services. The Vending AccControl Terminal is part of the Raptor series of products from XCP, whicencompasses a full line of vending products.

��

Vending Access Control Terminal products accommodate multiple price tables for up to four different user groups according to card type (Cash oUnits). A separate PIN card accounting system logs the number of vendeach price level. Patrons are charged either for each operation, or accorto the amount of time they access the device (time vending). Prices are deter-mined by the seller.

��

�� #��

The type of cards your reader uses is determined by the model number oVending Access Control Terminal (see the table on page ix). The unit wiaccept Cash and Units debit cards and PIN cards, as well as program cafor administrative use.

��

The reader saves the current value of a card in battery-backed RAM. Whcard fails, an operator can later restore this value.


CHAPTER 1: ABOUT THE PRODUCT��

##�� #��

The Raptor family of Vending Access Control Terminals supports an APcommand set through an on-board port that allows you to access PIN accounts, set parameters, and download meters right from your PC. Although the VAC terminal is designed for copier vending, it also suppormuch of the functionality of the Computer Vending Station product series. The API allows the terminal to communicate with a PC while connected to a copier, and to vend from both simultaneously. This makes it possible to:

• Use the VAC terminal with many of the multifunctional copier devicesavailable today.

• Substitute the VAC terminal for a Computer Vending Station, if needein a pinch.

��$��

In the event of a power failure, a power-saving feature saves all paramete(card type, card value, and escrow), and restores them when power is restored.

%��

The Vending Access Control Terminal offers an extensive capability for tracking vend activity. Meters can be viewed on the display, printed out, uploaded to a PC, or imported into a spreadsheet.

&!��

When a user card is inserted in the reader, the card’s value is recorded in RAM and displayed on screen. As transactions occur, the displayed valupdated, but the value stored on the card’s magnetic stripe is not updateuntil the card is ejected. When the user presses the Eject button, the reader pushes the card out while writing the new value to the card. To prevent ason from expending value on a card, then manually pulling the card out the reader before the value is debited, we write a zero value to the card wit is first inserted. Since the card’s value is recorded as $0.00 until all traactions are complete, anyone attempting remove a card during a vend walaway with a card that has no value.

The Transaction Terminal is a card reader that adds considerably to the pendence of the Vending Access Control Terminal operator. It allows anoperator to use a keypad to add and subtract cash or units from a card’svalue. The Transaction Terminal records and stores all cash transactionallows up to eight different security levels and up to 20 separate operatopasswords.

��

Part Number: 900576-001

An optional tool for setting parameters is the 4-by 4-character, hand-heldkeypad, which is easily plugged into the serial port on the CPU board. Tkeypad can be used with all XCP products equipped with our Raptor-series controller board (with the exception of the Transaction Terminal, which comes with its own keypad).

��

You receive a set of programming cards with each unit you purchase froXCP. You can order additional sets from XCP if you need them.

��

User cards can be bought from XCP either blank or pre-encoded with a code and access code (that match the machine’s license codes), and a vIf you use third-party cards, we are willing to encode them to ensure thathey work with our machines.

Cards that receive a medium-value (VCS) or high-value (VCV–VCW) license must be formatted at the factory. Customers can later re-encode thas necessary.

CHAPTER 2

Vending Interface

!�� Every time a customer makes a selection on a vending device, such as copier, a pulses (signals) are detected by the VAC terminal through an ocal isolator or “opto.” Optos allow the VAC terminal to “see” a particular condition inside the vending device. Based on the customer’s selection, indi-vidual optos are turned on or off. The debit price is determined by the collec-tive state of the optos. The software determines whether there is enoughmoney to cover the vend, and if so, turns on a relay (switch) that enabledevice to make the vend.

��

The VAC terminal connects to the host device via a harness, which pluginto the DB15 connector. The terminal uses either standard or steering pulse detection to intercept signals it receives over that connection.

Configuring the terminal to operate in standard or steering mode requiresetting the jumpers on the Raptor board and enabling the respective mothe software. An illustration of the Raptor board is provided on the next page.

&� �� !� ��

1 Set jumpers JP2 – JP5 on the Raptor board to pins 2 and 3.

2 Enter the Timing Menu and set the Steering parameter to No (see Chter 3 for instructions on how to set parameters.)

" �� The VAC terminal monitors four different pulses from the vending deviceThree of the signals carry information about the selection made by the patron. The other signal is the debit pulse.

1 When the patron inserts a card or cash, three optos (optos 2, 3, and the VAC terminal register the selection conditions in the vending devito determine the vend price.

2 If the value on the card or in escrow is enough to cover the price leveselected, then relay 2 enables the vending device.

3 When a vend is made, a debit pulse is sent from the vending device toVAC terminal. This pulse is registered by opto 1, and the appropriateprice is debited from the card (or cash) or is logged to the customer’s account. When the value on the card or in escrow falls below the selected price level or the patron ejects the card, rela y2 is disabled either more money is inserted or a lower price level is selected.

Think of an opto as a switch that is turned either on or off, depending oninformation it receives from the signal it monitors. The selections made bthe user are registered by three optos in the VAC terminal. The table belshows that, by using every unique on/off combination of optos 2–4, a totaeight price levels is possible.

* Opto 1 registers the debit pulse and does not affect pricing.

" �� In standard mode, the vending device can offer only two price selectionsEach selection transmits its own debit pulse, which is registered in the Vterminal by an opto dedicated to that pulse. Two corresponding relays enthe vending device at the appropriate price level.

��

For this scenario, let’s assume the vending device is a copier and that thprice 2 selection costs more than the price 1 selection.

1 The customer inserts a card into the card reader.

2 The value on the card is compared with both price 1 and price 2.

3 The customer makes a selection and presses the copy button.

4 The incoming debit pulse is detected by the corresponding opto. If thappropriate relay for that price level was enabled (i.e., there was enovalue on the card), the card is debited and the copy is made.

• If a price 1 debit pulse was detected by opto 1, the VAC terminal dits price 1.

• If a price 2 debit pulse was detected by opto 2, the VAC terminal dits price 2.

5 The customer continues making copies. When the value on the card or iescrow falls below a price level, the corresponding relay is disabled, subsequent debit pulses for that selection are ignored. The relays aredisabled if the user ejects the card.

�� Time vend is active only in standard mode; steering mode does not suppthis feature. Time vend operates from cash, Cash cards, Units cards, andcards.

1 Set the reader and controller board to operate in standard mode (seeinstructions on page 7).

2 Make sure all Timing Menu parameters are set correctly (directions fsetting these parameters can be found on page 39).

3 Set the Time Vend and Time Vend Delay parameters (see page 37).

!�" �� "��

Time vend operates in auto-debit mode, meaning that when each time-vperiod runs out, relay 2 remains enabled, and a new time-vend period amatically starts. The cycle continues until the value left on the card or in escrow falls below the vend price, at which time relay 2 is disabled. The unit will beep as the last session begins, warning the user to wind things up.When using a PIN card, the unit will beep at the start of the final sessionwhen the Max Vend limit has been reached (see page 28).

The no activity timer is disabled during the time vend sessions. If the timvend session terminates because the card value falls below the vend prthe card is not ejected. In this case, the no activity timer will be re-enabled.

Once a time-vend session has started, it can be stopped or interrupted before the time purchased runs out.

&� �� (�� (�� )�� #��

After the customer inserts a card or cash, the time vend delay gives the device time to start without taking time away from the time-vend period pchased. It is possible to start the time vend delay and eject the card or cbefore the completion of the countdown without a debit taking place. The time vend delay applies only to the first time period (not in subsequent adebits).

&� �*��

Press Eject to remove the card or press the coin return to recover unuseescrow. Relay 2 will disable the device, but the time-vend period purchaand already in progress will continue to count down. If another patron insa card, relay 2 will re-enable and the current time-vend period will run out (allowing that patron some free vending time). Auto-debit will then resumand the cycle will continue until the value of the new card falls below the vend price. In this case, time vend delay will not be activated.

&� #��

Optos 1 and 2 are still active during time-vend mode; if they receive debit pulses from the vending device during a time-vend session, they will peform a debit.

CHAPTER 3

Setting Parameter

�� #�� A set of programming parameters is available to customize the operationthe Vending Access Control Terminal. This chapter describes several meods you can use to set parameters on your machine:

• Expansion board (page 16)

• Hand-held keypad (page 17)

• PC (page 19)

��

Parameters are grouped into four menus: PIN Menu, Parameters Menu,ing Menu, and Price Menu. When you enter program mode, you’re presewith the four menus, and are given the option of skipping over the menuyou’re not interested in. This makes it easier for you to locate specific parameter(s) quickly.

3 Alter the value of the parameters in the following ways.

• To increase the current parameter setting, press SW1; to decreaspress SW2.

• To set a parameter to its lowest value, press both buttons simultaneously; now press SW2 to roll back to the highest value allowed

• To set a parameter to its highest value, first set it to the lowest va(see above), then press SW2. This will roll the parameter back to thhighest value.

�� %� ��

A convenient way to set parameters is with the optional keypad availablfrom XCP (see page 4). Unlike the push-button method, this tool allows to enter numbers directly, backtrack to a previously displayed parameter,exit out of program mode at any time. The keypad also allows you to peform PIN maintenance.

1 Check the card reader and remove any card from the unit. Check for andremove any remaining escrow before proceeding.

2 Plug the keypad into the DB9 jack on the rear of the CPU board.

• If the keypad is enabled, the unit will automatically enter programmode.

• If an error message informs you that the keypad is locked, insert tRead Any card and press the Eject button when the display promyou to. Once the keypad is enabled, exit this menu by flipping thecard over and re-inserting it. Now unplug the keypad and plug it in again to enter program mode.

3 Step through the parameters using the keys, as described in the tablbelow, to change and save values.

• The first parameter you’ll see is Keypad. Set this parameter to Noyou prefer to leave the keypad port locked when the machine is inservice. This security feature is meant to prevent unauthorized access to the parameters. It will not take effect until you exit program mod

4 If you have stepped through all the available parameters, the displayread: Menu End . If you do not terminate program mode (by pressing Enter), the unit will do so automatically if doesn’t detect activity for three minutes. All changes are saved in either case.

Every time the PIN card is used, the VAterminal records the number of vends made to that account by incremena counter. There is an internal counter for each price level. You cannot da PIN card.

��

A PIN account is activated in the terminal’s memory the first time the PIcard is inserted in the reader.

��

The maximum number of vends a customer can make with a PIN card isprogrammable parameter; the default is 65,535 for all price levels combinWhen the maximum number is reached, the counter (meter) will not roll over; instead, a message will be flashed momentarily and vending will be terminated. The card will be ejected and the customer will not be able tothat account until the meter is cleared.

You can find out how to set vend limits on PIN cards by reading “Set MaVends (1 – 3)” on page 28.

• Set the maximum number of vends for three groups of PIN accounts

• Create and delete PIN accounts.

• View and edit the locked status and price meters of specified PIN accounts.

The parameters and meters available for PIN setup and maintenance ardescribed below.

The Read Any program card allows you to print PIN meters and write thto an ASCII file. See “Printing PIN account information” on page 31 and“Writing PIN account data to a file” on page 31 for more information on these functions.

You can limit the vending activity of an individual account holder by manipulating the price meter for an unused price level.

1 If you’ve set PIN lockout ranges (see “Set Max Vends (1 – 3)” on pag28), check the Max Vends limit for the range this particular account fainto. For this example, we’ll assume the limit is 1000.

2 Decide how many vends you will allow on this PIN account; let’s use100. Subtract this number from the Max Vends value. The result is 90

3 Now set the unused price meter to 900.

Subsequent vends made at each price level are recorded in the price mAll price meters — including the “unused” one — are added together ancompared against Max Vends. After only 100 vends, the limit will be reached. The customer is charged only for vends made at the valid price lev-els.

Formatting User Card

�� '�� User cards can be encoded with a value using the Cash or Units progracards you received with your unit. Each program card contains a VC code, access code, and value, all of which are encoded on the user cards durprogramming. You’ll need one Cash/Units program card for each accesscode on your unit — up to four sets.

Note: You have the option of buying conveniently pre-formatted user cafrom XCP. For optional products, see page 4.

&� �� +

1 Insert a Cash or Units program card.

The unit will enter program mode. You can back out of this operationany time (see below).

• If you’ve inserted a Cash program card, the first message displayeProg Amount : $xx.xx , where xx.xx is the cash value encoded onthe program card.

• If you’ve inserted a Units program card, the message reads Prog

Amt: xxxx , where xxxx is the number of units encoded on the pro-gram card.

2 Increase the value to be encoded on a user card by pressing the Ejeton repeatedly until the desired value is displayed. You must start thecycle over again to decrease the value.

3 Insert the user card that you want to program. The new card will nowautomatically encoded with the newly selected value, the VC code, access code, and the card type (cash or units) of the program card yjust removed.

The unit displays the value being programmed on the left of the dispand the number of cards successfully encoded on the right side of thdisplay. The unit keeps track only of cards encoded in the current programming session.

For example: $1.00 #Cards: 50 shows that 50 cards have been encoded with a value of $1.00.

4 To finish programming user cards, press the Eject button.

(Yes/No) Set this parameter to Yes to display the dollar sign next to curreparameters; set it to No to disable the dollar sign.

��

(0–2.55) Used when adding value to a Units card. This is the cost in dollars for each unit encoded on a card. For example, if the cost per unit is $.10,and a patron inserts a Units card and one dollar, 10 units are added to the card.

(9600 or 19200) Rate of serial communications transmission between thehost PC and the unit, and the keypad and the unit. The keypad automatdetects the unit’s baud rate and adjusts itself. If the baud rate is changed viathe keypad, it takes effect only after program mode is terminated. Softwrunning on the host PC might set this parameter automatically to achievoptimal performance.

��

(0 – 60:00) Allows you to set the amount of time for one time-vend period. Setting this parameter to zero disables time vending. Time vend works oin standard mode.

(0 – 5:00) This parameter is visible only if Time Vend is set to somethingother than zero. This delay period starts just after a card has been inserand relay 2 enabled, but before the money is debited from the card or escThe purpose is to give the vend device time to start without taking time afrom the time-vend period purchased.

��

(0–30:00) This is the amount of time in minutes and seconds that the Vening Access Control Terminal will wait when a patron has left either a cardescrow in the unit. Keep in mind that this feature is included to prevent patrons from walking away without their cards and to keep the unit fromreverting to the idle state too quickly.

• If there is escrow alone in the unit, a timer will sound 15, 10, and 5 sonds before the No Activity timer expires. Then the fate of that escrowdependent on the state of No Activity Payout (see below).

(Yes/No) This parameter determines whether the unit can be used for reing user cards.

• Set it to Yes to use the unit as a revalue station, permitting patrons torevalue their cards via the bill or coin acceptors.

• Set it to No to prevent the user from revaluing a card. The coin and bill acceptors are disabled if a card is inserted; or the card transport is dabled if cash has been deposited first.

For example, assuming this value is set at $1, if a patron inserts a Cashand presses the coin return, $1 is dispensed in cash and that amount isremoved from the card’s value. The unit then ejects the card. If the value on the card is less than the $1 the patron requested, the unit dispenses the remaining value on the card, reducing its value to $.00.

(0-9999) Unique number used to identify individual Vending Access ContrTerminal units. When the unit is configured at the factory, this parameteset to zero. You should assign each machine at your site a unique numbThis number is displayed at boot-up and printed at the top of a meter priout and ASCII file.

�� /��

This is the delay between lines of text sent to the printer. Since the printport does not use handshaking, it is necessary to put a delay at the end of each line of text sent to the printer to allow it to write the text before receing the next line. The default setting is 175, which translates into a 1.1-sec-ond delay between each line. If this setting is too low, the resulting output will show lines running together. For example, if line 1 were to read “Metfor Machine:” and line 2 were to read “Cards Sold:” the resulting output might look like “Meters For Cards Sold.”

Appendix D contains information on attaching a portable printer.

�� )��

(0 – 3) This parameter turns on one, two, or three custom messages, whare displayed while the terminal is in the idle state (i.e., it is not processiany transactions).

• You need to download custom messages over the serial port using XAPI protocol (call XCP for details).

• Set this parameter to 0 for the standard message to appear.

(0-255) Access codes are a discreet way of differentiating between user types. For example, in a university environment students, teachers, andwalk-in customers could all have different access codes. The Vending Access Control Terminal allows up to four access codes.

Access codes are assigned by XCP and set at the factory. In most casesshould not have to be changed. If you must change an access code, you can do so using your Cash or Units program cards (see “Setting the unit’s accodes” on page 10). The access code is read from the card and assignethe Vending Access Control Terminal. If you want to define more than ontype of access, you’ll need more than one set of program cards, each encoded with a different access code.

(Yes/No) Timing parameters are set to match the timing of the host venddevice. The values should be published in the host product’s documenta

• Set this selection to Yes to enter the timing menu.

• Set the parameter to No to skip the timing parameters.

• Sense time 1: This parameter applies to opto 1, which registers the price 1 pulse in standard mode and the debit pulse in steering mode.

• Sense time 2: This parameter applies to opto 2, which registers the price 2 pulse, in standard mode only.

Setting the parameter to zero really sets it to 5 milliseconds, which might be enough time to flush out any noise. If Sense Time is set too short, the vedevice could interpret noise as a debit pulse; if it is set too long, the machine might dispense free copies.

(00.000 – 30.000) This parameter is set in 50-millisecond increments. Thisthe length of time, in seconds, after a valid pulse when any further pulses registered by that opto are ignored. Pulses on the other opto in standardmode will be recognized if still active after blind time expires.

• Blind time 1: This parameter applies to opto 1, which monitors the pri1 pulse in standard mode and the debit pulse in steering mode.

• Blind time 2: This parameter applies to opto2, which monitors the pri2 pulse, in standard mode only.

Blind Time masks unwanted pulses (i.e., double pulses or “glitches”). If tparameter is set too short, double debits could occur, but if set too long, vends could be missed.

'�� /�� *+,4.

(00.000 – 30.000) This parameter is set in 50-millisecond increments. TheReset Delay is the length of time, in seconds, that the relays stay energized after the job is terminated (i.e., the patron pushes the Eject button or thedor escrow value falls below the vend price). If escrow falls below the veprice, Reset Delay does not occur until after Sense Time has expired.

• Reset Delay 1: This parameter applies to opto 1, which registers the price 1 pulse in standard mode and the debit pulse in steering mode.

• Reset Delay 2: This parameter applies to opto 2, which registers the price 2 pulse, in standard mode only.

The host device must be kept on long enough for the job to complete (efor the paper to get through the copier without jamming), but not so long another job starts (and copies are dispensed for free).

�� 5�� *+,4.

(Yes/No) Set this parameter to Yes for trailing edge debiting and to No foleading edge debiting.

corresponding opto to go inactive. It waits for an indefinite length of time this to occur. After the opto returns to inactive, the corresponding price idebited.

,�� (��

With leading-edge debiting, the debit occurs right after the Sense Time dis satisfied. Today’s high-speed copiers generally work best with this typdebiting because their pulse lengths occur in very rapid succession. The Sense Time and Blind Time can be completed soon after the copier vennal returns inactive, leaving the system ready for another pulse. If the Se

Time count is satisfied, the debit occurs as soon as the Sense Time delasatisfied.

• If Eject Delay is set too short, the card could be ejected while the vending device is still running, resulting in free copies being dispensed.

• If it is set too long, customers might become irritated, waiting for thecards to be ejected.

F Enter bypass mode with the bypass key switch. Deposit the change aturn off the key switch. Escrow will be cleared.

F Deposit the coins and use one of the methods described below in Clear-ing escrow to remove the escrow.

�� In the event that unwanted escrow is left on the LCD, it is possible to remit without impacting the meters. This can be done in a number of ways.

F If the unit has a card reader, simply insert a program card; the escrowwill be removed when the card is ejected.

F If this product does not contain a card reader, you can remove escroentering program mode from the push buttons or by entering bypass mode. Changing parameter values on page 7 describes how to perform these functions.

2 Insert a NEW card (not the failed one) into the transport.

The card will be recharged with the value displayed. This amount, alowith the access code and card type, are then erased from the card reader’s memory. The card is ejected automatically.

Note: The Vending Access Control Terminal saves only one write failurevalue at a time. If a second card is inserted (and fails) before the value offirst card has been determined, the card reader will report only the value of the second card.

APPENDIX C

Read-Write HeadMaintenance

�� *�� We recommend that the read-write device be serviced on a regular basiDepending on usage, service should be done every three to six monthsWhen kept clean and properly adjusted, the read-write head will last approimately three to six years, depending on usage.

There are two methods used in cleaning the read-write head. The method you choose will depend on how dirty the unit is.

)��

Use a cleaning card to clean readers that are not extremely dirty. These are available in kits supplied by various manufacturers. When using a cleing card, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Points to remember while using cleaning card kits:

F The cleaning card should not be used more than once.

F Most cleaning cards come with a cloth-like surface on one side, whicyou’ll run across the head surface. To clean the drive tires, orient the so the cloth side runs across the drive tires and hold the card stationafor a few seconds, letting the motor run. This will remove most of the dand oil that builds up on the drive tires during normal usage.

�%��% ��

If the unit is extremely dirty or has not been serviced in the last six monthmore thorough cleaning should be done to ensure reliable operation.

#$%&'&() All maintenance should be done with the unit unplugged.

1 Unplug the reader and remove it from the housing. Place the reader upside down on the work surface to expose the bottom. Disconnect tribbon cable (and buzzer harness, if applicable) from the side board of the reader.

2 Disconnect the yellow head wires from the read/write head.

3 Remove the two #4 nylon nuts, two nylon shoulder washers, and twocompression springs from the head mounting posts. If applicable, disnect the extension spring from the rear of the head holder. Lift the heand holder off the mounting post. Ensure that the brown shoulder waers remain on the post.

4 Clean the head surface thoroughly with a paper towel and a non-abracleaner such as isopropyl alcohol. Be sure to remove all dirt and oil before re-installing it into the reader.

5 If applicable, connect the extension spring to the rear of the head ho

6 Place the head assembly onto the mounting posts. Make sure the heassembly is seated properly on the shoulder washers, with the collarcoming up through the tabs of the assembly. Install the coil springs onposts, then place the nylon washers on the posts with the collar downit goes into the coil springs. Install the nylon nuts on the posts and tighso that the coil springs are compressed, but do not let the shoulder washers touch.

7 Place a card into the card bed and watch the head rise up on the cardhead should be level. If not, tighten or loosen the corresponding nylonut to make the head level.

8 Remove the card and verify that the head doesn’t come in contact wthe drive tire. The head should be a paper width away from the drive

9 Clean the drive tire with alcohol and a lint-free cloth.
