5.3 Interfaces
For details of the USB PC and power interfaces [Fig. 8/1, 2] please refer to Chap. "9.3 Interfaces", p. 42.
5.4 On-off switch
The coin recycler is switched on and off using the on-off (power) switch [Fig. 8/3] on the rear of
the device. When switching on the CLS, the device is ready for initialization and operation (upper
illumination [Fig. 8/4] is green for two seconds). Following the initialization process and self test
activated by the customer's control software, the green illumination [Fig. 8/4] (now steadily on)
indicates coins may be deposited and change can be paid out. To entirely disconnect the device
from supply, the switch must be set to its lower position to OFF.

Warning! Coin return tray is full. Stop inserting
coins till return tray has been emptied
Bottom Coin payout unit is transporting coins to the coin
return tray
To remedy the cause of a malfunction please refer to Chap. "10.1 Quick troubleshooting using status illumina-
tion", p. 46.
5.6 Coin input funnel
If the top illumination [Fig. 9/1] is green, one or more coins can be dropped into the coin input
funnel [Fig. 10/1]. Sensors in the funnel detect the coins and start the CLS centrifuge in the coin
acceptance unit. The top illumination is now flashing green.
Do not drop more than 50 €1-sized coins at once in order that all coins can be
accepted properly and do not have to be rejected or cause a coin jam, which
in the worst case can damage the CLS.
To assure that no foreign objects reach the coin path the coin input funnel has holes allowing foreign
particles to fall in the dust tray [Fig. 10/1]. Other larger objects are separated from the coins in the
acceptance unit and directed to the coin return tray [Fig. 10/2].

CLS Advance Design & Function
5.7 Centrifuge & coin transport belt
The centrifugal [Fig. 11/1] force arranges the dropped coins one after another on the turning
conveyor belt [Fig. 11/2] so that their properties can be checked.
5.8 Coin validator
In the coin validator [Fig. 11/3] the coins pass sensors checking the coins. There they generate
individual measurement values. Due to the special design and arrangement of these sensors, each
coin is checked for its material properties and dimensions (cf. Chap. "5.15 Coin path & Sensor monitoring",
p. 19). A so-called acceptance band, which consists of an upper limit value and a lower limit
value, is stored for each coin denomination programmed to ensure that the CLS knows whether to
accept a coin or not. If the measured values of a coin are within the acceptance band, the coin is
accepted for sale, but if the measured values exceed the acceptance band, the coin will be rejected.
5.9 Coin sorting spiral
Depending on their diameters the coin sorting spiral's [Fig. 11/4] apertures route all coins accepted
into the appropriate coin hoppers [Fig. 12/1].
5.10 Coin payout unit
The coin hoppers [Fig. 12/1] in the payout unit collect one coin denomination each. For each
denomination programmed in the CLS there is one hopper available. In case of a euro program-
ming, for instance, the payout unit is equipped with eight coin hoppers. Currencies with fewer coin
denominations are paid out using double or triple hoppers [Fig. 12/1] to ensure highest possible
payout capacity. In order that coins are paid out correctly and according to the CLS coin configu-
ration, each hopper has a fixed position. Coin hoppers and hopper positions are color-coded to
ensure the hopper positions do not get mixed up.
Driven by a motor the payout disc [Fig. 12/2] of a hopper turns as long as the correct number of a
coin is released. For highest possible payout speed four coin hoppers can be controlled simultane-
ously. All coins released fall onto the return belt [Fig. 12/3] transporting the coins to the return
tray [Fig. 12/4], the lower illumination [Fig. 12/5] is green. The coin return tray can be lifted up to
install a coin transfer cassette or other filling mechanisms for coin bags when emptying the hoppers.
If the hopper sensors detect coin jamming, the payout disc starts turning the other way round
trying to free the stuck coins.
If the coin counter of a hopper has reached its full level, the CLS issues a service
message claiming an emptying cycle for this hopper. If the maximum level is
reached, the CLS stops operating (cf. Chap. "5.10.1 Payout configuration & capacity", p. 16).
If too many coins have to be paid out and directed to the coin return tray and the

tray is full of coins, the upper status illumination will flash red. No further coin
should be inserted until the coin return tray has been emptied.
5.10.1 Payout configuration & capacity
The payout conguration and capacity depends on the currency and coin denomi-
nations programmed in the system. The gure on the right [Fig. 13]takes the euro
currency as an example for payout conguration and capacity. For all other curren-
cies please refer to the overview "CLS Payout Conguration" available on request.
For easy service work as the refilling of coin hoppers we recommend you to
provide the CLS installation site with an overview of the hopper-coin assignment
(2c coins in red-marked hopper, 10c coins in yellow-marked hopper, 5c coins in
orange hopper for instance.

5.10.2 Fast Payout
The CLS is equipped with a return chute [Fig. 14]so the customer receives their change quicker.
The return chute bypasses the return belt [Fig. 12/3] and guides the dropped coins to be returned
into the coin return tray directly as soon as the CLS valued enough credit. Moreover the coin hop-
pers start payout simultaneously with the acceptance of the last coins.

CLS Advance Design & Function
Fig. 15: Detail: Rejector pin, coin return conveyor and tray
5.11 Coin rejector pin
Coins with measured values beyond the programmed acceptance band are extracted by means of
the coin rejector pin [Fig. 15/1] coming up and deflecting these coins to the return belt [Fig. 15/2]
transporting them to the coin return tray [Fig. 15/3].
If too many coins have to be rejected and directed to the coin return tray and the
tray is full of coins, the upper status illumination will flash red. No further coin
should be inserted until the coin return tray has been emptied.
5.12 Acceptance, sorting & payout control
To ensure that accepted coins actually arrive in the coin hoppers and that acceptance
has not been tampered with, sensors check whether the inserted coins pass unhin-
dered through the CLS and into the coin hoppers or coin return tray (cf. Chap. "5.15 Coin
path & Sensor monitoring", p. 19). Only when the coins have passed these checking devices,
either coin acceptance and payout or, in case of tampering or malfunction, an error
code is transmitted to the control unit.

5.13 Top key lock, push-button & pull handle
To keep your cash under lock and key the CLS lid is closed in normal operation. In
case of jamming the authorized attendant possessing the key may open the CLS
lid by unlocking the top key lock [Fig. 16/1], holding the push-button [Fig. 16/2] down
and open the lid with the pull handle [Fig. 16/3].
There will be models available without the top key lock.

5.14 Bottom key lock & pull handle
In case of maintenance the payout unit may be opened by unlocking the bottom key
lock [Fig. 17/1] and open the CLS with the pull handle [Fig. 17/2].
Do not unlock the lid or press the push-button to open the lid when the payout
unit is open. This unlatches the coin acceptance unit and may damage the
device or result in injuries.
