The NV9 Spectral makes use of a 16-pin socket connector to interface the NV9S to
the host machine. The 16-pin socket is located within the housing assembly, the
upper housing assembly will need to be opened before accessing the connector. To
access the interface connector, push the release catch and lift the upper housing
assembly.

Caution!
Power must always be connected.

Reliability Data
The below data refers to the Mean Cycles Between Failure (MCBF) and the Mean
Cycles Between Intervention (MCBI). The difference between the two is that a
failure would usually require the unit being replaced. Whereas an intervention would
be an issue that is easily clearable such as a reset or clearing a note path jam.
A cycle is classed as a note or ticket being either accepted or dispensed. For
example; if a unit accepts a note and then dispenses a note as change, it is classed
as two cycles.
NV9 Spectral
MCBF: 200,000 Cycles
MCBI: 100,000 Cycles
It is important to note that when adding a recycler or printer, you are doubling the
number of modules. Thus, the MCBF/MCBI will naturally be halved.

MCBF: 100,000 Cycles
MCBI: 50,000 Cycles

The NV9S range supports multiple currencies and denominations as per the
specifications detailed in the table above. Furthermore polymer and windowed notes
are in use in a number of countries and so are already fully supported on the NV9S
range of validators.

4MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
Compatibility
4.1.1 Hardware Compatibility
4.1.1.1 Machine mounting
The NV9 Spectral may be used as fitting replacement for the following products:
•NV9USB
The NV22 may be used as fitting replacement for the following products:
•NV11
Innovative Technology Ltd. has a policy of continuous product improvement. Due to
design changes older model or product bezels (and cashboxes) may not be
compatible with the NV9 Spectral. However, new product deliveries always include a
bezel (and cashbox) that must be used.
4.1.1.2 Machine interfacing
By design the NV9 Spectral/ NV22 is pin to pin compatible with the NV9/NV11 series
validators.
4.1.1.3 Power Supply
It is vital that the NV9 Spectral is connected to a power supply being able to provide
the required power environment. A weak power supply causes malfunctioning of the
NV9 Spectral such like note rejects or missing credits. If the NV9 Spectral is used as
a fitting replacement for an older model or product it is recommended to check 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 NV9 Spectral.
The NV9 Spectral might have higher power consumption. Refer to section 3.4 for full
power requirement details of the NV9 Spectral.
Caution!
A weak power supply can cause
malfunctioning!

Software Compatibility
4.2.1.1 Interface protocols
When using the NV9 Spectral/ NV22 as a fitting replacement for an older model or
product some events such like credits may be given earlier or later. 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. Contact the machine manufacturer for full compatibility of
the NV9 Spectral.
Caution!
Timing issues may cause missing
events such like credits!
