3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

BV20 VALIDATOR - THE NEXT GENERATION OF ITL BANK NOTE VALIDATORS

The BV20 Bank Note System is a compact note-validating machine (see figure 1),

suitable for most money machines. It will accept up to 16 different denominations

of notes in the serial control mode. The BV20 Validator leaves the factory preset to

at least one currency so that it is ready for immediate installation.

Figure 1 - The BV20 with vertical bezels

If it is required to change the currency data set this may be done using the PC based

Validator Management software. New currencies and applications are being tested

all the time, please refer to our web site, or contact the factory for information concerning

specific currencies if they are not already included on our approved list. The BV20 is designed

for easy installation in most machines. Interfacing the validator is very simple, with the choice

of the following protocols:

5 MACHINE INTERFACE: PROTOCOLS

5.1 PARALLEL INPUT AND OUTPUT:

To use Parallel Output for 4-note/channel acceptance, the parallel interface must be

programmed into the validator via the Configuration Cards (See Appendix D –

Configuration Cards) or via the ITL BNV Currency Manager program. In parallel mode the

BV20 will issue a 100ms (±3%) active LOW pulse on the relevant vend line. A maximum of

4 channels can be used.

Connections:

Pin Name Type Description

1 Vend 1 Output Channel 1 credit, 100ms (±3%) active LOW pulse.

2 Vend 2 Output Channel 2 credit, 100ms (±3%) active LOW pulse.

3 Vend 3 Output Channel 3 credit, 100ms (±3%) active LOW pulse.

4 Vend 4 Output Channel 4 credit, 100ms (±3%) active LOW pulse.

Table 7 - Parallel and Binary Pin Description

Vend signals: (pins 1 to 4) The four channels have their own individual outputs. If a note is

recognised then the relevant vend line is set low for a period of 100ms ± 3%. Pulses

outside these limits should be rejected as a precaution against false triggering.

Inhibit inputs: (pins 5 – 8) Channels 1 to 4 have their own inhibit input to allow the host

machine to refuse specified notes. To inhibit a channel, the relevant inhibit input must be

held high. To enable a channel, the corresponding inhibit must be latched low so that

notes may be accepted.

BV20 Operations Manual 14

If all four inhibits are high simultaneously then the BV20 will be disabled. In this state the

bezel will not illuminate and if a note is inserted the motor will run in reverse preventing

the insertion of the note. All four inhibits may be connected together to create a 'global'

inhibit. In this way the BV20 may be brought in and out of operation by the host machine.

Busy Output: (Pin 9). This is a general-purpose busy signal. It is active low while the BV20

is in operation.

Escrow Control: (Pin 10) Hold this pin low to enable the single note escrow function.

(Appendix B – ESCROW CONTROL).

It is possible to operate the BV20 in low power mode with the Parallel interface. For

further details please see Chapter 6.4.

5.2 PULSE STREAM OUTPUT

To use Pulse stream output for acceptance of up to 16 note/channel acceptance, The

Pulse interface must be programmed into the validator via the Configuration Cards (See

Appendix D – Configuration Cards) or via the ITL BNV Currency Manager program.

In Pulse mode the BV20 outputs a number of pulses on Vend 1. The number of pulses for

each channel is different and set to default values within the dataset. The number of

pulses and the pulse duration can be modified using the Validator Manager Software. A

maximum of 16 channels can be used.

Table 8 – Pulse Mode Pin Description

BV20 Operations Manual 15

Note: Channels higher than four cannot be individually inhibited, but will be globally inhibited if

inhibits 1 to 4 are inhibited.

It is possible to operate the BV20 in low power mode with the Pulse interface. For

further details please see Chapter 5.4

Credit Hold Function:

If this function is enabled in pulse mode by Configuration Card or ITL BNV Currency

Manager program, the validator will take the note as normal but then wait until the

escrow line is toggled low/high before. It will then give out the number of pulses per

dollar as set on the programming card. After the pulses have been given, the validator

will then wait for another low/high toggle until the full value of credit pulses are given.

Eg. with a setting of 2 pulses per dollar, a five dollar bill will give 2 pulses, 5 times.

A typical use of this option would be for a Pool table with a game price of $1. You could

insert a $5 note and press a button that toggles the escrow line and releases the pool

balls, this would then allow you to play the first game. The Validator holds onto the

remaining credits until the game has finished and the button is pressed again allowing

the next game to begin, this continues until all the credits have been used.

The busy line remains low throughout the whole process and the validator remains

inhibited until all pulses are given.

NOTE:

From Firmware version BV 4.02 release, the pulse width setting function has been

improved.

• The user will be able to set custom values for pulse low, pulse high and pulse per

dollar multiplier in a dataset, which can then be downloaded into the BV20.

• Using the programming card, the user can set pulse mode, but retain the existing

settings by not selecting the options for High pulse, Low pulse or Pulse Per Dollar.

In this way the user will retain any custom settings he has made. So for example,

if the users BV is set to pulse low 5ms, pulse high 45ms with multiplier 3 - using

the programming card with only pulse interface selected will retain these settings.

Any one or all of the settings can be changed to the default values (Pulse high or

low 100ms or 50ms and multiplier 1 to 4) by selecting the card options in the

usual way. On previous firmware versions, the user was required to fill in all the

pulse options on the card.

BV20 Operations Manual 16

5.3 BINARY OUTPUT – BIN

To use Binary mode The Binary interface must be programmed into the validator via the

Configuration Cards (See Appendix D – Configuration Cards) or via the ITL BNV Currency

Manager program.

In Binary mode, the BV20 will issue a binary pattern on vend lines 1 to 4 as shown in Table

9 – Binary Credit Outputs. A maximum of 15 channels can be used.

Vend 1 Vend 2 Vend 3 Vend 4 Credit Channel

Table 9 – Binary Credit Outputs

Connections:

Connections in Binary mode are the same as for Parallel mode.

Note: Channels higher than four cannot be individually inhibited, but will be globally

inhibited if inhibits 1 to 4 are inhibited.

It is possible to operate the BV20 in Low power mode with the Binary interface. For further

details please see Chapter 5.4.

5.4 LOW POWER OPTION

Notes:

• Low Power Mode can ONLY be used with the above Parallel, Pulse and Binary

protocols.

• Low power mode can only be enabled by correctly completing the configuration

cards or via the ITL BNV Currency Manager Program.

• In Low Power Mode the front sensor is checked every 1 second which can lead to

a delay in accepting the note when it is presented.

Configuration button functions are only available during power up before the BV20 goes

into Low Power Mode.

Low Power Mode can be used with all none serial communication protocols to reduce the

power consumption of the BV20 when idle. When the BV20 is in this state the current

consumption is reduced to approximately 1.2mA. The BV20 goes into low power mode

approximately 4 seconds after the validator is powered up and remains in this state until a

note is entered (Time A). Following a note insertion the BV20 returns to Low Power mode

approximately 1 second after the Busy line goes High (After credit is given or note is

rejected). (Time B)

Low Power mode uses 3 control lines: Vend – Pin 1, Inhibit – Pin 5 and Busy – Pin 9

TIMING DIAGRAM EXPLAINATION

When the Validator is enabled the Inhibit Line is Low and the Busy Line is High. This

remains the same until a note is inserted (Time A)

When a note is inserted under the front sensor the BV20 wakes up and the busy line goes

low to indicate that the validator is in use. The busy line remains low during the validating

and stacking process and once the note has been successfully validated and stacked the

vend line goes low to issue the credit.

After the credit is issued the busy line goes high and approximately 1 second after the

busy line goes high (Time B) the BV20 goes back into low power mode.

BV20 Operations Manual

5.5 SERIAL INPUT/OUTPUT – SIO

To use Serial Input/Output mode The SIO interface must be programmed into the

validator via the Configuration Cards (See Appendix D – Configuration Cards) or via the ITL

BNV Currency Manager Program.

Serial Input/Output (SIO) is a simple serial protocol compatible with the same interface on

NV4 to NV10. It is not recommended for use on new designs due to the possibility of noise

effecting the communication. We recommend the use of a serial protocol with error

checking such as SSP. The BV20 does not support the Simple Serial Data Out Only mode

as available on the NV4 and earlier models.
