GETTING STARTED
2.
2.1 Powering Up
Ensure the hopper and stacker are empty. Then, attach the provided power cable to
the power inlet on the back of the machine. Make sure to plug the power cable into a
three-prong outlet and turn on the power switch located on the back of the machine .
The unit will load and conduct a self-checking. When the home screen is displayed the
machine is ready to operate.
2.2 Loading the Hopper
In order to avoid jams and ensure proper operating speed of the machine, it is important
to correctly load the hopper. Bills should be placed in a neat stack prior to being placed
into the hopper.
Avoid counting bills that are wet, excessively dirty, spoiled, folded, curled or with
foreign material like clips, bands, etc. Bills such as these can cause the machine to
malfunction.
Adjust the hopper bill guides to a size slightly wider (0.10’’ on each side) than the width
of the bills in the stack (all US dollar denomination are the same size). This will help to
correctly place the bills in the hopper, and will ensue smooth bill feeding.
WARNING: Hazardous moving parts!
Do not place fingers, hair, clothes, etc. near the moving parts.

TIPS: To Reduce Rejects
1. MAKE A STACK
Correct or remove bills that are
severly wrinkled, damaged or
folded. Square the bill stack.
3. FEED THE BILLS
2. LOAD THE STACK

OPERATING MODES
3.
3.1 Mix Mode
MIX mode is used to count a stack of mixed denominations. To count mixed bills, place
them in the hopper and follow the procedure described in 2.2 LOADING THE HOPPER.
The machine will start counting and will move the bills from the hopper to the stacker as
it counts them. The machine will stop counting when the hopper is completely emptied.
Total number of bills and total value will be displayed on home screen. When operation
is complete, you can view a detailed report by pressing the REPORT button.
To return to MIX mode from another mode, press the MODE button until ‘’MIX’’ is
displayed on the home screen. Note that the Kolibri Domino will keep in memory the
last mode used.
3.2 Sort Mode
This mode is available by pressing the MODE button until ‘’SORT’’ is displayed on the
home screen.
SORT mode allows the user to count and sort bills by one denomination which is
automaticallydeterminedbytherstbillscannedinastack.Thiscanbeusefultobe
sure that there are no bills of other denominations in a large strap of one denomination.
Therstbillinthehopperdeterminesthecountingandsortingdenomination.Anytimea
bill passes through the machine and does not conform to the denomination determined
bytherstbill,themachinewillrejectthisbill,beepanda“DIFFERENTDENOMINATION”
message will be displayed on the screen. Total number of bills and total value will be
displayed on home screen. When operation is complete, you can view a detailed report
by pressing the REPORT button.

when Domino begins to count, and if a different denomination is detected, the machine
stops and displays a message. The user must follow the instructions displayed on that
message. Every time a denomination changes, the user must remove all bills from the
stackerandseparatethembydenomination.Whencountingisnished,theuserwill
have separated all bills into piles of each denomination. VSort by default works with
ADD mode, allowing the user to keep track of the total number of bills along with the
total value displayed on the home screen. When the operation is complete, the user can
review a detailed report by pressing the REPORT button.
To return to VSort mode from another mode, press the MODE button until “VSORT” is
displayed on the home screen. Note that Domino will keep in memory the last mode
used.
3.4 Count Mode
This mode is available by pressing the MODE button until “COUNT” is displayed on the
home screen.
COUNT mode allows the user to simply count the total number of bills. It does not
recognize or record the denomination of any bills. During COUNT mode, there is no
counterfeit detection active except ultraviolet.
*Detection can be turned ON or OFF manually in MENU under option 2. DETECTIONS*
To return to COUNT mode from another mode, press the MODE button until “COUNT” is

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
6.
6.1 Maintenance
ATTENTION: The unit should always be turned off and disconnected from its power cord
before cleaning. DO NOT use solvents such as thinner, alcohol, etc. to clean the machine.
Most operational problems can be avoided by regular care and preventative maintenance.
TakingregularcareoftheDominowillsignicantlyincreaseitslifetime.
To avoid problems, make sure there are no metal clips or rubber bands in the bills being
counted. Be sure to follow the proper procedure for loading the hopper, refer to section 2.2
LOADING THE HOPPER.
For best results, it is recommended to use an air duster and a soft bristle brush to remove
any dust or debris from the interior of the unit. When not using the machine for an extended
period, cover it with the dust cover (not included with the unit) to prevent dust from settling
inside.
All parts of the Kolibri Domino need daily care and cleaning. Pay close attention to the
sensors, which are delicate components. If any dust or other foreign matter adheres to the
sensors, it may cause various problems during operation of the machine.
• To avoid malfunction caused by foreign objects, please clean your machine every day.
• Clean back door sensors with the provided bristle brush or a dry cloth frequently
• Clean inner sensors with the provided dry cloth frequently.
• Clean hopper and stacker sensors with the provided bristle brush or a dry cloth frequently.
• Rubber rollers may be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. You may use a small
amount of liquid soap on the cloth, but the soap residue should properly removed.

4. Guide the bill between the inner rollers during this step; you should feel moderate
resistence as you move the bill back and forth through these rollers. In other
words, the gap between these rollers is wide enough to pass just one bill per
count, but narrow enough to feel a slight tension or friction when pulling the bill out.
To adjust the bill feed gap, use the instructions below to
turn the adjustment screw at the top of the unit:
a) Adjust the knob, slight turn at a time and then retest.
b) If the bill feels too loose, tighten the feed gap by
turning the adjustment screw clockwise.
c) If the resistence against the bill feels too strong,
loosen the gap by turning the screw counterclockwise.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The Kolibri Domino’s feed gap adjustment can be
sensitive during adjustments. Do not overturn
each adjustment or you may overshoot
the optimum gap. We recommend testing with
a stack of bills after each adjustment turn.

6.3 Calibration Procedure
The contact image sensors (CIS), Ultraviolet (UV) and Infrared (IR) sensors of the unit
are calibrated properly from the factory. With regular, basic use, the sensor’s sensitivity
decreases which can lead to ID errors. To resolve this issue, the unit can be re-calibrated
using the white calibration card that came with the unit.
Please follow the steps below to calibrate the sensor:
1. Ensure the machine is turned ON
2. Press MENU button, move down and select 4. SERVICE, when in SERVICE,
select 2. CALIBRATION, when in CALIBRATION, CIS will be highlighted and
instruction will be written on the screen.
3. Then turn the machine backside front.
4. Pull the back door handle to get access to sensor blocks. When inside, push
the metal latch down to get access to upper and lower sensor block with CIS
sensors. Put provided laminated calibration card between two sensor blocks.
Bring the lower sensor block back to its initial position by pushing the metal
latch down and lifting the lower sensor block. Make sure the lower sensor
block is hooked back properly.
