Figure 5-6 Currency Selection Interface
5.3.1. AUTO (Automatic Recognition Mode)
In the process of counting banknotes, the IMC08 uses the first banknote passing through the sensor as the
template to recognize banknotes of all denominations of the same currency. When banknotes of other
currencies are recognized, they will be sent to the reject pocket. The machine can only recognize the
currencies displayed in the currency selection interface.
Figure 5-7 Auto Recognition Counting Interface
Example: Use a handful of USD bills into the IMC08 hopper to count. The interface of the IMC08 displays
as Figure 5-8 at the end of counting. The currency in the upper left corner is identified as USD.

Figure 5-11 Multi-currency MDC Counting Result
5.3.3. Non-Volatile Memory for Currency Mode
The currency mode setting is non-volatile. For example, if you set multi-currency counting mode before you
power down the IMC08, next time the IMC08 will be in multi-currency counting mode after power on. It is
a convenience that you will not need to reselect the currency every time you power on the IMC08.
5.4. Counting Mode Selection
After the machine is turned on, the flag & currency graphic appears in the upper left corner, indicating that
the machine is in the current currency counting mode.
The default mode is MDC mode. By pressing the MODE key of the control panel, three counting modes can
be toggled in an MDC-CNT-SDC-SDCV sequence.
5.4.1. MDC Mode
As shown in the following figure, the IMC08 is in MDC mode. In this mode, the IMC08 will count the
banknotes of all denominations of the selected currency, and the total amount and number of banknotes are
displayed on the screen. Any suspicious notes or other currency notes will be sent to the reject pocket. In
this mode, the IMC08 has 2 counting speed (800/1000 pcs/min) options.
Figure 5-12 MDC Mode
5.4.2. SDC Mode
As shown in the following figure, the IMC08 is in SDC mode. This mode allows the user to count and sort
the banknotes by one denomination which is automatically determined by the first note scanned in a stack.
This can be useful to be sure that there is no other denomination banknote in a large strap of one
denomination. The first banknote in the hopper determines the counting and sorting denomination. Any time
a note passes through the IMC08 anddoes not conform to the denomination determined by the first note, the
IMC08 will reject this not into the reject pocket. The total amount andnumber ofbanknotes will be displayed
on the screen. In this mode, the IMC08 has 2 counting speed (800/1000/min) options.

Version 1.03
Figure 5-13 SDC Mode
5.4.3. CNT Mode
As shown in the following figure, the IMC08 is in CNT mode. This mode does not limit the currency, and
only counts the number of banknotes. It only works with the double note detection function and no other
counterfeit detection function. In this mode, the IMC08 has 4 counting speed (800/1000/1200/1500 pcs/min)
options.
Figure 5-14 CNT Mode
Note: While in the CNT mode, there is only a double note detection function but no any counterfeit detection
functions.
5.4.4. SDCV Mode
As shown below, the IMC08 is in SDCV mode. This mode allows the user to count and sort notes by one
version which is automatically determined by the first note scanned in a stack. This can be useful to be sure
that there are not notes of other versions in a large strap of one version. The first banknote in the hopper
determines the counting and sorting version. Any time a note passes through the IMC08 and does not
conform to the version determined by the first note, the machine will reject this note into the reject pocket.
The total amount and number of banknotes will be displayed on the screen. In this mode, the IMC08 has 2
counting speed (800/1000/min) options.

↓key.
Figure 5-21 Batch Setting Interface
Press the ESC key to return to the main interface to confirm the batch quantity.
Figure 5-22 Batch Number Indicator
Note: the stacker maximum capacity is 200 bills, so the batch number should be less or equal to 200.
Batch function is used to select a batch quantity for a specific counting process. The IMC08 counts a preset
number of notes and then stops counting when the batch number has been reached, even if the notes remain
in the hopper. When the banknotes are removed from the stacker, the IMC08 will continue count up to the
preset batch quantity to create another batch.
5.6. Counting Speed Setting
There are four counting speed options: 1500, 1200, 1000 and 800 (Note: 1500 and 1200 are the only optional
in CNT mode). The default speed is 1000 in three modes. If a specific setting is needed, different counting
speed can be switched by pressing the SPEED key in any counting mode.
