2 About ...
This chapter is intended to provide a general overview of the advantages and options of the coin
validator v2eaglewithparallelBDTAinterface.Therstsection,however,isdesignedtohelpyou
navigate easily within these operating instructions.
2.1 About these operating instructions
These operating instructions describe the design and operation of the electronic 5" coin validator
v2eagle with parallel BDTA interface. Afterwards, chapters 6 and 7 explain the necessary steps
for starting up and operating the coin validator. Chapter 7 describes how to clean the coin
validator and remedy the cause of any malfunction.
Chap.10"Technicaldata"andtheappended"Index"reducethesearchforspecicexplanations.
2.1.1 Text conventions
To make it easier for you to navigate within these operating instructions and to operate the
device, the following accentuations were made in the text:
Safety instructions which you must observe in order to protect operators
and equipment.
Special notes intended to facilitate the use of the coin validator.
At the beginning of each chapter you will nd a short "guide" which summarizes
the contents of the chapter.
Device functions which are set or prepared by the manufacturer according
to customer specications and can be set or changed using our service and
conguration tools (cf. Chap. 9 What subsequent settings can be made?, p. 35).

2.1.2 Additional useful technical documentation
Apart from the operating instructions you already have, further documentation is available for the
v2eagle,e.g.documentationconcerningconguration.Alldocumentationcanbedownloaded
fromtheNRIhomepage(www.nri.de)aspdfle.
2.2 About the v2eagle
The v2-eagle coin validator with parallel BDTA interface in the standardized 5“ format uses the
patented multi-frequency technology (MFT) for reliable coin validation. Communication with the
vending machine control system takes place via the 16-pin BDTA connecting plug. Due to its
modular, compact design the v2eagle is ideally suited for slot and vending machines.
For coin acceptance the coin validator has 32 coin channels which – divided into 2 x 16 coin
channels  – can be managed in two memory blocks with different coin congurations and
selected individually.
Depending on the application the coin validator can optionally be equipped with 5-fold sorting.
To be able to react as quickly as possible to new false coins and to make your individual settings,
thecoinvalidatorcanbeconguredonsiteinthemachineusingaservicetoolorintheworkshop
via a PC programming station.
Any coins or tokens not taken into account by the manufacturer can be programmed in the optional
teachmodedirectlyonthecoinvalidatorwithoutanycongurationsoftwarebyinsertingthecoins.
2.2.1 The v2-eagle features
• Reliable acceptance of genuine coins and rejection of false coins due to MFT multiple
sensing of the coins inserted and evaluation of 24 measuring parameters
• Operating and manipulation safety provided by optical accepted coin sensors and sorting
control in the coin validation and coin outlet area
• Acceptance speed of two coins per second
• 32coinchannelsmanagedintwoindependentlyconguredandindividuallyselectable
memory blocks (2 x 16 coin channels)
• Service interface for PC programming station or on-site service tool
• Flashtechnologyforeasyandtime-savingrmwareupdates(CXFlash))
• Options
–teach mode for eight coin channels
–string sensor
–top or front entry, front or bottom return
–front plate
–5-fold longitudinal sorting
–four different return levers depending on machine type

2.2.2 Models
The v2eagle is available in different models. They mainly differ
• in the coin insert and return area
• in the sorting mechanism.
2.2.2.1 Coin entry and return area
• Top entry and bottom return (E1xxP4. ../E2xxP4. ..)
The coin is inserted into the device from the top and returned, if not
accepted, via the return area at the bottom.
• Front entry and bottom return (E3xxP4. ..)
The coin is inserted into the device from the side and returned, if not
accepted, via the return area at the bottom. The coin validator with
frontentrygenerallyhasanNRIfrontplatettedtotheleft-handside
of the device (cf. Chap. 10.3 Accessories, p. 40). However, this model is also
available without front plate.
• Front entry and bottom return (E4xxP4. ..)
The coin is inserted into the device from the side and returned, if not
accepted, via the return area also located on the side. The coin validator
withfrontentryandfrontreturngenerallyhasanNRIfrontplatettedto
the left-hand side of the device (cf. Chap. 10.3 Accessories, p. 40). However,
this model is also available without front plate.
2.2.2.2 Internal 5-fold sorting
In order to sort the accepted coins into the cash-box or e.g. change tubes
or hoppers, the v2eagle can optionally be equipped with an internal 5-fold sorting system
(cf. Chap. 5.6 Sorting accepted coins (option), p. 23):
• 5-fold longitudinal sorting (Ex8xP4. ..)
• Fixed sorting chute in longitudinal sorting system (without sorting)
(Ex1xP4. ../Ex2xP4. ../Ex3xP4. ../Ex4xP4. ../Ex5xP4. ..)
