This information is designed to guide you in the use of the iBill Talking
Banknote Identifier. The accompanying CD also provides these instructions
in audio and soft-copy form.
Operating Instructions: Hold the iBill unit in the palm of your hand so that
the key ring is located on the bottom and the raised flat surface (the bill
slot) is on top. Insert the banknote into the slot, under the raised flat
surface, such that the short edge of the banknote is parallel to the long side
of the unit. When the banknote has been fully inserted, press and release
either one of the two buttons located on the shorter sides of the unit. The
unit will announce the denomination of the banknote and turn itself off.
Features and Controls: The iBill is operated by two buttons located on the
shorter sides of the unit. Either button can be pressed to identify a bill. To
adjust the volume level or select the output mode press and hold one of
the two buttons and then press and release the other button until the
desired selection is achieved. Each time the second button is pressed and
released, the unit will switch to the next mode or volume level in the
following sequence: Vibration mode, Tone mode, Speech volume-1,
Speech volume-2, Speech volume-3 and back to Vibration mode.
Maintenance Instructions:Ensure the iBill is kept clean and dry. Do not
drop or subject to forceful impact. Do not insert foreign objects into bill
slot.
Battery: The unit is powered by a single AAA alkaline battery in a
compartment located on the bottom of the unit, on the same surface as
the key ring. Its cover is identified by two raised ridges.
Battery Warning: If the battery is weak, a warning is provided at the end of
each denomination announcement in the form of two short beeps of high
and low pitch in Speech and Tone Modes or three very short vibration
pulses. The unit will continue to work reliably for approximately 200 more
reads and will automatically adjust volume to a lower level to enable
continued operation.

Earphone Jack:A standard 2.5 millimeter jack for an earphone is located
on the long edge between the two buttons, towards the key ring.
Announcements: The following words are announced in Speech Mode:
One, Two, Five, Ten, Twenty, Fifty, Hundred, Error.When tone or
vibration mode is selected, announcements are indicated as follows:
1 low-pitch beep/short pulse: $1
1 high-pitch beep/long pulse: $10
2 low-pitch beeps/short pulses: $2
2 high-pitch beeps/long pulses: $20
3 low-pitch beeps/short pulses: $5
3 high-pitch beeps/long pulses: $50
4 beeps in low-high-low-high pattern or
4 pulses in short-long-short-long pattern: $100
Error is indicated by three beeps of different pitch or a very long pulse
Troubleshooting:
If the unit does not turn on or turns off without announcing the result,
the battery may be weak and should be replaced. To replace the battery,
open the compartment on the bottom of the unit by gently sliding open
the battery cover. Pull the silk strip to release the old battery and insert a
fresh AAA alkaline battery. The negative terminal of the battery (flat end)
should be inserted first into the left side of the compartment (as it faces
you) followed by the positive terminal.
If the unit is unable to identify a bill (indicates an Error): The corner of
the bill may be damaged or folded. Insert the bill in a different orientation.
Ensure that the bill is fully inserted and not moved during the identification
process.
If the unit still does not work, please call the U.S. Currency Reader
Program Information Line toll free at 844-815-9388 for further assistance.
