Figure 4
6.2.1.1 <MIX> Mix Counting Mode
Figure 5 and Figure 6 below show the interface of Mix Counting Mode in the automatic state of the
machine. In this mode, the machine will count all the denominations of the same currency and record the
detailed information of the counted banknotes, including the total amount and the total number of
banknotes in the stacker for the convenience of users to view. When this mode is selected, the machine will
count at the default speed (L: 800/M: 1000/H:1200 PCS/min. 3 levels for option).
Figure 5 Figure 6
6.2.1.2 <SDC> Single Counting Mode
Figure 7 and Figure 8 below show the interface of Single Counting Mode in the automatic state of the
machine. In this mode, the machine will take the first banknote to be counted as a reference to count the
same denomination of the same currency, and at the same time the detailed information of the counted
banknotes, including the total amount and the total number of banknotes in the stacker, will be counted and
saved in detail for the convenience of users to view (note: different denominations rejected in this mode
will be prompted with an error in size). When this mode is selected, the machine will count at the default
speed (L: 800/M: 1000/H:1200 PCS/min. 3 levels for option).

6.2.1.3 <CNT> Count Mode
Figure 9 and Figure 10 below show the interface of CNT Count Mode in the automatic state of the
machine. This mode does not limit the currency and only counts the number of PCS. When this mode is
selected, the machine will count at the default speed (L: 1000/M: 1200/H:1500 PCS/min), and only the
counterfeit function is reserved.
Figure 9 Figure 10
Note: In MIX Counting Mode and SDC Single Counting Mode, the machine has the functions of
image acquisition, magnetic detection, ultraviolet detection and duplicate detection. While in CNT
Counting Mode, there is only a double detection function.
6.2.1 Multi-country Mix Counting Mode
Multi-country Mix Counting: A mixture of national currencies placed in a machine to count,
displaying the number and amount of each currency according to its currency name. Note: The machine can
only recognize the supported national currency displayed by the machine. The currency not supported will
be stopped.

Details of counting after counting are shown in the following figure 12:
Figure 12
6.2.3 Automatic Recognition Mode
Automatic recognition: Refers to the automatic recognition of banknote counting mode. In the process
of counting banknotes, the machine uses the first banknote passing through the sensor as the judgment rule
to recognize banknotes of all denominations of the same country. When banknotes from other countries are
recognized, the machine will alarm and stop. At this time, banknotes from other countries need to be taken
out, and the machine will continue counting. The machine can only recognize the currency of the country
displayed in the program.
Press the key or the flag on upper left corner of the display to enter the currency
selection interface, as shown in Figure 3 below. Click the automatic identification mode, and the
display screen will be automatically adjusted to the main interface after selection, as shown in Figure 13
