Adjustment Of The Feed Gap
The correct Feed Gap setting of the Central Feed Roller assemblies is vitally
important to the smooth function of the machine. After extremely long-term usage,
the rubber components of both the Feed Roller and the Friction Roller may be subject
to natural wear. Under this condition, the Feed Gap may become too wide and, as a
result, Error Codes will be generated and note feeding will become erratic.
To check and adjust the Feed Gap to counteract this simple wear condition, please
operate according to the following procedure, combined with the photograph below:
1. Manually insert a genuine banknote into the Feed Gap and pull it backwards, if
you did not feel any resistance while removing the note, it indicates the gap is too
wide. If you feel the resistance is very strong, it indicates the Feed Gap is too
narrow. (When the machine leaves our factory, the initial setting of the
Thickness Dial is 2).
2. If the Feed Gap is found to be too wide, please adjust the Thickness Knob
counter-clockwise to slowly reduce the Feed Gap until the proper
slipping-resistance is achieved with your banknote.
3. If the Feed Gap is found to be too narrow, please adjust the Thickness Knob
clockwise to increase the feed gap until the proper slipping-resistance is achieved
with your bank note.

Precautions
Before connecting your currency counter
with the local domestic mains supply, please
ENSURE that your local mains voltage is
correctly shown by the Switch, either ‟110‟
or ‟220‟ volts, mounted on the rear of the
machine. If the indication is incorrect,
ensure the machine is disconnected with
the electrical source. Then the Switch can
be easily moved to the correct position
using a suitable blunt implement.
DO NOT drop any clothing, hair, paper clips, staples, etc., into the Hopper area. If the
Optical Sensor is obscured, the Document Feeding System will operate without
warning.
Before you turn on the machine, please ensure you remove ALL Notes from the
Hopper and Stacker areas.
OPERATION
To make the best use of the machine, please operate in the following procedures.
Start
Turn on the Power Switch on the rear of the machine. The machine will enter into a
'Self-Test' mode. The display will show “BC2000-US” and the Motor systems will run for
approximately 1 second, then, if correct, the Motors will stop and the display will change to

show as in Fig.1
1. Turn on the power supply, the machine enters into self-testing mode, the display shows: BC2000 -US.
In the meantime the main motor rotates for 1 second in low speed.
2. If self-testing is correct, the main motor stops, the display shows as following:
Fig.1
adjust the Note Guides
After function setting is completed, it is
important to adjust the distance between the
two Note Guides according to the length of the
notes to be counted.
Working Mode Selection
Users can select the mode as in needed with the procedures as follow.
Press the VALUE key to change between Value mode as is in Fig.2,and Normal
mode as is in Fig.1

Speed Selection
NOTE
When the bank notes being counted are in a distressed condition, and lacking in
dimensional stability, the lowest speed of 800 per minute should be selected.
Bank notes of reasonably good „street quality‟ are normally best counted at the middle
setting of 1,100 per minute.
Counting at the highest speed of 1,500 notes per minute should only be used for bank
notes in new, to very good, condition.
Press the SPEED key to the select the different Counting Speeds. (Table1)
Table 1:
Level
