SERIAL NUMBER SCANNING
The serial number scan function records the unique serial numbers of the counted banknotes.
Serial number scanning is available for the following currencies: EUR, USD, GBP, HKD and CNY.
Activation of serial number scanning can be done in the user menu.
Viewing the serial number information:
• The serial number information is viewed on a receipt print after printing the count results.
Printing can be done on the optional Safescan TP-230 printer.
• The Safescan 2885-S also offers the possibility to export the serial number information to the
Safescan Money Counting Software.
Please note: The 2885-S only records serial numbers from one side. The side of the banknote with the serial
numbers should face up.
In case of a mixed orientation stack of notes, count the bundle twice:
First facing up, Second facing down.
All serial numbers of this stack are now recorded and kept in memory until printed or exported.
