General Description

NV4 Validator - the next generation of Smiley® Bank Note validators

Figure 1 - Top View of NV4 Validator

The NV4 Bank Note Validator is a compact currency tester, suitable for most money machines. It will accept

up to four different denominations of notes in the basic output mode, inserted in any orientation with most

currencies, and will cope with different designs of banknote having the same value such as are found in the

United Kingdom or Spain. It may also be re-configured to offer up to 15 different denominations so that multi

currency validation may be done. Please note that this feature is only available using the pulse stream output, the

RS232 serial interface or the binary output feature.

The NV4 Validator leaves the factory containing at least one currency data set so that it is ready for immediate

installation. If it is desired to change the currency data set this may be done using either the NV4 to NV4

currency copy system or the PC based Currency Management software. The unit may also be programmed using

the built in teach facility, without requiring any additional equipment, to cope with new issues of notes or

different currencies. New currencies and applications are being tested all the time, so please refer to our web

site or contact the factory for information concerning specific currencies if they are not already included on our

approved list.

The Validator is of small size and has been designed for easy installation in most machines. The unique “smiling

mouth” allows insertion of notes with one hand and simplifies the note handling mechanism. The NV4 however

has a flat note exit permitting more note handling options

Interfacing the Validator is very simple, with the choice of parallel open collector outputs, pulse stream output,

binary output or a 300bps serial input and output.

The principle of operation is that when a note is presented to the Validator the front optical sensors activates the

motor and electronics. As the note is drawn through the Validator it is measured and examined with a broad

range of wavelengths of light along its length. The lens assembly enables the Validator to examine the whole of

the width of the note on both top and bottom faces , while at the same time making the validation process

insensitive to marks commonly found on many banknotes in circulation.

General Description

GA125 Issue 11

The characteristics of the note are then analysed to see if they fall within the characteristics of any of the notes

that the Validator has been taught to recognise, and if so, the note is accepted and the vend signal sent on the

appropriate channel. Several techniques are implemented to detect forged notes and prevent the retrieval of

notes already accepted. If any irregularities are encountered during the validation process, the note is

immediately returned. In the unlikely event that a counterfeit note is found that the Validator will accept, then it

may be taught to recognise that note and reject it in future using the channel 5 feature.

If the validation process matches the note to the data stored in its memory it will be passed through the Validator

and into the host machine. The anti-strimming device consists of a mechanical roller that creates the “one way

door” mechanical security. The note is reversed back over the top of the roller and out of the validator, following

a path along which it is impossible to pull the note back using tape or wire.

Microprocessor technology is used to ensure high acceptance rates for genuine notes, and high sensitivity to

forgeries. The unit is also designed so that there are no analogue controls, ensuring a long and stable operating

life with no routine maintenance required.

NV5

This product has a simplified interface to the validator where no manual teaching of notes is possible and the

rear anti strim roller operation is switchable. The units are supplied as standard with a short anti return-guard.

On receipt from the factory the anti return roller will be switched off.

Caution: The rear roller is integral in the security of the validator against "fishing" type frauds and therefore

this NV5 option should only be used in benign environments.

The NV5 Firmware uses the prefix 3 to signify NV5 operation.

NV5 Functionality.

Anti return roller operation select & initialisation:

At power up if the select button is held down and the slide switch is in teach, the NV5 will enter Anti-strim roller

function. The state of the roller may be toggled by clicking the select switch. To leave this mode slide teach

switch to run. If the select switch is pushed during the time-out period, the NV5 calibrate flag is reset and when

the NV5 starts up the panel bulb will flash indicating that the unit is ready to initialise.

Erasing of Faces:

In this version of NV5, the teaching and erasing of note faces within the validator are disabled.

Cloning:

It is possible to clone Issue 1 and 2 NV4's to become NV5's but it is not possible to reverse the operation.

Apart from the differences mentioned above the NV4 and NV5 functionality is the same. Therefore the rest of

this manual applies to both products except where stated.

GA125 Issue 11

Display Information

The four red LED’s on the top of the unit are used to provide a variety of status signals:

Firmware revision code

From software revision 2.50 onwards, when the validator is first switched on, the LED’s are used to signal the 3

digit firmware revision number in sequence using a binary coding. A zero is shown by all 4 LED’s lighting up.

Each digit is shown in turn for about 0.5 sec. E.g. for version 2.51 the sequence is:

LED 1 2 3 4

‘2’

‘5’

‘1’

Figure 2 - LED’s indicate firmware revision

a full list of number codes is shown in figure 4b

Heartbeat

In normal RUN operation, when the validator is ready to read a note, LED’s 2 and 3 flash alternately

("Heartbeat") to signal a “healthy” status. see fig 3a. If the option to permanently add a stacker is set then if the

stacker is removed, the LED's 1 & 4 flash alternatively. see fig 3b.

LED1 2 3 4

Figure 3a - LED’s indicate healthy status

LED1 2 3 4

Figure 4b - LED’s indicate stacker removed

Other combinations relate to specific functions and are described in later sections. If the validator is started with

the Teach/Run switch set to TEACH, then after the revision number display it will go directly into teach mode -

see later section.

General Description

GA125 Issue 11

Validation / reject codes (as from firmware version 2.6.2)

When a note is accepted, while the unit is in parallel or pulse mode, a code is presented on the LED's

representing the channel in which it was accepted. If the "enable reject code" option is set then, during note

validation the heartbeat will be suspended and should the note be rejected then a code is flashed twice

representing the reason for rejection, prior to the heartbeat returning.

The codes flashed are as follows in fig 4a
