The CASSETTE PARAMETERS option allows the terminal operator to perform the following functions:

1  Relearn Bill Thickness - Relearn the thickness of the documents loaded in the cassette. More infoFor some dispensing mechanisms, the first time the dispenser is set up or a new note cassette is installed, the mechanism will enter a learning mode during which it will learn the thickness of the currency or other media. This process may dispense and reject as many as 7-15 notes into the reject cassette/tray/compartment.
During normal operation, if you start experiencing an abnormal amount of rejected notes, you may have to manually initiate this option. This will force the dispenser to enter a relearn mode.

2  All Cassettes Locked / Unlocked (NMD-Only) - Physically lock or unlock ALL cassettes in the dispensing mechanism chassis. More infoThe NMDs are designed to physically lock the cassettes for normal operation. If you need to remove a cassette for servicing, troubleshooting, etc, the cassettes for the NMDs must first be Unlocked (unchecked). This option Locks (checked) or Unlocks (unchecked) the cassettes.

For normal Cassette Close procedures, the cassettes will automatically Unlock and Lock.

3  Retract Cash (NMD-Only) - Enable/disable the automatic retraction of the bundle carriage unit which transports the documents to the output tray of the dispenser. More infoWhen this option is enabled (checked), the Retract Delay option 4 is activated allowing you to specify the length of the delay the dispenser will wait before retracting the note transporter.

      Enable Extension Rejects (TDM-200/250) - When enabled, allows the extension to automatically purge any notes detected as remaining in the extension. The purge is done at power up or as part of a dispenser operation. More infoOn an RT2000, the TDM dispensers contain a bill extension unit. This option will enable (checked) or disable (unchecked) the option of rejecting bills in the extension.

Enable Extension Rejects ON:
The terminal will stay in service and attempt to purge the extension before the next dispense for both full and partial dispenses caused by a trailing edge timeout that caused the machine to stop prior to delivering all of the requested notes.

Enable Extension Rejects OFF:
Terminal will go out of service with Error Code 97 (Extension exit trailing edge timeout) for both full and partial dispenses caused by a trailing edge timeout that caused the machine to stop prior to delivering all of the requested notes.

4  Retract Delay (NMD Only) - Determine the amount of time the dispenser will wait before retracting the bundle carriage unit. It can be set from 30 to 120 seconds.

5  Active Cassette - Select the cassette that will receive the results of any changes to the various cassette and note configuration parameters that are accessed via the cassette parameters dialog.

6  Cassette In Service (Multi-cassette Dispensers) - Places the currently selected cassette in service or out of service. More infoSome dispensers (multi-cassette) allow individual cassettes to be placed Out of Service (unchecked). This means the selected cassette(s) will not be used by the dispenser for withdrawal requests. This capability can be used, for example, to remove a low or empty cassette from service, while still allowing the dispenser to continue operation using the remaining cassette(s).

NOTE: The NMD-50/100 cassettes MUST be Locked and IN-Service (checked) for normal operation.

7  Multiple Amount - Set the denomination of the currency in a cassette. More infoThis option must be set for the denomination (value) of the currency in the selected cassette (option 5). Typical values are 5, 10, 20, 50, or 100 notes.

8  Document Type - Enter the type of document in the selected cassette: Cash or Non-Cash (e.g., stamps, coupons, cards).

Note: Single cassette dispensers and ALL TDMs are always set for Cash.

9  Non-Cash Item Description (NMD Only) - Enter up to 28 characters describing the non-cash item in the active cassette.

0  Secondary Item Description (NMD Only) - Enter up to 28 characters of general information about the non-cash item in the active cassette or other information as required.

F1 Note Configuration (NMD Only) - This function allows you to configure the note-specific operating parameters for the active cassette. More info
