Bill Acceptor Smiley NV4/7/8/9/10

The payment device Smiley NV4/7/8/9/10 is a bill acceptor that was designed for providers of public access Internet terminals to charge their users for online time by means of bank notes.
This company informed us that their devices are working properly if you are using the correct RS232 cable set. NV's can be used in combination with all currencies commonly used throughout the world.If you have problems with the hardware, please contact your vendor or Innovative Technology. PROVISIO does not sell this product and will not be able to help you.
Tip:
The Smiley bill acceptors are accesible with the ccTalk Protocol which provides more and better control than the Simple Serial I/O protocol. We therefore recommend the ccTalk protocol. If you need to change the bill acceptor's firmware version, the Manufacturer provides tools for this.

Next you can specify the money value of the bills displayed in relation to the main currency. Money value means that you can define the value of foreign currencies in relation to the main currency. However, as a rule, you should specify that the main currency is the same as the currency you can select here. Exit the window by clicking OK.

The device is now ready for use.
