ACA machines are also known as "Quantum Gold," "MDC2," and "Galaxy 600"
Please reference the general Penny and Pulse Installation guides found below:
ALWAYS POWER DOWN MACHINES THROUGHOUT DEVICE INSTALLATION.
Required Materials
Cents device (Penny or Pulse)
Harness (30-01022 or 30-01331)
H10 Power Adapter (30-01190) Front-Load Horizon and Top-Load machines only
Purchasing the Cents Install Kit is optional but recommended.
Harness Installation Steps
Identify the empty 7-pin male header on the control board. Using the 30-01022/30-01331 harness, plug the female 7-pin connector onto this header.
Identify the male 2-pin connector that is located in a wire bundle coming off of the control board. If traced to the board, the wires from this connector will go to a connector labeled H10. Plug in the 2-pin female connector from the 30-01022/30-01331 harness into this 2-pin male connector.
NOTE small chassis front-load and top-load machines will not have this adapter pre-installed. Locate the small black female connector labeled H10 on the control board. Use the 30-01190 adapter to plug into this connector, and plug in the 2-pin female power
Connect the Penny via the 16-pin connector and test power.
Device Installation Steps
Consult the general guide for installation specifics.
Washers
Depending on machine size and owner preference, devices can be mounted in various locations. Always ensure that ergonomic requirements are met and that all responsible parties are in agreement on the installation location before drilling.
Dryers
Single dryers have various locations that will work for device mounting. Always ensure harness length is sufficient. Devices can be mounted on stacked dryers in two locations, shown by the red and blue squares below.
Device Programming
Ensure that the VLAN setup has already been performed in order to move forward with device provisioning.
Follow the generic Penny Installation guide for overall instructions on device provisioning. Shown below are machine-specific provisioning instructions for Dexter C-Series Washers.
Using any smartphone, scan the QR code. A URL with the device's unique ID will be opened. You will be prompted with a login page. Use the provided login. After logging in, a provisioning page for that device will appear.
Washers
For this machine type, copy the settings as shown above:
Washer
Device Number: Input the machine number according to the store's numbering convention.
Short device Name: This identifier will prepend each credit card transaction unique ID. Most commonly users prepend the number with "W".
Choose Machine Type: SERIAL
Choose Serial Type: ACA
Price in Dollars: Ignore
Minutes per Quarter: Ignore
After pressing submit, the device will reboot. Each time the device reboots it will display its QR code which can be scanned to verify the settings previously chosen for that device. In the event that a setting was entered incorrectly, contact Cents.
Dryers
For this machine type, copy the settings as shown above:
Dryer
Device Number: Input the machine number according to the store's numbering convention. Note that duplicates are not allowed. If for some reason you need to input a duplicate number, simply prefix it with '0'. E.g. Washer01
Short device Name: This identifier will prepend each credit card transaction unique ID. Most commonly users prepend the number with "D".
Choose Machine Type: SERIAL
Choose Serial Type: ACA
Price in Dollars: Ignore
Minutes per Quarter: Ignore
After pressing submit, the device will reboot. Each time the device reboots it will display its QR code which can be scanned to verify the settings previously chosen for that device. In the event that a setting was entered incorrectly, contact Cents.
Machine Programming
ACA machines must be set to SERIAL MODE by flipping DIPSWITCH #3 to the UP position.
A small screwdriver or pocket knife will make flipping this switch easier. After flipping the switch, restart the machine to make this change permanent. If the device is not yet configured, the machine will show EC19, which means that it has been successfully placed in SERIAL MODE and is awaiting serial communications from a card system.
