ALWAYS POWER DOWN MACHINES THROUGHOUT DEVICE INSTALLATION.

Please reference the general Penny and Pulse Installation guides found below:

Penny General Guide

Required Materials

  1. Cents device (Penny or Pulse)

  2. Harness (30-00963)

  3. Flying Lead Power Adapter with Spade Connectors (30-01339) stacked dryers only

  4. Flying Lead Power Adapter (30-00899) washers only

  5. 24V Adapter (81-01613) single dryers only

  6. 2x 18-22AWG Splices (81-01616) washers and single dryers only

Consult the table below for clarification about differences in tapping power for each C-Series machine variant. Purchasing the Cents Install Kit is optional but recommended.

Harness Installation Steps

Washer

  1. Identify the 6-pin male header labeled SERIAL COM on the Dexter control board.

  2. Using the 30-00963 harness, plug the female 6-pin connector into this header.

  3. Identify the 24VAC transformer. There will be two red/orange wires at its output.

  4. Using the provided 81-01616 splices, connect the 30-00899 flying lead power adapter to the 24VAC supply provided by the transformer.

  5. Plug in the male 2-pin connector from the 30-00899 harness into the female 2-pin connector on the 30-00963 harness.

  6. Connect the Penny via the 16-pin connector and test power.

Stacked Dryers

  1. Identify the 6-pin male header labeled SERIAL COM on the Dexter control board.

  2. Using the 30-00963 harness, plug the female 6-pin connector into this header.

  3. Identify two leads (black and white) each with a male spade connector surrounded by a clear plastic covering. Using the 30-01339 harness, connect the female spade connector ends to these wires.

  4. Plug in the male 2-pin connector from the 30-01339 harness into the female 2-pin connector on the 30-00963 harness.

  5. Connect the Penny via the 16-pin connector and test power.

Reference the schematic for further clarification.

Single Dryers

The process for connecting the serial connector on single dryers is identical to that for stacked dryers. Simply identify the 6-pin header labeled "SERIAL COM"

Power, however, is slightly different for single dryers. There is no 24VAC transformer that is easily accessible. As such, use the 81-01613 24V adapter.

  1. Identify the 120VAC transformer

  2. Using the 81-01616 splices, connect the 81-01613 24V adapter to the 120VAC side of the transformer, each wire of the adapter to one wire of the transformer

  3. Connect the male 2-pin connector on the 81-01613 24V adapter to the female 2-pin connector on the 30-00963 harness.

Reference the schematic for further clarification.

Device Installation Steps

Depending on machine size and owner preference, devices can be mounted in the top left or top right of the machines. Always ensure that ergonomic requirements are met and that all responsible parties are in agreement on the installation location before drilling.

Once an installation location is chosen, machines can be prepped for drilling and mounting. Depending on the dexterity of the installer and the size of the machine, front panels may or may not need to be removed. Note that, to remove the front panel of these machines, the doors must also be removed. Machines roughly 40lb. and larger do not absolutely require front panels be removed, though this is best practice and is Cents' recommendation.

Dryers

ALWAYS ENSURE DRYER TAPE IS USED

There are minor differences between stacked and single dryers. Follow the relevant guide below. For general device mounting instructions, see the Penny General Guide.

Stacked Dryers

Note: only one device is used per each Dexter stack.

There is only one reasonable mounting location for devices on Dexter stacked dryers due to the location of the main machine control board. See the image below:

As for location specifics, note that the central hole of the Penny should be outside of the outer drum guard, roughly in the green square shown below. The harness may route where the orange line is shown. Keep penetrations on the machine panel away from the red area.

Note that devices should be mounted sufficiently low so as to clear the movement of the adjacent door, as shown in the image below:

Single Dryers

Depending on machine size and owner preference, devices can be mounted on the top panel either directly to the right of the control board, or on the main machine front panel near the coin vault. Always ensure that ergonomic requirements are met and that all responsible parties are in agreement on the installation location before drilling.

Once an installation location is chosen, machines can be prepped for drilling and mounting. Depending on the dexterity of the installer and the size of the machine, front panels may or may not need to be removed. Note that, to remove the front panel of these machines, the doors must also be removed. Machines roughly 40lb. and larger do not absolutely require front panels be removed, though this is best practice and is Cents' recommendation.

Consult the general guide for installation specifics.

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

  1. For this machine type, copy the settings as shown above:

    1. Washer

    2. Device Number: Input the machine number according to the store's numbering convention.

    3. Short device Name: This identifier will prepend each credit card transaction unique ID. Most commonly users prepend the number with "W".

    4. Choose Machine Type: SERIAL

    5. Choose Serial Type: DEXTER

    6. Price in Dollars: Ignore

    7. Minutes per Quarter: Ignore

  2. 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

  1. For this machine type, copy the settings as shown above:

    1. Dryer

    2. Device Number: Input the machine number according to the store's numbering convention. If the store names each machine pocket, it is acceptable to name the machine with both numbers.

    3. Short device Name: This identifier will prepend each credit card transaction unique ID. Most commonly users prepend the number with "D".

    4. Choose Machine Type: SERIAL

    5. Choose Serial Type: DEXTER

    6. Price in Dollars: Ignore

    7. Minutes per Quarter: Ignore

  2. 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

These machines do not require reprogramming for the successful installation of Cents devices.
