ALWAYS POWER DOWN MACHINES THROUGHOUT DEVICE INSTALLATION.

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

Penny General Guide

The NetMaster are older Alliance machines having model numbers with 7th and 8th digits of:

  • NC, NR, NX, NY, ZC, ZR, ZX, ZY

These machines will be operated in "GPIO" or "Pulse Only" mode. The Cents harness will connect to machine power, coin drop, machine coin interface, and 4 or 7-pin machine connector.

Required Materials

  1. Cents device

  2. Alliance Coin Count Harness (30-01023)

Harness Installation Steps

Washers and dryers have an identical harness installation process.

  1. Locate the main control board and locate the 4 or 7 pin connector on the control board.

  2. Locate the 7-pin connector on the Cents 30-01023 harness. Align the connector with the header on the control board such that the black wire connects to pin 1, and the side of the connector with the blue wire overhangs the header.

  3. Identify the coin drop and unplug it from the machine control board. Plug the male 3-pin connector (pink arrow) from the machine coin interface into the female 3-pin connector on the 30-01023 harness. Plug the female 3-pin connector (green arrow) from the coin drop into the male 3-pin connector on the 30-01023 harness.

  4. Identify a male 2-pin connector (orange arrow). This may be plugged in, and may be unplugged. Plug this into the female 2-pin connector on the 30-01023 harness.

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

Device Installation Steps

ALWAYS ENSURE DRYER TAPE IS USED

For device installation, the Penny General Guide as well as the Centurion/MDC guide can be referenced.

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.

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

    1. Washer/Dryer accordingly

    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: The default price the Penny will show. Dryers only, otherwise ignore

    7. Minutes per Quarter: The number of minutes that $0.25 buys you on this machine. Dryers only, otherwise 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

NetMaster machines must have the correct pulse settings at the machine level. The process below outlines the reprogramming process.

  1. Enter the programming menu by simultaneously pressing LOW TEMP and MED TEMP

  2. Navigate to ProG using the LOW TEMP button. Press START to enter this menu.

  3. Navigate to the "Start Pulse Mode" menu. Press START to enter this menu. The location varies by machine type:

    1. For FLW, this is menu 60

    2. For Washer-Extractors, this is menu 124

    3. For Tumblers, this is menu 65

  4. Press the LOW TEMP button until 192 appears. Press START to save this entry.

  5. Exit the programming menu by pressing LOW TEMP and MED TEMP together two more times
