FIELD SERVICE
MANUAL
This section is one part of a complete manual set: typically, a field service engineer
who is maintaining the product would use this section.
This section contains the essential information that the field engineer needs to clean,
maintain and fault find an NV11 validator that is installed in a host machine.
The NV11 validator has been designed to minimise any problems or performance
variations over time. This has been achieved by careful hardware and software
design; this attention to the design means there is very little user maintenance
required.
2.1 Cleaning
The NV11 validator has been designed in a way to prevent damage and airborne
contamination reaching the optical sensors; however, depending upon the
environment the NV11 may require occasional cleaning or belt changing.

Examine the note paths, lozenge and note stacker for any dirt or debris, and carefully
clear and wipe the surfaces of the note paths and lozenge with a soft lint free cloth
that has been dampened with a water and mild detergent solution (i.e. household
washing up liquid.) - be very careful when cleaning around the sensor lenses and
make sure they are clean and dry before closing the cover and restarting the unit. Do
not try to polish the sensor lenses – if a lens is badly scratched, contact ITL technical
support for advice.
Also check that the note stacker and cash box spring plate are not jammed.
Cleaning the belts is a simple operation. Ensure the validator is enabled (i.e. bezel
lights are illuminated), then remove the bezel:
Locating pins
Insert a piece of
paper (which is
narrower than the
width between the
two belts) in the
centre of the note
path to activate
the drive motor
Repeat this procedure until all dust and debris has been removed from both belts.
Finally, use a DRY lint free cloth to remove any excess moisture and refit the bezel.
The bezel is refitted by pushing the bezel back onto the locating pins and sliding
backwards until all six pins are engaged in the slots. The locking arms will then spring
back and locate into the bezel.
If the belts are worn or damaged, they should be replaced. This is a simple
procedure, and is carried out as follows:
Remove and
Lozenge
place the lozenge
on a clean dry
surface
Reassemble and
close the unit
The NV11 validator has inbuilt fault detection facilities. If there is a configuration or
other error either the Note Float module status LED, or the NV9USB validator head
front bezel will flash in a particular sequence; a summary of the Flash Codes for both

ITL SOFTWARE
SUPPORT GUIDE
If you do not have the PiPS software on CD, you can easily download it from the
Innovative Technology website. Visit www.innovative-technology.co.uk, and select
‘Software Download’ from the ‘Support’ tab:
Clicking this link will take you to the software download page. To download any files
you must log in as a registered user – if you have not already registered this is a very
quick process; just click the ‘create an account’ link and follow the on-screen
instructions.
In this case, we want to download the PiPS software, so we click on the padlock icon
opposite the ‘SMART PIPS (Pay In Pay Out System)’ filename:
After clicking the link, a file download dialog box will appear – choose the option to
save the file:
You can save the file anywhere that is convenient, as long as you can remember
where it is when you want to install the software.
After choosing where to save the file, a file transfer dialog box will appear showing
the progress of the file download:
After downloading the Validator Manager software, you will also need to download the
Banknote Validator (BV) Interface drivers – two versions are available (32 bit and 64
bit) so choose the correct type for your operating system. Again, remember where
you saved the file.
Both files are provided in a ‘zipped’ (compressed) form – you will need to extract the
files from the zipped file before you can install the software or driver. Any version of
Windows from Windows 98 onwards can open zipped files; or you may want to use a
third party software tool such as Winzip or WinRAR.
Extract the files to a convenient location – this might be an existing folder, or you may
want to save them into a new folder.
In this example, the BV Interface driver files are being saved into a folder called
‘Drivers’ on the computers C: drive.
There are several ways to communicate with the NV11 validator, which include using
a direct connection from computer to validator with a CN392 validator to USB cable, or
by using a special interface unit called a DA2. Use of the DA2 is not covered here –
please refer to ITL Document number GA338-2 for more information. In this manual
we will be using the USB connection method. The connector needed to set up and
interface the NV11 validator is easily accessible on the side of the unit:
Interface
Connector
To use a USB connection with the NV11, a USB cable fitted with a 16 way connector
on one end (ITL Part Number CN392) should be used. The CN392 cable fits into the
16 way connector and allows high speed programming and serial communications
when used in SSP and ccTalk modes. When using the USB connection, power must be
supplied to the NV11 using the red and black power leads on the CN392 cable.

Before connecting the USB cable to the computer, make sure that the CN392 cable is
connected to the validator and that the unit is powered up. Once you have carried out
these steps, plug the USB cable into the computer.
A ‘Found New Hardware’ wizard should then start to guide you through the installation
process (this first screen is not always shown on some computers):
Information
Please make sure that you are using the V2 drivers
Only use V2 drivers for the installation.
The next dialog box will ask you where to search for the drivers:
You may see a warning dialog saying that the drivers have not passed Windows logo
testing – you can ignore this warning. Just click the ‘Continue Anyway’ button.
After completing the driver installation you can check that the communications port
has been installed correctly.
Open Windows Device Manager, and click on the Plus symbol (+) next to the ‘Ports’
entry. This will expand the list of installed communications ports. You should see an
entry for an ‘ITL BV Serial V2’ port as shown here:
The actual communications port number (in our example COM5) may vary depending
on your particular computer configuration.
Now the drivers have been correctly installed you can install the Validator Manager
software – this is covered next.
Installing the PiPS software is very straightforward. Find the PiPS installation file you
downloaded earlier, extract the installation file from the zipped file and double click
the file (it has an .msi extension) – this will start the installation process:
You can choose where you would like to install the software, or just accept the default
location (as shown above). Clicking on the ‘Next’ button will then ask you to confirm
the installation:
Once the installation is complete, you will have a new program group called ‘ITL
Smart Tools’ in the Windows Start Menu, similar to the one shown here:
You can run the PiPS software by clicking the ‘Pay-in Pay-Out system’ menu entry;
however, before you can use the PiPS software with an NV11 you will need to make
sure that you have installed the BV interface drivers (as described earlier).
The PiPS software is launched by clicking the ‘Pay-in Pay-out system’ entry in the ‘ITL
Smart Tools’ menu group.
Make sure that the NV11 is powered up and the USB cable is connected before going
any further.
Once the NV11 is connected, there are two ways to start the program operation:
Click the ‘Start-up’ icon Click ‘Utilities’, then ‘Run PIPS System’
Once the NV11 unit has been found, two windows will appear on the screen:
More details of the program options and operations that can be carried out will be
covered in the next subsection.
The settings and options for the NV11 vary depending whether the system is in the
'Run' or the 'Halt' state – generally the system will need to be halted before any
changes to setup options can be made. Pay in/pay out operations are only available
when in ‘Run’ state.
Halt State
The various settings and options can be accessed from a right click when the mouse
cursor is over any of the system device entries:
Set Route To set the pay in route for inserted bank notes to either
Cashbox or Note Float module, select the desired

The NV11 is a LIFO (Last In First Out) system. This means that only the last note in
the Note Float module is available to be paid out or moved to the stacker. Any value
note can be routed into the Note Float module using the ‘Set Routing’ command. It is
recommended that only one denomination of the chosen currency is stored in the
Note Float module.
The NV11 validator leaves the factory preset to at least one currency and dataset so
that it is ready for immediate installation. The NV11 validator works with any NV9USB
currency dataset created by Innovative Technology Ltd - datasets can be downloaded
from the Support section of the ITL website.

Full details on programming the NV11 validator using software can be found in
Section 3 of this manual set (ITL Software Support Guide).
It is not possible to program the NV11 by the use of a configuration card as this
method of programming is not yet implemented.
The NV11 validator is a device that can accept, validate and store 300 or 600 bank
notes of mixed denominations, and works with any NV9USB currency dataset created
by Innovative Technology Ltd.
Validated bank notes are stored in the NV11’s cashbox, and bank notes accepted by
the validator are not visible once inside the unit and can only be taken out of the
cashbox manually.
The NV11 validator has inbuilt fault detection facilities. If there is a configuration or
other error either the Note Float module status LED, or the NV9USB validator head
front bezel will flash in a particular sequence; a summary of the Flash Codes for both
units is shown below:

Ideally, you should also remove the Note Float module prior to cleaning the sensors -
removal is a very straightforward task:
Front sensors
Optical sensor
Start sensor
Rear sensor
Optical sensor
Examine the note paths, lozenge and note stacker for any dirt or debris, and carefully
clear and wipe the surfaces of the note paths and lozenge with a soft lint free cloth
that has been dampened with a water and mild detergent solution (i.e. household
washing up liquid.) - be very careful when cleaning around the sensor lenses and
make sure they are clean and dry before closing the cover and restarting the unit. Do
not try to polish the sensor lenses – if a lens is badly scratched, contact ITL technical
support for advice.
Also check that the note stacker and cash box spring plate are not jammed.
Cleaning the belts is a simple operation. Ensure the validator is enabled (i.e. bezel
lights are illuminated), then remove the bezel:
Locating pins
Insert a piece of
paper (which is
narrower than the
width between the
two belts) in the
centre of the note
path to activate
the drive motor
Repeat this procedure until all dust and debris has been removed from both belts.
Finally, use a DRY lint free cloth to remove any excess moisture and refit the bezel.
The bezel is refitted by pushing the bezel back onto the locating pins and sliding
backwards until all six pins are engaged in the slots. The locking arms will then spring
back and locate into the bezel.
If the belts are worn or damaged, they should be replaced. This is a simple
procedure, and is carried out as follows:
Reassemble and
close the unit
It is unlikely that you will need to manually remove notes from the Note Float module,
but there may be occasions where this needs to be done. Depending on the situation,
there are two methods that can be used.
Transport Error:
If the Note Float module status LED is flashing once every second, this indicates a
note transport error. To correct the problem, follow the following steps.
Manual Emptying:
In the unlikely event that you need to remove all the bank notes from the Note Float
module, this can be done following the steps below (after removing the Note Float
module from the validator head as detailed previously). There is a special cross point
tool (ITL part number PM979) used to manually operate the module’s transport
mechanism – please do not use any other tool as you may damage the mechanism.
After removing all the bank notes, close the rear cover firmly, place the cross point
tool back in the stowage position and refit the module onto the validator.
After removing bank notes manually, an ‘EMPTY’ command should be run when the
unit is powered back up.
Re-Initialisation
The NV11 validator has an in-built self-calibration system that keeps the optical
sensors in optimum operating condition. However if the NV11 is disassembled for any
reason it also will need to be re-initialised - re-initialisation can only be carried out by
ITL’s technical support team.
NOTE: If required, IGES 3D models are available on request from ITL technical support.

SOFTWARE
IMPLEMENTATION
GUIDE
The NV11 validator can use two different communication protocols - SSP/eSSP and
ccTalk.
Encrypted Smiley® Secure Protocol (eSSP) is an enhancement of SSP. eSSP uses the
same 16 bit CRC checksums on all packets as SSP, but also uses a Diffie-Hellman key
exchange to allow the host machine and validator to jointly establish a shared secret
key over an insecure communications channel. The encryption algorithm used is AES
with a 128-bit key; this provides a very high level of security.
The recommended communication protocol for the NV11 validator is eSSP, as this
provides the highest level of data transfer security. A ccTalk interface protocol is also
available.
For detailed information and the full protocol specifications please read the following
documents, which can be downloaded from the Innovative Technology Ltd website
(www.innovative-technology.co.uk):
Summaries of the NV11 validator socket connections for the supported interfaces are
shown below:
It is not possible to program the NV11 by the use of a configuration card as this

NV11 validator using software can be found in Section 3 of this manual set (ITL

Encrypted Smiley® Secure Protocol (eSSP) is an enhancement of SSP. eSSP uses the

exchange to allow the host machine and validator to jointly establish a shared secret
key over an insecure communications channel. The encryption algorithm used is AES
with a 128-bit key; this provides a very high level of security.
The encryption of the SSP protocol ensures superior protection and reliability of the
data, which is transferred between validator and host machine. The encryption key is
divided into two parts:
The lower 64 bits are fixed and specified by the machine manufacturer allowing
control of which devices are used in their machines.
The higher 64 bits are securely negotiated by the slave and host at power up,
ensuring each machine and each session are using different keys.
The interface uses a master-slave model; the host machine is the master and the
peripherals (note acceptor, coin acceptor or coin hopper) are the slaves. Data transfer
is over a multi-drop bus using clock asynchronous serial transmission with simple
open collector drivers. Each SSP device of a particular type has a unique serial
number; this number is used to validate each device in the direction of credit transfer
before transactions can take place.
Information
When communicating with the NV11 validator, poll
200 ms command spacing commands should be sent at least 200 ms apart.

the Note Float module that do not match the dataset that is installed in the validator.
Notes:
Action Comments
Reset: Single byte command, causes the slave to reset
Host Protocol Version: Dual byte command, the first byte is the command; the
second byte is the version of the protocol that is
implemented on the host.
Poll: Single byte command, no action taken except to report
latest events.
Get Serial Number: Single byte command, used to request the slave serial
number. Returns 4-byte long integer.
Sync: Single byte command, which will reset the validator to
expect the next sequence ID to be 0.
Disable: Single byte command, the peripheral will switch to its
disabled state, it will not execute any more commands or
perform any actions until enabled, any poll commands
will report disabled.
Enable: Single byte command, the peripheral will return to
service.
Manufacturers This command allows the manufacturer of a peripheral to
Extension: send commands specific to their unit
Enable Payout Device: Two-byte command, the first byte is the command and
the second enables several different options. Unused bits
should be 0.
Disable Payout Device: Single-byte command. All accepted notes will be routed
to the stacker and payout commands will not be
accepted.
Set Routing: The first byte is the command. The second byte is the
selected route, and the remaining bytes are the four-
byte value or single byte channel number (depending on
the reporting type selected) of the note that the route
should be applied to. By default all note values are
stacked. For protocol version 6, three extra country code
bytes are sent
Empty: Single byte command, this will cause all notes to be sent
to the stacker for removal.
Get Note Positions: Single byte command, this will return the number of
notes in the Note Float module and the value in each
position. The first note in the table is the first note that
was paid into the Note Float module - the Note Float
module is a LIFO system, so the note that is last in the
table is the only one that is available to be paid out or
moved into the stacker.
Action Comments
Payout Note: This is a single byte command. The Note Float module
will pay out the last note that was stored. This is the
note that is in the highest position in the table returned
by the Get Note Positions Command. If the payout is
possible the Note Float will reply with the generic
response ‘OK’.
Stack Note: This is a single byte command. The Note Float module
will stack the last note that was stored. This is the note
that is in the highest position in the table returned by the
Get Note Positions Command. If the stack operation is
possible the Note Float will reply with the generic
response ‘OK’.
Set Value Reporting Two-byte command. This will set the method of
Type: reporting values of notes. There are two options, by a
four-byte value of the note or by the channel number of
the value from the banknote validator. If the channel
number is used then the actual value must be
determined using the data from the Validator command
Unit Data. The default operation is by 4-byte value.
SMART empty: Empties the Note Float module of notes, maintaining a
count of value emptied. The note counters will be set to
0 after running this command. Use ‘cashbox payout
operation data’ command to retrieve a breakdown of the
denominations routed to the cashbox through this
operation.
Cashbox Payout This command can be sent at the end of a SMART
Operation Data: Empty, float or dispense operation. Returns the amount
emptied to cashbox from the Note Float in the last
dispense, float or empty command. The quantity of
denominations in the response is sent as a 2 byte little
endian array; the note values as 4-byte little endian
array and the country code as a 3-byte ASCII array. Each
denomination in the dataset will be reported, even if 0
notes of that denomination are emptied.

Command Not Known: Returned when an invalid command is received by a
peripheral.
Wrong Number Of A command was received by a peripheral, but an incorrect
Parameters: number of parameters were received.
Action Comments
Dispensing: Single-byte response indicating that a dispense operation
is in progress. The four-byte value of the note or the
single byte channel number is reported, depending on the
reporting type set. This value will be 0 until the note has
passed out of the Note Float module and into a payable
position in the validator.
Dispensed: Response that indicates when the payout has finished a
dispense operation; The four-byte value of the note or the
single byte channel number is reported, depending on the
reporting type set.
Jammed: Five byte response that indicates that the payout is
jammed; this is reported until it is un-jammed or reset. It
will also become disabled. The value or channel number of
the note being dispensed is also reported.
Incomplete Payout: This event is given when the payout starts up if a payout
or float operation was in progress when the power was
removed. The first four bytes after the event code are the
value that was dispensed; the next four are the value that
was originally requested.
Emptying: This event is given while the payout is being emptied of
notes into the cashbox by the EMPTY command.
Empty: This event is given at the end of the empty process.
Note Stored in This event is given when notes paid in to the payout
Payout: system are routed to the payout store. For compatibility
with the SMART Payout the value of the note is not
reported. However if the Note Float is enabled with the
option flag VALUE_ON_STORED set, then the value of the
note will be reported (see enable payout device
command).
Note Transferred to This event is given when a note has successfully been
Stacker: moved from the Note Float and stacked in the cash box.
During the process the Stacking event will be given.
Note Float Removed: This event is reported when the Note Float module is
physically disconnected from the validator while the power
is on.
Note Float Attached: This event is reported when the Note Float module is
physically attached to the validator while the power is on.
The validator and Note Float module will then reset.
Note In Bezel Hold: This event is reported when the Dispensing note is held in
the bezel waiting for the user to remove it.
Action Comments
Device Full: This event is reported when the Note Float has reached its
limit of stored notes. This event will be reported until a
note is paid out or stacked.
Channel Disable: Indicates all note channels have been inhibited and as
such, the unit is disabled. Only reported if using protocol
version 7 and above.
Here is an example of the communication between host and slave. Both the typical
commands from the host and responses from the validator are detailed.
Full support is available from ITL and local support offices for implementing eSSP -
this support includes libraries and example applications. When requesting this
information, please specify your preferred language(s) and operating system.
5.4 ccTalk
This section should be read in conjunction with the full ccTalk specification, which can
be downloaded from the internet (www.cctalk.org).
Monetary Values
Values are represented as 32 bit unsigned integers (4 bytes) and in the lowest value
of currency. For example:
When sending or receiving a value the least significant byte is sent first. So in this
example [0x88] [0x13] [0x00] [0x00] will be sent.
Each type of note is identified by its value and represented using the standard format
outlined above. As an example, the values for Euro notes are:
Communications Format
Field Description
Dst Destination Address (for a note validator, 40 [0x28])
Len Number of data bytes in the message
Header Command
Data Data attached to Header, specified by Len (1-N)
CRC [Dst] + [Len] + [Header] + [Data1] + … + calculated value of CRC16
against Data N
ACK message:
NAK message:
BUSY message:
Response:
Field Description
Dst Destination Address (for a note validator, 40 [0x28])
Len Number of data bytes in the message
Header Reply message [00]
Data Data attached to Header, specified by Len (1-N)
CRC [Dst] + [Len] + [Header] + [Data1] + … + calculated value of CRC16
against Data N.
To hold a note in the escrow position when using SSP, the POLL command should be
replaced with the HOLD command after NOTE READ > 0 for as long as the note is to
be held in escrow.
A POLL command will then accept the note; the REJECT command will return the note
to the customer
