6 The KA17 Compact Cash Drawer General The KA17 Compact Cash Drawer is distinguished by a combination of a small footprint and a large capacity. It thus harmonizes with the new generation of POS systems, which are likewise characterized by their small space requirement. The KA17 offers sophisticated operation and a high standard of security. The cash drawer opens as far as the coin compartment area. It can then be pulled out manually as far as is necessary for working. It is mounted on telescopic rails and thus moves extremely smoothly. The cash drawer can be completely removed from the housing and fitted with a lockable cover. It can then be used as a safe. The KA17 Compact Cash Drawer can be connected directly to the cash drawer interfaces of the BEETLE system families. 118 mm 340 mm 366,5 mm GB - 3

8 Available variants The following variants are available: Standard version The standard version is supplied without the lock and without a cover for the trays.

This variant is supplied with a lockable security cover. Version with lock (30 tumbler arrangements) The drawer of this model can be opened either via the user software or via a mechanical lock with up to 30 tumbler arrangements. The variant is supplied with a lockable security cover. In the versions with a lock, the security cover can be accommodated inside the housing of the cash drawer to save space. GB - 5

9 Setting up the Compact Cash Drawer The cash drawer must be bolted tightly to the checkout desk beforehand, to prevent it from falling over when it is opened. The cashier table must be on a flat level surface. Emergency opening: If absolutely necessary (e.g. in the event of a power fault), you can open the cash drawer by inserting a screwdriver in a small opening in the base plate from below. For this feature to be used, there must be an opening in the desktop through which a tool can be inserted for releasing the cash drawer. The necessary openings are shown on the drawing in the Appendix. You can then position the POS system on the cash drawer. The optimized design allows the complete POS workstation to be used in situations where space is limited. The money compartments The money compartments are arranged in two layers. There are eight coin compartments at the front of the top layer. Behind these is a tray with four adjustable bank note compartments. GB - 6

10 This tray can be moved backwards if necessary, to allow access to the bottom layer, which is also subdivided into two sections. In the back half of the bottom layer are two additional bank note compartments and one compartment for rolls of coins. The front half of the bottom layer contains two compartments for cheques, correct receipts and incorrect receipts. Since there are two slots in the front of the cash drawer, the cheques, correct receipts and incorrect receipts can be deposited in the compartments easily, without having to open the drawer. GB - 7

11 Replacing the top bank note tray To replace the bank note compartment, slide it out as far as the end of the drawer. Then grasp underneath the spring catches on both sides, press them upwards and at the same time slide the bank note tray backwards out of the drawer. To install the new tray, simply slide it in until the spring catches click into place. This procedure can be made easier by taking the cash drawer out of the housing and removing the coin compartments. Replacing the pressure plates and adjusting the bank note partitions Raise the pressure plates and grasp underneath the bracket. Press the spring catches upwards on both sides and pull the bracket forwards. You cannowmovethepressureplatessidewaystoremoveandinstallthem. The bank note partitions can then be released and removed from above. Move them to the desired position; insert the back first, then press the front gently to lock them in. The bracket can be refitted by pressing it down firmly and sliding it back until the spring catches on the sides click into place. It is easier to remove the bank note partitions and fit the bracket if you press the side panels of the bank note compartment gently outwards.

12 Removing the cash drawer from the housing To remove the cash drawer from the housing, open it right out beyond the resistance mechanism, as far as the end of the telescopic rails. Then raise the end of the drawer and pull it out. Finally, slide the telescopic rails completely back into the housing of the cash drawer. GB - 9

13 Installing the cash drawer in the housing To install the cash drawer, pull the two telescopic rails right out as far as the stop. Then position the cash drawer between the telescopic rails. Make sure that the entire drawer is resting on the rails and that the rails are positioned exactly on the support pins of the drawer. Pull the telescopic rails out sufficiently far for the drawer to click into place. Close the cash drawer by sliding it in beyond the resistance of the opening mechanism. GB - 10

14 Security cover Some of the cash drawer variants can be locked with a security cover after they have been removed. The security cover is located inside the housing of the cash drawer, underneath the top panel, and is accessible after the drawer has been removed. Removing the security cover To remove the security cover, press the spring shackles inwards on the two sides of the housing panels on which the cover is resting. The cover will then be released at the front and can be taken out of the housing easily. GB - 11

15 Locking the cover with the cash drawer You can then position the security cover on the cash drawer and lock it. Make sure that the lock catch of the cover is facing forwards towards the lock and that the cover is guided under the lugs at the back of the cash drawer. Turn the key clockwise to unlock the cover. Installing the security cover in the housing You can install the cover in the housing after you have removed it from the cash drawer. Hold the cover with the lock catch facing backwards and downwards towards the back panel. Then slide the cover into the housing of the cash drawer as far as it will go and press it upwards until it clicks into place at the two side panels. Make sure that the cover is correctly positioned on the spring shackles, or it may prevent the cash drawer from being opened properly. GB - 12

16 Activating the Compact Cash Drawer For the cash drawer of your POS system to be put into service, the configuration software must log it into the POS system. The cash drawer can be opened either via the user software or via the lock in the front panel (if present). This process is controlled by the software. Connection system On the back of the drawer is one 6-pin mini-din jack, which is used to connect the POS system (designation: IN). The cash drawer is supplied with power via this jack.

19 For safety reasons, the KA17 cash drawer must be secured to the chekkout desk as otherwise there is a danger of drawer tipping over when the drawer is open. The checkout desk must be level and horizontal. The securing screws must not be exceed the specified lenght in order to ensure trouble-free operation of the cash drawer! The drawer is secured at bore holes 1, 2 and 3 (see Fig. A) Bore hole 4 is used exchanging the locking unit in the case of repair. Bore hole 5 is used for emergency opening, e.g. in the case of a power failure. The bore 5 hole must only be used if emergency opening of the KA17 with a screwdriver is allowed! 1) Mark the requiered bore hole points on the checkout desk. 2) Use a drill bit of diameter 6 mm for the bore holes through the checkout desk positions 1, 2 and 3 (see Fig. A). Use a drill bit of diameter 12 mm for the bore holes at positions 4 and 5 (see Fig. A). Make sure beforehand that the emergency opening function is allowed. 3) The cash drawer is secured from below and through the checkout desk. M4 screws of lenght L are requiered for the bore holes at positions 1 and 2, whereby L = desk thickness (T) + 8 mm (see Fig. B). Treads for these screws can be found in the cash drawer. For the bore hole at position 3, and M4 screw (L = desk thickness + 5 mm) and a hexagon securing nut (M4 x 2. 2 high, DIN139 low form), which is provided, are used (see Fig. C). When screwed in, the screws must not protrude, so that they do not scrape on the cash insert. If necessary, use washers to prevent the screws protruding T 8 L L 5 Fig. B Fig. C GB - 16
