Preventive Maintenance
(Head/Transport)
• Replace belts if frayed, slick and/or worn.
• It is important to keep the bill path, rollers and belts clean. The
sensor lenses are transparent and made of a polymer material.
Handle them with care. To clean them, we suggest using a lint-free
cloth and a mild, nonabrasive detergent, such as dish liquid soap
mixed with water.
Do Not use alcohol for cleaning

Note: JCM does not recommend - cleaning cards, cleaning pads,

or cleaning solutions of any kind.
Important Note: After wiping, inspect lenses to ensure that none
have been moved out of position, or are not flush with the path.
Cashbox Preventive Maintenance (P/M):
Do Periodic P/M on the Cashboxes to ensure proper operation. Use
compressed air via can, or air compressor to blow out paper fibers and
any other debris that may build up over time. Check the belts and all
moving parts for wear and proper positioning. If this assembly does
not operate properly, it can cause bill jams.

After completing the P/M, we recommend Calibration.

Auto-Calibration - Sensors
Description
Calibration sets a starting reference point for all optical
sensors within the unit. This can be done at the host unit or
at the work bench with just a power source.

When to Calibrate
• After the Acceptor’s components have been disassembled
for repair.
• After a sensor board has been replaced.
• Whenever Bill/Note acceptance is degraded.
• During scheduled Preventive Maintenance.
• When upgrading, downloading software.

Procedures
1. Remove Transport unit w/head.
2. Set Dip switches 5, 6, 7, & 8 to the “ON” position, all
others to the “OFF” position.
3. Connect Transport unit w/head to power source -
either host machine, or adaptive power supply.
4. Listen for activation of transport motor - forward and
reverse for up to 2 seconds, then stop - READY.
5. After inserting the calibration paper, black paper first, the
unit will carry the paper forward/
reverse several times. When the
process is complete, the unit will
return the paper.
6. Wait a few moments to allow for Part #501-000032
complete transfer of calibration data to be stored in
memory. This is indicated via the LED on the test
harness, or the bezel light on some applications with fast
blinks.
7. Unsuccessful Calibrations - Check the lenses. Re-try
calibration. If necessary, refer to Error Conditions Chart
on the next page. Additional testing/troubleshooting may
be required.
Note: When installing a new CPU, you must recalibrate.
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
Auto-Calibration
Error Conditions Chart
Look at the indicator LED connected to the test
harness, or the bezel light. If the LED blinks from 1 to
11 times at 1/2 second intervals, an error exists.
Count the number of blinks and match with the list
below. If you missed the count, it will repeat after a 1-
second pause.

WBATM - In Field
Stand-Alone Test Mode
Accomplish this function by applying power to the unit’s
Transport and Head only.

Note: Perform this test outside the game using an

extension harness, or power supply hook-up.

• Remove power.
• Prior to starting, set the Dip switches. Place Dip switches
1,2,3 & 8 in the “ON” position.
• Apply power.
• Turn Dip switch 8 “OFF.” The unit should cycle briefly.
• The unit is now ready for the test.
• Insert a known bill/note.
• The bill/note will either go completely through, or be
rejected.
• If it rejects, check calibration. Re-calibrate if necessary.
If the unit still rejects, there is a possible sensor problem,
or incorrect software version. Go to “Bill Return Tests”
page.
• If it does not take the bill/note in, check for power.

Note: While in this test mode, you can verify if the unit is
working properly.

• When the unit cycles on power up, this indicates power

and forward motor operation.
• When you insert a plain piece of paper and it is rejected,
this indicates reverse motor operation.
• When you insert various denominations of bills, and they
are accepted, this indicates the bill was successfully
matched against the characteristics of the software.

WBATM - DT-004 Downloading
Using the JCM DT-004 Download Tool
DO NOT USE the 2-pin connector for power input.
This is output power and can damage the DT-004.

1. Make sure power is applied to the DT-004 via a 3-pin connector

from the PS15-007 power supply with the adaptive harness, Part
No. 400-100067, or the power supply harness connection in the
game.

2. With the power “OFF”, be sure the 4MEG Program EPROM is

installed properly.

3. Dip switches on WBA:

Set Dip switches 6, 7, and 8 to the “ON” position, and all others to
the “Off” position.

4. Harnessing
• For WBA-10/20: Use Part No. 400-10068 (Power from game to
DT-004), Part No. 400-100069 (Data from DT-004 to WBA
unit).
Note: The PS15-007 can be used to substitute for a power source
instead of using the harness, Part No. 400-100068 at the game.
When there is an RS-232 board, disconnect the board and use
the harness, Part No. 400-100042 in conjunction with harness,
Part No. 400-100069

• For WBA-12/22: Use Part No. 400-100070 (Power from game

to DT-004), Part No. 400-100071 (Data from DT-004 to WBA
unit).
Note: The PS15-007 can be used to substitute for a power source
instead of using the harness, Part No. 400-100070 at the game.
When there is an RS-232 board, the WBA-12/22 can be flashed
through the RS-232 board using the harness, Part No. 400-
100071.

5. Turn the power switch on the DT-004 to the “ON” position. The
Power LED should light.

6. Verify the LEDs on the WBA CPU board are illuminated, and are
blinking back and forth. This indicates download mode.

(con’t)
7. To begin the download process, press the “START” button. The
“RDY” LED will begin to blink.

8. While downloading, the download status LEDs on the DT-004

will illuminate, indicating status of the download.
9. When the downloading is complete, the “OK” LED will light
and a buzzer will sound for about a second.

10.Press the “RESET” button once, then press the “VERIFY”

button once. After approximately 10 seconds, a buzzer will sound
for about a second, and the “OK” LED will illuminate.
11.Turn power on the DT-004 to the “OFF” position, remove the
harness connectors from the unit, and return the Dip switches to
their normal operating positions.

12.To repeat the process with other units, follow these instructions from
#3 through #10.

NOTE: After downloading/upgrading, recalibrate the units using the

calibration/reference paper, Part No. 501-00032 to ensure proper
operation.
