Step 1
To access the base compartment, the base has to be unlocked. The plastic cover can then be hinged outward, displaying the inner safe.
Step 2
Entering the correct access code into the safe lock, giving access to the cash dispenser mechanism itself:-
Looking at the interior of the door we can see the cabling to the door lock. Along with the heavy duty metalwork, needed to protect the cash dispenser.
Step 3
Looking at the exposed cash dispensing mechanism itself:-
To access the cash trays, the mechanism is unlocked by pulling a pin and rotating it in a circle:-
Until the cash dispensing tray itself is exposed, with the top tray used for storing rejected notes:-
A close up of the cash tray mechanism is shown below:-
Step 5
To access the top compartment, it is unlocked and pulled out. Displaying the controller, keyboard module, card reader and the receipt printer:-
Disassembling the above assemblies further, we can better understand their construction like the keyboard module below:-
And the printer board:-
The card reader:-
The power supply:-
Originally housed in a screened metal case is the processor module:-
The processor module runs WinCE OS, and uses the Z84C9010VSC processor. Various peripheral chips drive the printer, keyboard, screen and card reader.
