10.5 Card Reader
The card reader may be used with the Credit option or just for fleet cards and pass cards.
10.5.1 Cleaning the Card Reader
The internal card reader sensing devices accumulate dirt over time. As this happens, the credit card reader
acceptance rate will begin to decline.
It is best to clean your card reader using card reader cleaning cards. These cleaning cards may be
purchased directly from your distributor or from the manufacturer of the cleaner cards. The cleaner cards
are Unitec stock #MS2031 and can also be purchased from Clean Team by calling 1-800-888-8830.
For the Panasonic card reader, insert and remove the cleaning card into and out of the card reader several
times using both sides of the cleaning card because the Panasonic card reader can read the magnetic
stripes from either side of the reader.
10.6 Coin Acceptor
The IDX coin acceptor allows the Sentinel to accept U.S. quarters, dollar coins and up to four different bi-
metal tokens.
10.6.1 Coin Acceptor Cleaning and Maintenance
Check the coin-accepting system for proper operation each time you remove cash from the vault.
Customers have been known to insert invalid coins, debris and bills into the coin box.
