4.1 General
After installing SiteKiosk and connecting the hardware to your computer, you can create a configuration file with the SiteKiosk configuration tool. In the SiteKiosk configuration tool go to the "Payment Devices" page, select Coin+RS Credit Board from the list of available devices then click the Customize button to configure and activate your device.
The icon next to the device will turn from red to green after the device has been activated.
4.3 Configuring Support for Bills and Coins
The XML file "Coin_RS.xml" (in the folder .. \ SiteKiosk\SiteCash) contains some pre-configured values of coin currencies. You can now select the appropriate configuration from the Filter drop down box or manually enter the required currency configuration in the xml file.
Activate the checkbox for the channel relative to the amounts you want to allow in SiteKiosk.
(the function to Allow/Deny is not fully implemented, any supported values will be accepted).
Select the type and value for that channel in the Description column, i.e. 1 Dollar. This value appears after the user dialog, if no corresponding image file is specified for the unit of money.
In the Value field you can specify the amount that should credited to the customer. This is especially important if you want to accept multiple currencies since only one major currency can be displayed. For example, the main currency is Swiss Francs, but Euro coins will also be accepted, the value will then be converted accordingly.
The unit is now ready for use.
