Additional Information

MEI knows note acceptors. Since developing the world’s first electronic, non-contact note acceptor, MEI products are relied upon for more than two billion transactions per week in over 100 countries. Perhaps no other MEI product so ideally serves customer needs as well as the MEI SC Advance. Evolved from the winning CASHFLOW SC note acceptor, SC Advance applies the latest technology and customer feedback to make a great product even better and redefine game performance once again. SC Advance features enhanced recognition technology, faster note-to-note speed, improved barcode recognition and increased capacity to accept up to 100 different currencies and denominations. It also has the industry’s best first-time acceptance rate for valid street-grade notes, including those that are damp, crinkled or torn. Ultimately, the true measure of note acceptor performance is in the amount of revenue it pulls in by driving the player experience. By minimizing wear components and note jams and maximizing the acceptance of legal currency, SC Advance increases game uptime and virtually eliminates the frustration associated with repeated note rejections. Now players can wait less and play more—rewarding an investment in MEI SC Advance with unparalleled returns.

Advanced Acceptance and Security:

A series of features contribute to a higher overall acceptance rate for legal notes and barcoded tickets while increasing security against fraud.
■ New recognition system provides a second barcode sensor to improve global ticket acceptance rates and offer 4-way ticket acceptance.
■ Full spectral analysis uses multiple wavelengths of light to look all the way through the note and validate its authenticity.
■ Advanced recognition algorithms facilitate the industry’s highest acceptance rates—even if the notes have been worn or damaged.
■ Fastest resolution to disputes with a window revealing the value of the last note stacked in the cashbox.

Exceptional Note Handling:

Early rejects are virtually eliminated by the attempt to accept all notes at first pass.
■ Corrective note transport system minimizes skew and offset in the acceptor head to prevent jams and unnecessary rejections.
■ Refined plastic molding techniques prevent obstructive flaws along the note path to avoid snags.
■ Sealed note path protects acceptor head from fluid and dust— significantly reducing the risk of jams.
