Kiosk Device/Hardware Removal or Replacement
If changing out devices or components of the kiosk, please use the following steps as a
guide through this process. Assuming all tools needed are in place please proceed with
the build.
o save time in the future, ensure you make note of how the kiosk is built before swapping out devices
and hardware. With the printed document in hand, or computer in front you, ensure you are in a well-
lit area with easy access to components and devices, in conjunction with the appropriate tools. Each
kiosk style essentially has exact same build, with the tablet kiosk being the exception for all devices but the
credit card reader and barcode scanner.
In addition to the previous sections steps, use the following options to help you with certain different aspects
of physically installing or building parts of your kiosk:
If changing out the locks; attach locks using Loctite and wrench or socket.
If changing or replacing the barcode scanner; remove current one and mount with screws to bracket
that holds it.
If removing the barcode scanner bracket to swap out the barcode scanner, simply mount the bracket
using the nuts provided.
If changing or replacing the credit card reader, remove current one and secure the new one with the
screws that were in place.
If mounting a biometric scanner for the first time (or replacing), drill ¾” hole in side of kiosk for the
conversion kit. Place the biometric scanner in the bracket and use 1 ½” sheet metal screws to mount
to the kiosk.
If replacing the MEI Series 2000 Bill Mechanism, first disconnect the power supply. Then disconnect the
harness from computer. Once those are done, remove the four nuts holding acceptor in place. Now,
repeat the steps in reverse to finish changing out the new acceptor.
*If replacing the MEI Coin Recycler, first disconnect from the power supply. Then disconnect from the
computer. Once completed, simply lift the coin mechanism straight up and remove. Before installing
the new coin mechanism, check that the holding screw is still barely separated from bracket. Now,
repeat the steps in reverse to finish changing out the new coin mechanism.
*If replacing the Fujitsu F53 Bill Dispenser, first disconnect the power supply. Then disconnect from the
computer. Once those are done, remove the 2 screws from the front of the sliding drawer bracket and
remove the dispenser. Now, repeat the steps in reverse to finish changing out the new dispenser.
**If replacing the biometric scanner on the Microsof Tablet, simply remove the old fingerprint
scanner from the USB hub and replace with a new one.
*These are Cash-Out Kiosk only steps.
**Depending on when your tablet was ordered, you will have a fingerprint scanner located differently.

Biometric / fingerprint scanner not working
Restart the kiosk to reset the connection between the PC and the CC Reader.

are carried out correctly. Locate Biometric Device’ at the top to ensure there are no device errors
registering with Windows. Then unplug it from the computer/USB hub, wait 5 seconds, plug back in

If the LED does not turn on, remove the finger and wait for 5 seconds to allow the sensor to reset.
Then try again.
Ensure proper usage by your locations users:
o The pad is the fleshy part of the finger, located in the middle of the first segment. Be sure that
the pad (not the tip) covers as much of the sensor window as possible so that the core of their
fingerprint can be scanned. It is okay for them to place their finger at an angle. Please see
below for examples:
o Apply light pressure: Apply pressure lightly and evenly during the scanning process. Use as
much pressure needed to hold a piece of paper between their fingers. Pressing too hard may
result in a dark or blurred fingerprint.
K I O S K O P E R A T I O N S M A N U A L
18
o Keep their finger still: The LED will light up to scan their fingerprint. They need to keep the
finger in place while the fingerprint is scanned.
o Find the core of the fingerprint: The core of the fingerprint is located between the middle and
lower edge of the first segment of your finger. An easy way to ensure that the core is scanned
is to place the finger on the reader so that the first joint of the finger aligns with the bottom
edge of the sensor window.
o Problematic fingerprints: By following the above guidelines, you should be able to get
consistently good results. Sometimes, however, certain skin conditions or environments may
cause poor fingerprint images. Damp skin may cause fingerprints that are too dark or
smudged, but can be remedied by wiping fingers before input. If your finger is extremely dry,
you can safely use a moisturizing lotion before input.
Black Screen and/or Kiosk Rebooting Continuously
Check internet connection, the kiosk will reboot every 2 minutes if no internet can be located.
Make note that the screen will be black just prior to the kiosk software loading.
