Host Machine Interface
The Multi Drop Bus is an industry standard interface for vending machines. If your machine supports an MDB - Cashless Device, then this will require little effort to reach a working solution, provided that the MDB standard is correctly implemented in your machine.
An advantage of MDB is that the interface also supplies power to the terminal, requiring no additional power supply.
A P6X Terminal can be combined with the VendBox to enable "Executive Node" functionality. The VendBox is sold separately from the terminal and acts as a converter between Executive and MDB.
A configurable potential free pulse contact is available to signal your application that a payment transaction was successfully processed.
In addition, an input port is available to enable/disable the terminal, if for example the machine is out of order.
Although a Potential free interface is widely used, there is no standardization, and requires attention to electrical details before it can be used.
Remote Terminal Protocol, is used to control the terminal functionality from anywhere on a LAN, or through USB, directly from your software application.
This message based protocol provides basic functionality for machine to payment terminal communication, over an RS232 connection.
This message based protocol is used in certain coffee machines, and communicates over RS232.
Internet Connection
A P6X Terminal can be connected to a LAN, through its onboard Ethernet port, and connect to the Internet through the LAN.
In case there is no access to a LAN network a 3G/HSPA MODEM is optionally available
Terminal Configuration
These files contain the settings that determine the certified terminal configuration and cannot be modified without consulting the manufacturer.
These settings need to be configured for each mode in which the terminal is operating, to allow communication with the Host Machine and payment service provider. Each chapter gives an overview of the related settings.
The SAM module contains cryptographic key material that is needed to set up a secure connection, and authenticate the terminal, with the payment service provider.
A 3G/HSPA MODEM option requires a data SIM with access to mobile internet services. A SIM card can be provided by either your local mobile internet provider or by Payter.
A Host machine is always responsible for initiating a payment on the terminal, the only exception is Auto Scan mode. This chapter describes how a payment is performed by a user and how to interpret the feedback that is given by the terminal.
Accepted Card Types| Card Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Contactless Card/ Mobile phones | When prompted to do so, tap the Card or Phone with NFC on the Contactless Symbol on the front of the terminal. Keep the Card in place until the terminal indicates that the card can be removed. |
| Contact Chip Card | Insert the Chip Card in the illuminated card slot. Do not remove the card until you are prompted to do so. |
| Magnetic Stripe Card | The user can swipe a magnetic stripe card through the swipe slot as indicated on the P68 terminal. |

MDB ModeThe Multi Drop Bus is an industry standard interface for vending machines. If your machine supports an MDB - Cashless Device, then this will require little effort to reach a working solution, provided that the MDB standard is correctly implemented in your machine.
An advantage of MDB is that the interface also supplies power to the terminal, requiring no additional power supply.
Connect the P6X terminal to the VMC using the supplied MDB Cable. Power up the vending machine, the terminal should power up as well. After boot-up has completed the terminal should automatically register with the VMC.
For machines supporting MDB feature level 3 "always idle mode," users can directly select a product to initiate a vend cycle.
If "always idle mode" is not supported, users must press the "Start Button" on the terminal before selecting a product.
After product selection, users are prompted to pay.
Upon successful payment, the product is dispensed. If the vend is unsuccessful, most machines automatically cancel the payment, but this depends on the vending machine's features.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| MDB Level | [1,3] determines the capability level reported to the vending machine. Should be left at 3 unless the terminal and vending machine do not register correctly. |
| Session Timeout | Indicates the time period, in ms, for selecting a product after the START button is pressed. Note this is only applicable when not in "always idle" mode. |
| Session Amount | The amount, in cents, that the Terminal provides as Credit to the vending machine at the start of a session. Note this is only applicable when not in "always idle" mode. |
Executive ModeA P6X Terminal can be combined with the VendBox to enable "Executive Node" functionality. The VendBox is sold separately from the terminal and acts as a converter between Executive and MDB.
Support for the MDB comes standard with the Payter terminal in case the Vending Machine only supports the Executive protocol an additional converter (Payter VendBox) is required which can be placed in between the terminal and the Vending Machine.
Connects the Executive vending protocol with the MDB protocol.
Designed for use with Payter contactless terminals.
Acts as the Executive Master when connected to an Executive vending machine, delegating commands to the Vending Machine Controller (VMC).
Functions as an MDB VMC, sending vend requests to the MDB cashless device on the MDB bus.
Same as MDB Mode
Potential Free Pulse Contact (Autoscan mode)A configurable potential free pulse contact is available to signal your application that a payment transaction was successfully processed. In addition, an input port is available to enable/disable the terminal, if for example the machine is out of order. Although a Potential free interface is widely used, there is no standardization, and requires attention to electrical details before it can be used.
Proper attention to electrical details is required for integration.
Polarity, pulse width, and pulses per transaction can be configured.
For detailed specifications, request the "Pulse I/O" documentation from your supplier.
Documentation includes electrical properties and essential settings for device compatibility.
The terminal starts scanning for cards upon power-up.
Each successful transaction triggers a pulse for the specified amount.
The host machine must capture all pulses sent by the terminal.
If the host machine cannot capture pulses or deliver the service, disable the terminal by:
Re-enable the terminal once the host machine is functional to continue operations.
