The Blackboard VR4100 Vending Reader supports both swipe and contactless card technology. The
Vending Reader allows MDB vending machines to be used with the Blackboard Transaction System
(BbTS), and uses an Ethernet connection (wired or wireless) to communicate to the BbTS server.
Communication of host downloads and reader transactions use a maintained Transport Layer Security
(TLS) Secure Communication Channel to meet PCI Compliance.
The VR4100 vending Reader can be used in any vending machine that complies with the
NAMA MDB (National Automated Merchandising Association Multi-Drop Bus) interface
specification. Many vending machines manufactured today support this interface.

To mount the reader
Power down the vending machine.
Refer to the vending machine operation manual.
Prepare a 3.3" x 4.2" cut-out (slightly larger allows reader to fit easily), and then drill four
3/16" holes for mounting studs in the center locations of the slots.
See: The Vending Reader Face and Mounting Dimensions (page 1-4).
If replacing an existing bill acceptor, remove the bill acceptor.
If installing in a pre-cut opening, remove the filler plate.

READER INSTALLATION
Slide the face of the reader through the opening from the inside of the machine.
If using a mounting plate, slide it over the face of the reader from the outside of the machine.
Install four flat washers and four nuts or threaded standoffs onto the threaded studs to secure the
reader.
If installing in a non-conductive panel in the vending machine (such as a plastic front panel), a
customer supplied ground wire should be connected from one of the mounting studs to a grounded
metal part inside the machine.
Data cables are susceptible to electrical noise that can corrupt data. Avoid routing cables near
electrical equipment, including fluorescent lights, compressors, and motors.

To connect the reader cables
Connect the single connector end of the supplied MDB 'Y' cable (p/n 055-800-132) to the MDB
connector on the back of the VR4100 Reader.
Disconnect the coin mechanism MDB connector from the machine controller; remember where it was
connected.
Connect the double connector end of the supplied MDB 'Y' cable to a.) the coin mechanism MDB
connector, and b.) the machine controller MDB connector.
A 16' MDB extension cable
(VE/MDBDPCE16) is available from Blackboard if the supplied 30" cable is not long enough.
Connect one end of the supplied CAT5 network cable into the reader:
Ethernet connection (10/100Base-T): 'NET' port
The network cable is a CAT5 patch cable with RJ45 connectors on each end.
Route the network cable from the VR4100 out the back of the vending machine.
Typically this should be routed across the door hinge along a cable bundle that already crosses the
door hinge. Use wire ties to hold all wires away from any mechanically moving parts such as hinges,
the coin return lever linkage, door latch, etc.
DO NOT connect the other end of the network cable to the wall plate until reader
Configuration is complete.
Power up the vending machine.
This powers up the reader.

R EADER AUDIT
Reader Audits are implemented at cash collections for reporting collections to the BbTS. The Audit is
initiated with a Manager Card swipe or tap. The reader displays Audit messages at a slow rate for manually
recording, about 10 seconds per message. Once the entire message cycle is complete, the reader reports
the date, manager, and amount of cash transactions to BbTS and resets interval totals to zero. The BbTS
Net Sales By Location Report reports the amounts.
A Manager Card must be swiped to initialize audit counts.
Press
to advance messages at a faster pace.
Pressing
at the Cancel Message, aborts the audit -- interval totals are not reset.
Pressing
while swiping or tapping the card allows a normal transaction.
