MEI will be introducing the new SC Advance at G2E featuring benefits that will further raise the bar of performance expectations in themetrics thatmatter most – driving improvements in both the player experience and operator profitability. This is the next generation product of CASHFLOWSC which changed casino operators’ expectations of bill validators with over onemillion units produced.
Increased value created by SC Advance: • an improved recognition system, which provides proactive security by using transmissive sensors to see through notes inmultiple wavelengths.
• faster bill-to-bill speed, which upgrades the player experience and speeds up transactions to expand throughput.
• expandedmemory, which limits part numbers and submissions by allowingmore notes to be recognised in a specific release of firmware.
• comprehensive barcode recognition, which processes barcode coupons in all four directions and improves acceptance onmulti-width currencies.
• upgrade to USB 2.0, which speeds up communications with the hostmachine and even potentially expands functionality.
Because the enhancements are localised to the acceptor head, SC Advance can work hand-in-hand with legacy CASHFLOWSC units already in the field. This capability is facilitated by intelligent support tools that will be able to sense the product version and provide the appropriate software.
SC Advance not only is compatible with previous versions, but also with product extensions that have expanded the reach of bill acceptors fromthe slot machine to the entire cashmanagement process. EASITRAX Soft Count, as an example, has changed rapidly the expectations for what a bill acceptor can offer – building an installed base over 50,000 games in 18months by improving efficiencies associated with the cash drop process.
