This install guide goes over the detailed installation steps for an F2/F3touchscreen FasCard/FLEX reader onto an existing machine in either a high-front or top-mount position.

Note

C-5402/C-5426-BASE incompatibility

The below solutions are not compatible with previously used high-front/top mount readers or mounting bases.

Warning

Swipe Clearance Notice

For top-mount placements, CCI strongly recommends mounting the front of the top-mount bracket 1-1/4 inches from the front of the machine, to allow for card swipe clearance.

Ensure the drilled hole aligns accordingly. Mounting the top-mount bracket any further back then 1-1/4inches from the front of the machine to the edge of the reader can potentially interfere with mounting the reader to the bracket and may prevent users from being able to swipe or insert a card into the reader due to lack of clearance.

Step 1 - Drilling Preparation

  1. Select the part of the machine where the high-front or top-mount bracket will be installed. Ensure this location, whether on the chassis or a panel, is away from any existing components or exposed wiring.

    1. Mark where you may want to mount the reader with a permanent marker if needed.

  2. Whether keeping the chassis/panel intact, exposing, or removing said chassis/panel, apply some cutting oil where drilling through metal will take place.

  3. Drill the oiled section in question carefully using the tungsten carbide tipped hole cutter.


  4. With the drilled hole prepped, you are now ready to mount the reader.

Step 2 - Mounting the bracket & reader

Tip

Please choose the tab that is associated with the type of installation you are completing. 

High-front mount

In a high-front mounting solution where the FasCard reader will be angled downward toward the customer in regard to taller machines, our C-6465 bracket would be used for this install.

  1. Attach the C-6465 High Mount Bracket in its place, securing it down with a chase nipple.

  2. Mount the universal bracket to the high-front bracket with two (2) 8-32 screws and feed the harness wiring through the center. Whether choosing to feed wiring first or mounting the bracket first is no problem as longas long as the end result (pictured below) is achieved.

  3. Connect the harnesses to their appropriate locations in the back of the reader.

    1. For information about where the individual harnesses connect to, please see F2: FasCard Touchscreen Reader. 

  4. Slowly mount the reader to the corresponding bracket with the top lip catching the locking edge and carefully wedging the reader in place. Ensure no metal edges of the bracket are visible.

  5. Secure the reader with the provided T15 secure torx screws on the bottom.

    1. This may be part of the install kits or the screws used from a previous high-front solution.

      Note
      titleScrewdriver Angling

      As the reader is angled downward inhigh-front solutions, securing the reader may require a thinner secure torx screwdriver or a flex extension for the appropriate torx bit to accommodate for the angle.

  6. Only F3 FasCard readers – Remove any plastic protectors (if still present) from the touchscreen or EMV chip insert label.

Top-Mount

Warning

Swipe Clearance Notice

As stated above, only for top-mount solutions the front of the top-mount bracket 1-1/4 inches from the front of the machine, to allow for card swipe clearance.

Ensure the drilled hole aligns accordingly. Mounting the top-mount bracket any further back then 1-1/4inches from the front of the machine to the edge of the reader can potentially interfere with mounting the reader to the bracket and may prevent users from being able to swipe or insert a card into the reader due to lack of clearance.

In a top-mount solution, the process differs slightly from afront a front or high-front mounting solution. Our C-6452 bracket would be used in this orientation.

  1. Attach the top-mount bracket onto the top panel of the machine, securing down with the chase nipple. Ensure the appropriate wiring is fed through the center hole for connecting to the reader.

  2. Connect all harnesses to the rear of the touchscreen reader where required.

  3. Slowly mount the reader to the corresponding bracket with the top lip catching the locking edges (shown in red) and carefully wedge the reader in place.

    1. Aligning the reader to the top mount also secures the ground post (show in teal) to the reader.
