X-Changer Connections

  1. Connect both the networking hubs together by using the supplied (Green) 25-foot networking cable. Make sure both ends of the networking cable are labeled "To X-Changer A" or "To X-Changer B", etc.

  2. Connect the C-1036 15-pin cross-over cable to the “TO OTHER VALUE CENTER” port on the front of the control head. Connect the C-1018-15V cable to the 15VDC port on the front of the control head. Run both cables to the other X-Changer and connect to the corresponding ports.

    BE CAREFUL NOT TO WIRE THE 5 VOLT ON 1 CABINET TO THE 15 VOLT CONNECTOR IN THE OTHER CABINET

  3. Insert a minimum of 25 Laundry Cards into the card dispenser in X-Changer A. The colored side of the cards must be facing DOWN, barcode side UP. The bar code end of the card must be closest to the front panel. Load cards as pictured:


  4. On X-Changer A, Connect the card reader home run lines to the appropriate port on the Control Head. There are up to 5 lines labeled 0 through 4, make sure the cables are labeled. Leave X-Changer B unplugged at this time.

  5. Verify that all readers have power. If any readers are blank, check the lines to ensure they are correctly wired.

  6. If the readers are dim half way down the line, the home run line may be too long and should be shortened where possible.
