Chard Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 On the National 167 you must turn on the CC feature on the control board. I think it is a setting that sets CC to MDB. Download the manual for the National 167 online and familiarize yourself with how to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngryChris Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Sometimes, the issue is that you need to have components connected in the right order. I don't know if that applies here but it's really easy to switch the validator with the CC reader (with power off, of course) to see if that works.

winning123 Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Ran into the same problem with Nayax. Some techs are better than others at helping you through the problem. When I run into this situation with nayax readers I simply unplug the machine for 10 seconds then re plug it. Somehow it gets the reader to communicate with the machine. In the case of your Crane 167, Chard is correct. You gotta enable the MDB card reader setting. I ran into the same situation also. Good luck!

Anacapa Vending Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Press ' machine configuration' then scrolldown till you see 'no rereader' press 'edit' till you see 'mdb card reader' then you're good to go. Has nothing to do with Nayax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacapa Vending Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 The vendo probably needs a newer eprom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZVendor Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 What is the signal strength (RSSI)? You may not have a strong enough signal and if you plugged the antenna in after powering it up you may have blown the card reader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdecrist Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Hey @golpher MICHAUD were you ever able to fix this? I am having the same issue now. It’s turning on and off throughout the days. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
