Because ALIO Note’s antenna is contained within the bezel, there is no need

to run an antenna through the top of the machine.

When removing an existing antenna, follow your company’s procedure for

sealing the antenna hole.

OPERATION:

ALIO Note is fully configured for operation from the factory and once

mechanically installed onto Talos bill validator and powered it will connect to the

cellular network ready for use. Detailed information of connection status can be

viewed by pressing the red “X” on the ALIO Note display 5 times. The display will

reconfigure to indicate the status.

Once connected, “Please Tap or Swipe Card” will be displayed and the ALIO Note

is ready to accept cards for transactions.

DIAGNOSTICS:

Once ALIO is installed, you can perform basic diagnostics on the device by

pressing or holding the large button in the center of ALIO Hub:

LEDS STATUS:

ALIO Hub has an LED ring around the CPI logo that will change colors,

depending on the current state of ALIO.

TROUBLESHOOTING:

Hold ALIO Hub button for three seconds to access the driver menu, then

scroll to the alarm section to view recent issues. The steps below will also help to

confirm proper installation.

Before Installation

1. Confirm the Asset or Equipment Number and make sure you are at the correct

machine

After Installation

1. Confirm the vending machine firmware is approved by CPI and matches the

asset assigned in the vendor system

2. Confirm that ALIO powers up properly after restoring power to the vendor

Confirm Connections

1. Confirm all connections are routed to ALIO Hub and are firmly secured

2. Confirm there is only one DEX jack active in the machine (on VMC or extended)

3. Check all connections on the VMC MDB line

Regulatory:

ALIO Note, FCC ID: QP8ALIONOTEVZ (Verizon Network Operation)

ALIO Note uses radio energy to communicate vending transaction activities

to a remote host. CPI has not approved any changes or modifications to ALIO

Note. Any changes or modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the

equipment. See 47 CFR Sec. 15.21

ALIO Note complies with 47 CFR Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is

subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must

accept any interference received, including interference that may cause

undesirable operation.

Guidance – Pacemakers, Potential Interference –

Radiofrequency energy (RF) from cell phones can interact with some electronic

devices. This type of interference is called electromagnetic interference (EMI). For

10 | P a g e

this reason, FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure EMI of

implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from cell phones. This test

method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association for the

Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). This standard will allow

manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from

cell phone EMI.

The FDA continues to monitor the use of cell phones for possible interactions with

other medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, FDA will

conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

For more information reference sources for pacemakers can be found at U.S.

Products and procedures, Interference with Pacemakers and Other Medical

Devices
