6. LED Signals
Below is a list of the main signals that the
LEDs installed in the reading head.
Red
When the reader is switched on, the Red LED lights up to signal the lack of
protocol. After a few seconds if the protocol programmed on the reader is
the same as that of the vending machine, the green LED comes on.
Otherwise if the red LED stays on, it means that there are protocol
problems.
When the protocol is operating perfectly or there are no configuration errors,
the green LED comes on. Then the reader is ready to accept the key.
When a user key is entered, if the manager code is the same as that
programmed on the reader, the yellow flashing LED (flash every second)
comes on. After a few seconds with the key inserted, the buzzer is activated
to indicate the presence of the key. This function can be eliminated by
lowering the minimum volume of the buzzer by use the UNICO program. ( on
eurokey next there is not the buzzer)
Eurokey NEXT

device can make using the 3
Green
When a sale is made, the yellow LED stops flashing and becomes fixed for
the entire duration of the sale.
When a user key is inserted with a different manager code or without a user
application loaded (card code = 29), the red flashing LED comes on and the
buzzer signals with an error tone.
When a key audit or a programming key without a user code is inserted, the
red flashing LED (1 s) comes on.
When a key audit or a programming key is inserted and the programming
code is correct, the yellow LED stays on fixed for the entire time during
which the data is being stored in the key.
When the transfer has finished, the yellow LED goes off and the green LED
comes on flashing every second.
The programming key is used when some reader settings need to be
changed without connecting the reader to the UNICO program. When the
key and the correct manager code are entered the yellow LED comes on.
When the programming is finished, the yellow LED goes off and the green
one comes on flashing every second: at this point the key can be removed.
After this operation the reader carries out an autoreset so as to restart with
the new configuration with the red LED on.
When the Red and the Green Leds are turned ON at the same time, this
means a low voltage.
When all the LEDs flash together it means the key must be re-inserted in the
reader.

7. Programming and data collection
7.1 Programming
To program Eurokey NEXT system you have to use UNICO software, the programming
key and the Clone Programming key. UNICO CARD software, instead, is used to
manage the media (keys and cards).
Eurokey NEXT can be connected to a PC which has UNICO software installed on it by
means of the USB port. The device is also powered through the USB port.
7.1.1 Safety codes
A safety code is required to access device configuration and to read or modify the
entered data. There are 3 configuration levels which can be accessed through 3
different code sto manage different privilege/access levels.

7.1.2 Programming with UNICO software
Eurokey and Mifare (keys, cards, tag) can be managed by using UNICO software. For
any further information please, see the specific manual, where you can find the details
you need.
7.1.3 Programming key
The programming key is a special contactless key with an
anthracite coloured cap and a red body. The data on this key is
formatted according to the type of operation requested through
the UNICO program. The subsequent programming of the
system takes place simply and quickly by inserting the key in the
reading head. The presence of the CVS signalling LEDs guides
the user through the exact programming sequence of the device
parameters.

7.1.5 Firmware update
It is possible to update the operating firmware of the Eurokey NEXT using the PC and a
USB connection cable.
7.2 Data collection
In the Eurokey NEXT, data can be collected through following three devices:
Audit Key;
•
MicroUSB with PC and UNICO & UNICO AUDIT software;
•
• IRDA interface using UHHT or other Palm with IrDa interface
7.2.1 Audit Key
The Audit Key is a special key with an anthracite coloured cap
and a yellow body, with a high storage capacity, able to make up
to 65/70 collections, depending on the quantity of data to be
exported. Subsequently via a PC, the desktop terminal and the
UNICO or UNICO AUDIT software, it is possible to download the
data stored on the key, view it, print it or save it in a .TXT or .XML file for subsequent
processing using special management software. Appropriate formatting of the Audit ->
Audit + Log key also enables the logs recorded inside the reader to be stored during
the data collection stage. In this particular function, the following can be exported for
each key: Machine no. - Key no. date/time - type of operation performed on the key.
With this function enabled, the number of machines from which the audits can be
extracted, decreases.
The key is delivered without application and safety codes. To use it, please refer to the
UNICO software guide.
7.2.2 Data collection through IRDA interface
The IR interface, on Eurokey NEXT, may be used to read audit data in EVA DTS
format with a palm top device that has a display on which to view the data (available as
an option).
To receive data flow sent via infrared, hold the palm top close to the transmitter on the
front of the cashless system and the data will be received either automatically or,
depending on the type of palm top, when you press a button on the device.
The Led on the reader will guide the operator in the correct data acquisition
sequence. Maximum distance for receiving data correctly is about 50 cm max.
42
Page 21
8. Care and maintenance
All the maintenance operations performed on the device must be
completed while the device is unplugged from the power supply.
Follow the warnings carefully so that the machine is always in the best
operating conditions, preventing dangerous situations or situations
which would render the warranty null and void.
8.1 External maintenance and cleaning
Clean the exterior surface of the device: use a damp cloth with water or a mild
detergent solution. Do not use aggressive solvents, detergents or abrasive sponges
that could damage the machine. Do not immerge the device or expose it to direct
sprays of water or of other liquid of any nature. Periodically check the state of the
machine’s surfaces paying special attention to the areas which, in normal operating
conditions or through malice, could be hazardous for the user. Consult
Comesterogroup for further information.
For any faults or malfunctioning please contact Comesterogroup aftersales service at +39 02 95781111.
10.2 Putting device out of service and waste disposal
