Cross-reference
The T642-U3EUS is the direct replacement for the discontinued AE2642-U3EUS and is intended as a plug-and-play upgrade within compatible AE26xx validator installations.
Compatible platforms
This validator is configured for Crane MEI Talos T6 applications in amusement machines, vending equipment, kiosks, and other systems using MDB control. The E-series mainboard and U.S. standard MDB build are identified by the EUS configuration code.
Integration notes
Confirm that the host controller supports MDB and that the equipment is wired for the supplied 12-pulse parallel harness before ordering. The four-way bill path simplifies front-entry installation, while the quick-release stacker supports field servicing. For applications requiring $50 and $100 acceptance, a T8-series validator is required instead.
