Cross-reference
This T6-series validator is the direct replacement for the AE2654-U5EUS. The T654-U5EUS retains the required 12 V DC configuration while providing Talos platform serviceability and compatibility with the specified Up-Stacker arrangement.
Compatible platforms
The unit is configured for compact amusement machines, vending equipment, and kiosks that use a 12 V DC pulse interface, Fitted Bezel mounting, and upward note stacking. It accepts U.S. $1–$20 notes within the listed denomination set. Applications requiring $50 or $100 validation should use a T8-series model instead.
Integration notes
- Firmware can be upgraded through USB or a handheld programmer.
- The quick-release stacker cassette simplifies collection and routine service.
- Confirm cabinet clearance, 12 V DC power compatibility, and pulse or serial control requirements before installation.
