Cross-reference
The T681-D5EUS is specified as the direct replacement for the legacy AE2681-D5EUS. The T6 platform is also identified as a replacement path for AE26xx and AE28xx validator installations, subject to the equipment’s wiring and interface requirements.
Compatible platforms
This validator is configured for amusement machines, legacy vending equipment, kiosks, and other systems requiring 110 V AC operation. The Compact D-Bezel provides customer-facing guidance and illumination where the cabinet supports this bezel format.
Integration notes
The unit uses a 110 V AC pulse or parallel interface rather than MDB. Firmware can be upgraded through USB or a handheld programmer. The quick-release stacker supports tool-free service, while the Down-Stacker cassette holds up to 500 notes. For applications requiring $50 and $100 acceptance, a T8-series model is required.
