Cross-reference
The T831-D7EUS is the Talos replacement for the discontinued AE2831-D7EUS. Its T8 platform retains the VFM-style form factor while providing updated optics, counterfeit screening, and modular service access.
Compatible platforms
This validator fits legacy vending and amusement machines built around 110 V AC bill-acceptor circuits, including applications using pulse, parallel, or legacy serial interfaces. The VFM down-stacker format is intended for standard vertical bill-storage installations.
Service notes
The cassette releases as a service module for maintenance and collection. Confirm the machine’s 110 V AC supply, connector arrangement, bezel clearance, and control interface before installation; this is not an MDB 24 V DC validator. Firmware can be maintained in the field with USB or a compatible handheld programmer.
