Description
The Pyramid Platinum PT1-LB4-USA Bill Acceptor MDB 24V DC is a proven bill acceptor from Pyramid Technologies, available now through E&D Trading with fast nationwide shipping.
The Pyramid Platinum PT1-LB4-USA is Pyramid Technologies' next-generation bill acceptor, built for 24/7 duty in amusement, skill game, kiosk, gaming, and vending equipment. This is the MDB version for vending machines, micro markets, and kiosks that use the Multi-Drop Bus standard. It accepts $1, $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 bills and stacks them into a lockable 500-note cash box.
Platinum does away with DIP switches and configuration cards. Firmware and settings load from a USB flash drive or a PC, and the unit keeps them even when power is removed. Internal sensors auto-calibrate, so it never needs manual calibration.
Key features
- Accepts $1–$100 US bills, with an acceptance rate above 95% and roughly 27 bills per minute
- Dual-stage optical anti-stringing plus an integrated mechanical anti-stringing lever
- UV (ultraviolet) LED validation for stronger counterfeit detection
- Lockable, removable 500-note cash box (the "L" and "B" in the model number)
- Lighted bezel and lighted bill entry
- Firmware and configuration updates by USB flash drive or PC; no DIP switches
- Removable bill path for easy cleaning, plus push-button/LED and PC-based diagnostics
- Harness pinouts often compatible with other manufacturers' bill acceptors
- Standard MDB connector and pinout for drop-in use on MDB vending controllers
- Made in the USA, backed by Pyramid's 2-year parts and labor warranty
Communication

Setup and support
Because settings come from a configuration file, confirm your machine type when ordering so the unit can be set up for your application. Step-by-step guides: How to update Platinum firmware and How to load a Platinum configuration file. Pyramid's free Platinum Acceptor Tools software and the Platinum Installation & Operation Manual are available from Pyramid.
