107 MUSIC UPGRADE This chapter provides information in regards to how the operator can update the jukebox music catalog. If you have any doubts, comments and/or suggestions in regards to the music content, acquired music service codes, payment notifications and everything related to music update, please contact our Operation Service Center (OSC) at in Tlaquepaque, Jal., México MUSIC CONTENT Local Catalog Each jukebox has a local catalog which is a collection of songs available to the customers for selection and playback. The local catalog is unique to each jukebox. It is the catalog displayed to the customers. The ARION jukebox has a music catalog available from manufacturer, i.e., the jukebox includes a number of songs. The operator has the authorization to play these songs included from manufacturer for a limited period of time until these songs are willingly deleted from the local catalog. Moreover, the operator may update this song catalog by deleting the songs he does not want anymore and/or by adding new ones. Global Catalog This global catalog contains all the music the operator may choose from to include new songs into each one of his jukeboxes. To receive new songs, the operator selects those he wants from the global catalog. The music from the global catalog can be transferred to other jukeboxes by different external devices. 107

108 UPGRADING SCHEME Authorizations are needed to include or play new music in the local catalog, (Music Service Code). Such authorizations are determined by the update outline agreed upon by the operator with the Operation Service Center (OSC), for example, an unlimited number of songs for a monthly or annual fee. The Operation Service Center (OSC) issues and distributes these authorizations in accordance with the update outlines Each owner of an ARION jukebox must request the authorizations from the OSC and indicate the update outline agreed upon. The update outline is unique to each jukebox and no authorization, music service code or song may be transferred from one jukebox to another MUSIC UPDATE PREREQUISITES The owner of an ARION jukebox must have an update outline to receive the global catalog and other information. This update outline is described in the contract executed between the operator and the Operation Service Center (OSC) and specifies the way the operator agreed to update the music content. Sufficient space is needed in the ARION jukebox to store new songs. CATALOG UPDATE USING CCA DISC Use the music update to include new songs in the catalog available and displayed to the end customers. This is done through the Import Content option in the jukebox Service and Maintenance menu. This alternative music update system was developed by ATR and requires a content disc (CCA Disc which is a music content disc with a format recognized by the system) that allows: Massive music update to meet the needs of an establishment (by direct and quick personalization of all the jukebox music content) 108

109 Add specific songs of a catalog of approximately 100,000 songs, (this number depends on the CCA capacity and if it has or not videos/karaoke), i.e., new songs are selected from a list to be included in the jukebox. See the General Configuration section, music content option (Song Administrator) on how to operate the Import Songs option This feature requires having the Music Availability Service. To order these services or to have more information on the same, call our ATR Operation Area to receive a password with a limited usage validity date. Every jukebox can use only one password for these services. MUSIC TRANSMISSION AND ACTIVATION (For manual as well as automatic music update) 1. The Operation Service Center (OSC) provides music by using external devices connected to the jukebox and concentrates the music to be played as requested by the operator or according to the songs suggested by the OSC, in the case of automatic update. 2. The ARION jukeboxes receive the music requested and store it in their local catalogs. The jukebox will only carry the songs selected by the operator. 3. The songs are available for selection and playback in the jukebox. The jukebox system detects if there is an authorization (code for music services) to activate the songs received. The authorization depends on the outline agreed upon by the operator. Activating the songs means to make them available in the jukebox for selection and playback. The order in which the new songs are presented in the local catalog follows the order in which they were received and activated. If you need to check the number of songs that have been received and activated from the first day of the jukebox operation, go to the Service and Maintenance Mode, enter the Report menu and select the following options: Music Playbacks, From the Start, Counters. 109

146 MAINTENANCE OF THE BILL ACCEPTOR Installation of the Electronic Coin Acceptor To avoid the risk of electric shock, make sure to disconnect the power cable that connects the bill acceptor to the main power switch. 146

147 This section of the manual describes the cleaning routine for the optic sensors of the bill acceptor. Dust, dirt, grease residues and particles may accumulate in this area according to the location of the jukebox and the condition of the bills being validated. The optic sensors are located in a dismountable device in the upper section of the bill acceptor. To remove this device, press on the side clamps and pull it out. 1) To remove dust and/or accumulated particles from the optic sensors, use a dry and soft cloth. Replace the device pushing it until secured. You will hear a click when the device is back into the proper position. To avoid personal injuries be careful when working close to the anti-fraud spikes in the bill acceptor. These spikes are extremely sharp. 2) We recommend cleaning the bill acceptor at least once every two months. 3) Use soapy lukewarm water to clean drinks and liquids spills on or inside the bill acceptor. 147

148 4). Clean the external surfaces with a cloth. 5) Dismount the bill acceptor to clean its internal surfaces and mechanisms. Use a spray to direct the water where needed. 6) Wash the contaminants stuck to the bill acceptor. DO NOT wet the integrated circuits and the printed circuit card. 7) Dry the bill acceptor thoroughly before putting it back into place. DO NOT USE spray cleaning agents, petrol-based solvents and strong aromatic solvents since they may damage the rubber and plastic parts, the surface of the sensors and the finish of the bill acceptor. Using these chemical agents may put your health and the environment at risk and may start a fire. DO NOT lubricate the bill acceptor. Grease or oil attracts dust, smoke, etc. which interferes with the proper operation of the bill acceptor. Replace all damaged mechanisms. INSPECTING AND CLEANING THE DRIVE BELTS The bill drive system in the bill acceptor consists of a small engine in a container. This engine activates a dented pulley on both sides of the bill passage. Each dented pulley activates a drive belt that causes a friction against some idler pulleys located at the base of the coin acceptor. When a bill is inserted in the bill acceptor, the bill is trapped and pulled in by the drive belts. Clean al the dust and dirt that may accumulate on the drive belts with a damp cloth. 148

149 INSPECTING AND CLEANING THE OPTIC SENSORS The bill acceptor includes two optic sensor systems. The following images show where the sensors are located in the sensor plates. 149

150 Use a dry cotton cloth to clean the optic sensors. Repeat the cleaning process until the surface of the sensors is free of pollutants. Remember to clean both sides of the sensors from top to bottom. CLEANING THE COIN ACCEPTOR Electronic Coin Acceptor Clean the plastic cover where the coins go through regularly to ensure the proper validation of the coins. Use a damp cotton cloth only. DO NOT USE any solvent, detergent, soap or any other type of agent that produces foam. Make sure that the coin acceptor is completely dry before reinstalling it into the jukebox. a) Disconnect the cable of the coin acceptor. b) Remove the coin acceptor from the plastic support. 150

151 c) Open the door of the coin acceptor and clean it with a damp cotton cloth. Make sure to eliminate all the dust and dirt present. d) Dry the coin acceptor thoroughly before reinstalling it in the jukebox. e) Connect the cable of the coin acceptor and test if it works. 151
