MEI to showcase cash management solutions at FADJA

SC Advance evolved from the winning Cashflow SC note acceptor, applying new technology and market knowledge to make a great product even better. It features enhanced recognition technology, faster bill-to-bill speed, improved barcode recognition and increased memory. SC Advance also has the industry’s best acceptance rate for valid street-grade notes, including those that are wet, crinkled or torn.

Because enhancements are localized to the acceptor head, SC Advance can work hand-in-hand with legacy Cashflow SC units so MEI customers can yield the most value from their previous investments. Operators have the luxury of updating the slot floor at their own pace as capital becomes available. Intelligent support tools will sense the product version and run the appropriate software.

More MEI customers are now also implementing Easitrax Soft Count, a product extension that expands the reach of note acceptors from the slot floor into the soft count room. The addition of Easitrax to SC Advance or Cashflow SC creates a comprehensive software/hardware system designed to streamline the cash management process. 

Easitrax Soft Count works by gathering data from multiple note acceptors and funneling that information into a secure remote database that can be accessed to track revenues and analyze slot performance. RFID technology connects slot machine asset numbers to a specific cashbox to help eliminate “hot boxes” and increase operational efficiencies. Operators typically receive a return on investment in less than one year by reducing 20-30 seconds per cash drop and improving maintenance practices through access to eight pre-programmed reports. Since it was introduced in 2008, Easitrax Soft Count has been installed in over 100,000 games worldwide.

Operators typically receive a return on investment in less than one year through newfound efficiencies in labor, maintenance and accounting practices. An interactive savings calculator on the new Easitrax website (www.easitraxsoftcount.com) can be used to estimate savings by implementing the Soft Count cash management solution.
