Currency selection and counting modes
Currency selection
By standard the BC 242 SD starts up in the Euro MIX mode which means than any stack of Euro notes
(sorted or mixed denominations) can be counted and tested.
Preinstalled currencies are Euro (EUR), British Pound (GBP), Swiss Franc (CHF) and USD Dollar (USD). Other
currencies are available on request.
All of these currencies can be counted as well mixed as sorted. By pressing the CUR key, a currency can
be chosen. The ‘currency’ MULT means that even a stack of mixed currencies (EUR/GBP/USD) will be
recognized, counted and tested, however we advise to count per currency.
Counting modes
For most currencies the BC 242 SD can count both sorted and mixed banknotes. The MODE button
enables you to switch between the different counting modes which can be set per currency.
