Setting a Douro to recognise a Santo Tirso's Fujitsu dispenser

If you have a Douro paired to a Santo Tirso that is one of a small subset which use a Fujitsu dispenser instead of a Puloon dispenser, and you reimage the Douro, the Douro will default to looking for the more widely-used Puloon dispenser.

This would result in remaining on the 'Booting up...' screen if switched to two-way mode.

To instead point the machine to use the Fujitsu F53, you may edit a file on the Douro with a keyboard using the instructions below.

Steps to set a Douro to recognise a Fujitsu dispenser

First, connect a USB keyboard to the top of the Douro's tablet, and pull up a terminal window with Ctrl+Alt+T.

Log in with the following command, followed by the Douro's root password (provided by our support team):

sudo su

When entering the password, no text will show on screen. This is expected.

When you see the 'root@' prompt, run the following command to open the file we'll need to edit:

nano /opt/apps/machine/lamassu-machine/device_config.json

Use the keyboard's arrow keys to navigate to the section named "billDispenser".

    "billDispenser": {
      "device": "/dev/ttyS1"
    },

Edit it to add the following line. (Note: Remember the comma. Punctuation must be exact.)

    "billDispenser": {
      "model": "f56",
      "device": "/dev/ttyS1"
    },

Save the changes by pressing Ctrl+X, then Y.

Then press Enter.

Run the following command to restart the machine:

restart lamassu-machine

Close the terminal window with Alt+F4, then unplug the keyboard.

You may now switch cash-out to 'on' within the admin. Future remote updates will not require this change, though reimaging the drive will require it.
