least once. For safety purposes, take care to ensure that the contents of this installation guide have been understood and the
reader knows how to install, set up, and operate the card reader.
Intended use
The Alio Vend card reader is intended for use in vending machines. It is designed to combine remote audit, contactless, chip
and PIN, and touch screen technology into a single solution. With reduced hardware, the Alio Vend card reader delivers a PSD2
compliant, PCI certified solution that provides an enhanced installation experience, on screen diagnostics, improved consumer
user interface, and a measurable ROI with the combination of audit and cashless payment into a single device..
Use the card reader exclusively for this purpose. Under no circumstances can the manufacturer be held liable for any damage
or loss resulting from improper use of the equipment.
The Alio Vend card reader has been built in accordance with state-of-the-art standards and the recognized safety directives.
Please observe the safety instructions that follow.
Protecting persons and equipment
High Voltage Inside.
Risk of Electric Shock.
Turn OFF power to the machine before installing or removing the Alio Vend card reader.
The installation work described in this guide may only be carried out by qualified technicians

Compliance
The Alio Vend card reader has been evaluated and is compliant with:
UL 756 – Coin and Currency Changes and Actuators
CSA C22.2 No. 128 – Vending Machines
FCC
The Alio Vend card reader complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by CPI could void the user's authority to
operate the equipment. FCC ID: N7NHL7618RD.
CPI has not approved any changes or modifications to the Alio Vend card reader. Any changes or modifications could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment. See 47 CFR Sec. 15.21.
USA: May contain FCC ID: N7NHL7618RD.
This device complies with Part 47 CFR of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
This device may not cause interference.
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This radio transmitter has been approved to operate with the antenna provided and with the maximum permissible gain
indicated.
Antenna types that have a gain of 50Ωgreater than the maximum gain indicated for any antenna type are strictly prohibited for
use with this device.
Max Antenna Gain (dBi) 50Ω
LTE band 4 = 5.0 dBi
LTE band 13 = 9.0 dBi
To be sure that human exposure to RF energy does not exceed the guidelines in the relevant standard, always follow these
instructions:
Maintain a minimum of 20cm (8 inches) between the antenna and all persons.
The device antenna must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Only the
antenna(s) supplied with this device are to be used or the user may void the authority to use this device.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the device is in use. Holding the antenna will affect call quality and may cause the radio to
operate at a higher power level than needed.

Pacemaker guidance: potential interference
Radiofrequency energy (RF) from cell phones can interact with some electronic devices. This type of interference is called
electromagnetic interference (EMI). For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure EMI of
implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from cell phones. This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the
Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). This standard will allow manufacturers to ensure that
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from cell phone EMI.
The FDA continues to monitor the use of cell phones for possible interactions with other medical devices. Should harmful
interference occur, FDA will conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.
For more information reference sources for pacemakers can be found at the US Food and Drug Administration web site:
https://www.fda.gov / Radiation-Emitting Products / cell phones / potential-cell-phone-interference-pacemakers-and-other-
medical-devices.
Laser SAFETY CONSIDERATION
The Alio Vend card reader includes a laser emitter and corresponding drive circuitry. The laser output is designed to remain
within Class 1 laser safety limits under all reasonably foreseeable conditions, including single faults, in compliance with IEC
60825-1:2014 (Third Edition).
The laser output will remain within Class 1 limits if the CPI recommended device settings (API settings) are used and the
operating conditions specified are respected.
The laser output power must not be increased by any means and no optics should be used with the intention of focusing the
laser beam.
The laser does not require any control, adjustment or maintenance.
Caution: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
Laser characteristics. This device emits pulsed laser radiation with a period of 16.7 nanoseconds and 5 nanoseconds on
time, resulting in a duty cycle of 30%. The wavelength is 945 nm.
Compliance statement for Laser Notice 56. Complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for conformance with IEC
60825-1 Ed. 3., as described in Laser Notice No. 56, dated May 8, 2019.
