It will read $1 to $100 but not $5 old or new. Any ideas what I can do to fix it? Check the dip switch settings on the bill head, one of them may have been switched accidentally. I do not have the information in front of me now, but I think they should all be set alike... If one of them in the middle was switched differently it may disble acceptance of a particular bill, the $5 in your case. If that is not it, I am sure that someone will have better help for you. I just wanted to give you soemthing off of the top of my head in case it helps now... CaptainHappy :95- Title: Re: jcm wba-11 question Post by: gposing on September 14, 2011, 11:05:12 AM Good call. I did check the dip switch settings. It is #3. So I thought maybe the switch was not working correctly and ran a diag test that used the switch and the test passed. So I figured that the switch is good. I found another doc about calibration of the unit. I would assume if it needed that I would have problems reading other $$. the new colored $50 works great. I don't have the special sheet, do you think that will take care of it?

I had to completely take the head apart and clean the sensor covers really well as well to get mine to work correctly. Title: Re: jcm wba-11 question Post by: gposing on September 14, 2011, 07:15:58 PM My 11 only takes the bills with the head facing to the right. Is is supposed to allow either direction face up? I did not take the unit apart and clean the lens. I will give that a try. Thanks again!!

Title: Re: jcm wba-11 question Post by: crgadyk on September 14, 2011, 07:59:39 PM As far as I know the WBA 11 ss will only allow them to go in one direction but I'm pretty new to bill validators since I just got mine working finally last night thanks to the good people on here. :244-
Title: Re: jcm wba-11 question Post by: gposing on September 16, 2011, 01:38:30 AM Well I cleaned the heads as stated above and it read 1 of the 3 I tried. It read the one three times in a row. One more question. Will the wba11 read the new 5. Thanks for the help.
Title: Re: jcm wba-11 question Post by: StatFreak on September 16, 2011, 03:24:21 AM The WBA 11 will definitely only take bills in one direction. I believe that V3.60 does take the color $5 with prejudice (meaning none of my DBV200s will take one, even though they're supposed to. :5- I think the calibration has to be spot on.)
