Your machine has a standard knockout designed for a cashless device. This is the most straightforward mounting type.

There is no standard knockout available on the machine. You will need to drill a large hole or cutout using the drilling template.

In some situations where an AV5 is installed in a standard knockout window, it can leave slight gaps on both sides of the device. A hard silicone boot is used to encase the device.

In the case of a curved consumer panel, the flat back of the AV5 against the curved panel causes gaps on the edges. A curved version of the silicone bumper can be used to enclose and secure the AV5.

If the AV5 is mounted down low or up a high, a special bracket can be used to angle the device, making it more user friendly.

On some AP machines, the AV5 (or AV7) will mount on the door and it swings out with the door away from the machine. This can create an abnormally long distance between the AV5 and the machines control board, so you may need an MDB/DEX extension harness to reach the extra distance.

On some newer Vendo machines, it does have a knockout window but the AV5 butts up to the outside of the hole on the uneven surface. In this case, you can use a bumper to encase the AV5.

In some situations, the AV5 is mounted directly above the bill validator. Depending on the type of validator, there can be a situation where there is not enough space between the back of the AV5 and the validator to fit the MDB and antenna plugs to the back of the AirVend. Typically a spacer can be used with the validator to hold it back further from the machine door and allow for enough space to access the back of the AV5. There is also a 90 degree antenna adapter elbow that can reduce the amount of space needed behind the AV5.
