Troubleshooting

RMA
The operator will contact the 365 Support team and they will determine if an RMA is necessary. If an RMA is needed for either the Pico device or the bill validator, the operator keeps the stand.
- In the event the Pico is being replaced, only the Pico device is removed/replaced - not the entire stand. The old Pico must be removed from the stand, and the new one installed. The operator will need to return one of the antenna cables/antenna and the scanner shield that comes in the RMA kit when they send back the old Pico device. If these pieces are NOT returned, a flat rate of $30 will be charged. Additionally, if a SIM card is in use, the operator will need to remove it from the old Pico and insert it in the new one.
- In the event the bill validator is being replaced, only the bill validator is removed/replaced - not the entire stand. The old bill validator must be removed from the stand, and the new one installed.
- Standard warranty is 12 months. The operator can purchase an extended warranty (5 years) for $150.

IMPORTANT NOTE
The antenna cable/antenna and the scanner shield MUST be returned to 365 when the old Pico is returned. If these pieces are NOT returned, a flat rate of $30 will be charged.
If the existing antenna cable/antenna are NOT damaged, there is no need to swap this part out. Simply send back the brand new antenna cable/antenna as well as the scanner shield.
If the existing antenna cable/antenna are malfunctioning, swap the antenna cable/antenna. Send back the old antenna cable/antenna as well as the scanner shield.
