Coin Hopper Error Conditions
OptoBlkd Indicates the coin counting optic is blocked. The exit path
may be obstructed, or the Optic Board may be bad.
No Comm. The Universal Board is unable to communicate with the
coin hopper. The hopper may be disconnected, have a
damaged harness, or may need to be repaired or replaced.
High The hopper motor exceeded its maximum threshold for
Current current. Inspect for a jammed coin preventing the coin belt
from moving, or a stalled or shorted motor. Repair or
replace the hopper.
Low The amount of coins in the coin hopper is below its
operational threshold. First ensure there are enough coins
in the coin hopper to completely covert the metal plates
located at the bottom of the hopper. Second use Scotch-
Brite to scrub the metal plates. This is effective on dull
plates. Repair or replace the hopper.
TimeOut The coin hopper did not complete a payout in its allotted
time frame. Check the hopper for any coin jams or
mechanical obstructions preventing coins from exiting.
Have the unit repaired or replaced.
Fraud The optic sensor detected something outside of a
dispensing cycle. Inspect for a jammed coin or other
obstruction near exit window; repair or replace the
hopper.
