Coins not remitted
This meter will show activity only if you have an MDB Level 3 coin changer,
for instance a 5-tube/6-tube coin changer, supporting Alternative Payout. In
MDB Level 3, the X6 tells the coin changer to give out an amount (i.e. $3.25)
and the coin changer decides by itself from which tubes it will dispense that
amount based on the current coin level. You will see this meter increase if:
1. The X6 circuit has sent a payout order to the coin changer. The coin
changer gave only what it could give (i.e. $1.50) because the tubes are
running empty.
2. The meters will increase by $1.75 ($3.25 payout order - $1.50 actually
paid out = $1.75 not remitted).
The Total and Cumul. meters work as in Cash sales (see below).
An MDB Level 2 coin changer (3-tube/4-tube) cannot generate an increase
in this meter for the reason that even if the tubes are empty, the coin
changer will execute the payout order even if no coins are coming out. A
Level 2 coin changer does not manage the pay out.
Cash Sales
This meter has two lines. One line says Total, the other says Cumul., which
means Cumulative. The line Total is the value of all the copies paid cash
since it was last cleared. If it shows $125.60, it means you have sold a total
of $125.60 since that meter was cleared. Therefore, it is important to clear
this meter every time you collect the money. If you are operating this coin-op
on behalf of a third-party to which, you give a commission on sales, this is
the number you must use to calculate the commission + the card sales if
there is a card reader.
As for the Cumul. line, it keeps on adding up as you can't clear it. This is the
value of copies paid cash since Day One. It is also a double-check tool. If
upon the last collection visit, this meter was showing $9875.60, and today it
shows $10001.20, the above meter called Total must show $125.60. Conse-
quently, Current cumulative meter - Previous cumulative meter = Current
total sales ($10001.20 - $9875.60 = $125.60).
Card Sales
This meter also has two lines: Total and Cumul. It works just like Cash
sales but this time it refers to copies sold using a card (prepaid or credit). If
you are operating this coin-op on behalf of a third-party to which, you give a
commission on sales, this is the number you must use to calculate the com-
mission + the cash sales above. Note that depending the prices set for the
copies, you may find here amounts ending with any digits as cashless de-
vices allow transactions ending with anything between 0 and 9 whereas in
cash it is either 0 or 5.
