    esign Label – switch functions/coin channel assignment In order to enable easy operation of the coin validator E0P40-EU---20000A there is a label [Fig. 1/14] [Fig. 2/15], on the rear Block A Block B of the device briefly showing the functions of the EUR -,05 EUR -,10 DIL switches at the bottom (cf.
  • Page 18: Switch Blocks

    esign Switch blocks The coin validator has two switch blocks [Fig. 1/13] [Fig. 2/14] with ten DIL switches each (S1.1-10 and S2.1–10) on the rear of the device. The DIL switches can be used to set certain device functions: To find out how to set the individual functions with the help of the switch block, refer to Chap.
  • Page 19: Coin Return Lever

    esign Coin return lever The return lever [Fig. 1/2] [Fig. 2/2] on the top of the device is operated using the return button on the machine when coins which have been inserted are to be returned or e.g. a jam caused by coins which have become stuck needs to be removed.
  • Page 20: Function

    Since in most cases not all coin channels are assigned by customized factory programming, further coin types and the desired information can be assigned to these free channels at any time using the NRI configuration and service tools. Existing configurations can be changed. Eight coin channels are intended to be used for the teach mode. In these teach channels new tokens/coin types can be taught also without configuration and service tools, directly on the coin validator using the switch blocks.
  • Page 21: Memory Blocks

    uncTion Memory blocks The v eagle manages two separately programmed (memory) blocks A and B (cf. Chap. 4.3 Product . 16 coin channels with different coin types (also currencies), sorting information label, p. 15) etc. can be assigned to each block. Only one block at a time can be active and used for coin measurement and further coin processing.
  • Page 22: Transmission Of Coin Values Via Coin Pulses And Coin Signal Lines

    uncTion Transmission of coin values via coin pulses and coin signal lines By default each coin accepted by the coin validator sends a pulse to the machine control via the coin signal line assigned to it. A pulse signals to the machine control that a coin has been accepted.
  • Page 23: Tow Assignments Of The Bacta Machine Interface (Standard And Binary Mode)

    uncTion 5.4.3 Tow assignments of the BACTA machine interface (standard and binary mode) In order to be able to run the parallel or binary mode, two different functions are assigned to the 17 pins of the BACTA machine interface on the rear of the coin validator, except for the select line (pin 8).
  • Page 24: Coin Inhibition/Activation Of Narrow Coin Channels

    uncTion Coin inhibition/activation of narrow coin channels If coins are no longer to be accepted for payment on the machine you can either • inhibit coin acceptance completely, • inhibit all coin channels of a certain coin to ensure that this coin is no longer accepted, or • inhibit the normal coin channel of a certain coin so that this coin is accepted only in the narrow channel.
  • Page 25: Sorting Accepted Coins (Option)

    uncTion Sorting accepted coins (option) To direct accepted coins either to the cash-box or an external sorting device, e.g. change tubes or hoppers, the coin validator can be equipped with a 5-fold in-line sorter or a 4-fold sorter at the coin outlet. The chutes are controlled via a flap sorting system using three solenoids. In this section you learn all about the principle of • Longitudinal sorting –...
  • Page 26: Sorting With Nri 4-Way Manifold (Option)

    Sorting with NRI 4-way manifold (option) For the purpose of splitting-up and for better transport of the sorted coins you have the option of an NRI 4-way manifold which can be screwed to the coin validator from the bottom. This manifold is primarily used in AWP and SWP slot machines.
  • Page 27: Sorting Principle Of 4-Fold Sorter (Ex7Xpx

    uncTion 5.7.2 Sorting principle of 4-fold sorter (Ex7xPx. ..) (not with BDTA interface) The individual coin types can be distributed to the four sorting chutes independent of their dimensions. Each chute can be defined as cash box chute. Which coin is sorted into which of the chutes is determined by customized factory programming or set via the machine control system.
  • Page 28: Sorting With Money Controls 4-Way Manifold

    uncTion 5.7.2.1 Sorting with Money Controls 4-way manifold For the purpose of splitting-up and for better transport of the sorted coins you have the option of a Money Controls 4-way manifold which can be screwed to the coin validator from the bottom. This adapter is primarily used in AWP and SWP slot machines.
  • Page 29: Sorting With Active Money Controls 8-Way Manifold

    uncTion 5.7.2.2 Sorting with active Money Controls 8-way manifold For applications which require 8-fold sorting it is possible to mount a Money Controls 8-way manifold below the coin validator in the vending machine (cf. . This active 8-way Chap. 10.3.2 Manifolds/sorters, p. 52) sorter splits up the four sorting chutes of the coin validator into pairs of two each.

Single inhibit lines of BDTA interface If the machine control shall sort coins into the cash box chute or into an override sorting chute when the external sorting device sends a "full" signal, the coin validator can be programmed in the factory in such a way that, depending on the status of the single inhibit signal line 6 (pin 4) (high/low), the single inhibit signal lines 1–5 either • inhibit coins by default (single inhibit signal line 6 = low, single inhibit lines 1–5 = high) or...
  • Page 31: Manipulation Detection (Option)

    uncTion Manipulation detection (option) In case manipulation is detected while a coin is being accepted the coin validator emits a foul signal and a string signal as an option. 5.9.1 Foul signal (only v² eagle BACTA) The coin validator reports a manipulation of the acceptance gate by transmitting a foul signal (pulse length: at least 600 ms) via all signal lines in the standard mode (in the binary mode: via all signal lines except for the strobe line).
  • Page 32: Start-Up

    TaRT Start-up When carrying out any assembly and installation work on the coin validator, always observe the following safety instructions: • The coin validator must only be connected by a trained electrician. • The coin validator is not suited for outdoor use. • Never use the coin validator if there is damage to the device or the connecting cables.

    peRaTion Operation This chapter describes how to operate the coin validator, i. e. setting of certain functions on the coin validator: • Selecting a memory block • Inhibiting coins/activating narrow coin channel • Teaching coin channels in teach mode (option) The settings which are made directly on the coin validator are described.
  • Page 35: Inhibiting Coins/Activating Narrow Coin Channel

    peRaTion Inhibiting coins/activating narrow coin channel Using the two switch blocks on the coin validator you can inhibit on site each of the 16 coin channels of the activated memory block or each coin assigned to certain coin channels, which means that the inhibited channels are not used for payment on the machine: • Accept coin unrestrictedly: all channels assigned are enabled • Narrow the acceptance band of a coin: inhibit normal channel...
  • Page 36 peRaTion Example The coin validator shall not use coin channels 3 and 10 for coin acceptance, so that coin channels 3 and 10 must be inhibited With this setting, coin channels 3 and 10 are no longer used! If one normal and one narrow coin channel are programmed for a coin type on the coin validator, you must inhibit the normal coin channel as described above to activate the narrow coin channel.
  • Page 37: Teaching Coin Channels In Teach Mode (Optional)

    peRaTion Teaching coin channels in teach mode (optional) If the v eagle has been programmed accordingly in the factory, up to eight coin channels (teach channels) can be taught on the coin validator via the bottom switch block in order to create new acceptance bands.
  • Page 38 peRaTion To save with the normal acceptance band: Reset DIL switch S2.9 to OFF (down). The system indicates successful saving with a single actuation of the acceptance gate and an error at saving with a double actuation (a brief clicking noise in each case) if the acceptance band of the inserted coins and that of an already programmed coin channel overlap or the generated measured values are too different and the tolerances would be too high, for example.
