Setting The Vend Price On A Single-Price Changer - Coinco 800 Series Operation And Service Manual

SECTION 3: CONFIGURATION
Setting The Vend Price On
A Single-Price Changer
The vend price on a single-price changer may
be set in four ways:
• via Coinco Support Software
• via DEX/UCS
• via the first eight Option Switches
• via the digital display.
The vend price can be set in single increments
up to 255 times the lowest denomination coin
that is accepted by the changer and routed to a
coin tube.
EXAMPLE: If the lowest denomination coin is
one, the highest vend price setting would be 255
x 1 or 255.
VIA COINCO SUPPORT SOFTWARE
Consult Coinco Support Software manual for
price setting instructions.
VIA DEX/UCS
Consult Hand-held Computer manufacturer.
VIA OPTION SWITCHES
Note: The switches are ON in the upwards
position.
1. Set the vend price by adding the amount of
the appropriate switches and setting them to
the ON position (see Figure 11).
2. Set Option Switch B to the OFF position.
3. Set Option Switches A, C and D to the
desired configuration (see "Option Switch
Module" section of this manual).
4. After setting the vend price and the desired
options, press and release the Mode Button
to store the new setting. The LED and the
"Use Correct Change" light will then flash
once, indicating that the price was recorded.

Example: Switch 1, 3, 4, set to on and the
remaining set to off would result in a price of
(1+4+8) x Scaling Factor. If the scaling factor
were set to 5 and the decimal point set to 2, the
resulting price setting would be (1+4+8) x (.05) =
13 x .05 = 0.65 units. The current scaling factor
can be displayed using display mode, address
"A010" on the acceptor. The current decimal
point position can be displayed using diplay mode,
address "A011".
NOTE: The vend price must be set to an
amount greater than zero for the changer to
accept coins in single-price mode.
VIA DIGITAL DISPLAY

Mode" section of this manual).
2. Press B to scroll up to "C001" (Price 1).
3. Press C to enter. The current Price Setting is
displayed.
4. Use buttons B (increase) and D (decrease) to
change C001 to the appropriate price.
5. Press A to store price and return to the
Display Mode.
7. Press A to exit the diplay mode.
Note: The Display Mode will exit automatically
