3.6. ELECTRICAL DIAGRAMS AND PINOUT The U3 Hopper uses a type 5 connector indicated by the ccTalk general specification. It is a 10- pin connector (2x5) of 2.5mm pitch, Molex 8624 or similar. The U3 Hopper has two different connecting versions depending on the part number of the product: united or separated power. -
Page 16: Figure 8 - General Diagram For Power Separated Hoppers
GND_POWER and GND_LOGIC, due to the voltage drop along the cables, of up to ±2.5 Volts. Even though the new feature of separating the power requires a pinout of the U3 Hopper, which differs from its predecessor U-II Hopper, it is still compatible. -
Page 17: Description Of Components
4.1. COIN BOWL The coin bowl is where the U3 Hopper stores the coins and, is also from where they are extracted when ordered to do so by the machine. Its design allows to be stored the maximum number of coins in the minimum space, considering that even the last coin can be extracted. -
