. fasten the slide base to the machine shelf . place the hopper with the Aventador unit over the slide base and shift the hopper on it until it gets to the bottom . before switching power on, read section 4...
(if necessary use a jet of compressed air). Their presence can obstruct the output of the coins, hinder chain movement, spoil the components of the Aventador or alter its performance.

For CRC checksum case format is: [ Destination address ] [ Nr. of data bytes ] [ CRC 16 LSB ] [ Header ] [ Data 1 ] [ Data n ] [ CRC 16 MSB ] 1.4.1 Address Address range is from address 0 to address 255. Address 0 is special case or so called “broadcast” address and address 1 is default host address.

Host software should decide to re-transmit message immediately or after a fixed amount of time. In case when host receive message with error it has same options. 2. Hopper Aventador Command header set Command header set, that host could use in communication with Hopper is given in table below.
