Post-Gate Strobes (9)
The strobes are used to detect the direction & presence of coins passing through the
validator.
Dual Polarity and BCO Interface Connector (10)
When in NON SERIAL mode, this interface is used to connect to the host machine. The
functions provided are:
• Coin outputs A, B, C, D, E, F.
• Coin inhibits A, B, C, D, E, F.
• Coin common output
• Output mode selection
The acceptor will operate in one of two Coin Output modes:
• Parallel - can be positive or negative common
• Binary Coded Output (BCO)
These will be automatically selected by the “Output mode select” line, if nothing is
connected to the output line then the acceptor will default to parallel mode.
Pre-Gate Strobes (11)
This is an integral part of the validator which detects obstructions around the accept gate. If
an obstruction is detected then coin acceptance is inhibited.
Validator Lid (12)
This lid opens outwards when the reject lever is pressed. It allows for clearance of coins
jams and also provides access for cleaning the coin entry paths. It is also used in some
product configuration modes.
Reject Lever (13)
This lever can be pressed to clear any coins that might have got stuck inside the validator
lid.
