Hey, all you slot machine repair types, anyone seen a
manual for a Japan
Cash Machine DBA-01 dollar bill acceptor? I have one and no idea how to
hook up to the two connectors (one little four-pin and one six-pin in
two row with slightly heavier pins. All it says on the top is "DC 12V
9.4VA MAX." It's also got an eight-position dip switch I have no idea
how to set.
I'll dig through my catalogs/manuals. Usually there are two
interfaces -- a serial one and a serial one :> The former being
something akin to EIA232 while the latter is a pulse train.
The dip sitch typically is used to set things like "pulses per
coin (bill)" -- though that also varies with manufacturer
and model.
I'd like to make a cool bank for my kid.
Ah, interesting application! (until he gets bored watching the
money go IN and starts asking for it to come OUT! :> )
Get yourself a coin mech as well and swindle him out of
his "spare change" at the same time! :>
