General Information Concerning Coin Changer

The four tube Optipay™ CC A-66 Coin Changer series is designed for vending and service machines containing the serial Multi Drop Bus (MDB) interface.

The integrated Coin Validator contains the reliable sensor system and false money rejection capabili- ties of the tried and tested G-40.4000 Coin Valida- tor within the G-46.4 Coin Changer series.

In order to react as quickly as possible to newly inserted false coins and to enable your individual adjustments, the Coin Validator can be connected to a Personal Computer (PC) programming station

containing the WinEMP© configuration and diag- nostics software, including a card reader, chip card and the G-19.0641 test assembly. With the aid of a

Palm Pilot® handheld containing PalmEMP©, and

PalmA66© program applications, the Coin Changer can be configured directly at the vending machine independently from the PC method. This manual deals exclusively with the Coin Changer

configuration using the Palm Pilot®. For configura- tions using the other programs, separate software instructions are available. (see the "Service tools" section in this section and Chapter 11 "Configura- tion" for further information).

Token types not programmed by the manufacturer, can be programmed directly at the Coin Changer by inserting the new tokens.
