MAJOR COMPONENTS OF THE MOD BOX

Figures 1-5 and 1-6 show the major components of the MoD BoX Jukebox. Take a minute to familiarize yourself with these components.

Core Computer

The Core Computer is the heart of the system and has a removable hard drive and a single board computer. The hard drive is the only storage in the system and retains: Windows XP Embedded Operating System software, all Application software, all music, and all setup and audit data. The single board computer converts music selections stored on the hard drive into a stereo signal for the systems audio components. It also connects to the Internet, the SVGA touch screen monitor, and to the other peripherals through the Communication Con- troller.

Touch Screen 15" LCD Monitor

All viewing, displaying, selecting, or entering is done through the Touch Screen Monitor. Some of the things it is used for are: viewing and making selections, displaying the selection play- ing, displaying pricing and credits, viewing and changing setup and audit data, and down- loading “Music On Demand” selections.

System Power Supply

The system power supply produces +9 VDC, +12 VDC, +24 VDC, and has a relay to turn on/ off the jukebox lights, touch screen monitor, and bill acceptor. It has an IEC 320 power inlet, two 6A circuit breakers, two 4A fuses, and a power switch for service/repair of the jukeboxes parts. The power switch removes power from all components except the Core Computer and the Router.

Transformer Assembly

Supplies power for the 250 Watt Digital Audio Amplifier and preamplifier, plus the system’s DC power supply voltages +9 VDC, +12 VDC, and + 24 VDC.

Communication Controller

Connects the Core Computer serial RS-232 COM1 port to the serial RS-485 modules. This also includes the coin switch interface. Provides push buttons for service mode, touch screen calibration, and rejecting a song.

Router

This device provides the interface between the Core Computer and the broadband modem or satellite receiver. There is a one time configuration process to set this device for your particular Internet Service Provider (ISP). In addition to the port required for the Core Computer, there are three other ports provided for other devices.

Switch and Volume Control

This unit controls the main power to the jukebox. It contains the Selection Reject Switch, the Volume Control Switch, the core computer’s reset switch, the router reset switch and the ON- OFF switch. This switch controls the power to the lights and touch screen. The amplifier, router and core computer are unaffected.
