Coin Acceptors (cont.)
Micro Comparitor MC
(Replacement for
CC-16 and CC-62)
Designed for coin
diameters of .700"
(17.8mm) to 1.47"
(37.34mm). Wide Body
model recommended for
coin diameters up to
1.950" (49.5mm).
Wiring Instructions: The
printed circuit board is
available with one of two possible connectors. A 7-pin
Molex header is used when emulating a model CC-62;
a 6-pin JST header is used to emulate both the CC-16
and CC-40.
Operating Voltage: There are two different models of-
fered, a 12 Volt DC only model, and a multi-voltage
model which allows for operations from 20 to 40 Volts
DC, or 20 to 30 Volts AC.
Inhibit Input Feature: The INHIBIT feature is an input
which allows you to disable the device without removing
power from it. The INHIBIT pin can be configured to
accept either a LOW or HIGH level signal to inhibit the
device.
Tilt Output: The TILT signal is an output which alerts
the machine of a malfunction or tampering of the device.
There are different conditions which will generate a TILT
MC-16
signal, and the lengths of the pulses can be changed to
accommodate different machine requirements.
Additionally, a NULL signal is an internal signal
generated when a valid coin passes the sensor coils. If
this NULL signal is too long (> 250ms as sometimes
occurs when stringing) the TILT line will output a signal.
If any of the optics are blocked for 1.5 seconds or longer
the TILT line will be active until the condition is corrected.
If a coin is detected moving past the optics in a reverse
direction (stringing) a TILT pulse occurs. If a coin passes
the optics without a matching sense pulse a TILT occurs
(note 1). The mechanism will not accept coins when
the TILT line is active.
Credit Signal: The CREDIT signal is an output which
occurs for every valid coin that is accepted properly
through the mechanism. A CREDIT is generated by the
internal microcontroller only when a valid sense pulse
is matched with a corresponding optic pulse. This close
control between the sense signal and the optic signal
allows more accurate monitoring of coins through the
mechanism. The CREDIT signals are buffered and
therefore are fixed in length and duty cycle regardless
of coin feed rate.
Sense Signal: The SENSE signal is an output which
simply indicates that a valid coin has passed the sensor
coils. It is available for those applications requiring a
pre-count or verification that valid coins have entered
the device.
Bi-Color Status Indicator: The MC-16/40/62
incorporates a bicolor (green / red) LED on its front cover
to easily indicate the operating status of the mechanism
visually. The LED will be green when power is applied
to the device and it is enabled (INHIBIT not active) to
accept coins. The LED will be red if the INHIBIT line is
active (disable coin acceptance) or if there is no resident
coin in place. The LED will also change to red when the
TILT line is active (error condition). When the LED is
red the device will not accept coins.
