2.3.2. Cloning (Programming without coins)
Cloning is the fastest way in which to program a coin set. Using this
method, coin parameter sets are transferred into the coin selector from
the PC. It is also possible to transfer a coin parameter set from one coin
selector to another thereby giving it nearly identical acceptance and reject
rates. It does not make any difference whether the cloning data set is a
wh original data set or whether it was copied from a coin selector and
stored in the PC.
As a prerequisite to cloning, it is necessary for the coin measuring system
of the originating coin selector to be the same as the measuring system
of the target coin selector. wheasy 5 automatically compares the
measuring configuration of the attached coin selector with the measuring
configuration of the coin selector that produced the coin parameter set.
Cloning is only accomplished if the two systems are indeed the same.
Other data sets are available from wh Münzprüfer if wheasy 5 does not
allow cloning because of a mismatch in the measuring system
characteristics.
Cloning can begin once the PC has been loaded with the cloning data set
and when the coin selector has been connected. This function can be
accessed by selecting “EMP cloning” from the “Data” pull down menu or
directly by clicking
on the tool bar.
The following window opens up after selecting the function “EMP Cloning”:

In certain situations it is possible to selectively clone individual channels.
This can be carried out provided that the loaded data file is identical with
the name of the file loaded from the coin selector. This we refer to as
selective cloning.
