Programming IDX Coin Mech
Coin Learn Procedure
1) Slide the front cover up and identify the three controls to be used in this procedure:
• Red or black push button near center bottom. (Used to input the number of credit pulses)
• 16 position rotary switch to the right of the push-button. (#0 is normal RUN position, #1 -
#6 are for learning each of 6 possible coin types that can be accepted)
• LED indicator half way up on the right side. (Green in RUN mode, red in LEARN mode)
2) Turn the rotary switch to one of the LEARN positions #1 - #6 (for example, pick #1 for learning
the 1
st
coin type) and observe the LED turns red to indicate it is now ready to learn.
3) Push the red or black button once for each credit pulse you wish to have issued for this coin.
In our example, a quarter coin would require 1 credit pulses.
4) Slide the cover back on the unit to make sure outside light does not interfere with the sensors.
5) Show the unit 6 samples of the coin by depositing them into the acceptor as usual. It is best to
use 6 different coins since there are typically slight variations from coin to coin.
6) After the 6
th
sample coin is deposited, the LED will flash red-green a few times to indicate the
LEARN procedure is complete and the coin parameters are stored in memory.
7) Slide the front cover open again and turn the rotary switch back to position #0 and observe the
LED turning green. Check that you have not accidentally turned it too far to position #15,
which is a field test function position in which it will not accept coins.
8) Slide the front cover back down and you should now be able to accept the new coin.
Coin De-Learn Procedure
1) Slide the front cover up and turn the rotary switch to the coin # position you wish to De-Learn
2) Push the red button once to initiate the LEARN sequence.
3) Turn the rotary switch back to position #0 without depositing any coins to signal the unit that
you wish it to erase the parameters for this coin. The LED will flash red-green to indicate
completion.
4) Slide the front cover back down.
