Wicket Reader Interfaces

 

For Carwash, Laundry, Arcade And Other Markets  

Rev. 10/2008

 

 

 

 

General Description 

The  WR88  Wicket  Reader  requires  5VDC  to  operate  and  has  both  an 
output  signal  and  an  input  signal  for  connecting  it  to  the  system 
equipment.  The  WR88  may  be  configured  in  the  field  to  use  those  input 
and  output  signals  for  serial  data  communication,  or  it  may  use  them  to 
create an output pulse and to monitor the operational status of the system 
equipment. These Wicket Reader Interface Modules have been designed to 
convert  local  available  power  to  5VDC  and  provide  the  proper  interface 
voltages,  currents,  and  connectors  for  interfacing  to  a  variety  of  system 
equipment.  
 

Interface modules covered in this document include: 

 

WK-LV Module:  Pulse Output - Low Voltage Interface  

 

WK-HV Module:  Pulse Output - High Voltage Interface   

 

WK-CD Module:  Serial Port – Card-Display Protocol   

 

WK-MDB Module:  Serial Port - MDB Vendor Protocol   

 
Interface  documentation  for  Turbo  Accessories  applications,  including  Wickets  Jackpot,  Registration  & 
Redemption, and Night Access Door Control, are found within the Turbo Accessories documentation. 
 
 

Pulse Output - Low Voltage:  WK-LV Module 

The  Model  WK-LV  Pulse  Output  -  Low  Voltage 
Interface  Module  was  primarily  designed  for 
applications  powered  by  either  24VAC  or  12-
28VDC and requiring a "coin pulse" style interface 
to 

activate 

the 

service 

equipment. 

Such 

applications  include  carwash  equipment,  laundry 
equipment,  low  voltage  arcade  games  and  other 
similar equipment. 

 

  

Its  three  diagnostic  LED  indicators  provide  visual  operational  information  that  may  be  helpful  during 
installation  and  for  troubleshooting  problems.  The  enclosure  dimensions  are  3.3"  L  x  2.2"  W  x  1.0"  H 
(84mm  x  56mm  x  20mm)  and  comes  with  adhesive  Velcro  mounting  strips.  An  RJ-11  telephone  style 
connector on the right side of the enclosure is to plug in the WR88 Wicket Reader. A wiring harness with 
16" leads plugs into the field wiring connector on the left hand side of the enclosure. Note: Because there 
is more than one style of wiring harness (see below) it is a separately ordered item.
