| Tech Info on Mars Bill Acceptors |
| (1/1) |
| fredster:
Does anybody know of a web site that has tech support/manuals on the Mars Bill acceptors? Anybody ever try and interface one to a Mame Machine? (or anything else for that matter) |
| Ken Layton:
Mars is very protective of their copyrighted manuals. You won't find any online. You *have* to buy the service manuals and interfacing manuals from them through an authorized Mars distributor. Mars service manuals are very expensive. I needed one for a particular model and they charged me $100. Mars bill acceptors also require some specialized test jigs/service tools/power cords that only Mars makes. When you talk Mars you're talking get out the wallet----ouch! You will probably have to phone Mars directly to tell them what you need, then get all the part numbers and order thru a distributor. |
| fredster:
I'm just trying to determine how the thing hooks up. What kind of signal it outputs, etc. I came up with zilch on searches except for some bits and pieces. SOMEBODY has got to have a manual somewhere. I didn't find one on Ebay either. |
| Ken Layton:
Best thing to do then would be to call Mars tech support and tell them what model you have and what you'd like to do. |
