Hi guys,

I won a coin mech on ebay & am trying to get it to work, unfortunatley I can find almost nothing about either parts of it & was wondering if any of you guys either know of a good place to look or actually have one, I have:

Mars Electronics MS 111 TS 5 Coin Validator

&

Philip Shefras Spares "blue board" that I assume is the bit that sends out the signals to the game/pc

All I have been able to find out is the dip switch settings for the blue board :(

Anyone able to help?
Ken Layton:
You have a Mars electronic coin chute replacing the standard mechanical coin mechs & coin switch. Visit the manufacturers website www.meiglobal.com

cheers, I will have a look at that, it is ste Shefras board that is the main problem though as I assume that it is the bit I will need to connect to the pc.

Hi
Sounds like you have a similar setup to me.
I want to connect mine to a JPac, but unfortunately the coin mech runs at 12v, which is too high for the J-Pac - so I've left it disconnected.
My friend reckons a simple transistor circuit could be my answer?

I have some instructions for the board but they are on paper at the moment.
If no one else replies I'll try and scan them on Monday.

Why don't you just pull 12 volts off an unused drive connector on your computer's power supply?
