Inhibit means reject or lockout a certain denomination. Suggest contacting the manufacturer www.meiglobal.com for instructions on your particular mech.

you'll need a credit board to be able to specify how much it is a go - it connects to the pins on the bottom left of the picture.

you'll get one from swallow amusements

Yeah ive got one, here



I want to also be able to get this to work with my mame cabinet, i take it the wires that supply the power are run from the Coin mech to the credit broad and finally to the multi power supply that i removed right? Would these be a red wire and a Black wire? Can i connect the +12 V wire (red?) and Ground (black) wire from the credit broad to my PCs +12V & GND wires, and then it will all work?
I have noticed that from the credit broad, a red & black wire runs to a analog counter just inside the coin door, would these also be the Live (+12v) and GND wires?

I made a mistake, the +12V wire is the yellow wire not the red (thats +5v). Egg have u got ures hooked up to your PCs power supply then? And you know what the jumpers settings are for credits etc?
