That's how all the cool kids do it. The coin mech is just a switch like any other one of your buttons. You wire that switch up to the "5" (or whatever) on your encoder anf voila! You've got a working coin door. Do a search and I'm sure you'll find hundreds of posts. |

try retrocade.com thats the guide im using to wire my door up. |
| PhoneLine:
Thanks guys. Sith, that web site actually just brings me to a search, do you have a direct link to the guide your talking about? |

You don;t need a guide. At the coin exit of the coin door is a switch. In fact it will probably be the same switch your pushbuttons use except it will have a wire actuator to trip the switch when the quarter goes by. Wire it up just like a pushbutton. http://www.happcontrols.com/electrical_supplies/42107500.htm |
