question about wiring a coin door

[Polokus]

I have bought a cabinet and the last thing i want to do now is wiring the coin door on my ipac if possible?

is there a page or something where i can see how to wire it so that credits appear when i insert a coin ?

thx in advance for the help

The coin switches at the bottom of the coin door are exactly like all the other switches on your control panel, except that they probably have .250 terminals instead of .187 terminals.  Just wire them up like any other switch.

The lights in the coin slots cannot be lit via the I-Pac.  The "standard" way to do this is to connect either the +5V or +12V (depending on your lights) from a hard drive connector on the computer to the coin door lights, or use a separate power supply.

The switches are available from Happ for about $4 each... http://www.happcontrols.com/electrical_supplies/42107500.htm

If Happs still has that $30 minimum for an order, you can try emailing this guy:

sheljk@attbi.com

He usually has all that stuff, cheaper than Happs and no minimum order that I know of....

Happs no longer has a minimum order.
