Important Legal Note.

For legal reasons we must state here that the J-PAC is not designed to be used in revenue-earning applications where a credit mechanism is used. The J-PAC contains no specific interface functionality for any credit device. Although it has inputs which connect to the JAMMA coin signals, these are designed such that activating a switch connected to them causes the MAME "coin" keycodes (5 or 6) to be sent. These are designed to be used with panel pushbuttons not coin doors or note acceptors.

well you can see the problem,like peale said its to do with normally open/closed config

darn. Well what would be the electronic solution for flipping the signal...
From electronics class I would say a NOT gate, but since that was a long time ago I have no idea what to do :)

Any suggestions?

Had a play at the weekend. When plugging it in bulb does come on for a second then it fades out and is on, but very dim. Then when you turn it off the bulb stays dim for a bit, then shines bright again, then goes off.

Very odd...

I'll just buy a replacement from ultimarc if I don't get this fixed in a couple of weeks

the best suggestion was made earlier,install a machanical coin mech-it is possible to fit one to that door but you need some good tools and good diy skills.

basically you can fit a mech cradle onto that door buy cutting a few holes,i have done it loads of times.

the bulb dimming thing leads me to believe your +12volts is shorting somewhere-if you got a multimeter on the 12v line you could prove it
