Title: Coin door install
Post by: peanut on June 25, 2005, 07:18:05 pm

I have an I-Pac4 from ultimarc currently installed in my cabinet, Hooked up to my Pc. I am buying a coin door with mechs off ebay all tested to be 100% working from a good seller, my question is what the procedure to get the ipac to read the coin inserts?

Hook the coin door switches to the inputs on the IPAC.

The switches for the coins are like standard microswitches, just with a different mechanism for closing the switch.  If you daisy-chained the grounds, just run an additional ground down to the GND terminal, and then wire them as you did with all the other buttons.  Each wire then goes to the P1, P2, P3, or P4 coin on the IPAC4
