HELP!! Electronic coin door mechs :(
grantspain:
you're in the u.k so the cab should have a c220b coin mech and a klingon credit board,its very simple set up;the credit board uses +12v, common,coin signal,coin meter output

Yes mate that sounds spot on iv taken some pics Iv also tried to follow the wires to see where they go and they went to the back part of the cabinet and dissapeared into the frame so not sure where they went. Is it easy to set one of these up to a MAME cabinet via my keyboard encoder?
lettuce:
If you've got an I-PAC leyboard encoder, you can connect the coin mech up to the 'COIN IN' input on the I-PAC. But i believe you'll need to add a resistor to the coin signal input of the Coin mech to get the voltage down form 12v to 5v as the I-PAC can only accept up to 5v. Someone correct me if im wrong!?

i know f.a about mame but its sounds like you must have some kind of switch interface to allow your control panel to work,on that interface there may be a coin in connection-if there is all you have to do is connect a wire from the coin in on the interface to the coin line on the credit board.
if you look on the credit board itself it tells you which pins do what
have you removed any of the old wiring/psu etc of the gt
Marky_1979:
Most of the GT is still intact I am running my PC through the GT board via an Acade VGA from Ultimarc so I asume If I can work out which of the 6 wires is the coin signal ie 5 button on mame I can snip it from the board and run it directly into the keyboard encoder without interfering with the power signal.
