11 CONFIGURATION
This section explains how to configure the Opti-
pay™ CC A-66 Coin Changer for use.
In order to test the A-66 Coin Changer, react
quickly to new false coin occurrences, and make
individual adjustments in the workshop or on site,
three different service tools are available to facili-
tate these Coin Changer requirements.
This section includes:
•
A presentation of the individual service tools
required depending on where the Coin
Validator is to be tested or configured
•
Lists of the functions which can be set with
each service tool
•
Lists of the equipment required for testing or
configuration using the respective tool
•
Brief descriptions detailing how to connect the
various service tools to the Coin Changer
Workshop Testing the Coin
Changer
If Coin Changer functionality needs to be checked
without making any adjustments, the JCM Test
Station is sufficient for this purpose. The Test Sta-
tion is composed of the following two components:
•
Test Software WinMDB
©
and
•
Tester G-19.0654 for Vending Machine
simulation and MDB functions testing
Workshop Testing and/or Configur-
ing the Coin Changer
If the Coin Changer requires testing and configura-
tion in the workshop, the following three JCM con-
figuration solutions are available:
•
A PC programming station consisting of:
–
WinEMP
©
configuration and diagnostics
software, including a card reader and a chip
card
–
Tester G-19.0641 for checking the power
supply
•
A Palm Pilot
®
handheld containing:
–
PalmEMP
©
and/or PalmA66
©
software
installed
–
Tester G-19.0641or G55.0338 for checking
the power supply.
On-Site Testing and/or Configuring
the Coin Changer in a Vending
Machine
If the Coin Changer must be tested or configured in
a Vending Machine on site, the following mobile
JCM configuration tools are available:
•
A Palm Pilot
®
Handheld with PalmEMP
©
and
PalmA66
©
software installed
PC Programming Station and Palm
Pilot
®
Handheld Use
There are separate operating instructions available
for the PC base station using WinEMP
©
software
and the Palm Pilot
®
using PalmA66
©
and
PalmEMP

handheld software. This software con-
tains all necessary detailed steps for configuring
the Coin Changer from installation, to its initial
connection and operation. This user manual only
provides a general overview relative to these
instructions.
If the vending unit does not require
testing, it is unnecessary to dismantle the
entire Coin Changer. In this case it is just
sufficient to remove the Coin Validator
from the Coin Changer in order to
configure or test it.
If it is difficult to connect the G-19.0641
tester to the 5-pin PCB Edge Connector
Plug located behind the Coin Changer
housing, and it is more desirable to
connect the G-55.0338 tester by means of
the MDB connecting cable, an additional
8-pin RJ-45 PC-Adaptor (plug and cable
G 55.0348) can be obtained from JCM for
this purpose. This will allow the Coin
Changer to connect directly to a PC using
the easily accessible 8-pin RJ-45 jack on
the top right corner of the device. This will
also allow testing of all Coin Changer
functions and not just the MDB functions
available through the 5-pin pcb edge
connector plug.
