Led6 to microcoin

[Scott.Downey]

Bench testing out timer and microcoin ql. Prorgramed ql to take our tokens and was trying to get to read coins on the dixmire display but it doesn't register. Possibly confused where purple wire goes on led6. We do not have it wired to a selection switch yet but that shouldn't matter? Or does it?

Connect black wire on the QL to the Orange wire 24 VAC from terminal 10 on the LED-6
Connect yellow and a blue or green wire on the QL to Neutral to the Green wire from terminal 9 on the LED-6
Connect the other blue or green wire on the QL to timer coin pulse, Orange/black from terminal 2 on the LED-6
The purple wire isn't used, unless you have a coin counter

The blue and green wires are the relay pulse.

Black from QL to orange of timer (24v hot)
Yellow and blue (or green) wire from QL together to green wire of timer (24v "common")
Green (or blue) wire from QL to orange w/black stripe of timer (AC coin pulse)

If it still doesn't work, there's a good chance you have damaged the coin acceptor. If you hook it up correctly and the timer reads "COIN" you have fused the relay closed.

on the microcoin we programed tokens as 1$ is the green light supposed to blink 4 times like our old idx10's do?

No.

I've feel we have it hooked up correctly. I've looked over instructions a hundred times. I don't feel like its sending pulse to timer, I wonder if we got a bad one?

 

[MEP001]

Do quarters register but tokens don't?

 

[Scott.Downey]

Nothing registers. We tried both coins.

 

[MEP001]

Since you have the yellow and blue wires from the coin acceptor together, briefly jump those to the green wire of the acceptor. If you get coin pulses to the timer, the acceptor is bad. If you don't, the timer is bad.

 

[Scott.Downey]

Figured most our issues out. None of the parts were bad. Ended up not using the connection directions that are exclusive for the Dixmor and used the the connection for a regular timer and it worked.

I forgot about that. Dixmor timers need the yellow and black wires swapped, except for the LED 6.
