CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide PRODUCT OPERATION Accepted Coins If a coin or token is recognised by the validator the accept gate will then be activated and the coin/token routed along the accept path to enter the separator which consists of a number of solenoid operated gates to route the coin/token to a pre-programmed exit. The CashFlow® validator has the capability to sense the direction of a coin.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide PRODUCT OPERATION, ELECTRICAL. Validator Connector 1, Machine Interface The interface to the machine is provided by Connector 1 of the validator. The functions provided are: Coin outputs A, B, C, D, E, F. The unit will operate in one of three Coin Output modes: Fixed Parallel. Fixed Binary Coded Output (BCO). Automatic - Selects BCO or Parallel Interfaces. More detail on these modes are given later.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Validator Connector (5), Serial Port (Future use only) This 10 pin connector, accessible from the bottom of the validator, provides for a potential serial communication to a service tool. At present this connector serves no function. Customers should not connect anything to this connector. Validator Connector (6), (Future use only) A 6-way connector used for a MEI® Route Alpha hand held service tool. At present this connector serves no function.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide PRODUCT CONFIGURATION Using the Rotary Data Switch and the 4-Way DIL Switches the product can be re-configured. Further details regarding the settings shown below can be obtained from the CashFlow® 126 and 129 Operators Handbook.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide PRODUCT INTERFACES Introduction The standard interfaces available on CashFlow® 126/129 validators are Parallel and Binary Coded Output (B.C.O.). The validator is supplied in Automatic Mode which senses the type of interface selected by the host machine via pin 8 (Output Mode Select) of the machine interface connector. The product can be taught to ignore the state of this line by changing the machine interface type as above.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide This will only operate when in parallel mode. This factory set option will pulse the GB 50p coin output (of a GB profile) four times on validation of a GB £2 coin. This option can be disabled using the Service Alpha. Coin validation Inhibits A, B, C, D, E, F To inhibit coin acceptance the CashFlow® validator offers six individual inhibit inputs. These inhibits operate for each mode as detailed in the following text.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Coin Output Common Line This line allows for operation with positive or negative common systems. The interface self-configures by sensing the output common voltage supplied by the machine on the coin output common line, (pin 2 for a 15 way machine interface connector, or pin 3 for a 17 way connector). All potentials are relative to the 0 volt return line to the machine. pin 11 for a 15 way connector and pin 12 for a 17 way machine interface connector.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Binary Coded Output Mode Inhibits The channels inhibited, for a given inhibit line going high are factory set by the validators coin inhibit map option. When inhibit (A to F) is active, then coins for the channels specified in the map will be inhibited.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide ELECTRICAL INTERFACES Introduction This section gives the pin assignments for all connector interfaces used on the CashFlow® validators and it also includes timing diagrams of the signals appearing on the input and output lines. Connector 1, Machine Interface. The interface to the validator from the machine is exactly the same as those which apply to the MS/ME series validators, with the exception of pin 8 of the 17-way connector.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Separator Connector (2) This connector is used for connection to the CashFlow® 126 4 way or CashFlow® 129 8 way separators only.

CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Routing Plug Connector (3) A 22 way connector located on the front of the validator. It is used to accept a plug containing wire links or diodes that define the routing and exit path of validated coins. The routing plug is similar to that of the ME126 Active and ME129 products, but with 2 extra pins added toaccommodate coin routing for outputs G & H. NOTE: These outputs must not be confused with the outputs on Conn. 1.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide CashFlow® 126/129 separators provide control over the exit path taken by a validated coin. This is referred to as routing and is accomplished by inserting wire links into a 22 way routing plug which is inserted into connector 3 of the validator. NOTE: Fitting a routing plug to the validator will overide all factory routing settings as long as more than one link is fitted between a coin output and data pin on this connector.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Route Input Lines - Routes 1-7 The CF129 exit routes are marked as Route (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 & 7) with (8) being the default exit route, as standard. Routes 1-7 on CF129 refer to the coin routes 1 to 7, with 1 having high priority and 7 low priority. Routes 1-7 on CF126 refer to the 4 coin route outputs A, B, C and D as shown in the following table. Note: (d) is the same route as D but has a higher priority.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide ROUTING CONFIGURATION The CF126 exits routes are marked as (B, C & D) with (A) being the default exit route.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Example 2:Shows a single coin to two exits. In this example coin E goes to exit D then overflows to exit C. By linking pin 19 to pin 13 & pin 14 to pin 12 using wire links. All other coins go to default.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Connector 4, Dynamic Route Inhibit This direct input from the machine to the front reject cover of the validator is knows as the Dynamic Route Inhibit. The inhibit placed via this connector indicates that a specific route is full. To Inhibit a route this has to be grounded (i.e. active low to inhibit a route). Connector type used:- 9 pin SIL - AMP 925366. Route Inhibit Connector Pin No.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Y-chute Interface Connector Connections to the Y-chute is made with a Molex type 6471 19-way. This connector is fitted to the dual entry (coin and token) system only. It provides an interface for the machine to inhibit acceptance of any coin/token and also gives a signal to the validator to inhibit coins during token input and to inhibit tokens during coin input. This interface is not supplied with the single entry system. Pin No.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide to the Y-chute interface, and the inhibit signals are fed back to the validator interface by the host machine interface wiring, as shown below. Dual Entry System ( Coin and Token ) Validator Interface Y - Chute Interface Y-Chute Inhibits and power Machine Coin Inhibits and power Coin Outputs With single entry systems the interface is between the validator and the machine only, with no electronics fitted to the Y-chute.

CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Positive Common Voltage Range Positive Common Operation (O/P Common) This interface is selected when pin 3 is greater than +4.5 volts with respect to pin 12. (0V) Output Common Voltage: +7 volts to +26 volts with respect to pin 12. Positive Common Outputs: On: Maximum current = 40mA Saturation voltage (Opcom - Coin O/P) <1.
CashFlow® 126 and CashFlow® 129 selectors Design Guide Binary Coded Output (BCO) BCO mode is indicated by the A output being permanently active. This indicator can take up to 100 milliseconds to be established from power up. In order to ensure reliable operation of the machine the state of this output should be regularly polled (as the coin validator could be reconfigured without the power being removed).
