n Systems for Car Parks and Leisure Centres 1 Introduction At an entry the coin feeder is located directly in front of the hopper. In case of a ChipCoin request the coin goes from the hopper to the coin feeder, where it is guided through the coin channel via stopper and reject magnets and coded and read by an installed antenna coil. At an exit the ChipCoin inserted by the customer goes directly into the coin feeder.

In this way insertion of foreign matter by pedestrians (vandalism) is prevented.

In standard condition the shutter is opened and the stopper magnet blocks the ChipCoin.

n Systems for Car Parks and Leisure Centres 2.4.2 Inside 2.4.2.1 Cover removal For removal of the cover the coin feeder should be taken out of its bracket. Coin channel and cover are held together by a bayonet catch. After pushing the cover upwards it can be removed.

In order to increase its capacity and to make refilling easier, a funnel has been mounted on top of the hopper. In order to check the supply of ChipCoins, the funnel has been provided with viewing holes. Control and voltage supply occur via a connection to the ChipCoin interface. Coin output occurs via a chain.
PAGE 9
n Systems for Car Parks and Leisure Centres 3.2 Maintenance and service The hopper is maintenance-free. Should it ever occur that, despite plentiful supply of coins, no ChipCoin is outputted, then possibly a jam may have occurred. Check to see if the hopper upon a ChipCoin request makes a short movement. If this is the case and no jam obtains in the coin feeder, then take the hopper out and empty it. Jams can normally be eliminated by shaking the hopper. You will hear if the ChipCoin releases.

n Systems for Car Parks and Leisure Centres 4 ChipCoin interface The Chip-Coin interface circuit board assumes control of the stopper, shutter and rejector magnets as well as analysis of information from the reflex coupler and the photoelectric barrier as well as hopper control. 4.

It has a serial interface for connection to the single-board computer or the PMK computer as well as having two antenna connections. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
