Thank you my friend. I don't know anything about electronics and I've been trying to install this in an arcade for 3 years. And this is because a "Brazilian guy" explains it all in an impressively complicated way (it never worked that way). As explained here, it's simple and... IT WORKS. Thank you very much.

The reason there was a grey wire commoned with the positive was for the total coin counter function. The other grey counter wire pulls down to the negative rail via a transistor to click round a mechanical counter connected between the two grey wires. It's a function that is included for professional gaming machines where there is a requirement to keep a permanent log of coins for duty/accounting purposes. The pulse output is for the logic board, Arduino or MAME interface.

@@aughanure1 i think on of your 'converter' elements is to slow.. the relay - if it is a mechanical one - can be really slow... and so misses the pulses.. also the software - if the way / input you are using is not meant for fast pulses from another electronic it eventually things the pulses are bounces from a switch and filters them out... lots of things that can go wrong here...

Thank you for your video. I am a arcade machine vendor and I usually deal with pool tables, jukeboxes etc Recently I bought a taito cocktail machine and I bought this very same coin acceptor to use in my machine on location and this coin acceptor fitted very easily on the machine. It's very handy to have a multi coin acceptor instead of the old macanical coin acceptor that only takes one coin. I just didn't understand the instructions that came with this coin acceptor. Thanks again for your help.

You’ll need to program the coin acceptor to whatever coin you want to use.

Hi Eldon. We recently started using the device as a timer. It worked for 2 days, but then stopped working. The timer/counter still works, but there is no power coming to the socket (UK). We want to use it as a timer for a washing machine (NL/EU plug). We need to use it with a UK-EU adapter. Specially bought a grounded one for this purpose. So now no power. With another adapter you can see that there is some (too low) current on the USB port, see blue light in the photo. For example, it is possible to charge your phone with this, but not via the regular plug (white). What is wrong? I have already removed the plug from the holder to check the connections properly, that seems fine now, but it still doesn't work. Could I get in contact with you for suggestions?

The use of diodes is not to reduce volts, they allow current to flow in one direction. Also this device needs 12v, not 5. Next, connecting and or using any electronic component incorrectly can damage other equipment they are connected to. The way I am using the coin acceptor is just like the other push buttons on your joystick. The only difference is that the coin acceptor has two additional wire which needs to be connected at a 12v source.

Something to note here is that both the coin acceptor and the button will allow you to add game credit, you can add a switch in series with the button if you'd like the new button to be disabled sometimes.

I’d need to know how the timer box work. If more time is added by pressing a button, then I think the easiest solution would be to connect the coin acceptor to the timer box similar to how I connected it to the usb encoder in the video. This way the timer box is activated by adding coins. Your controllers will be connected to the timer box, easiest was might be through dpdt relay(s). Use the relay to open and close the data plus and data minus wires of the usb controller(s). The power wires of the usb can remain connected.

@@shahinmirkhudayev2107 I don’t think you should connect the coin acceptor to the usb encoder. This is because you already have it connected to the timer. The timer will limit how long a game can be played, that’s the same purpose as adding coins to a specific game. Feel free to email if I’m not understanding. eldon226@yahoo

I'm sure it has two, use the same ground pin that you used for the buttons and the coin pin.

DC power adapter

@@LeesInUSA the best way is with a multimeter, if you don't have one, most power adapter have positive on the inside (hole) of the cylindrical plug and negative on the outside. You can also just connect it to the coin acceptor power input (black and red wires), if it does not work switch the wires around. That will not damage the power adapter nor the coin acceptor, assuming you're using a 12v dc power supply.

Sometimes my coin acceptor goes crazy causing the usb encoder to fail. When I unplug the coin acceptor the usb encoder works fine. Seems to be that the coin acceptor iis sending electricity to my usb encoder. Any idea?
@eldon226

You should test the wires coming from the coin acceptor going to the usb encoder using a voltmeter, you should not be getting any voltage from them. Also test them using continuity function, those wire should act as a momentary switch , meaning they should just close momentarily and then go back to normally open. You’ll need to add coins to do these test.

@@eldon226 Thanks for the response! For some reason my usb encoder works with the coin accpetor on NC mode, the problem with the NC mode is that it sends a constant pulse to the usb encoder. When i use the NO mode sometimes works and sometimes makes the usb encoder go crazy. I read that some people use a zener diode to regulate the pulse, according to these people the coin accpetor sends voltage to the usb encoder. The only difference I have with your setup is that mny usb encoder connectors havew 3 pins, one of them is for iluminate the buttons, but I am not using that wire. Maybe there is something wrong in my setup or my coin acceptor is defective.

james labz make sure the return mechanism is not faulty, push the coin return and observe what happens, watch what happens when you insert a coin to see if its because of the return mechanism. Also make sure the coins you're using are not too large. That's all I have for now.

Oh right. If this plugs through via USB, I assume it will work for Windows too, as the emulators are on Windows as well. When you plug it into your Raspberry Pi, do you need to install any drivers for the coin slot or USB device?

Oliver Wilmot it does not get plugged into the raspberry pi. It gets connected to my USB encoder very similar to how a button gets connected to the USB encoder with just 2 wires. You can do it exactly like that on windows too, with the USB encoder. If you use USB I don't know how to get that working, I know when it's connected via USB or serial you get a lot of functions, like tracking how much money has been inserted, how much of each different coins inserted, programmable time for each coin, ect. I just don't know how to that extra stuff.
