Hmmm...I'm using the IMPACT tech errors - not sure which tech the machine in question is though. A payout error would be 01-44 in the case of £1 [shown as '0144']....I think.
When you turn the machine on, does it make a crunching noise as well as the error messages? A machine will normally try to payout from the hopper before sending an alarm signal. Having said that, if the machine uses tubes, it could be that a tube is empty.
I'd recommend that you post over at
www.fruitforums.com and
www.mfme.co.uk as well as over here - simple reason being that not everyone over there posts over here, and the MFME site is where the people that code the JPeMulator stay.
Either way, I hope you get it sorted ASAP
