I have just got a CashFlow 126, I am in the process of setting up the coin mech to a pac drive, I need to setup the coin mech so that coins go a certain way.

 

My intention is to have £1 coins go down D and 10p's down A in to there own hoppers. All other coins down C and B and rejects through REJECT.

 

I need to make a routing plug so that this can happen, anyone any ideas lol.

Rejects dont come down B. They go down their own exit which isnt programmable. The issue I had with this is to make 2 different coins go down the same route as I think you need to use diodes in the routing plug wiring. To get around this, take the routing plug out and see which exits the coins go through by default. 5p,20p,50p & £2 should come out from the same exit. Build your cabinet to use the default exit for these coins. As for 10p and £1 you can use 2 separate link wires, 1 for each coin/exit

I pulled all my routing wires out to start again. Rejects are fine. My intention is for £1 coins to stay as they are, I just need 10ps or 20ps (depending on the hopper I get) going down the next one to the £1. All others in to the cash box at the bottom.

That light is just an indicator light that flashes when you put a coin in. The amount of flashes is telling you whether the coin was accepted or not (and if not, why not) it is solid lid when doing nothing as it is a power indicator too

Spent about 2 hours on this this morning, finally got it to work as I wanted it to. 10 million routing wires later.
