Hi Guys & Girls,

Here is an interesting conundrum for all the boffins out there!

I have a Bell Fruit Scorpion 5 machine with a NV10 note acceptor - everything works fine apart from after about 5-10 mins play the machine forgets it has a note acceptor attached.
Open a door and a note mech fault appears on the alpha.
Re-boot and everything is fine.

I swapped the note acceptor - same fault.
So could this be a problem with the Scorpion 5 board or power supply? No other problems manifest themselves... Just the note acceptor.

I've had loads of Barcrest MPU4 and MPU5 machines in the past and had no problems.

This Bell Fruit has been a bag of poo from day one!

I appreciate any help/assistance in this matter from any techie people out there.

Thank you for taking time to read my post and have a great weekend.

i would check the battery , a good way to do this is put £1 in leave it overnight and in the morning if the £1 is still there its ok , if not replace the battery hth chris

Chris,

Thanks for that - thought about the battery - looks a pain to change - but I should do it as a precaution anyway.

Thanks for the reply.
