Command 228 [hexE4], Modify master inhibit status
This command is used to inhibit acceptance of all coins and has same effect as command modify inhibit status with sent
with two bytes of zeros. Host sends only one byte of data. If first bit (
LSb
) is set to “0” coin selector is inhibited. Bits 1 to
7 has no influence to coin selector. Message format is:
Host sends:
[Dir] [01] [01] [E4] [Mask.] [Chk]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [00] [Dir] [00] [Chk]
ACK
Initially coin selectors are programmed with acceptance enabled. Change is stored in RAM location.
On customer demand it is possible to set inhibition as default .
Example of message string to inhibit the acceptance for coin selector(
address 2
) is:
Host sends:
[02] [01] [01] [E4] [00] [18]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [00] [02] [00] [FD]
ACK
After that coin selector acceptance will be inhibited till reset or next instruction that will change master inhibit status.

Command 227 [hexE3], Request master inhibit status
Coin selector responds with one byte data information of main inhibit status.
Only first (
LSb
) bit is used. If bit 0 is “1” acceptance is enabled, and if bit 0 is “0” coin selector is inhibited and acceptance
is disabled. Other bits has no meaning and always read as “0”. Message format is:
Host sends:
[Dir] [00] [00] [E3] [Chk]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [01] [Dir] [00] [Mask.] [Chk]
Example of message string for coin selector(
address 2
) after power-up is:
Host sends:
[02] [00] [01] [E3] [1A]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [01] [02] [00] [01] [FB]
Acceptance enabled (
default
)
Example of message string for coin selector(
address 2
) after activation of master inhibit27 is:
Host sends:
[02] [00] [01] [E3] [1A]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [01] [02] [00] [00] [FC]
Coin selector inhibited
6.5.2.15
Command 226 [hexE2], Request insertion counter
Coin selector responds with three bytes of insertion counter data.
First byte is LS byte of three byte counter in RAM. Insertion counter is set to zero after power up or reset command. It is
incremented each time a new coin is inserted in to coin acceptor. Message format is:
Host sends:
[Dir] [00] [00] [E2] [Chk]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [03] [Dir] [00] [Cunt1-LSB] [Cunt2] [Cunt3-MSB] [Chk]
Example of message string for coin selector(
address 2
) after power-up is:
Host sends:
[02] [00] [01] [E2] [1B]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [03] [02] [00] [00] [00] [00] [FA]
6.5.2.22
Command 210 [hexD2], Modify sorter paths
With this command host is able to change direction of coins in sorter if sorter is supported. Host sends two bytes of data
to select the coin position and sorter path (
direction of exit
). Firs byte of data (
LSB
) represent coin position and second
byte of data point to sorter path. ALBERICI coin selectors has support for most existing sorters that has direct drive of
coils from coin selector with open collector transistor. Most common are 3 or 4 way sorter with two coils -(Maximum
current consumption for each coil is 500 mA, but recently 5 way sorters with 3 coils are in use3 (ex. 5-way VARIANT
sorter from ALBERICI).
Message format is:
Host sends:
[Dir] [02] [01] [D2] [Coin pos.] [Sort.Path] [Chk]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [00] [Dir] [00] [Chk]
ACK if sorter path is possible to set
Coin s. responds:
[01] [00] [Dir] [05] [Chk]
NAK if coin selector does not support setting
Initially all coin position has sorter paths set to direction 1 hex[01]. If sorter is not supported, sorter path is set
initially to 0 hex[00]!
If host sends command to modify sorter path that is not existent or for coin not programmed, the coin selector will
respond with message NAK.
Example of message string for coin selector(
address 2
) redirection of coin
pos. 1
in to
path 2
is:
Host sends:
[02] [02] [01] [D2] [01] [02] [26]
Coin s. responds:
[01] [00] [02] [00] [FD]
ACK
