revolution. If the pulley is located too far from the
sensor pcb, the magnetic strength will be too weak to
activate the sensor.
c. Check voltage to the sensor board
2. If the LED does flash, check the output of the hall effect
sensor pcb all the way to the ticket eater pcb.
Ticket eater will
not count with
ticket inserted in
any direction 1. Check notch count opto. LED on receiver should flash as
tickets are fed into ticket eater.
a. If LED does not flash, check power to the opto
transmitter and receiver.
b. If LED is always on, something is blocking the opto
path or the opto is dirty.
2. If LED does flash, check output of notch count opto all the
way to the ticket eater pcb.
3. Check power to barcode pcb’s and output all the way back
to ticket eater pcb.
Ticket eater counts
accurately with
barcode only up or
only down 1. Check power to and output from barcode scanner pcb
corresponding to the side that does not work.
Ticket count is
intermittent To help diagnose the problem, you can, through programming
options, change the ticket verification to notch from barcode. If the
ticket count becomes accurate, the problem is related to the
barcode. If the count is still intermittent, the problem is probably
related to the notch opto sensors.
1. Bad tickets with poor printing or out of spec barcode.
2. Clean barcode scanner pcb’s and opto notch transmitter and
receivers (if this works check pump operation and
pneumatic cleaning system for leaks).
3. Check for loose wire connections to barcode scanners or
opto notch optos
Single tickets do
not count
accurately Check that tickets travel through the ticket eater at a consistent rate
without stopping or slowing dramatically.
1. Check for debris in ticket eater
2. Check belts for tracking, breakage, stretch or extreme wear
