Remove the two Phillips screws securing the coin meter to the cabinet and remove the coin
meter.

Use two butt splices to connect the wires to the new coin meter.

Power Distribution Service
AC Power Plate
The AC power plate provides the external AC power connection. An AC EMI Filter in the
power plate removes electrical noise that can cause interference with the hardware inside the
cabinet.
AC power from the power plate is connected to a 7-outlet AC power strip/surge suppressor in the
cabinet.
Caution: The cabinet must be connected to a secure ground to function properly.
