Technical information:
MODULAR VALIDATOR XV
10
Inside the
sensor
module
is the
“string detector system”. An electro-mechanical system to foil
any attempt at fraud using a string tied to the coin. The system is based on an infrared beam
passing through a hole in the
shutter
. The beam is interrupted when the string attached to the
coin tenses and moves the
shutter
. The
validator
interprets this signal as a fraud attempt and
inhibits the coin.
The coin entry rocker
is designed to
stabilize the speed at which the coins move
through the interior of the
validator
.
