13. Sorting Modes
13.1 Routing Plug (4 way sorting only)
The routing connector is an 18-way 0.1” pitch DIL header.
Shown below are the coin positions and the sorter paths.
Note: The default path is A and coin 8 ALWAYS goes to the default.
Note: For coins 9 to 16 the paths are the same as coins 1 to 8.
Figure 11: Routing Plug Connections
13.2 Using the routing plug
Note: The sequence of sorting using the routing plug is D – C – B – A.
13.3 EEPROM mode (4-way / 8-way sorting)
This mode allows any coin to be sorted to a maximum of 4 paths + the relevant default path.
e.g. 4-way could be coin 2 to path C, then D, B, default A. See
Figure 7
.
In this example both coins 1 and 2 are diverted to
path D. (Any number of coins can be connected
like this as long as there is a protection diode -
1N4148 - inserted between the coin position and
the path as shown - Cathode to path connection.
In this example coin 5 will divert to path C then to path B (see
above note).
If path B, override to path C is required, path C must first be
overridden - coins will sort down path B. When path B is full,
the override can be removed from C - coins will sort to path C.
Here, coins 1 and 2 will sort to path D.
If path D is then overridden, coin 1 will sort to
DEFAULT (A) and coin 2 will sort to path C.
If path C is then overridden coin 2 will also sort
to the DEFAULT (A).
