G-13.6 Description of the variants
Totalizers
A totalizer is a coin validator with a credit function. These units have
no channel allocation. Instead the value of the inserted coins is
determined and added up until an adjustable comparison value (price)
is reached. As soon as the pre-set value has been reached the
totalizer triggers a function. There is a total of two output lines that
can be adjusted indenpently of each other. In the Timer variant these
are functional lines, whereas they are price lines in the
2-price totalizer.
Additionally all totalizers are equipped with two DIL switch
arrangements with eight switches each. They serve to adjust the
sales price (not valid for Timer variant/TV totalizer). The adjustment
is done in a binary code. The value of each switch is indicated below
the switch. By selecting a combination of these eight switches any
value between 1 and 255 can be adjusted. The step number serves as
a multiplier for the lowest coin value when calculating the price. The
acceptance limit is 230.
If one of the two prices is set to 0 the corresponding functional line is
always activated and cannot be erased. This is the so-called free
sales mode.
Tokens can be used to activate the functional line directly and
simultaneously increase the credit by the adjusted value of the price
switch.
Multiple sales
In case of inserting too much money there are three possibilities
concerning the remaining credit which can be adjusted by the NRI:
•
Variant A:
2-price variant
– The remaining credit is erased after a sale.
– Multiple sales are not possible.
– Both prices can be used.
– Acceptance is blocked as soon as the higher price has been
reached.
