AL55/66 Technical manual Version 1.1
Host sends:
[02] [00] [01] [F8] [05]
Coin s. respond:
[01] [01] [02] [00] [00] [FC]
6.5.2.3 Command 243 [hexF3], Request data base version
The respond to that command is version of coin data base. Version of data base is
important for coin selectors with remote programming support.
For all ALBERICI coin selectors type AL55/66 current data base version is 00.
Message format is:
Host sends:
[Dir] [00] [01] [F3] [Chk]
Coin s. respond:
[01] [01] [Dir] [Ver.] [Chk]
Example of message string for coin selector(
address 2
)
is:
Host sends:
[02] [00] [01] [F3] [0A]
Coin s. respond:
[01] [01] [02] [00] [00] [FC]
6.5.2.4 Command 240 [hexF0], Test solenoids
Host sends one byte mask to determinate which solenoid must be tested.
Coin selector accept gate solenoid or sorter solenoid will be switched on for period of
100 ms and after that, ACK message will be transmitted. Message format is:
Host sends:
[Dir] [01] [01] [F0] [Mask.] [Chk]
Coin s. respond:
[01] [00] [Dir] [00] [Chk]
ACK
Example of message string for coin selector(
address 2
) acceptance gate test is:
Host sends:
[02] [01] [01] [F0] [01] [0B]
Coin s. respond:
[01] [00] [02] [00] [FD]
Single click
-> 100 ms, ACK
Bit position for output that is used to drive sorter coil are:
bit 0 = accept gate coil
bit 1 = sorter coil “A”(out 6/pin 4)
bit 2 = sorter coil “B”(out 5/pin 3)
bit 3 = sorter coil “C”(out 4/pin 10)
If output selected with bit in mask is not programed for sorter activation it will not be
activated but coin selector will still response with ACK.
6.5.2.5 Command 238 [hexEE], Test output lines
Host sends one byte mask to determinate which output line must be tested.
Coin selector output line that correspond to bit set in the mask will be pulsed for 100
ms and after that, ACK message will be transmitted. Message format is:
Host sends:
[Dir] [01] [01] [EE] [Mask.] [Chk]
Coin s. respond:
[01] [00] [Dir] [00] [Chk]
ACK
