MODULAR X6 CCTALK VALIDATOR 13
3.9 Error management
If a Validator receives an incomplete message (reception timeout) or with an incorrect
checksum, it will not carry out another action and it will reset the communication variables and
prepare to receive a new message. The Machine, on not receiving a reply to any message sent,
can choose to resend the same message.
On the other hand, if the Machine receives an incomplete message (reception timeout) or with
an incorrect checksum, it can choose to resend the same message.
In any case, when there is an error in the reception of a message, there is no defined NACK
message, which simplifies the implementation of multi-slave protocol and reduces collisions.
If a Validator receives a command that it is not ready to execute, it responds with a NACK
message.

START UP PROCEDURE
In the following paragraphs the sequence of commands necessary for the Validator to be able
to accept coins after a reset or power-up is indicated. The sequence indicated is the minimum
necessary. Another sequence can be used: with a different order of commands and/or more
complex.
It is assumed that:
-
There is a Validator programmed with the coins to use, powered at the recommended
voltage (12 Vdc to 24 Vdc.)
-
The CCTALK address of the Validator is known (default: 2)
-
The poll time required is known
Sequence of commands:
-
Command ENTER PIN NUMBER [218]. This command is only necessary if a PIN
protection is used.
