Defective sensors 

A high level sensor is activated while the low is 
not.   Either a defective top sensor or a foreign 
object stuck at the top of the tube.  Usually, this 
message  will  be  visible  after  a  payout  of  the 
tube having the error. 

Device is short 

There is short circuit inside the unit under test. 

Escrow return 

The coin return lever was activated. 

No credit 

Coin  accepted  and  directed  to  the  tube  or  the 
cashbox.  However, that coin was not detected 
in  either  place.    Check for  jammed  path.    Also 
check for coin sensors in acceptor. 

No tube payout 

No coin value linked to this push button.  Even 
if  the  tube  is  present,  it  may  have  an  identical 
value as another.  In MDB mode, two 25¢ tubes 
will  be  seen  as  one  tube.    As  an  example,  a 
coin changer having 3 x 25¢ and 2 x 1$ tubes 
will be seen as a two-tube changer (25¢ & 1$). 

Pay out busy 

Changer  is  telling  the  VMC  it  is  currently  dis-

 

pensing change. 

Please wait 

The CTX is waiting. 

ROM Checksum 

The  checksum  of  the  coin  changer  does  not 
error match with its internal memory because of 
corrupted data.  Unit must be sent to a service 
centre. 

Routing error 

A  validated  coin  did  not  follow  the  intended 
route.  It went to the cashbox but was meant to 
go  the  tubes  or  vice-versa.    Check  the  gate  in 
the acceptor. 

Tube jam 

The coin changer has detected a coin jam into 

 

one of its tubes. 

Slug 

Unknown coin inserted.  If the coin is genuine, it 
means the coin acceptor has totally lost its rec-
ognition  capability  (memory  erased)  and  must 
be sent to a service center for re-programming. 

 
In a Level 2 coin changer, the state of the tubes will be indicated as fol-
low: 

HI= 

Both sensors, low and high, are covered with coins. 

LO= 

Low sensor is covered with coins. 

NO= 

No  sensors  are  covered  with  coins,  most  likely,  the 

 

tube is  empty. 

DEF=  Defective sensor in tube.
