Site-Specific Tokens
Before you begin programming, be sure that you have six of each token you plan to program. You are
responsible for supplying your own bi-metal tokens. Tokens are not available through Unitec.
The Coin Acceptor accepts tokens ranging in size from .984” – 1.125” in diameter. When programming
site-specific tokens, it is important that you take into consideration the following items:
Tokens with a diameter of .984” are commonly used at nationwide arcade/pizza stores. The IDX coin
acceptor will accept these tokens if your site-specific token is the same size.
Compare your token size with any local arcade tokens prior to programming the IDX coin acceptor to
accept your site token.
The IDX acceptor can be programmed to accept up to four different tokens. The value for each token is
programmed in the Portal software based on how many pulses are sent on the token line.
To program the IDX to accept a single token, follow the instructions below.
1.
Set the rotary-switch to position 1, 2, 3, or 4.
2.
Press the button immediately to the left of the rotary-switch one or more times depending
on the number of pulses you want that token to send.
3.
Drop six sample tokens through the coin slot one at a time, and verify that the red light
(LED) blinks several times after the last token has been entered.
4.
Reset the rotary-
switch to “0” and replace the front cover.
