7 OPERATION
This section explains how to enter functions and
settings directly on the Optipay™ CC A-66 Coin
Changer using its various operating controls (e.g.,
the front panel Keyboard and the DIP Switch
Block), rather than using the additional program-
ming tool accessories.
Vending Change by Using the
Keyboard or Emptying the Tube
Cassette
Coins can be either vended from the change tubes
individually if a coin acceptance test is desired, or
consecutively when the tubes need to be com-
pletely emptied (e.g., before transit, for repairs, or
in case of an inventory).
Membrane inventory keys , , and apply
to the "left", "middle left", "middle right", and
"right" coin tubes respectively.
To vend tube coins individually, simply press the
corresponding , , and key. One coin
will pay out each time the specific key is pressed.
To vend several tube coins:
1. Hold down the desired , , or mem-
brane key for approximately five seconds.
The corresponding tube will automatically
empty without having to press the respective
key again.
2. Now, press any other key.
The coins will stop dispensing if not already
completely emptied.
Emptying the Change Tubes to a
Certain Fill Level
If a “float” level is configured, the change tubes
can be emptied to the tube counter’s set float level
value.
Emptying the change tubes to the set float level:
1. Press the Plus key.
An audible signal will sound and the Green
LED will begin flashing indicating that the
Coin Changer is no longer in a standard oper-
ating mode and has now entered the filling
level mode.
2. Hold down any key, for approximately five
seconds (the Green LED illuminates).
All tubes will automatically empty to the
preconfigured float level. Afterwards, two
audible signals will sound and the Green LED
will light constantly indicating that the Coin
Changer is no longer in the filling level mode,
and has returned to the operating mode.
Validator Change Filling
After an inventory or repair the tube cassette’s four
change tubes can be refilled with relevant coin
types through the Coin Validator using the key-
board.
If the Coin Changer is configured so the
inventory keys are disabled, these
membrane keys will not be active. The
device is either configured so the keyboard
can be enabled by the Vending Machine’s
control system, or so the keyboard must
be initially activated by one of the various
configuration tools (see section 11
"Configuration").
If the Coin Changer is configured so the
inventory keys are disabled, these
membrane keys will not be active. The
device is either configured so the keyboard
can be enabled by the Vending Machine’s
control system, or so the keyboard must
be initially activated by one of the various
configuration tools (see section 11
"Configuration").
In many cases the Vending Machine’s
controls will offer a filling function. In this
case they should be used, because the
control unit might not accept the filling level
capacity of the Coin Changer.
If the Cash Box contains coins, it must be
emptied, otherwise new coins directed to
the Cash Box will not be counted.
