Coin Acceptor

What is the difference between the coin acceptor EMP 800.13 and the EMP 800.04?
The coin acceptor EMP 800.13 is connected to the COM port of your PC with the COM-400 interface. The coin acceptor only accepts coins while software is running (not during the boot sequence of your PC). The coin acceptor gets power from an external power supply.

The coin acceptor EMP 800.04 can be programmed by dip switches at the casing of the coin acceptor. It is connected to the LPT port of your PC and powered by the power supply of your PC. The coin acceptor accepts coins as soon as it has power (this means also during the boot sequence of your PC). This model is not recommended for gaming PCs or PCs with very old hardware (small processor, small memory).


My parallel port coin acceptor takes coins without saving the credit in the software. What can I do?
If you use your PC at high capacity it can happen that the PC does not get the impulse which was sent by the coin acceptor. So the credit is not given in the software. This case mainly happens when using games or similar programs. If you equip your PC with a better CPU and/or more memory or by reprogramming the coin acceptor through the blue image GmbH the usage of the coin acceptor can be improved.


Will the credit be lost when the customer logs off?
Yes, unless the customer saves his credits on a member account (optional).
