1. INTRODUCTION AND DESCRIPTION OF COMPONENTS

This Technical Manual provides technical information corresponding to the coin validator in the
XV series which is part of the Modular range.

The coin validators are apparatus that, within the machine, and forming part of it, have the

task of selecting and validating coins introduced into the machine and can work in different

ways: parallel, credit and timer. The price of a credit or game, the time the game lasts and 2

tokens and their classification can be programmed.

In the rest of this Technical Manual the coin validators in the Modular XV range

will be called validator or validators

When the word configurable is used in the Technical Manual it means that the

parameter or characteristic it refers to can be programmed by the user to suit the

needs of the customer.

This programming is done using the PC application called HEUS (User Tool).

1.1 MODELS IN THE XV RANGE

The validators are divided into two groups depending on the sensor module:

• XV-6S

This is a validator with high sensorisation, whose sensor module has 6 optic sensors, 6

inductive sensors and one acoustic sensor. It is recommended when a high

discrimination of coins is necessary, principally for frauds.

• XV-2i

This is a validator with normal sensorisation, whose sensor module has 6 optic sensors

and 2 inductive sensors.

1.2 PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

These validators are characterised by:

¾ All the coin validators in the Modular range, and therefore in the XV series, are

compatible with the industry standards

¾ The coin entry is in the top part.
¾ The rejected/refunded coin goes to the bottom right.

Coin entry

Coin accepted Coin rejected

¾ The accepted coin exit is located on the left as in the L range and the opposite of the A

range.

¾ It has four studs on the side for its placement in the front plate.

1.3 TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The most relevant technical characteristics are:

Ô Independent sensor module which is common for all models

Made using the most advanced technology, among other things, it has a flash memory

which allows the firmware to be programmed and teleprogramming from a PC or using

the TL20 or TL21 tool.

The sensor module is interchangeable with all the other models in the Modular range,

which is a great innovation in the logistics process.

To remove the sensor module it is necessary to remove the four screws indicated by the

arrows.

Ô Output module

As with the sensor module, it is made with the latest technology and also has a flash
memory that allows the firmware to be programmed and teleprogramming from a PC or

using the TL20 or TL21 tool.

The great innovation incorporated in this module is the configuration file that can be

changed by the user to modify all the configurable parameters and in this way adapt the

validator to the user’s necessities.

The changing of the configurable parameters is done with a PC or with an application

called HEUS (user tool).

Technical information: MODULAR VALIDATOR XV 6

The outlet module is unique for the different series or references that make up the

Modular range.

Ô Power supply and electrical consumptions for the standard model

The nominal voltage is 12 Vdc or 24 Vdc admitting a minimum of 10 Vdc and a

maximum of 27 Vdc.

Electrical consumption:

Validating a coin 50 mA

Maximum (activating the

acceptance gate)

Average per coin 235 mA

Powered at 12 Vcc.

400 mA

Ô Admission of coins

The validator admits 32 types of different coins, of which 2 can be reprogrammed by

the operator on site by putting the validator in “learning” mode.

Technical information: MODULAR VALIDATOR XV 7

Ô String detection system

All the models include an efficient string detection system which detects any attempt at

fraud using a string attached to a coin to obtain free credits.

String detection system

Ô Mean time between failures (MTBF)

Under normal working conditions, these validators have a MTBF of 1.3 validators of

every 100 per year.

Ô Mean cycles between failures (MCBF)

Under normal working conditions, these validators have a MCBF of 840,000 coins.

Ô Construction material

The latest generation plastics resist wear and dissipate static electricity, are made of

high rigidity and are dimensionally stable at high temperatures and humidity (low

absorption levels) and resist saline deposits.

Ô Refund code

It has a system that generates a “refund code” when the validator door is opened. This

code can be activated or deactivated by the user and is generally used to indicate to the

machine that a refund is being requested.
