1. Preface to the Guide
This manual describes the functionality, adjustment and servicing of the
coin validator CV3516 (6 parallel output lines).
CV3516 is an electronic coin validator with a combined optical and
inductive measuring system. The measuring system consists of various
light barriers and coil alignments inserted in the main body.
CV3516 has 32 coin channels for a maximum of 16 different coins. If the
measured coin values of an inserted coin lie within all acceptance bands
of a programmed coin channel, then the coin validator assigns this coin
to this specified channel.
Normally at least 2 different acceptance bands are stored in a coin validator
for each coin to be accepted. Should the acceptance only be carried out in
the channel with narrow tolerance bands, the coin acceptance of the broad
channel must be blocked by switching mini-DIP switches (see coin label).
The measuring quality is primarily influenced by the steadiness
of the coin passing through the measuring system, with the
help of an integrated element which slows the coin down.
In general care should be taken to ensure an incline of 5° of
the coin validator, to make certain that the coins can pass
along the contact surface in an ideal way (see fig.1).
The coin insert should allow the coin to roll into the coin
validator by a minimum of kinetic energy.
