    The machine consists of two units, and the switch defines to which unit the pulse will be sent.

    Present card will send the pulses according to the switch selection.

    Wiring

      • Send pulse - use Pulse 1 & Pulse 2
      • Read switch mode - use Door Open (J6:6)

     

    Pulse Telemetry Mode (Use Buttons)

    When selecting a specific product, the consumer will follow a vending machine process like this:

      • The consumer presents their card.
      • The consumer is prompted to choose the desired product.
      • The consumer selects a product at the press of a button.

    Wiring

      • Send pulse - Use Pulse 1 & Pulse 2
      • Button 1 - Use Door Open (J6-pin6)
      • Button 2 - Use MCR_DT2 / PROXY_RXD (J8-pin8)

    Both inputs are pulled up internally, and when the consumer presses the button, a connection is made to the ground point.

    Table 6 - Pulse telemetry relay mode

    • To activate relay, the signal levels must be changed.
    • If the relay is set to high, then it will be active when this signal is at a high level.
      For example: If the machine needs to be active for three minutes, the device will change the signal to a high level for three minutes (refer to Figure 16 below).
    • Relay mode can support dual machines.
 

Wiring

    • Touch Device - One output is connected to PULSE 3(J8:5) and the second output is connected to PULSE 4(J8:7).
    • Amit - One output is connected to MONITOR_232_TX(J8:4) and the second output is connected to MDB_RS232_TX(J6:11).
