Driver is off, but SR3 continues receiving currencies

[vilosh]

Hello Dave,
I need that you say to me how I can solve the following problem:

I have a SR3, and paylink when in my application, the transaction already has finished, i send the instruction: disableinterface(), so that the devices no longer work. But the SR3 continues receiving currencies, later I left driver USB, and still it receives currencies.
How I can controls through programming that when the transaction finishes the SR3 no receives currencies.

Thaks and regards

[davebush]

The sequence you describe should have inhibited the SR3.

There is a chance that previous testing had left the system unstable - but if you can repeat the error with MilanDiag running, you should be able see the Paylink reacting to your application and attempting to inhibit the SR3. You should be able to understand the output - if you can't, then post it and I'll have a look.

Hi Dave,

This is the information of paylink when disableinterface() and when enabledinterface()

i put in to SR3 $ 0.20
$ 0.10 when disabledinterface and
$ 0.10 when enabledinterface()

When disabledinterface SR3 continuing reciving coins

Look please

This is the part where Paylink correctly enables the interface (it set the inhitibs to 0fff). Unfortunately You've not got the corresponding part where you then turn off the interface, and Paylink should set the inihibits to 0000.

Can you try again?

Also woth checking is that the acceptor isn't faulty. It should power up inihibited, so does it accept coins if you just power it on, without the cctalk data line connected to Paylink?

[vilosh]

Dave:

here I am again with the messages of the interface, some idea?

The Paylink is operating perfectly!

I've checked with Money Controls, who say:

SR3's have selectable options at time of ordering. A typical parallel SR3 configuration has Credit Poll - 0ms, and dip switch inhibits (The unit will ignore the internal /cctalk eprom inhibits) A typical serial SR3 configuration has Credit Poll - 1000ms, and cctalk / eprom inhibits (The unit will ignore the dipswitch inhibits.) All configurations will respond to cctalk messages and provide coin events.

It sounds as though your SR3 is configured as parallel, you should return it and ask for a serial configuration.

If you need confirmation, I can get them to look up your model from the part / model number from the front of the unit (Located on the silver label on the gate). It should start something like BSR3 or BB321.

[vilosh]

Thanks,

my SR3 model is FB321DED00003,

i hope that the initial configuration was serial

if i have pararel sr3, i can anything else for controller my SR3??

[davebush]

Hi,

I've checked with Money Controls, and your part is parallel. The only way you’re going to be able to control the inhibits is by replacing it with a serial version.

Attached is the specification sheet from Money Controls

The two key parts are:
Credit Poll - which is set to OFF and
EEPROM Inhibits / DIL Switch Inhibits - which is set to DIL.
