T he entry bezel and the Y-chute options can be used with either the CashF low ® 126 system or CashF low ® 129 system. The CashF low ® 126 can be supplied for fitting into a short channel, so long as the machine has suitable mounting points for the bez el and Y-chute .
The e lectrical connections and interfaces to eac h variant of CashF low ® 126 and CashF low ® 129 are ide nt ical , and are found in the same locations. (A) Machine Interface - This provides power to the validator and carries the coin inhibit signals from the machine and coin outputs to the machine.

CashFlow ® 129 System Installation The system consists of a channel , Y-chute, CashFlow ® 129 validator, 8-way separator, manifold and tube collar plate. This is su pplied as a compl ete system, but should you need to replace any part of it do so only in a set sequence, starting from near the to p.
Removal of Manifold and Collar Plate q The manifold is suppor t ed in position by four lugs which slot into the side plates of the channel. It is retained there by two catches, as is the collar plate at the bottom.
ACCEPTANCE AND ROU TING When the product is successfully mounted you will need to confirm that it is set up correctly to accept good coins/tokens and direct them to w h ere you want them to go. First things first q Press and release the reject button on the machine .
PRODUCT FEATURES Th e CashFlow ® 126 and CashFlow ® 129 products have the flexibility to change certain settin gs such as varying the coin-set that it handles, or new routing for some of the coins/tokens.
CONFIGURATION Validator Interface Connector The interface to the validator from the machine is exactly the same as those which apply to the MS/ME series validators , with the exception of pin 8 of the 17-way connector Connector 1 can accept either 15 pin or 17 pin interface connectors.
Assembl ing a 22 -Way Routing Plug While the links are readily inserted into the r outing plug by hand without specialist tools, care is needed to ensure that they are fitted the correct way round, particularly with the doide version, so that the barb i n the pin engages with the recess in the plug.
Coin and token values as shown on the coin set label are expressed in the following text as channels. The relative positions of these channels and coins/tokens are shown on the table below.
Route Inhibit Connector The function of the route Inhibit Connector is to signal when specific exits, external to the product, are in a “Full” co ndition. Signals from the machine ensure that, while the “Full” condition continues, further coins/tokens directed to that exit will be re-routed to an alternative exit.
Using the Rotary Data S witch and Configuration Switches Rotary Data Switch The rotary data switch is used in conjunction with the configuration switches . By pointing the arrow in the middle of the switch, using a fine screwdriver, data can be entered into the product .
