Multi Coin Acceptor Selector
A Multi Coin Acceptor (Selector) is a hardware device used in vending machines, arcade machines, laundry systems, or any coin-operated setup. It can identify and accept multiple types of coins (based on size, weight, material, etc.) and send signals to a controller (like an Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or a microcontroller) to register the inserted coin's value.

✅ Key Features:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Coin Compatibility | Accepts multiple denominations (often 3–6 types). Can be programmed for local currency. |
| Detection Method | Uses infrared sensors, magnetic detection, and mechanical sizing to distinguish coin types. |
| Output Signal | Outputs a specific number of pulses (or logic level signals) based on the coin value. |
| Microcontroller Interface | Can be interfaced with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, STM32, PLC, etc. |
| Voltage | Typically operates on DC 12V, sometimes 5V versions are available. |
| Mounting | Comes with mounting holes for enclosure installation. |
???? Typical Specifications:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Voltage | 12V DC (some support 5V–12V) |
| Coin Types | 3 to 6 programmable types |
| Signal Output | Pulse signal (e.g., 1 pulse = 1 unit) |
| Material | Plastic + metal |
| Response Time | ≤100 ms |
| Accuracy | >95% |
???? Common Wiring:
| Coin Acceptor Pin | Function |
|---|---|
| +12V / VCC | Power supply (12V DC) |
| GND | Ground |
| COIN / OUT | Pulse signal output |
| SET / LEARN | (optional) Programming input for setting coin values |
???? How It Works:
-
Insert a Coin – User drops a coin into the slot.
-
Validation – The module checks:
-
Size
-
Thickness
-
Weight
-
Electromagnetic signature
-
-
Signal Output – If valid:
-
Outputs pulses to indicate the coin value.
-
For example, a 5-rupee coin may output 5 pulses, a 2-rupee coin may output 2 pulses.
-
-
Controller Logic – Your microcontroller counts pulses and increments the total credit accordingly.
???? Programming Coin Types (Varies by model):
-
Enter programming mode (usually by holding a button on the acceptor).
-
Insert the same coin several times to "teach" it.
-
Assign a number of pulses (value) to that coin.
-
Repeat for other coin types.
-
Exit programming mode.
Refer to the specific datasheet or manual for your model (e.g., CH-926, CH-92A, or WEI-YA coin acceptors), as programming steps vary.
???? Use Case Examples:
-
Arcade machines (coins = credits)
-
Vending machines
-
Ticketing kiosks
-
Public laundry
-
Parking systems
