Versitile enough to work with any ticket dispenser.

Selecting Continuous or Pulse Operation

Both the input and output can be independently selected for continuous or pulse operation. For Deltronic 1275 or compatible ticket dispenser both the input and the output are set for continuous operation (Dip Switch 7 = ON, Dip Switch 8 = OFF, Jumper Selector down).

INPUT	SW 7
Continuous Operation	ON
Pulse Operation	OFF

Continuous Input Operation(Deltronic 1275 compatible)

In the Continuous Input Operation the ticket drive input (pin 3 of the 8 Way JST connector) must be driven "high" to initiate ticket dispensing. The Ticketflex Maximizer will output simulated ticket notch pulses for the host game (pin 1 of the 8 Way JST connector).

Pulse Input Operation

In the Pulse Input Operation the ticket drive must be pulsed "low" to initiate ticket dispensing. The simulated notch output is not used.

OUTPUT	SW 8
Continuous Operation	OFF
Pulse Operation	ON

Continuous Output Operation (Deltronic 1275 compatible)

In the Continuous Output Operation the ticket drive output (pin 2 of the 8 Way JST connector) is driven "high" to initiate ticket dispensing. The ticket notch feedback from the dispenser is required. The Jumper Selector must be "Down".

Pulse Output Operation

In the Pulse Output Operation the ticket drive output is pulsed "low" to initiate ticket dispensing (Jumper Selector "UP"). The ticket notch feed back is not utilized. The ticket dispenser will dispense one ticket for each pulse received.

The Jumper Selector

The Jumper Selector enables to select an appropriate voltage level for the ticket drive output. This is the signal which drives the ticket dispenser. Commonly when the ticket dispenser works in continuous operation this signal has to go "HIGH" to initiate ticket dispensing (i.e.Deltronic 1275 ticket dispenser). It is usually the other way around if the ticket dispenser works in pulse operation. The input of the ticket dispenser must be usually pulsed "LOW". However, some ticket dispensers may operate with inverted voltage levels. In those cases the Jumper Selector may be used to match the Ticketflex Maximizer to the ticket dispenser.

NOTE, that when the Jumper Selector is "down" the ticket drive output should not be connected to inputs with higher than 5V voltage levels. If the Jumper Selector is "UP" an open collector output is used higher voltage levels such as 12V are allowed.

Recommendations and Important Notes

The Ticketflex Maximizer is a very universal device capable of working with different machines and ticket dispensers. Both the input & the output can be independently selected for a continuous or pulse operation. However if it is a matter of choice the continuous operation for both the input and the output is preferable to a pulse operation.

To minimize the likelihood of damage by electrostatic discharge it is recommended to check whether the ticket dispenser body is connected to the protection earth.

Although the installation of the Maximizer is very simple it should be carried out by a person who possesses an appropriate technical knowledge and is familiar with the workings of the machine.

Switch the machine off prior any dip switch adjustment otherwise the new adjustment will not take effect.
