AZVendor Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Unless the machine is set for free vend you will need at least a coin mech in it. If the machine is MDB then the bill validator plugs in to the machine and the coin mech plugs into the validator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZVendor Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 https://www.dsvendinginc.com/images/pdf-manuals/brio-3-FB-Programming-Manual.pdf https://www.dsvendinginc.com/images/pdf-manuals/brio-3-ES-Service-Manual_UK.pdf Do you have change in the coin tubes? If not then the machine won't know to accept a bill if it doesn't know it can pay change back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryChris Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 If it's a Mars blinking 2 times, then that doesn't mean it isn't hooked up necessarily, it usually means something has disabled it. Either the coin mech doesn't have enough coins as AZVendor mentioned, the coin mech is faulty, or the control board is disabling it. I don't know if those machines have door switches but it could disable the components when not pressed (or. Door is open). Two blinks on a Mars is usually always a coin mech problem or door switch not engaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
