you machine isn't picking up either the note accepter hopper or coin mech, it could be a case of loose wiring or even something as simple as a jam in one of them.
had a king pots recently wouldn't go past initialising hoppers, when setting up. after switching both hoppers, checking all wiring from hopper trays to MPU, i rang astra, turns out it was a mech fault.

I tried to check all wires, everythingi think looks ok -
I didnt have a purple dongle, so benny has helped me out there, also i bought another coin mech incase that was broken -
When i switch the machine on, it comes up "Install new hardware" - It does not install automatically, so i need to download the files and install them that way with a usb drive
Once i have done that, the red light then appears on the dongle -
But it still wont go past "Acceptors initializing" Screen - If i switch the meachine off and on again, i then need to repeat the proccess above and install the drivers again :-(

only thing i can suggest if you sure the note acceptor/mech/hopper are all ok, (have you tried them in another machine?)
and the wiring is all ok from acceptor to MPU
and the Sanken PSU has all it's voltages (could be no 24v which would effect the hopper or 12v which runs both the mech and note acceptor)
possibly CCTALK..? or whatever astras verion of cctalk is. Have you replaced the mech or NV7/9 recently? had a double action slotto with a similar fault
if none of the above the only thing i can suggest is a new IO3 board (main MPU)
remember to change jumper clips when changing IO3
if that doesn't work i think your looking at a new firefly. around £230 on advance replacement from Astra

Hi,
Thank you for all your help, at the moment benny is sending me a cctalk to try this - also bought another pc unit to see if this helps
I did try call astra, but they dont seem to be interested at all, all i can get from them is " It could be something to do with the coin mech " - but wont assist further, even though im willing to pay for whatever i need - (im not a buisness, so they wont deal with me )
I will let you know if the pc/board works though

lmao - thats a pretty good idea ha - I was being too honest hehe
The machine is now working whooo hoooo - its a little embarresing, people kept saying pull plugs out, check the wires etc etc - I did honestly do all this, then my brother gave it a shot , and it kicked in to gear lol -
For the £35 jackpot one though, it wont collect any money - But to be honest, im just glad it all works ha, been playing it non stop! 
Even won the £500 too lol -
Ty for helping though, and big thanks to benny for putting up with me ! & dr from other site
