Does this sound right? Re filling machine
Hi all
I mentioned in my previous thread that my fruit machine (barcrest Pacman power up) was putting pound coins into the bottom tub even though the hopper was no where near full. I was unsure on how to correct this and after playing about this is what i did.
I attached 2 fobs to the sensors and activated hopper dump, i then pressed the start button and it emptied out the cash from the hopper. It said something like 211 short, something like that.
I then thought i just had to use the refill key and put it all back in, but when i touched the refil fob it started at 211 so when i was putting coins in it was going down to 210 209 etc.
so i did hopper dump again, and again it said i was short, this time i did another hopper dump so it said i was short by 250 then when i refilled it counted down from 250 to about 135 so i knew i had put 115 in the hopper.
Does this sound right or should it have been counting up when i used refill?
I am not sure if i have done this right or not?

Thanks so just so I know for future if hopper goes out of synch with dumping etc is it best to dump hopper twice does this reset it to zero?
As when I first dumped hopper it said I was short by 211 so I started filling it and expected it to start at 250 but it didn't. Only when I dumped it twice in succession it went to 250 short
