Title: Mc5800 dip switch settings?
Post by: BryanH on January 19, 2005, 07:17:08 pm
I just bought a Mars MC5800 off ebay ($5 plus shipping). The back of the changer has a DIP switch with 3 toggles. With some fiddling I've been able to get it to accept quarters (or not) and to make change for multiple price settings.  The switches are set OFF-ON-OFF.  I'd still like to know what the switches are actually supposed to do.  

Anyone have this info?

Thanks in advance - Bryan

Figured it out with help from the ebay seller (ebay id labsrule251)

switch 1 ON: accept Canadian & US coins, OFF: accept US only
switch 2 ON: for Hi 25cents in the coin tube, OFF: For low 25 cents.  Low means quarters go into the coin box before the quarter tube is full.
switch 3 ON: Don't accept dollar coin (saqs and suzie b's), OFF: accept
