4 Operation
The following description refers to factory default programming of the EMS-8x.
The EMS-8x has a 3-digit LED-Display, that shows the customer the current state of the device. A
survey you can nd in the following gure.
At the beginning of a payment transaction, the unit must be free, ie the display must show the
minimum insertion. After inserting a coin EMS-8x-Door shows the remaining balance if the
minimum insertion has not yet been reached.
If the minimum insert is reached, the display stops ashing, it will show "Opn" in the display and
the door opening signal is triggered. When the door is closed and a door contact is used the
display will show „Occ“ (Occupied). After opening the door contact the unit is free and the
minimum insert is displayed. Occ“ (Occupied) is also displayed when no amount has been inserted
and the door contact is closed.
If there is no door contact connected, the "Opn" (Open) message is displayed until the deposited
amount for the time has expired.

5 Programming
5 1 Procedure
For the programming of the EMS-8x, the device has to be opened. At the control board inside of
the ISO box there are three buttons available.
By pressing the ”P” button you will enter the programming mode which is indicated in the display
by “Pro”. This state can be left by pushing the “+” button. During runtime an emergency stop can be
performed by pushing the “-” button. An emergency stop will reset the device to “free” state
By pressing the ”P” button another time you are in the parameter edit mode. The display shows
alternating a ”P”, followed by the parameter number and the value of the respective parameter.
Press the ”P” button several times until you reach the required parameter. You can nd a listing of
all parameters in Table , section 5.5. By pressing the „P“ button another time if the last paramter is
reached, all settings are stored and the EMS-8x is in “free” state again. All parameters are stored
electronically and do not loose their values even if the device is switched o. If no button is
pressed for a period of at least 30 seconds, all settings are stored automatically and the EMS-8x
changes over to “free” state.
In the following sections the 3 types of parameters, counter, operating values and switches, are
described.
5 2 Counter editing
Counters are cash counters, customer counters or hour meters. There are erasable and non-
eraseable counters. The erasable counters can be erased by pressing the ”+” or ”-”button.
Some counters have a range higher than 999. As the display has only 3-digits, the notation is
segmented on values higher than 999. The display changes between the parameter-number, the
high level digits (digits 4 - 5) and the low level digits (digits - 3). The high level digits are indicated
by the ashing decimal point at the right side. In Figure 4 you can see an example for the counter
operating hours with a counter value of 2 740 hours. If the value is lower than .000 the display
changes only between the parameter number and the low level digit display.
5 3 Adjusting operating parameters
Operating parameters are values, you can adjust the prices or the maximum time with. These
values can be increased by pressing the button ”+” and decreased by pressing the button ”-”. The
rate is either or 0, depending on the parameter. On pressing the ”+” resp. ”-” button for a longer
time, the value can be changed faster.
5 4 Switch-parameter
By means of the switches a function can be switched on or o. These parameters have
two options only, which can be changed by pressing the ”+” or ”-” button.

7 Electronic coin validator (only EMS-82)
The electronic coin validator is programmed to specied coins in dierent tolerances. Each of these
coins can be locked separately by setting a lock switch. Lock switch to ON (up) disables the
corresponding channel, lock switch to OFF (down) activates the corresponding channel.
Normal-Validation Coins are analyzed in normal tolerance ranges. This is the default factory
setting.
Strict-Validation Coins are analyzed in strict tolerance ranges. Improved detection of
counterfeits. The acceptance of the set coin type has been slightly
decreasing. The lock switch "normal" must be set to ON.
Very strict Validation Coins are analyzed in very strict tolerance ranges. Improved detection of
counterfeit coins. The acceptance of the coin type continues to decline.
The lock switch "normal" and "strict" must be set to ON.
Blocking switch If the coin should not be accepted at all, all validation channels for this
coin must be blocked.
