2. Introduction
The SR5 now incorporates an advanced programming feature named “MechToolTM”, which
uses the program button, diagnostic pins and the rotary switch. The LED is used to guide the
user through the operations. It is assumed the SR5 is powered-up in parallel mode and all the
relevant internal Eeprom settings are set appropriately to perform the functions listed.
Note: MechToolTM ON, must be specified when ordering, otherwise the following features will
NOT be available.
2.1 Diagnostics
This feature enables certain self checks / tests to be made on the SR5, these include:-
2.2 Inhibit / Accept line and Inductive Noise Test
This mode can be used to check the inhibit and accept lines are working correctly. It will
also indicate the level of environmental noise detected by the sensors.
2.3 Solenoid and Inductive Sensor Flash Test
This mode checks the operation of the solenoids used in the SR5 and the status of the
sensor coils – whether they are functioning or not.
2.4 Opto Test
This mode checks the status of the opto’s used in the SR5 and the dual coin entry rundown.
2.5 MechToolTM
MechToolTM has been added to the SR5 to enable the customer to change various features
and options, within the product, without the use of an external programmer. While this is a
powerful and useful feature, if used without caution, changes can be made which may affect
the operation of the SR5.
USE WITH CARE.

4. Diagnostics
Three diagnostics modes are available via connector 4 (Figure 1). The connector has two
inputs. If either or both inputs are Low then diagnostics mode can be activated. When both
inputs are High – not connected - (inactive) the SR5 is in normal run mode.
To enter diagnostics mode, set the jumpers to perform the required test, set the rotary switch to
position 0, then press the program button 3 (Figure 1) until the LED flashes Yellow.
Note: If the LED stays Green then Diagnostics is not available.
4.1 Inhibit / Accept line and Inductive Noise Test
This mode is used for checking inhibit and accept lines in a loop-back test. Only the status
of inhibit lines 1 to 6 are used.
The inhibit line must be Low to activate the corresponding accept line.
Inhibit 1 ⇒Accept 1
Inhibit 2 ⇒Accept 2
Inhibit 3 ⇒Accept 3
Inhibit 4 ⇒Accept 4
Inhibit 5 ⇒Accept 5
Inhibit 6 ⇒Accept 6
Inhibit 7 and 8 ⇒Not used
The SR5 will also ‘clap’ the accept gate a number of times, depending on the level of noise
present on the sensors. The more ‘claps’, the more noise.
¾0 claps No detectable noise.
¾1 to 5 claps Small amount of noise – acceptable.
¾> 5 claps Unacceptable amount of noise.
This only happens when the diagnostics mode is first entered. In order to repeat, press the
program button, the LED will turn green. Press the program button again until the LED
flashes yellow.
To exit the diagnostic tests, remove the links and press the program button until the LED
turns Green.

4.2 Solenoid and Inductive Sensor Flash Test
4.21 SOLENOID TEST
This mode is used for checking the operation of the solenoid drives.
The inhibit line must be Low to activate the corresponding solenoid.
Inhibit 1 ⇒Sorter solenoid 1, Bottom flap
Inhibit 2 ⇒Sorter solenoid 2, Top flap
Inhibit 3 ⇒Manifold solenoid
Inhibit 4 ⇒Accept gate solenoid
Inhibit 5 to 8 ⇒Not used
If there is no sorter fitted then inhibits 1 and 2 will be inactive. Likewise, if the active
manifold is not fitted for 8-way sorting, then inhibit 3 will be inactive.
4.22 INDUCTIVE SENSOR FLASH TEST
The SR5 will also show the status of the inductive coils on the accept lines.
An inactive accept line indicates there is a fault.
Accept 1 ⇒Inductive sensor 1 status (Active = OK)
Accept 2 ⇒Inductive sensor 2 status
Accept 3 ⇒Inductive sensor 3 status
Accept 4 ⇒Inductive sensor 4 status
Accept 5 ⇒Inductive sensor 5 status
Accept 6 ⇒On
To exit the diagnostic tests, remove the links and press the program button until the LED
turns Green.

4.3 Opto Test
This mode is used for checking whether the various opto electronic devices used in the
product are working correctly.
ON = opto blocked or not fitted.
Accept 1 ⇒DCE coin opto
Accept 2 ⇒DCE token opto
Accept 3 ⇒Sorter optos
Accept 4 ⇒Off
Accept 5 ⇒Off
Accept 6 ⇒Off
The test is interactive, so the optos can be blocked and unblocked with a small piece of card
to see if they are working correctly.
The only way to distinguish between a blocked opto – fault – and a missing opto is to
physically look for the optic.
Note: These tests are only useful if the relevant hardware is fitted, i.e. DCE chute and sorter.
4.4 Exit Diagnostics
To exit the diagnostic tests, remove the links and press the program button until the LED
turns Green.

5. Token Selection.
The rotary switch and the program button allow the user to disable tokens or select another
programmed token.
To select the token, ensure that the SR5 is powered up through the main parallel connector.
Figure 2: Rotary switch features
5.1 Token Disable - Position 0.
In this position, token acceptance is disabled.
To use:
¾Turn the rotary switch to position 0.
¾Press and hold the program button, the LED will change to RED.
¾Release the program button.
¾The LED will change back to GREEN.
Note: The program button must be released when the LED changes colour to RED, otherwise
the SR5 will enter MechToolTM mode if the program button is pressed for more than 2 seconds.
5.2 Token Selection - Position 1 to C
11 tokens can be pre-programmed into the SR5 and selected on the rotary switch. Token
12, (position C), is reserved for the Teach & RunTM token.
To use:
¾Turn the rotary switch to the desired token position, 1 to C.
¾Press and hold the program button, the LED will change to RED.
¾Release the program button.
¾The LED will change back to GREEN.
