I just gat a s2000 machine in and it had on the display "out of service" so I cleared and the set the denom. It does not have a coin compairitor but does have a ticket printer, if that even matters. After the clear and set denom procedure, the machiine came up fine, went through the normal initialization and got to the "insert coin" and was ready to play, but even upon power up the bill acceptor did not cycle like it should nor is the bill entry light on either. Any ideas here? Coul I have missed something during the set denom/configuration settings?

Thanks,

David

Try running the auto config under #4 menu. I think it's 4.3.

i got to that part and it just says bill acceptor installed. Is there something else to do in this menu?

press the Spin button and it should start the aut config cycle

i did and it did not do anything, just went back to "bill acceptor installed" message

Did you get message that auto config was in process?  Make sure you are pressing the spin and not the max spin button.

i would reseat the cash box plus reseat the wba and check the bv try it on another working machine if you have one......does the bv power through at start up?

it does not pwer through upon power up, but I will try this bill acceptor in a working machine.

there is a option for bill acceptor in the settings but i cant remember if you need a 45 config chip.......

BV enable or config for the most part does not need a key chip to do it.

I know on a S+ the BV will cycle on power up even if there is no MPU. Doesn't the S2000 work the same way (BV at least cycles as long as it has power)?

i put a working bill acceptor in that machine and it works fine now. Now all I got to do is find a working bill acceptor for this s2000 now. Guess I will post a WTB in the classifieds section. Thanks again for the help guys,

David

either jim at better slots has them or jim at blueridge has them.......both are great guys!!! glad it was a simple fix....

Poppo  you are correct, S 2000 BV will cycle even if no MPU is installed. 

Here are a few pics of the top and bottom of 2 of the validators, looks like these is a 32 pin chip missing?

Looks like the whole validator is missing.  :72-

<edit> never mind, pictures now showed up.  :96-

here are the other 2 bill validators that are not working, they do not have a large socketed chip in the botoom like the previous ones.

What you have here are both flashed and eprom type transports.  What you also have are Canadian.  The fact that they don't cycle after boot tells you one of a couple of things.  They either have a bad head or transport, and / or they might be fixed by adding the missing eprom or paying a Vendor to re-flash them.  The smart move however might be to work out a sale or trade with a member like Wayne (A69Mopar)....I hear he likes Moosehead beer.

He's also partial to In-N-Out, or In-N-Oot, as he would say.   :150-  :72- :72- :72-

Not to  :266- this thread, but Wayne remains undefeated as the only person I've ever known in over 17 years to EVER get an incorrect order at In-N-Out.. and he did it on his FIRST TRY!! :5-
Apparently, he's really good at it; his wife wasn't even surprised when we told her. However, I was when he discovered it. :208- :208-
