1. Connect the GPIO2(Pin3) going to "Coin" pin usually the white cable that came with the Coin Slot. 2. Connect the +12V Red cable from the coin slot to the +12V power supply 3. Connect the ground Black cable from the coin slot to the -12V power supply 4. Connect the same ground Black cable to any of the ground pins on the Raspberry Pi (Pin6, Pin9, Pin14, Pin20, Pin25, Pin30, Pin34, Pin 39) 5. Set the coin slot switches to “fast” and “NO”
1. Connect the GPIO2(Pin3) going to "Coin" pin usually the white cable that came with the Coin Slot. 2. Connect the +12V Red cable from the coin slot to the NC port of the relay 3. Connect the +12V cable to the positive port of the Female DC Barrel Jack 4. Connect the ground Black cable from the coin slot to the negative port of the Female DC Barrel Jack 5. Connect the same ground Black cable to any of the ground pins on the Raspberry Pi (Pin6, Pin9, Pin14, Pin20, Pin25, Pin30, Pin34, Pin 39) 6. Connect the Raspberry Pi 5V(Pin2) to Relay VCC Port (This is +5V) 7. Connect the Raspberry Pi GPIO3(Pin5) to Relay IN port (Signal Out) 8. Connect the Raspberry Pi only 1 ground pin (Pin6, Pin9, Pin14, Pin20, Pin25, Pin30, Pin34, Pin 39) to Relay GND port (Ground) 9. Set the coin slot switches to “fast” and “NO”
1. Connect the on-board Network Port (RJ45) of the Raspberry Pi/Orange Pi going to the ISP’s Modem or Switch. This network will be the source of the internet connection (PLDT Subscribers: Some modems limits the users to only use LAN Port1, other ports are disabled. We recommend using a network switch if you have more than 1 devices that uses the LAN.) 2. Connect the USB to LAN adapter to one of the USB ports of the Raspberry Pi/Orange Pi. 3. Connect the USB to LAN adapter Network Port (RJ45) to the Access Point/Bridge (If using an indoor wifi router, use port 1. Do not use the WAN port) 4. Make sure to disable the DHCP Server/Feature of the Access Point/Bridge (Note: Most WiFi repeaters are not capable for this type of network application) 5. Plug the 5V power supply to the Raspberry Pi/Orange Pi and the other end to the 1 to 3 Ports AC Outlet Adapter 6. Plug the 12V Barrel Jack to Female Barrel Jack and plug the other end to 1 to 3 Ports AC Outlet Adapter
