Hi all.

I have a "Coin Comparitor", Model "CC-16-D" from "Coin Mechanisms
Inc".

I've taken a cellphone picture of the device here in case it helps:

I don't have any documentation with it and would like to power it up.
There are 4 leads coming out of the device: Red, Yellow, Orange &
Black.
Does anyone know which lines are the power? I'm fairly certain that
Black is one of them.
Also what voltage and is it AC or DC?

PS: I'm guessing I yank out the white plastic token and replace it
with the coin of my choice?

Any hints appreciated, kind regards... Clark

If this page is to be trusted, it takes 24VAC:

Some of those drive the coin switch with a common ground to power so
it wont work on pins with the coins switches wired to the matrix.

There are many versions and voltages of that model. You'll need to
contact the manufacturer's support department (www.coinmech.com). That
way they can help you find all the markings to give you the exact
model number, the voltage it operates on, and how to wire it.
