The Collar Interruption Switch is used to detect coin that is not properly
seated in the feed mechanism. The Collar Interruption Switch is a solid-state
switch and is made by Honeywell (Honeywell part number 1XE1-3).
Unplug connector RECP38
and cut the nylon wire ties attached to the Swivel Plate to free the switch
and cord
assembly.
Take the new switch and insert the plug
end into RECP38.
Replacement
Collar Interruption Switches are usually purchased with the plug end already
wired to the switch. If, however, you have a new switch that doesn't have
a plug attached, you will have to connect the new switch to the existing plug.
Mount the micro
switch to the holder using the two M2 slotted screws.
Unclamp the Notched
Plate, lower it, put the mechanical switch in its proper position
and hold it in place with one of the M5 mounting bolts.
Check the position of the switch actuator arm. The actuator arm must be
positioned so it sits slightly below
the surface of the Notched Plate. If it is positioned above the Notched
Plate, when the Notched Plate is clamped the actuator arm will be jammed against
the Guide Plate and you will not be able to adjust the switch position later.
If it is positioned too low, the set screw will not be long enough to make
contact with the face of the collar, thus making the switch useless.
If the switch actuator arm is not positioned correctly, use the 3 mm Allen
wrench to loosen the clamp
screw on the switch actuator arm.
Then, use the 2 mm Allen wrench to turn the set
screw until the arm is in the correct position.
Take the mechanical
switch off the Notched Plate by removing the M5 mounting bolt.
Take the micro
switch and holder and mount it to the mechanical switch using the M4 bolts,
but do not fully tighten.
Position the Operator
Control Panel so you can see it while adjusting the switch. The press
must be Powered up and in Inching Mode.
Next, move the micro
switch against the switch actuator arm until the blue light inside the
FAULT
RESET pushbutton is flashing.
Push
the micro switch in just far enough to make the light start flashing. If you
move it in too far, the micro switch may get damaged when a collar interruption
actually occurs.
