Coin counter (cctalk)

[jjacob]

Hello all.

I need to count coins from a coin counter that uses 'cctalk' to communicate to the motherboard.
So, i was thinking in 'sniffing' the bus.

I've searched for code examples, but i found nothing.
I just need some help to start ...

Does anybody have some code for 'cctalk' ? Just some
simple code to read the bus ... then i would adjust
for my needs.

Thank you for your help.

Downloads in the bottom right corner of the page.

It is just a basic serial packet at 9600bps (older versions 4800bps). You need to know the device address, and the manufacturer of the device will give details of what the numbers mean for their specific unit, and what commands it supports.

Best Wishes
