      Have read through many posts about coin acceptors and when it comes to the question I have the post ends with no answer.

      My problem is that when I connect my coin acceptor to my zero delay usb encoder it sends a positive charge constantly which either keeps giving credits or glitches out the whole thing causing Emulation station to crash and burning out points on the zero delay

      I know the way it is supposed to be wired and have tried many variations, preety much all giving the same result.

      I have this Coin Mech https://www.vadership.com/product/electronic-coin-mechanism-metal-face/ and am trying to connect it to my Zero Delay USB encoder https://www.ebay.com.au/i/283652500549?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-139619-5960-0&mkcid=2&itemid=283652500549&targetid=834766588961&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=9070917&poi=&campaignid=7408627101&mkgroupid=86410135648&rlsatarget=pla-834766588961&abcId=1139226&merchantid=115580243&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIj6vNlIv75gIVgnZgCh1h7w_zEAQYBCABEgI6g_D_BwE

      Am coming to the conclusion that this is a bad combo and can not be a straight wiring job..?
      Does someone that has encountered this have a fix?
