Ok finally had time to get a video of the cabinet working. The top buttons need wiring up but it's getting there now .

Yeah was begining to lose the will

I have just done another test. So in mode 1 the hopper works apart from when you test hopper and it empties the hopper completely. What I did was check on notepad when it was emptying the hopper and it was outputting [[[[[. This ment it was registering the coin output. I re did the the inputs and re did the wiring and now on an mpu5 machine it is now dispensing the correct coins!!!! Finally everything seems to be working at last!! Thanks for all your help on this! Hopefully it will work on a scorpion 5 layout also

Ok I will check this later and give an update. I have the Azkoyen Hopper U but its still the coin pin I will check. The hopper has 3 modes. Mode 1 will let me hold the test button and it will constantly dispence coins but when you test hopper it won't stop. Mode 2 when you click test the hopper will start spinning but won't stop even when you stop clicking the test button (opposite to Mode 2) Mode 3 I think works by waiting for a pulse. Not when you click the test button it will despence 1 coin and stop. Quickly tap test 3 times and it will dispence 3 coins. When I click test hopper in this mode I get the 10 second delay and it won't payout. This mode seems to be the one that sees the coin dispensed. It just ends up looking like its waiting for the pulses when an actual payout is made. Not sure what Mode it's supposed to be in yet but I will try to test the coin pin later and see that its working

Ok I have tried it with King kebab which is an mpu5 and it does the same. Its like its not registering the coin coming out. I have cleaned the sensor and still does the same

Currently using a scorpion 5 layout. I'll try another layout

Ok progress!! I have now managed to get the hopper working with payouts. The only issue is when I win £2 and collect, it will keep emptying the hopper. Is there a setting I need to change?

Hey all. Ok a huge thank you to Andy at Ultimarc!! My I-PAC was buggered and he sent me a new one out so I am now back to where I was. Ok so everything is now working as it should apart from the hopper. If I set up the hopper and test while it highlighted it chucks out a pound instantly. If I click test hopper it waits for about 10 secs and then chucks out a pound. If after 5 seconds after I click test gopher I close the software the pound will then instantly come out. Its like something in the background it thinking. I still can't get a fruit to pay out although I think it's due to this issue. I am so close to it all working as it should!!

So I have been speaking to Andy at ultimarc and we have been trying to sort the I-PAC and it completely died. I have now sent it off to them to be repaired or replaced. Got to say Andy is really helpful!

Problem is if the ipac isn't connected then winipac shows no board. Am beginning to think it's buggered so may have to buy another one

Yes still doing it with all the wires disconnected. It was fine with the new ground. It was when I was trying to sort the hopper test delay I was getting. I think something must have happened then

If the board it stuck thinking there is a keyboard press, then if I have all wires out and put in a ground wire and touch each input, shouldn't that get the ipac to reset as an on and off?

Yes tried on another computer and swapped ports on there but unfortunately no differenc. Its like the board needs flashing to reset it

@Amusementsdo you mean the ipac or the pacdrive? Ok here is what I have tried. I have taken all of the wires out and plugged the ipac into another pc. Same problem. Just spams 5555555555 and opens explorer. I have tried reseting it with the winpac to default but it locks up when uploading the settings to the ipac. I have started MFME and then plugged in the ipac which didn't change anything

Someone find me a wall to hit my head on! So thought I was nearly there but now my pac drive is playing up now! Its glitching so it keeps doing a keyboard press as if your holding the button down. I can't log into it as it starts to lock the pc up!
