Coin acceptor credit display

Hi,

Just after some help. I have one of the below coin acceptors and i have it all wired up and working fine. I was wondering if anyone would know of a way if I could have it display on a screen the credits as the coins go in. I believe it signals the coins by pulse so whether it can be intergrated with that.

Thanks

Daniel

SSD1306 displays are easy to display text on.

This one in particular is compatible with lot’s of controllers including Raspberry PI and Arduino. It’s optimized for the Pico.

Is this the kind of thing your after??

Hey @Daniel209871,

The product page links to this wiki, which explains how to interface the coin acceptor with an Arduino.

Once that’s set up, displaying credits on a screen should be straightforward. The screen Pixmusix linked would work well for that purpose.
