| + | ===== The proper way to program coin validators ===== | ||
| + | The original software used to program these coin validators ist called VAL-ESC, a itty-bitty-shitty DOS-application that also just issues the previous commands to calibrate a device, download the current coinset, or upload a new one. | ||
| + | |||
| + | There is a repository of some coin sets, that we should probably put online at some point in the future. | ||
