    But, I can't read Japanese, and google translator failed miserably.
    Also I don't see where you go to buy it, or really anything considering I don't know what it says.
    It looks perfect though from pictures!
    Specifically the II and III systems
    I'm mostly pictures on that sort of thing myself

    I'm pretty sure it's industry only for purchase, and not cheap.

The credit for the counted balls will then be added back to the ball loan display on the machine (or your smartcard if you have the smartcard reader option as well).

    While the new version 2 dongles have been designed so that they should be capable of connecting straight to the counter module (but I can't be 100% sure of this, as I haven't designed the counter module yet!), I'll probably add an extra chip to the sensor circuit board in the counter module so that it can also be used with the older dongles.

    I've got no timescales on this project though, as I've got quite a few projects that need to be finished first. Especially seeing as the counter module is going to need a fair bit of mechanical design work, and some significant investment in new tools / equipment (if I'm going to have any chance of making it work!), which will make it a project for when time and funds allow.
    This is exactly what I was hoping for! Thank you, I'll have patience. Considering it'll be awhile before I'd could use it anyway.

    Yeah I figured that lol
    But there's a way you can use a ball lifter to take the excess back to the top,
    it was in another thread in vendors/dealers where someone was talking about a ball lifter they bought.
