Connect Your Coin Exchange or Vending Machine to a Telemetry System: A Guide to Complete Real-Time Control

Telemetry technology is revolutionizing the way we manage and monitor coin-operated machines and vending machines. Thanks to this system, you can gain full control of your equipment, improve its management, and save time and resources. How is this done? Let's break it down.

Full Control with Telemetry Technology

By connecting your machine to the telemetry system, you can monitor all its movements and functions in real time, either from your mobile phone or your computer. Some of the top features provided by the system include:

  1. Daily Fund and Analysis

    • It records the daily cash flow for the last 40 days and provides a two-axis graph display.
    • Then the cash is broken down into small change and paper money, so that it is known how much each total is.
    • Report table with the ability to export to csv files.

  2. Geographic Tracking with GPS

    • Locate the machine in real time on the map.
    • Track its route in case of theft, ensuring its immediate recovery.
    • Machine position coordinates

  3. Control of Functions and Peripherals

    • Check the firmware versions of all the machine's peripherals.
    • Receive notifications about the status of the bill acceptor (Billy One) and coin acceptor, so you know if they are operating normally.

  4. Operating Schedule

    • Be informed about when the machine door opens or closes, when it comes into operation during the day, and if customers try to move or tamper with it.

  5. Remote Control and Sending Commands.

    • Enable or disable the acceptance of specific coins or banknotes, such as €50 banknotes.
    • Send a remote payment order from the hoppers.

  6. Coin Inventory Tracking

    • Check how many coins are in the machine at any time so you can schedule its replenishment.

Custom Function for Coins and Tokens

The machine can operate with both tokens and coins (€0.50, €1, €2). This flexibility makes it ideal for various business models, from entertainment centers to cafes and events.

Benefits for Your Business

Adopting a telemetry system is not just a technological upgrade, but an investment that saves time, enhances safety, and increases the productivity of your business. With access to detailed data, you can make more informed decisions and ensure the best possible experience for your customers.
