Canadian to US currency

keystone9:
I have a IGT I game that I need to convert from Canadian currency to US currency. The machine has a Mars BV. Can anyone tell me what has to be done for the conversion? I am guessing I will need a new or different bill head but I am wondering if I have to change anything in the game program. The Mars, MEI, BV that's in the game now works great but I need to convert.  Thanks.

rickhunter:
I believe the MARS validators are universal, you probably just need to flash the head and you should be good to go.  You probably have a Cashflow 6602?

keystone9:
Thanks for the reply. No 6602. the model # is scn8342U. Thanks. Bill.

rickhunter:
8342 is listed as an international model.  You are probably better off just buying a new 6602 head and be done with it.  They can be found on e-bay for around $35 to $40 since you already have the transport and cash can.  I don't know if the 8342 has the magnetic sensors needed for US currency.

Harp:
66xx series are USA
8xxx series are International

As Rick points out it would be cheaper for you to pick up a 6602 Head off of EBay or one of the many vendors here are NLG
