ES-5 System Running an MBC3 Changer

[jholmes]

Hello all,

     Its been 14 yrs since I've touched NSM (living in Texas <--herin described as Rowe Country) . I have an ES-5 test bench that can run MBC-3 and ES-5 CD100 changers. I hooked up the MBC-3 from the CD-100 (i have an adaptor) and first thing had Error 73 (lift issue) and error 60(Cd Player not found). Then it hit me...The Eprom on ES-5 Control Board is currently for ES-5 (running the CD100 changer). Should I have changed that Eprom to 5.1 for the MBC-3? My old teacher (Keith White) had instructed me back in the late 90s and I have since lost any notes. He was the best. Any info will be appreciated and thanks for your time.

Hi,
Well above my "pay grade", on NSM's--- Is Keith still around-?- you are correct-- a REALLY great guy ! Last I heard,and saw,some years ago, he purchased and was operating a route in Stockton CA. Should anyone be in contact with him, please say "Hi" from me ! Ron Rich

Will do Ron. Not sure where, but i had his number (Gold Rush Vending). Speaking of great Juke gods of old, I found Mike Jablanski (Rockola) working for Touch Tunes> Canada rep haha. Loved that guy, learned alot of secrets from him too. Here in Texas we mostly have ROWE, and TTunes of course :/. 


Note: I may be able to help out here with some NSM CD Box parts. If someone is in need. I had obtained bunch back in 2002 when I left Mountin Coin Denver. They were fading out old NSM.
