Does a Coin Pusher Have an Anti-Cheat Device? What Operators Should Know

Yes, coin pushers have anti-cheat devices designed specifically for their unique attack surfaces. Unlike fish tables where the primary threat is wireless signal injection, coin pushers face a broader range of cheating methods — tilt cheating, magnet attacks, string cheating, pulse injection, and ticket dispenser manipulation. A coin pusher anti-cheat system must address all of these surfaces with a single installation.

The Coin Pusher Anti-Cheat System

The Gen2 anti-cheat system for coin pushers includes a base monitoring module plus optional add-ons: the anti-tilt sensor, the magnetic shield, and the ticket dispenser monitor. The base module monitors the coin mech pulse line for fake coin signals and the communication bus for wire-tap attacks. The anti-tilt sensor triggers at 1.5-2 degrees of tilt, catching cheaters who tilt the machine to dislodge coins. The magnetic shield blocks external magnets from pulling coins through the playfield window. The ticket dispenser monitor prevents unauthorized ticket payouts.

What Operators Should Know Before Buying

First, not all coin pusher anti-cheat devices include all these features. Some only monitor the coin mech line, leaving tilt and magnet vulnerabilities unaddressed. Make sure the device you buy covers the specific threats your machines face. Second, the device must be compatible with your coin pusher model. Our devices work with ELAUT, Benchmark, and generic coin pusher models. Third, consider the total cost — a base system with all three add-ons costs $200-300 per machine and pays for itself in under 30 days.

Installation and Maintenance

The coin pusher anti-cheat system installs in under 30 minutes per machine. The base module connects to the power supply. The anti-tilt sensor mounts on the machine frame. The magnetic shield fits between the playfield and the glass. No machine modification is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need all three add-ons, or can I start with just the base module?
A: Start with the base module to cover coin mech attacks. Add the anti-tilt sensor if you observe tilt cheating. Add the magnetic shield if you suspect magnet attacks. Each add-on is sold separately.

Q: Can I install the system on a coin pusher that is currently operating?
A: Yes. The system installs without taking the machine offline for more than a few minutes.

Q: Does the magnetic shield affect the visibility of the playfield?
A: No. The shield is transparent and does not affect the visual appearance of the machine.

Q: How do I know if the anti-tilt sensor is set to the right sensitivity?
A: The sensor is adjustable. Start at 2 degrees. If you get false triggers from normal machine movement, increase the threshold.
