mag apil2x lng ko ha? I actually read about the police mo manakop na about this.. about 3 weeks ago but im not sure why... maybe ilang os or something like that.. But if you wer to run a business that involves computer games and stuff.. you have to make sure na imong OS kay original.. not only the OS but the SOFTWARES(games, applications).. if not, then it has something to do with piracy ^^,.. mao man jud na kasagaran raid.. tungod sa softwares

[Eiso]

pero unsa-on man ni nato,
nga diri sa pilipinas alay man klaro if tag pila jud ang per hour rent sa computer sa internet cafe.

back s
a topic..

Hello Mga Bro/Sis,

Naa unta koy pangutana ninyo how to create or install coin operated computer. I know there's a lot out there nga namaligya pero gusto unta ko ako mohimo. kung puwede tudlo-an ko ninyo (sa nakabalo) mga steps and parts that i need to acquire?

of course computer is important:
1. Computer
2. Box or Casing (mostly wood)
3. Coin acceptor

but the next step is i don't know...

This thread is not only for me but also ka-Istoryans nga gusto maka-balo mo himo ing-ani nga business.

Electronics you need, sa akong pag.analyze lang...

Coin Slot - Kani kay kada tagak, mo-trigger sa Timer nga gi-set.
Adder Circuit - dapat naa ni siya'y Adder Circuit, look at example below

Example:
5 pesos = 10 minutes,
after 3 minutes, you'll have 7 minutes
next, 5 pesos = 7 minutes + 10 minutes

ana nga pag-add.. simple addition

Count-down Timer Circuit - kanang Ma-set nimo kung pila ka minutes ang usa ka coin nga i-sulod.

Electronic Controller - Another circuit that can turn off the monitor inig 0 sa count..

bale ang flow is:

Coin Slot -> Adder -> Timer -> Control

Mao ra na general idea akong nahunahunaan..

Naa pud lain pa-agi ani.. Software controlled, but kinahanglan og Parallel port (kasagaran sa mga Motherboard ron, wala na ani).

Another is PIC Programmed ang whole Circuit inside sa system.. mas dali, but mas mahal (siguro, not sure)

[stealthghost]

I can imagine how to create the whole circuit, but I don't have such experience yet..

naa pa kaha naa'y idea unsaun ni?

mas dali jud kung PIC Programmed ni siya..
kapoy man gud kung gamitan og Logic Gates, daghan au IC gamitunun, daghan Machine/Human Error mang-gawas...

Coin-operated Computers/ Pay Telephones
Issue: Whether a card-activated computer or pay telephone with video games is a coin-operated amusement machine
Source Document: 200409795L
Businesses that offer coin-operated amusement machines for their customers must have a special tax permit, and each machine must have a state-issued decal attached and visible. "Coin-operated amusement machines" include all types of devices that require the customer to insert a coin, bill, token, or electronic card to play a game. (See Occupations Code, Section 2153.002.)
A computer that can connect to games on the Internet is not considered an amusement machine unless customers can play games that are loaded on the computer itself. Without games loaded, there is no amusement machine tax on coin or card-operated computers or pay telephones that connect to the Internet, even if the customers use the computers or phones to play games online.
Sales tax is due on a charge to access the Internet; send, receive, or read e-mail; or make a telephone call. There is no sales tax on amusement machine receipts, so to avoid sales tax liability, the taxpayer must keep records that show how the machine is being used if the machine is an amusement machine. (See Tax Code Section 151.335.)

Brad, salamat for this information. I guess this is very informative for me and for all the istoryans...

Anyway, I think dili man gyud na ma-illegal imo business basta walay illegal nga gipanghimo or process. basta limpyo lang gyud then i think it's not illegal. dili lang para ani nga coined computer but also applies on any business we have.

Otherwise, Dili pud dayon ta mo-too kung naay tawo mo-sulti nga "ILLEGAL" ni nga business unless naay proof or evidence. Before ta mo-venture on any business we should study it first and have a plan.

Pareha ra ni nga mag-suroy ta sa colon then naay tawo mo sulti nimo -"ayaw lakaw diha brad kay illegal na". Mga brad, mga Cebuano ta dili lang dayon ta mag-pa-ilad and kung mahimo dili pud ta mang-ilad sa ka-Cebuano (or all ka-Pinoy)...

Salamat

pero basin sayop lang ta...
