The goal of this application is to run on a windows machine (win7 up to latest version) which operates a generic MDB coin acceptor to accept a fixed amount. When the price is paid, something happens (depending on the product).
The MDB interface to talk with the coin acceptor will be a USB device which behaves and shows up like a standard COM port.
