Can someone tell me what the difference is between pulse and serial? I see there is an option to choose one on my National combo machine. What does it mean?

Pulse is like turning on and off a switch, i.e. 1 pulse one dollar. Serial is digital like a computer it talks in bits and bites.Can someone tell me what the difference is between pulse and serial? I see there is an option to choose one on my National combo machine. What does it mean?

Depends on the validator and harness, Which validator are you using? It will have to be a "Mars" hookup there will be a 9 pin connector and a flat black connector to be serial and connected to a mars validator. If it is a Maka hookup it will be pulse. There are exceptions so tell me what vali you have and what the harness looks like.Thank, but how do you know which it should be on?
