    MX3110 special sims

    Does anyone know how to get into the special sims on this model of machine? Yes I am certified and yes I have a manual.
    I know I should be ashamed of myself. Strangely though, I am not.

    I'd have to assume it would be the same as previous models.

      No there is no CA key on the screen where you enter the code. On normal machines the code is # * CA #.

        I didn't look at the op panel, but you're correct. No CA key, how bizarre... Perhaps that code might best be edited out to prevent it getting into the wrong hands.

          Press the home key twice and the touch screen will show you the version of firmware that is installed on the machine.

          You then touch the touch screen where the version number is showing. You then enter the # * C * using the keys on the touch panel.

            Spanky, that's how to get into regular TC, not the special sims.

              I may have an answer for you later today, provided nobody beats me to it. Will respond with the command as soon as I have it, if I get it.

                Could it be the '//' which I couldn't find a definition? I tried several combinations with that without success; hope you have better luck.

                    One of the guys here was talking to tech support this morning and asked them, they said the special sims aren't there anymore. I don't believe that but that's what he said. Thanks for the responses. Zootech, I couldn't find anything that said what the // is for either. Apparently that's a secret too. I really don't like these machines.

                      I can assure you from personal experience that it does exist. Also, you do not need any sort of special firmware. Those who work for Sharp have been told that if it leaks out, they will be terminated. If someone wants to discuss this further, please PM me.

                        It seems that Special Sims on all the new machines is a big secret.

                          They're secret for a very good reason... Last thing anyone needs is for some scumbag salesman to get a hold of the codes and start resetting meters to 0 and pawning off used machines as new. Then we're all sunk, which is why I imagine they've been so secretive about them now.

                            hi
                            all
                            unfortunatly i am in the same boat like the rest of you guys,
                            on all the previous models was no problem to get the secret sims,
                            but on this range i tried to figure it out for a week,still no succes.

                              I was @ sharp last week and they told me the "special sims" are no more.
