Token meter

Question from Cletus: I am needing to replace a analog token meter and I was wondering is there a quicker way or a more simple way of advancing the new meter to match the current one. I have a DC Power Supply test equipment and right now I have it set so I can tap the leads and click it forward the problem I have is I am needing to 452,498 and the meter is currently at 301,876.

Response from Jonathan: Cletus,

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head would be to program a microprocessor all-in-one board (like the Arduino) to run through a loop that connects the two wires together a set number of times with a small timeout in between clicks. Other than that, your probably stuck advancing the meter manually. If I can come up with a better solution I’ll let you know.

Thank you for your question and good luck with your future repairs.
