Hey guys.
I am currently rebuilding an vending machine in order to control it with an Arduino.
The vending machine i am using is the FAS Spirali, similar to the one below.
It is a spiral style vending machine controlled by a series of dc motor connected to spirals for dispensing. The motor are similar to these: http://www.amazon.com/Molon-CJM-2407-122X-Gear-Motor-Volt/dp/B00WO6M2EA. However they also include what i assume is a sensor for controlling the rotation. I have attached a picture of the motor including a small circuit board and the aforementioned sensor. The only wires running to the DC motor are power and ground.
My question is can any of you tell me how to control these, and what role does the small rotation sensor play?
N.B I have included the full schematic.
