There are five sensors that detect different physical parameters, which are tested against predefined values and their ranges. The validator then passes the coin number to the payphone's main board, but the monetary value of each coin is defined in one of the MM tables.

To edit the advertising messages or speed dial buttons you need a hex editor and some experience. It also has several bugs, like some coins not being detected properly (a nickel recognized randomly as 5 or 6 cents, a dollar coin - 9 cents) etc. text/html 2025-08-13T21:54:30+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://payphones.telesfor.org/doku.php?id=smart:millennium:docu&rev=1755122070&do=diff Manuals [Installation, operation and maintenance guide, MTR 1.9, 01.1997] [131MB] [List of firmware, by terminal type. 02.2000] [Using the craft interface] [Pocket troubleshooting guide] [Installing terminal hardware] [Replacing parts] Links github.com/hharte/mm_manager - Millennium Manager alternative, reverse-engineered by Howard Harte. github.com/muccc/millennium - Large repository of Millennium firmware and documents <https://wiki.muc.ccc.de/millennium:start> - technical resource… text/html 2024-08-13T19:00:00+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://payphones.telesfor.org/doku.php?id=smart:millennium:program&rev=1723575600&do=diff Millennium programming Programming of a Millennium phone is a bit more tricky than other payphones. Technically, it needs the Millennium Manager to be accessible by a modem at any time. It validates credit card calls each time and updates the rates and uploads CDRs (call data records) regularly. There is a way to program it the way it (almost) wouldn't need the Manager anymore, unless there is an unexpected alarm or the call log gets full.
