I may be way off the mark with this as you mentioned that the notey was in another machine before, but i know that as a general rule note acceptors need calibrating, which means you need a LOT and i mean LOT of notes in order to calibrate it with first.

If it worked in another Maygay machine, then the note acceptor is almost certainly ok.
I'm assuming that both machines were connected to the note acceptor using the same PCB beneath the black box (the hopper driver board) with the same loom ?
If so, it's highly likely that everything is actually ok, and that you've just forgotten to set the Dill settings accordingly. I would suggest you copy the settings from your 1st machine to your new machine as a starting point, although someone else will probably tell you exactly what the settings should be.

What he said

Think it'll be an option switch needs to be set on the machine for it to see it,
