Site Preparation
In determining the location for your Megatouch Gametime™ video game, con­sideration must be given to a suitable, grounded electrical outlet. Since the game is a computerized device, it should be con­nected to a separate grounded circuit. If a separate circuit is not available, care should be taken to provide a clean and constant voltage. As a basic guideline, never con­nect the unit to a circuit that also supplies power to freezers, coolers or other high power consuming and electrical noise-gen­erating equipment. Place the game in a loca­tion where nothing will interfere with proper ventilation. The game should not be exposed to any dripping or splashing liquids. Objects filled with liquid should not be placed on the unit.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this ap­paratus to rain or moisture. The power cord on the rear of the unit is the dis­connect device and must remain readily accessible after installation.
Setting up your Game
1. After removing the game from the car­ton, plug the game into a standard AC outlet.
NOTE: All packaging materials should be retained in the event the game needs to be sent in for service.
2. Turn the power switch at the back of the game to ON and wait for comple­tion of the boot-up sequence. The game will display the Player Menu Screen.
3. The machine has been preset at the factory and therefore should not need to be adjusted; however, it is recom­mended that the screen be calibrated (see Touchscreen Calibration).
4. There are many custom settings avail­able for the game. To customize the settings, follow the software instruc­tions in this manual.

SETUP
Game Description
The Megatouch Gametime unit has an Ethernet coupler installed in the rear of the game (see Figure 1). The coupler can be used for broadband Internet connection or linking two or more games together for head­to-head play. The game also has a wireless adapter which can be used to automatically wirelessly link to another game or wirelessly connect to a broadband Internet connection (this requires the purchase of an 802.11 wireless router). An optional keyboard up­grade is also available for purchase through your local authorized dealer (part number: KAV-100-014-01). The keyboard allows you to easily type text in a Web browser. There is also a centronics connector on the back of the game which is used for future soft­ware upgrades.
Control Board Compartment
The control board compartment is located at the rear of the game (see Figures 1 and 2). Loosen the two thumbscrews to open the compartment. The buttons on the control board are explained below.
SETUP
Press SETUP to access the software op­tions. These options are explained in the software section of this manual. If SETUP is pressed during boot-up, the on-screen DIP switch program will launch. Consult the DIP SWITCH SETTINGS section of this manual for more information.
CALIBRATE
Pressing the CALIBRATE button will take you through the steps to calibrate the touchscreen. This is sometimes necessary if the touchscreen is not responding prop­erly to touch. See Touchscreen Calibra-
tion for detailed instructions.
MONITOR CONTROLS
The five buttons labeled Auto, Exit, Left, Right, and Menu adjust the monitor settings. See Monitor Adjustment Procedure for detailed instructions of each button.
General Care and Maintenance
Touchscreen Calibration
Press the CALIBRATE button, located in the control board compartment (see Figure 2). Touch the center of the first cross that appears on the screen. Once you release your finger, a sec­ond cross will appear.
NOTE: You must hold your finger on the circle for approximately 2 seconds
for the calibration to be recognized.
Touch the center of the second cross
that appears on the screen.
Once the second cross is touched and
released, another cross will appear on the screen. To test the calibration of the screen, touch the cross with your finger and slowly drag your finger around the screen. The cross should follow your movement.
Touch the EXIT button, then perform
the operation a second time for high resolution.

Monitor Adjustment Procedure
The vertical/horizontal controls and bright­ness/contrast controls are located on the control board (see Figure 2).
Pressing the button labeled Menu on the control board will show an on-screen dis­play of the monitor settings. Use the Left and Right buttons to move through the menu. Touch Menu to select the option you want to change. Use the Left and Right buttons to change the option. Then press Menu again to deselect the option. Auto will automati­cally adjust the size and brightness. Touch the Exit button to exit. Adjust the monitor controls until the screens look as suggested in the following steps:
1. Set the game to the Checkerz game screen.
2. Adjust the vertical and horizontal size and vertical and horizontal position to make sure that the game screen fills the monitor screen and that the game screen is centered.
3. Adjust the brightness and contrast con­trols until the top sets of checkers are a rich red and the bottom set are a dark gray. The feet on the “Checkerz” character should be white. (Adjusting the brightness and contrast can also correct a lack of sharpness.)
Cleaning the Cabinet
The cabinet should be cleaned with a dry cloth and mild detergent. Always apply the cleaner to the cloth and not directly on the game. Liquids could enter the cabinet and damage electron­ics inside.
Cleaning the Touchscreen Monitor
The touchscreen glass should be cleaned with a damp cloth and isopro­pyl alcohol or a non-ammonia cleanser.
Do not use any abrasive or vinegar-
based cleansers, as they will damage the touchscreen glass. Always apply
the cleaner to the cloth and not directly to the glass. Liquids could enter the cabinet and damage electronics inside.
NOTE: DO NOT USE ANY ABRASIVE SOLVENTS, ACID OR VINEGAR-BASED CLEANSERS ON THE TOUCHSCREEN OR SIDE DECALS. SUCH CLEANSERS COULD HARM THE TOUCHSCREEN AND ERASE THE DECALS. BE CARE­FUL NOT TO USE COMMERCIAL CLEANERS CONTAINING ANY OF
THESE SUBSTANCES.
Cleaning the Fans and Vents
The fans and vents should be cleaned of any dust and grime on a regular basis to ensure proper ventilation of the game.
To ensure proper operation of the game, it is important that all fans are operating correctly and that the airflow is unobstructed. Make sure nothing is placed next to the fan vents that would inhibit the flow of air. Also, if any fans are not operating, it is important that the game be sent in for service.
Watchdog Timer
This game has been equipped with a fea­ture that allows it to automatically reboot if it encounters a problem. When the watchdog timer is enabled, it will reboot the machine within 2 minutes after a failure, allowing the game to automatically reset itself if a prob­lem arises without needing a technician present.

Secured connection: Choosing a “locked” device will prompt a key (pass­word) request. If the selection is your own network, use your network pass­word to gain access. If not, this indi­cates an outside wireless network that has been encrypted and is not acces­sible. Unsecured connection: You will be prompted to enter interface information. Accept the default values, or consult a network advisor to manually configure these settings.
Ad-Hoc Network: This is only for link­ing games, not for connecting to the server for MegaNet.

Create a name for your network and enter your net­work and enter that same SSID name for all games that you want to link. You will also be required to manually con­figure these settings, consult a network advisor.
Custom Configuration: Touching this button will prompt the user to enter the SSID (network name) for manual setup of the wireless connection.
NOTE: Wireless Internet connection does not require Manual Configura­tion. Only users who have changed the default SSID during router installation should change the SSID. Consult the instructions supplied with your wire-
less router for more information. NOTE: If you have chosen Custom Con-
figuration, you will be prompted to enter interface information. We suggest you ac­cept the default values. If you want to manu­ally configure these settings, consult a net­work advisor.
