EPILEPSY WARNING

A very small portion of the population has a condition which may cause them to experience epileptic seizures or have momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of flashing lights or patterns that are commonly present in our daily environment. These persons may experience seizures while watching some kinds of television pictures or playing certain video games. People who have not had any previous seizures may nonetheless have an undetected epileptic condition.

If you or anyone in your family has experienced symptoms linked to an epileptic condition (e.g. seizure or loss of awareness), immediately consult your physician before using any video games.

We recommend that parents observe their children while they play video games. If you or your child experience any of the following symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitching, involuntary movements, loss of awareness, disorientation, or convolutions, your physician.

VIDEO GAME MACHINE (VGM) OPERATION

STARTING UP

Each time the game is first turned on or power is restored, it executes code from the boot ROM. These self-diagnostic tests automatically verify and report the condition of the hardware and game EPROMs. If any individual test fails an error message for that test is displayed for three seconds or until any on-screen button is touched. If a fatal error (i.e., a touchscreen controller fault) is detected, the message remains on the screen until the fault is resolved.

Press the CALIBRATE button at any time to adjust or verify the touchscreen operation. Press the SETUP button at any time to activate the menu system (audits, adjustments, etc.). If you do not press either button, the system completes all tests, then load and run the game. Once all power-up tests are complete, the game goes into Attract mode. Game choice menus alternate

with scenes and sounds from typical games repeatedly until game play starts. Insert currency to start the game. Select a game and choose game variables. Play begins immediately.

The game progresses until time runs out or you exit from the selected game. If no more play is required, the game automatically returns to the Attract mode.

You may insert your own message to inform players of new games, upcoming events, etc. This message then appears as one of the features displayed in the Attract mode.

To shut the game off, turn the power switch to the OFF position at any time.

PLAYER CONTROLS

This game uses an on-screen touch sensor on the CRT face to control all player moves and choices. Players touch the screen for a moment in an active area to enter information. Touching inactive areas of the screen produces no response. The touch sensor responds to only one active input at a time.

MENU SYSTEM

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

Game variables and diagnostics are presented in a series of on-screen menus. The SYSTEM SETUP menu allows you to enter information, make changes, or verify equipment operation. Each sub menu screen displays one specific group of choices. The detail menu presents data or runs the required test. You must be at the detail menu level to detect errors, make changes, or activate tests. Both the operator controls and the player controls are used to move through the menus and start or stop particular routines.

Each menu is different, but the general location of objects is consistent.

The area at the top center of each screen displays the current menu title. The center of the screen is used for data (menu items, video signals, statistics, reports, etc.). The bottom of the screen is reserved for control functions (increase, decrease, next, return, etc.).

ORGANIZATION

You must activate the menu system manually and deactivate it manually to return to Attract mode. SYSTEM SETUP menu choices fall into three categories: audits, options and tests.

Audits provide you with information about earnings and the performance of each game. Option items permit you to change the game and customize or return to factory defaults. Tests are used to verify proper operation of the equipment.

Sub menu screen items offer you choices within a category. Some items have no sub menu while others may have several. You can return to the previous menu or go on to the next menu.

Detail menu screen items contain specific information. You interact with the system to get results or to make changes. There is always a way to go back to the previous menus from a detail menu.

Touch the screen to select or highlight an item on any menu screen. Only one item can be highlighted at a time. To restore the game to normal play, touch the RETURN box on each sub or detail menu and then select the EXIT box at the Main Menu to restore game play.

Press and release the SETUP button inside the cabinet to enter the menu system. A Main menu, similar to the one below, appears. After completing any task, you must return to this screen to restore game play

These routines provide you with a means of keeping the Touchmaster

in top operating condition. Perform these tests on a regular basis. Players may lose interest if they have to compensate for screen maladjustments, in addition to remembering the rules of the game. All of these tests are brief, and may be done in any order.

When you make adjustments to the Touchmaster

calibration settings, the values are stored in memory. The game is very stable and retains its accuracy if not moved from the spot where it was last calibrated. However, the internal electronics cannot compensate for changes in nearby magnetic and electrical fields that may occur when the game is relocated to another position.

Verify the calibration each time the Touchmaster

is moved, in addition to the regular maintenance

checks, for best game performance. .**Some games do not have a SET CLOCK box. The clock provides accurate time and date information

which is required to set the length of tournaments and communicate network data. Once set, the clock runs until the battery dies or some major fault occurs. Periodically examine the time and date on the system setup screen for correct values, and use the SET CLOCK utility to make changes when needed.

You can run the Calibrate routine without going through the Menu System by pressing the CALIBRATE button in the coin vault. However, this omits the Touchscreen Controller tracking test. The CALIBRATE button was included to encourage a quick check of the touchscreen functions each time the cash door is emptied.

TYPICAL VIDEO TEST MENU SCREEN

It is vital that the information on the video display for the Touchmaster

is accurate, since the CRT screen is also the control panel for this game. Use these test patterns often to ensure precise game images. Game players tend to be more critical when they are close to the monitor, and the Touchscreen Controller requires intimate screen contact. This is especially true of small screen versions, since some of the sensor areas are the same size as the contact area of the player’s fingers.

The ALIGNMENT GRID fills the screen with a series of lines and dots. The lines and dots should be all one color, with no fringes or parallel images. The lines must be straight and the dots very nearly round. Two color bars should be visible at the center of each screen edge. These bars verify scan size.

The GRADIENT TEST covers the screen with shades of colors to verify red, green, blue, and white level dynamic adjustments. Each color bar should appear sharp, clear, and distinct from the others. This test indicates a need for adjustment if some of the bars appear to be missing or blend together at the edges.

The COLOR BARS screen displays each of the standard colors and shades produced by the game’s video circuits. The vertical bars must be uniform from top to bottom. The horizontal bars should show small changes in intensity or shade from side to side. A sudden transition in any bar indicates a fault.

RED, GREEN, and BLUE SCREENS fill the screen entirely with the chosen color at normal intensity. Each screen should be absolutely uniform from top to bottom and side to side. No retrace lines or noise should be visible. These tests verify that the black level, degaussing, and blanking circuits are correct.

TYPICAL SOUND TEST MENU SCREEN

Each Game sound is stored in a discrete memory location. All sounds are available to test the audio reproduction capabilities of the sound circuits. Vary the volume as you sample these sounds to determine if loose wire connections, faulty memory, digital-to-analog conversion problems, a defective speaker, etc. could be causing distorted or missing sound effects. Select a repetitive sound track and a high volume level if you suspect errors caused by heat or time-related problems.

The sounds may be examined in any order. Touch the + or - buttons to change the volume as necessary. Touch RETURN to end these tests and go back to DIAGNOSTICS, then RETURN and EXIT to go back to Attract mode.

There are three types of sounds used in the Touchmaster events such as a touch selection or an incorrect answer to a question. A dog barking, a cowbell, and the “boing” are examples of these sounds. Medium-length phrases are used to announce the start or end of a game, bonus rounds, or a new high score. These phrases can last from one to five seconds. The final group of sounds are repetitive sounds like a jazz-drum riff or the ticking of a clock. These sounds are used to distract the player and to attract others to the game.

In addition to the on-screen OPEN or CLOSED indication, the Touchmaster

audio circuits generate a clunk noise each time a switch is closed. Use this to locate shorted or intermittent connections when you are working from the back or sides of the cabinet and cannot see the monitor screen.

Example: Suppose a different coin mechanism must be installed to accept another type of coin than was previously used. Turn off the game power and open the Cash Door. Remove the existing mechanism and replace it with the alternate unit. After the new mechanism has been mounted and connected to the game electronics, the game must be matched to the new currency values. Power up the game and verify the Touchscreen operation (minor calibration may be required after any type of product service).

is moved from one location to another, the amount of capacitance changes. This causes the controller to shift its tracking coordinates and may generate errors in some screen areas. The Calibration routine allows the controller to adjust its tracking to match the touch point.

Calibration screens require you to touch one specific location as indicated by a single dot. Touch the dot and hold this position until coarse tracking adjustments are completed (about two seconds). The Touchmaster

automatically advances to the next screen and emit a short burst of sound. Repeat this procedure for each screen with a single dot. The Calibration Test screen (see next page) tracks finger position over the entire screen, allowing the entire playing surface to be checked for accurate calibration.

Verification screens require you to touch several locations as indicated by several boxes. Touch each box and hold this position until fine tracking adjustments are completed (about one second). The Touchmaster

displays one vertical and one horizontal line on the screen. The lines should intersect over the box when you remove your finger. Repeat this procedure for each box on the screen.

CONTROLLER VERSION X.XX

TYPICAL CALIBRATION TEST SCREEN

Check the accuracy of the Touchscreen Controller can be checked without going through a new calibration procedure. This test quickly detects any non-linear or unresponsive areas of the Touchscreen.

The Controller Version number indicates the model of controller used in this unit. Because of space limitations, the Touchscreen Controller is mounted where these numbers may be difficult to view easily. If customer assistance is required, the service person may request this number during problem solving.

The first time the Touchscreen Controller is calibrated, the tracking data is stored in a section of the Touchmaster changed if the game has been serviced or relocated. The test does not change the data stored in memory. The only way to replace the existing data with new information is to go through each of the calibration steps. Use Calibrate Test on a regular basis to determine if a new calibration is necessary.

1. Touch CALIBRATE TEST to view the test screen. The lines should intersect at the screen’s center.

2. Touch any location on the screen. The lines intersect at the point of contact.

3. For each additional touch point, the lines must intersect under your fingertip. Drag your finger across

the screen, as well as lift it from the screen and place it down again.

4. Check several locations, especially along the outer perimeter of the screen. If

visible beside your finger after the lines stop moving, recalibrate the touchscreen.

5. Touch RETURN to end the test and go back to the DIAGNOSTICS screen. If you encountered errors

in the test, choose CALIBRATE and complete each step.

Apply an isopropyl alcohol or warm water to a clean cloth or sponge and use it to wipe the surface. Do not apply cleaner directly on the unit. Liquids could drip into circuits and cause erratic VGM operation.

2. Warn players to use only one finger at a time. Multiple, simultaneous touches confuse the controller.

Repeat the Calibrate and Calibrate Test sequence each time the VGM is relocated.

1. Check the assembly (RAM, ROM, battery, touchscreen, etc.) identified in the error message.

2. If errors seem to occur at random, try to determine what conditions occur with the appearance of the message (i.e., time of day, when other equipment is turned off or on, when room temperature is elevated, when certain players are at the VGM, periods of low or high humidity, etc.).

3. Call your authorized distributor for help with unresolved screen messages.
