For typical markets, the appropriate guidelines for operation will befound on the following page.To Enter The “Coin-In” Screen, Touch “Coin-In” on the Credits MenuGame cost can be controlled two ways: by changing the number of credits required to playa game or by changing the cost of a credit. The Coin-In Menu allows you to adjust the costof a credit, as well as provide a way to give players “bonus” credits for depositing a higheramount of money.When programming the Coin-In Menu, Channel 1 is set for the lowest value coin, Channel 2for the next highest value, etc. If all six coin inputs are not used, the unused inputs must beset to “N/A”. Adjust the coin/credit/meter pulse settings by touching the up and downarrows on the field you want to change.COIN INPUT COIN VALUE COINS = CREDITS & METER PULSES1A 10p 3 1 32B 20p 3 2 63C 50p 1 2 player premium 25p/credit 54D 1£ 1 5 player premium 20p/credit 10In the above example (UK currency), each game costs one (1) credit and the cost for asingle credit is 30p. This method is preferred if you want game cost to always be reflectedas “1 credit.”COIN INPUT COIN VALUE COINS = CREDITS & METER PULSES1A 10p 1 1 12B 20p 1 2 23C 50p 1 6 1 bonus credit 54D 1£ 1 15 5 bonus credits 10In the above example (UK currency), the cost of a credit is set to 10p and each game costs3 credits (for a total of 30p). This method allows game cost to be increased by the smallestunit of currency used (e.g. increasing the cost of Solitaire to four (4) credits would increasethe game cost by 10p).In both examples, note that meter pulses are independent of credits and only track the unitof currency (10p in the examples). Players are given an incentive to deposit more moneyby giving them “bonus” credits for depositing 50p or £1. Coins may be deposited in any<strong>com</strong>bination of values and the game will automatically register the highest number of creditsfor the total amount of coins deposited. Once a game is played, any remaining fractionalcredits are erased.Generally, most countries have a factory default setting. This setting can be adjusted (asdescribed above), but will return if the game memory is cleared. Some programs, dependingon the key used, have a currency default display located to the left of the coin inputs. Itshows the currency value for each of the coin inputs.
