4.1 IC Chip Replacement To remove or install integrated circuit (IC) chips on the processor board, see Figures 4-1 and 4-2, and proceed as follows. Note: Check with state and local laws, and record the accounting data before removing game program chips. Chip removal clears all current accounting data.

For jumper locations on the processor board, see the processor (video controller) board schematic in the appropriate electronic diagrams and parts manual.

IC Chip Replacement

Removal The ICs intended for field replacement are the two game PROMs (U19 and U46) and the base PROM (U21) shown in Figures 4-1 and 4-2. Caution: Chip removal and replacement instructions should be followed carefully to avoid damaging both the individual program chips and the circuit board itself. These devices are staticsensitive and should be handled by qualified personnel only .

1. Open the machine door and turn the power off. Important: Ground yourself to neutralize static that can damage both the ICs and the processor board.

2. Remove the processor tray. 3. Place the processor tray on a stable, flat surface. Caution: Prying against the circuit board with a pointed object may damage the traces under the IC socket.

4. Locate the chip(s) to be replaced and, after grounding yourself, carefully remove with a chip extractor.

January 15, 2003

Installation 1. Handling the computer chip only by the ends, visually align it by matching the orientation notch, located at one end of the chip, with the notched outline on the processor board. Caution: If the computer chip is placed into its socket in the wrong direction or with one or more pins ("legs") out of position, the chip may be damaged when the machine power is turned on.

2. The two sets of "legs" on each computer chip are generally spread a little wider apart than the openings in the receptacle. If the legs appear too wide for the receptacle, adjust the alignment by using a chip installation tool of the correct size. If an installation tool is not available, it may be possible to spring the legs into alignment by placing the chip on its side on a flat, nonconductive surface and gently tilting the chip just enough to bend all of the legs inward a little on each side. 3. When the chip is properly aligned, use gentle hand pressure to push it into the socket. Check both sides of the chip to be sure that all legs are engaged correctly before pushing all the way down into its seat. 4. Install the processor tray and lock into place. 5. Turn the machine power on. Refer to the Operator and Attendant Menu section of this manual for information about selecting programmable game options. Refer to the Troubleshooting: Game Machines manual to resolve any error messages that may appear on the video monitor. 6. Close and lock the machine door.

4.1.2

SS PROM Installation Use the previous removal and installation instructions but insert this chip with the un-notched end closest to the unmarked end of socket U17. This chip has 28 pins but the socket has 32. See Figure 4-3 for details.

4.2 Sound SIMM Board Replacement The sound SIMM board contains the game sounds used in machines with stereo sound (refer to Figure 4-1). Each board is individually programmed for a specific game theme. Note: This board must be replaced when changing game themes.

Removal 1. Press the small, metal tabs on both sides of the mount that holds the board, and the board releases. 2. Gently pull the board away from the mount.

Installation 1. Place the board into the mount at an angle and let it rest on the small, metal tabs. 2. Gently press down on the board until it snaps into place. The metal tabs will hold the board in place on the mount.

4.3 Key Chip Procedure Key chips are used to perform certain machine activities that are sensitive or require higher authority than the normal technician with access to the Operator menu. The key chip is required to change machine parameters such as the denomination, pay table or selected games. Follow this procedure to use the key chip. Note: The key chip version must be compatible with the base EPROM on the processor board being changed.

1. Verify that there are no tilts, credits available, or games in progress on the machine. 2. Use the procedure in Section 4.1 to remove the Base EPROM from the processor board and replace it with the key chip. 3. Reinstall the processor board in the machine. 4. Turn the machine power on. When the key chip has been recognized, the two amber LEDs farthest from the operator switch light and stay lit. • If the left LED lights, but not the right, then an error occurred. Repeat the procedure to verify that the key chip is correctly installed. • If the right LED lights, but not the left, the key chip failed because the processor board identification does not match. • If neither LED lights, the key chip is bad. 5. Turn the machine power off and replace the key chip with the base EPROM. 6. Reinstall the processor board in the machine. 7. Turn the machine power on and the key chip menu appears on the LCD. 8. Perform the setup changes necessary and exit the key chip menu. Refer to the procedures in the Key Chip Menu section for detailed information. Note: The key chip menu times out after approximately two minutes of inactivity.

4.4 Clear Chip Procedure The clear chips are required to clear RAM, EEPROM or both. Use Table 4-1 to determine which clear chips are necessary to perform the clear operation desired. Note: Clearing RAM will erase all accounting and event information from the machine. Clearing EEPROM will reset all machine and game setup parameters to defaults.

Clear chips are not available in all gaming or lottery jurisdictions. Contact IGT or the appropriate agency to determine whether these chips are available in a particular jurisdiction.

1. Verify that there are no tilts, credits available, or games in progress on the machine. 2. Use the procedure in Section 4.1 to remove the base EPROM from the processor board and replace them with the set of clear chips (refer to Table 4-1). 3. Reinstall the processor board in the machine. 4. Turn the machine power on and watch the two rightmost, amber colored LEDs on the processor tray next to the test switch. The following table lists the memory conditions that are indicated on the LEDs.

4.6 Game Program Change Use the following procedure to replace game programs in Vision Series machines equipped with an LCD. Note: Game program changes are highly regulated in certain gaming jurisdictions. Some jurisdictions require the presence of a gaming agent during this procedure. Verify state and local legal requirements before changing programs.

Newer flash memory cards may require more memory in the LCD. Ensure that the LCD has sufficient memory before changing programs.

1. Turn the machine power off. 2. Remnove the processor board from the machine, and remove the game, stepper base and version PROMs from the processor board (refer to Section 4.1.1). 3. Remove the Bonus Game Module (BGM) from the LCD (refer to Section 4.5). 4. Install the new game, stepper base and version PROMs on the processor board and return the board to the machine (refer to Section 4.1.1). 5. Install the new sound SIMM board if the machine has stereo sound (refer to Section 4.2). 6. Install the new BGM in the top slot of the LCD and install the RFA card in the slot on the left side of the LCD (Refer to Section 4.5). 7. Turn the machine power on. The LCD indicates the status of the game replacement. 8. When the LCD displays the “Enter new time” prompt, turn the machine power off. 9. Remove the RFA card and turn the machine power on. When the VFD indicates that the machine is experiencing a RAM error, turn the Attendant key. 10. When prompted by the message on the VFD, press the operator switch on the processor board, hold for two to three seconds, then release. The game program change is complete when the LCD and VFD display game play messages.

Section 5 Game Software Testing Use the following procedure when the machine is in the idle mode to verify that the game program software is operating correctly. 1. Turn the machine power off. Open the machine door, unlock and remove the processor board. Verify that the program numbers on the game ICs are compatible with the machine hardware options and that they are installed correctly. 2. Replace the processor board. Power up the machine and use the Diagnostic option on the Operator or Attendant menu to check inputs, outputs, and set options. Note: If the software does not seem to drive a particular hardware component, contact an IGT agent to verify software capabilities.

3. Play enough games to verify correct operation of the games and player panel switches. 4. Use the Accounting Menu to verify that software data is being metered and the desired options are selected. 5. Close and lock all doors.
