DESCRIPTION OF THE GAMING MACHINE SYSTEM

As we know, the main part of the gaming device (Automated American Roulette) is a computer, which enables the performance of all major processes, such as all kinds of control over the game of roulette, security control, accounting of payments, etc. The automatic roulette is a highly complex gaming device, therefore all the processes that are performed require an adequate security level. In other words that means that the operator or anyone else do not have access to the windows environment. In our case this environment is windows embedded. In addition to the protection itself, regarding the access to the working environment, some files that are very important for the roulette operation will be protected by the WIBU key, which means that it will be impossible to modify the files related to the WIBU key. Access to the individual parts is shown in the figure below.

Figure 1: Presentation of user access to the individual environments As seen in the figure above, the user has access only to the BiOS software tool and to the roulette game, which will be carried out automatically when the gaming device is turned on. The user will not have access to all other programs and to the windows environment. How can you leave the roulette game and entry to BiOS setup window? If you want to do this you must first stop the roulette and after that you must restart it again. Now you have 15s for decide what do you want. So if you want to enter to BiOS window you just press »RELOAD« button.

GAME SETUP Game setup is a software tool with which values of individual settings can be defined or chosen. The tool has been designed so that each user has access to only defined levels, meaning that the quantity of settings is limited to each individual type of user (see figure below).

Display of access options by individual type of user As seen in the figure above, users not belonging in the above groups do not have access to the settings. The highest level in the structure is admin. Only this user has access to and may modify all settings. Game Setup or, respectively, the software tool, with whose aid the operator adjusts the gaming device for a wider selection of players, is very user-friendly. It is designed so that individual categories are broken down into categories whose names alone direct users to the desired settings. An example is shown below.


9


Game setup window As seen in the figure above, individual settings are broken down into four categories, namely: -

game settings (settings influencing the game) hardware settings (configuration hardware sections) menu access (configuration menus of the gaming device) other settings (additional settings)

For access to individual settings, the operator has a choice of two different methods: -

the program automatically directs the user to the desired settings by clicking on a selection, or with the aid of a tree structure.

Both methods of access are shown below.

Description of individual settings GAME SETTINGS additional ball read action after ball two soon detected By clicking on the chosen setting, you can define how the gaming device will react if the ball drops on a number too quickly. The setting is defined by selecting the desired option from the drop-down menu.

Three different options are available:


11


-

clear-all (cancels the current game) normal (no influence: the game commences normally) clear-after-blow (cancels bets placed after the ball is ejected)

Changes to settings are confirmed by clicking on the »update« button. max time diff This setting enables you to define the deviation (in percentages) between the time of the last game and the average time. This is a type of security mechanism preventing balls from being dropped while the gaming device is in operation.

The number 0.30, which in terms of percentage is 30%, is used as the default setting. If the differences in times are large, the gaming device will detect this and stop the game (ERROR 65 is displayed). This changed setting is also confirmed by clicking on the »update« button. sensor type This setting is used to simulate defined sections of the gaming device, namely: simulation of the sensor, MB, keyboard foils, etc. The setting is selected from the drop-down list and is confirmed by clicking on the »update« button.


12


As seen in the figure above, four values can currently be selected, which are: -

sim-sensor (simulation of the sensor) server-connection (flying roulette) normal (normal roulette operation) sim-all (complete simulation: sensor, MB, membrane keys)

During normal operation of the gaming device, this setting must be set to »normal«. times two read ball This setting is used to define the minimum number of spins readings of the ball. This means that the ball must be on the same number at least twice or more when reading from the same number. The value 3 is used as the default setting.


13


bonus slot param This setting is not used. type This setting is used to define bonus games in which this option must be present. Currently, there are two bonus games available, namely spanish, which is used on gaming devices on Spanish markets, and cbslot, used in Belgium.


14


If bonus games are not required, »none« should be selected. RNG blow out This setting is used for defining additional speeds for dropping/ejecting the balls. The basic speed of drop is between 20 and 43, but can be additionally increased by 20. Example: setting 0: speed of drop between 20 and 43 setting 10; speed of drop between 20 and (43+10), which actually means the speed is between 20 and 53 Setting is not avaliable for devices with GLI approved. is logging This setting is used to create additional data logs (GLI requirement). Here the following information: -

speed of ball drops speed of wheel spin position of the wheel when balls are dropped

is listed for each game separately.

If you wish to modify any information, the option enabled/true must be selected in the settings window. The changed setting is confirmed by clicking on the »update« button.


15


win calculating win limit all boards board 01 board 02 ...... ...... board 10 This setting is used to limit the maximum win on gaming devices. The owner of the device can, in addition to limiting bets on individual game fields, also limit the maximum win in the current game. The values can be set for each gaming position separately (board 1 to board 10) or by clicking on all boards, which will limit the win at all gaming positions simultaneously.

The value defining the maximum win is denoted in credits and not in monetary value. The monetary value is derived by dividing the value by the number of credits using the setting money to credit conversion (game settings). win limit run time enable This setting allows an on-line calculation of the maximum win with regard to the current bet. At the moment, this setting is only used on roulettes utilising the Spanish bonus game.


16


special type This setting enables you to define the calculation of wins on gaming devices. There are currently five modes of calculation available, namely:

-

none: the win is calculated according to the principle 1/36 (normal roulette), nasser: the win is calculated according to the principle 1/35. German tipping: a calculation whereby for bets on three and caval, one credit is removed for each 36 credits won, spanish-old: a calculation according to the old Spanish method, and english: for bets on simple fields where drops on zero fields return half of the winnings to the player. ctrl alt del disabled

This setting is used for turning on or turning off the task manager software tool. This should only be used if any of the open software tools freeze. If you wish to use this function, the option enabled/true in the settings window should be chosen. The option is confirmed by clicking on the »update« button.


17


jackpot This setting enables or disables the use of the jackpot function on the gaming device. By clicking on the chosen setting, a window opens on which the type of jackpot is selected.

As seen in the above settings window, the operator may choose from three different options:


18


-

progressive-jackpot (allows a progressive jackpot to be set in which the value of the win is shown for each gaming position separately), progressive-jackpot-display-tcp (is identical to the previous setting, except that the win is additionally shown on the external display; gaming device and jackpot display are connected to each other via a network cable), and progressive-jackpot-display (external display and gaming device are connected to each other via a multiplexer).

The selected setting is confirmed by clicking on the »update« button. logic The setting is in use. number of player stations This setting is used for defining the number of gaming stations (positions) at the gaming device. Currently, the following settings are used: 5 − for gaming devices with five gaming positions (STAR) 6 − for gaming devices with six gaming positions (SX) 8 − for gaming devices with eight gaming positions (UFO or OMEGA) 10 − for gaming devices with ten gaming positions (GALAXY) previous bet This setting enables the automatic placing of bets from previous games. You can select between two different types, namely: -

yes (where the bets placed in the previous game are repeated) only winning numbers (where only those bets won in the previous game are repeated) no (disables the function)

A display of how both above functions work is shown below.


19

repeat This setting enables you to configure the »repeat«, »double« and »delete« buttons. The functions of the buttons are defined in the settings window shown below.


20


A description and explanation of the individual settings follows: -

double (by checking this function, bets are doubled) repeat (by checking this function, bets from the previous game are repeated) delete-last (allows bets to be erased with one click; the last bet is erased and with a subsequent click all placed bets are erased) delete-history (allows the erasing of bets in the consecutive order they were placed; the first click erases the last bet placed, the next click erases the second-to-last bet placed, etc.) delete-select (allows the erasing of bets by the player; the player may erase any bet he/she wishes) responding COM time

This setting defines the minimum time period in which a reply to transmitted information will still be correctly accepted or sent. This setting is only used with COM 2. The value 140ms is the factory setting (used as the default setting) and should not be changed. spins before eating This setting allows you to define how many spins after the droped number is read will the ball remain on the wheel. Two settings are currently used, namely: -

default hitachi-inverter


21


Under the default setting, the gaming device will immediately remove the ball when it drops into a number, whereas the hitachi-inverter setting will allow the ball to stay on the wheel for one spin longer. The settings are not actually dependent on the choice of frequency transformers, but if a hitachi-frequency device is installed on the gaming device, the hitachi-inverter option must be selected. chips value chip 01 chip 02 ..... ..... chip 07 This setting is used for defining values for individual tokens or chips. Seven types of values are available. First, the number of chips must be selected (number). Next, their values are defined. An example of defining individual chips: Example for x1, x10 and FULL: Under the setting (number), enter the value 3, whereby the values of the first three chips are defined.


22


Display of chip values on the roulette:

Example for x1, x10, x50, x100, x250 and x500: This setting is very similar to the previous one, except that in this case, six chips instead of three have been selected.

To see if the desired languages are available in stereo or mono formats, first check with the manufacturer. text language all boards board 01 board 02 .... .... board 10 This setting allows you to select the language in which text files are displayed. These are files available to all players. You can select between a group setting (all boards) or settings for each gaming position separately. We recommend that the default text language be set at all gaming positions separately. In this case as well, a variety of language options are available.


24


The figure below shows an example of a text display on the gaming device.

layouts all boards board 01 board 02 .... .... board 10 This setting defines the type of layout displayed when the gaming device is first turned on. Layouts can be defined for each gaming position separately, meaning that each gaming position can have its own layout or the same layout can be selected for all the gaming positions. In the latter case, the layout at all gaming positions will be identical. The setting is defined by selecting the desired layout in the settings window.


25


Four layouts are currently available, namely: -

1_02 ... 1_36 This setting defines the maximum and minimum limits for bets. These values can be set for each gaming position separately (board1 – board10) or for all gaming positions (all boards): - 1_01: minimum and maximum bet on one number (STRAIGHT UP) - 1_02: minimum and maximum bet on two numbers (SPLIT) - 1_03: minimum and maximum bet on three numbers (TRIO) - 1_04: minimum and maximum bet on four numbers (CORNER) - 1_06: minimum and maximum bet on six numbers (LINE) - 1_12: minimum and maximum bet on twelve numbers (DOZEN or COLUMN) - 1_36: minimum and maximum bet on eighteen numbers (LOW, HIGH, ODD, EVEN)

Under the column max board, the maximum number of bets that can be placed can be defined (in credits) on the game wheel per individual game. max tokens This setting enables you to define the maximum number of placed chips in any one game. This means the number of different fields a player can place bets on in any one game.

The figure above shows a limited number of chips or tokens placed (20) in the current game. timing screensaver active This setting is used for activating the screensaver. The gaming device goes into screensaver mode when no credits remain at the gaming position.


29


number of spins to activate This setting is used to define the number of spins (games) until the screensaver mode is switched on. If we take, as an example, 2 spins, the gaming position will revert to screensaver mode after two games from the moment the number of credits equals zero. time This setting is used to define the time interval for ejecting balls when the gaming device is in screensaver mode. This means that in this case, the device will eject a ball every 100 seconds if the value is set to 100. bets time This is the amount of time in seconds between the start of a game and the ejection of the ball. no more bets time This is the amount of time in seconds between the ejection of the ball and the closing of bets. still time This is the amount of time in seconds between the last button hit and the ejection of the ball. Individual time intervals are shown in the figure below.

tokens value token 01 token 02 ... token 07


30


This setting is used to define the limits for individual tokens (chips). The limit is represented by a colour scale for individual tokens. How are individual limits set? Lets take the combination x1, x10 and FULL as an example. Under the setting tokens-number, enter the value 3; then, under the setting tokens-value, enter the following individual values: token 01: enter 9 token 02: enter 99 or the limit at which the token will change to the following colour (as desired) token 03: enter 500 (this is the maximum limit and is equal to the maximum bet)

The figure below displays the changing of token colours.

Let's take as another example the combination x2, x4, x10, x50, x100, x250 and x500 using seven tokens. Under the setting tokens-number, enter the value 7; then, under individual limit values: token 01: enter 2 token 02: enter 8 token 03: enter 48 token 04: enter 98 token 05: enter 248 token 06: enter 498 token 07: enter 1000 (this is the maximum limit and is equal to the maximum bet)

number This setting is used to define the number of individual tokens. The number is equal to the number entered under the setting chips-number. win counting active all boards GOLD CLUB CASINO ♣ Kraska cesta 4 ♣ 6210 Sezana ♣ Slovenia ♣ Europe Tel.: +386 5-7311-562 ♣ fax: +386 5-7311-561 www.gold-club.si ♣ e-mail: [email protected]

board 01 board 02 .... .... board 10 This setting is used to define the type of transfer of winnings. If the option is enabled, the win will not be transferred in one amount, but gradually. In reality, the transfer of winnings is a simulation of counting by mechanical counters. The setting can be defined for all gaming positions as a whole, or separately for each gaming position.

The principle of transferring wins when the option is enabled is shown below.

The figure above shows how winnings are gradually transferred into credits. bet type This setting defines or, respectively, allows you to set the type of bet. Three types are possible, namely:


32


-

credits chips spanish chips

Currently only the two settings credits and spanish chips are used. What is the difference? The difference between credits and spanish chips is that in the case of spanish chips, the player may only bet precisely defined values regarding bets dependent on the setting (2, 4, 10, 50, 100, 250, 500). Thus, bets such as 8, 52, etc. may not be placed. If, on the other hand, the credits option is selected, all bet values can be placed regardless of the setting (1, 2, 20, 22, 142, etc.). money to credit conversion This setting enables you to define the relationship between monetary value and credits. If you wish 1€ to equal 10 credits, the value 10 is entered. This setting only refers to bonus games, which must be played prior to the roulette game (valid in Spain).


33


HARDWARE SETTINGS additional foil type This setting allows you to define the types of foil for keyboards. Two types of foil are available: foil with a series circuit, and foil without a series circuit.

.... .... H serial bill active By using the above-displayed settings, you can define the settings for individual banknotes. The gaming device can accept up to eight different banknote denominations (A-H) by which each banknote must be described separately. Each banknote is first given a status (active) and then a code (code), the number of credits (credit) and a name (string). These four parameters are used to describe individual banknotes. Description of individual parameters: -

active (enables the activation of an individual banknote; prior to entering the remaining parameters, this field should be set to 1 and the game set up once again) code (the code of the banknote that is obtained with the aid of the GC terminal; when the bank note is inserted, the reader returns a certain code (205) − the value is then entered into the field) credit (number of credits per individual banknote is entered here, as desired) nominal (the face value of the banknote is entered, which is, in reality, the actual value of the banknote) string (ml_bills_A is entered for the first bank note, ml_bills_B for the second bank note, etc.)

Serial bill: If the gaming device uses a bill acceptor that utilises serial communication, this option must be activated. This is done by selecting the value true under the settings for active.

Similarly to banknotes, the same applies to coins. The gaming device can accept up to five varieties of coins (A-E) in which each coin must be described according to the already mentioned parameters. The meaning of parameters in this case is completely identical to those of banknotes. Description of parameters: See the parameter values valid for banknotes. The only difference is that under the parameter strings for coins, the following strings must be used: ml_coinsA, ml_coinsB, etc. destination This setting enables you to denote the path of coins when accepted. Three options are available, namely: -

coin to dropbox (coins are directed into the dropbox upon acceptance) coin to hopper (coins are directed into the hopper upon acceptance) combination of both (coins are directed into the hopper upon acceptance and, when full, redirected to the dropbox) drop max

This setting is used to define the maximum number of accepted coins in the dropbox. hopper mask This setting is used to define the masks for the hopper and dropbox. This is the only way of letting the gaming device know precisely which method to use for directing coins into the hopper or dropbox. Description of individual masks: • hopper-hw-min: The gaming device will consider the minimum hardware limit of the hopper. When the level of coins is lower than the limit, it will notify the owner or manager of the gaming device of this (traffic flow) that the hopper in the designated gaming position will shortly be empty. • hopper-hw-maxmin: The gaming device will consider the minimum and maximum hardware limits of the hopper. If the level of coins is higher than the allowed limit, the gaming device will automatically disable the continued acceptance of coins. • hopper-sw-maxmin: The gaming device will consider the minimum and maximum software limits of the hopper. When the number of coins is less than the minimum limit, the gaming device will disable GOLD CLUB CASINO ♣ Kraska cesta 4 ♣ 6210 Sezana ♣ Slovenia ♣ Europe Tel.: +386 5-7311-562 ♣ fax: +386 5-7311-561 www.gold-club.si ♣ e-mail: [email protected]

further payouts. On the other hand, if the number of coins exceeds the maximum limit, the further acceptance of coins will be disabled. The minimum and maximum number of coins is defined using the settings hopper max and hopper min. • hopper-sw-max: The gaming device will only consider the upper software limit. • hopper-sw-min: The gaming device will only consider the lower software limit. • hopperdrop-hhwdsw-hmaxdmax: In addition to the upper hardware limit of the hopper, the gaming device will also consider the upper software limit of the dropbox. If the level of coins in the hopper exceeds the allowed limit, further coins will be redirected into the dropbox. When the number of coins in the dropbox reaches the maximum limit (drop max), the further acceptance of coins will be disabled. • none-none-none: The gaming device will not consider any of the aforementioned masks. • hopperdrop-sw-max: The gaming device will consider both the software limit of the hopper and the software limit of the dropbox. When both maximum limits are reached (number of coins in hopper = hopper max and number of coins in dropbox = drop max), the further acceptance of coins will be disabled. • hopperdrop-sw-hmindmax: • hopperdrop-hhwdsw-halldmax: The gaming device will consider the minimum and maximum hardware limit of the hopper and the maximum software limit of the dropbox. • drop-sw-max: This mask is displayed on gaming devices where only a dropbox is installed. If this becomes full (number of coins = maximum number of coins), the further acceptance of coins will be disabled. • hopper-hw-max: The gaming device only considers the upper hardware limit of the hopper. If full, the further acceptance of coins will be disabled. • hopperdrop-sw-maxmin: hopper max This setting is used to define the maximum number of coins in the hopper. hopper min This setting is used to define the minimum number of coins in the hopper. reset on timeout GOLD CLUB CASINO ♣ Kraska cesta 4 ♣ 6210 Sezana ♣ Slovenia ♣ Europe Tel.: +386 5-7311-562 ♣ fax: +386 5-7311-561 www.gold-club.si ♣ e-mail: [email protected]

Figure 6: Autobackup set-up window In addition to the data selection, the autobackup interval has to be selected as well. It can be set anywhere between 5 and 300s. A 5s interval means that the machine will backup the selected data every 5 seconds. Another thing that has to be determined here is to which locationthe data should backup data. You do that by setting up a _backup file, which you create yourself, on a selected disk (flash disk or USB stick). SERIAL PORT CONFIG By clicking the selected button, a configuration box opens in which the speed of the data transfer of the individual communication ports is set. The figure below shows an example of a configuration box.


49


Figure 7: Serial port configuration box As mentioned above, this software tool is used to set the data transfer speed of the individual communication ports, either those on the computer or those on the multiplexer.

Description of individual parts of the configuration box

In the first selection choose the communication port. The program offers two options to select from: --avail-- and --file--. --avail--: contains all existing communication ports, i.e. all operating communication ports. --file--: contains all communication ports, but they are not necessarily all active. Therefore the user has to always select among the –avail—communication ports.


50


In the second selection, the data transfer for the individual communication ports (com port) is selected. There are seven different speeds available to choose from. At the moment, there are only two different speeds used on the gaming machine: 9600kbit/s (this speed is selected if the connected device is either the gaming machine keyboard or the mainboard) 115200kbit/s (this speed is selected if the connected device is a multiplexer via COM port) or 921600kbit/s (if the connected device is a multiplexer via USB)

By means of the »ADD«, »REMOVE« and »SAVE« buttons, you can add, delete or save individual settings.

How to set the speed of the individual communication ports Example.: You want to connect the first gaming spot of the device on the COM PORT no. 5. In the first part (section --file--) select number 5. The keyboard, as we know, requires a transfer speed of 9600kbit/s, therefore select 9600 in the second part and click ADD. Option is used if you want to remove the device from one com port to another. More instructions are writeing below.

How to remap the actual com port? This option is used when replacing the multiplexer (hereinafter: the device). In some cases, the gaming machine might fail to assign the preliminary settings to the device (assigning them to another COM port). The gaming machine will not register the changes upon start-up, thus generating an error. With the aid of the REMAP button in the SerialComConfig configuration window, we can open a screen in which the configuration of the connected device can be changed.


51


Figure 8: Port remapping configuration box First, the port that we want to change or rename must be selected. Then, click the Remap button. In the window that appears (figure below), enter the appropriate COM port and confirm by clicking OK.

When selecting it, it has to begin with 1 for the keyboards. The selection is not important for other devices. Selection of the communication port. We can select between two kinds of ports: com port computer and multiplexer. If you select the port 30301 that means that the keyboard is connected to the other multiplexer port.


53


What does the number 30301 mean? 3 03 01 – the first number is fixed and does not change 3 03 01 – the number of the computer communication port to which a multiplexer or the gaming device point is connected 3 03 01 – consecutive number of the multiplexer communication port By means of the additional keys: -

Arranging and changing the names of the individual parameters: If you are registered as a system administrator the program enables you to change the names of the individual meters. You can do that by pressing the »enter« (central 2to1) key in the Standard meters window. An editor will open, which enables you to edit or change the names of the individual meters. An example is presented in the figure below.


87


Figure 33: Presentation of a window in which you can change names As seen in the figure above, it is possible to change the names of all parameters. You can select names according to your own judgement. If you change the names of any parameters you have to save changes before closing the window. You do so by pressing the UPDATE button. First set focus (zero spiel) on it and then press enter (central 2to1). Close the window by using the Close button or Escape (Neighbours), but that will also cancel the possible name changes. Selection of meters in the meter groups selection This selection is very similar to the previous one, but the program selects a suitable group of meters in the standard meters after you have selected a certain value. You can reach the predefined selection by pressing the »zero spiel« button until the window turns red. The example is shown below.


88


Figure 34: Example of selection of predefined meters The selection of individual values is exactly the same as for the previous selection. Move around the meters with the »red« »black« key and confirm by clicking the »2nd12« key. As mentioned above, the program automatically selects the related parameters in the standard meters or in the expression meters after you have selected a certain parameter. Some examples are shown below.


89


Similarly to the previous selection, you can open the window with additional settings by pressing enter (central 2to1). The window is similar to the one for changing the names of meters, however, the group to which the selected meter belongs is determined here for the individual meters. One of the following groups can be determined for an individual meter: none, main, credit in, credit out, bills, coins, and custom. A group is selected by entering the name of the group or by selecting it from a list, which you can open by using the keys Alt+down.


90


Figure 35: Meter grouping Selection of meters in expression meters In the expression meters section the user can prepare his/her own meters that can consist of the standard or pre-composed meters. This can be carried out only by users enabled to do so. The selection of individual meters is the same as in the previous two parts, therefore it is not necessary to describe it again. We are going to concentrate on the preparation of one's own meter. First, place the focus on the mentioned window and click enter (central 2to1). A set-up window opens in which all the necessary parameters are set. It is shown in the figure below.


91


Figure 36: Window where you enter a new meter As shown in the figure above, it is necessary to select certain parameters in order to enter your own meter. These are selected in the right part of the set-up window. Description of individual parameters: expr.name enter the name of the formula or parameter aggregates select the aggregate type (sum, min, max, avg, etc.) This parameter is used only in combination with the parameter Meter A meter A select the first meter operator select the operator between the meter A and meter B or between meter A and value meter B select the second meter value if you enter a certain value here, the program will consider meter A and the value. After finishing the entry, you have to confirm it by pressing the button »ADD expr«. Similarly you can change the parameters of the existing composed meters. Save changes by pressing the Update expr button. An existing composed meter can be deleted by selecting it from the list and deleting it with the button Delete expr.


92


GRID: All values of the previously selected parameters are shown here. If the review of the individual gaming spots is active you can see all meters at an individual gaming spot.

Figure 37: Review of finances according to the individual gaming spots The figure above shows all parameters of an individual gaming spot. In our case, this is the gaming spot number 1. If the user selects display according to the individual gaming spots, the display will not depend on the meter selection in the menu; the program will show all active meters at that spot. We can select between temp and global at the individual spot. The display is somewhat different if the data for the entire gaming machine is being reviewed. Only the data that we have selected in the meters set-up window are shown here and you can select between the temp and global.


93


Figure 38: Review of the gaming machine finances Additional settings are available here for the columns in the table. You can open the window with the additional settings by putting the focus on the Custom column box and pressing the space key (2nd12). Sorting criteria for the individual columns can be set (increasing, decreasing, without) and the type of calculation for a column (sum, min, max, avg, count). An additional option is to export the data from the table to the file, either to the HTML, XML, TXT or XLS file. When selecting the export file, press the key combination CTRL+E (SERIES+9).

The operator has another option with data direction. With this option the operator can print all data, but the preliminary condition is that the ticket printers are installed. When the button PRINT is pressed the setting window is opening. The window is showed on the picture below.


94


Figure 39: Data print setting window How can we print the data with using ticket printers? In the first window »meter list« are all meters witch we can print. If we want to print any meter which is not in this list we must first set it in the main window »meters; see page 16«. In the »meters to be printed« window are all meters witch will be printed? The operator can also set printing order. This mean that we can set which meter is printing first, witch second, etc. For doing this the »up« and »down« buttons are used. Operator can also add the border line between two columns (add border button). Presence of the border line is visible like -delimiter-- text between to meters in the meters to be printed window. Beside this the operator can also delete (current or all) meters by the printed list. If the button »all« is pressed, all meters will be deleted. If just the meter is chosen and the button current is pressed, just this meter will be deleted. The operator can also set two additional settings. First one is Include Summary and the second one is Include Header. If you set Include Summary the printer will print beside all meters also the sum of the separate column. If the Include header option is set the printer will print the header of separate columns. For printing the data the button PRINT must be pressed.


95


CHART: Graphical statistics of the gaming device are shown here, either the entire statistics or the statistics for the individual gaming spots. The same as in the previous part, the user has the option to select between the temp and global.

Figure 40: An example of graphical statistics presentation for individual gaming spots The difference between the graphic presentation of an individual gaming spot and the joint statistics is that in the joint statistics the user selects among three types of data display: bar chart line chart pie chart If you select the Pie chart type, you can select the meter that you want to see in the drop-down menu by the chart. You can only select among the meters that were selected in the Meters tab.

INVERTER’S DESCRIPTION

Inverter is a device used to change the main motor’s (plate’s motor) rotation speed. Inverter is changing the speed in proportion with the frequency. If the frequency is higher, the speed is higher the and vice versa. For the proper functioning the inverter needs to be programmed and certain parameters need to be set. That can be done by using a special key. The external image of the inverter is shown in the figure 1.

Figure 1: Frequency inverter commander SE 1.1 DISPLAYS DESCRIPTION Frequency inverter consists of two displays and six keys. They are located in the upper part of the inverter. The displays are used to show certain values while the keys are used for programming.

INVERTER AND MAIN BOARD COMMUNICATION

Inverter is connected to the main board with the INVERTER cable. These two elements (main board and inverter) communicate in impulses. It is a one way communication in direction main board → inverter. The main board is sending to the inverter four bit commands of which three bits are used as information about the spinning frequency, while the other bit is used to switch the inverter on or off. The motor reaches its highest speed when all of the three bits are set up to »0«.

Figure 3: Inverter and main board communication The steps of changing the motor’ speed is shown in the table below.

1.0 THE ROULETTE’S CONNECTION To function properly the roulette needs 230V of AC current. Use 3x2.5mm2 cable. Cable entry is connected in the distribution box on the first three connection pins. The electric poles must not be mistakenly substituted. Always use the next following order:

L (phase)…...left end N (null)……..the middle PE (gnd)…....right end

1.1 DISTRIBUTION BOX DESCRIPTION The distribution box is a box in which all of the roulette’s main switches are placed. Beside the switches also the over voltage protection, the contactor, safety fuses and the electric pins used to connect the cable entry are placed there. On every pin and switch in the distribution box there is a high voltage, so it needs to be open with special precaution. THE DISTRIBUTION BOX ELEMENTS As mentioned above the distribution box consists of the elements used to switch on and to protect single electrical systems. Elements used to switch on the system are switches and the contactor, while the safety elements are the safety fuses and the over voltage protection. All of the safety fuses in the distribution box are automatic - they don’t need to be replaced after the failure. The elements’ distribution in the distribution box is shown in the picture below.

Figure 1: Distribution box elements

• Connection pins (L, N, and PE) Used to connect the entry cable. Be careful with the electric poles distribution. Before the main switch is switched on, use the current indicator to check the proper connection (the indicator has to light only on the L (phase) connection pin). • Over voltage protection Used to protect single electrical systems from the voltage that is too high. That can happen when the lightning strikes, etc. In case the over voltage protector is ruined the indicator doesn’t light. • Main switch Used to switch on or off the roulette’s current. When the roulette is connected to the electric grid, the main switch needs to be switched on. At the daily turn off of the roulette, the main switch remains switched on. It is switched off only in case of roulette’s malfunction. • Manual switch Used to switch on the roulette manually. It is used mainly for service purposes. • Contactor Used to switch on the single electrical systems automatically. • Automatic safety fuses • CTRL (B6) The safety fuse used to protect the electronic (power box, manual sw) from overloading and the short circuit. • ROOF (B10) The safety fuse used to protect the roof from overloading and the short circuit. • PWR SUPPLY (B16) The safety fuse used to protect the inverter, UPS and transformer from overloading and the short circuit. • MONIT (C20) The safety fuse used to protect monitors from overloading and the short circuit.

KASA DESCRIPTION AND USE

Kasa is an additional option of the roulette. It consists of the central computer and the printer. The computer's role is to communicate with the roulette. The printer is used for printing payments, pay-outs, statements of accounts etc. To each kasa up to five single roulettes can be connected. Kasa's quality to enable each player to receive an invoice of his or her payments and pay-outs makes it a very useful program tool. Kasa also provides daily reviews of the payments and pay-outs referred to each of the roulettes.

INSTALATION

2.1 KASA SETTINGS IN THE ROULETTE To set kasa into the roulette you need to contact the Gold Club Service authorized staff. For further information please contact us at: - [email protected] -telephone number: +386 57 311 562 You also have to provide us with information about the serial number of the roulette and the software version you use.

2.1.1 DEMONSTRATION OF PARTICULAR SETTINGS IN THE SETTINGS DATABASE

That also is in competence of the Gold Club Service staff. Fur further assistance please call our number: +386 57 311 562. 2.2 INSTALLATION AND SETTING OF THE RULETA CONSOLE PROGRAM TOOL It takes a bit more of pretentiousness to place and set the RuletaConsole program tool in comparison to setting kasa into the roulette. More parameters need to be set. In order to make kasa operate correctly all of the parameters the program tool requires need to be set. At first the program tool Ruleta Console needs to be set into the RuletaConsole folder (picture no.2). Basicly there is only one folder ( Prazni ). Therefore two more have to be made: Arhiv and LOGx. For each new roulette attached to kasa a new LOG folder has to be made. The next step is to copy (and rename) the database of FinanceX.mdb, Fakture.mdb and Players.mdb from the Prazni folder. FinanceX.mdb databases are created for each roulette separately, whereas Fakture.mdb and Players.mdb are created collectively.

Picture 2: Demonstration of particular file settings When the required program tool is set, kasa and the roulette can be connected. As mentioned, up to five roulettes can be connected to one kasa, except for the German version. In the German version there is an additional GC cable contoller used to manage with smart keys connected to one of the COM ports so up to four roulettes can be connected to kasa. Demonstration of connecting kasa and the roulette with electric cable is shown in the picture no.3.


4


Picture 3: Electric scheme of the cable used to connect kasa and the roulette Once the software is correctly set and kasa and the roulette are connected the program tool Ruleta Console can be run. The program demands the password. The initial password is “pop”. The password cannot be changed and it stands only for the basic kasa settings . Once the password is correctly written the setting window appears on the screen (picture no.4).

The upper part enables credit payments and pay-outs referred to each player position whereas the lower part reviews the current credits condition at each of the players positions. 2.3 REVIEW OF THE BASIC COMMUNICATION COMMANDS BETWEEN KASA AND THE ROULETTE 2.3.1

CREDITS PAYMENTS

Put the amount of money you would like to pay in inside the blank space (picture no.6). Then choose the currency with ALT+S (for slovene tolars) or ALT+E (for euro). To pay in the amount, use keys F1-F10: F1 for player position no.1, F2 for player position no.2 etc. In addition to payments of the credits at kasa you can also use bill acceptor or smart key to pay in directly into the roulette.

Picture 6: Credits payment segment 2.3.2

CREDITS PAY-OUTS

Pay-out of the credits is similar to the payments, only in the blank space you have to put in the number of credits you wish to pay out and press F1-F10, depending on the player position (picture no.7).

Picture 7: Credits pay-out segment As seen on picture no.6 the amount of money that has been put into the blank space is transformed to credits by the tolar2credit proportion. It is the same with the pay-outs, only here the pay-outs are in credits which transform to money by the same proportion. 2.3.3

STATEMENTS OF ACCOUNTS

Statement of account is a result of all payments and pay-outs. It provides information about payments and pay-outs during the shift or during the day. When the shift or day is over the account is closed. You can access the account by pressing CTRL+Z. Statements of accounts are divided in two parts:


9


-X -Z X account is the one still in function and Z account is the closed one. You can close the account by clicking on it with the mouse and then pressing the 'statement of account' (obračun) button. You can also print both of the accounts (X and Z). X account can be printed by clicking on it and pressing the enter key. The statement of account window can be closed by pressing CTRL+Z.

KASA CONNECTION (English version)

The English version operates in a slightly different way. The basis is the same as in normal as German version (PC, printer). The only difference is that the English version contains additional printers in the roulette besides the main printer and the CCD code reader. The additional printers are placed inside the roulette for each of the players positions. These printers are used by players to print their bills. The cashier uses these bills to check the CCD code. If the invoice is closed the money can be paid out.

KEYBOARD CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

Keyboard circuit is one of the roulette’s main parts. It is used for the keyboard’s communication with other elements connected to it by the PC. The main part of the keyboard circuit is the processor used to process the signals sent from other components connected to the circuit. The additional elements are: the keyboard foil, the bet key, smart key, bill acceptor, coin acceptor and hopper. When any key is pressed the circuit sends certain codes which are fixed in advance to the PC. If the PC receives an undetermined code it will ignore it or simply register it. In a rough state the keyboard circuit consists of the processor, buzzer, dip switches and six RJ 45 connectors.

KEYBOARD CIRCUIT COMMUNICATION

2.1 KEYBOARD AND PC COMMUNICATION All of the keyboard circuit and PC communication is serial using the RS 232 protocol. For communication transfer the FTP cable is used. Physically the communication can be also transferred using the main board only because of the easier connection of the player positions. To communicate with the single keyboards the PC uses ten communicational ports- from COM5 to COM14.

Picture 2: Keyboard circuit communication

2.2 OTHER ELEMENTS COMMUNICATION Keyboard circuit enables communication with other elements connected to the circuit. 2.2.1

KEYBOARD AND SMART KEY COMMUNICATION

This communication starts with the demand for the microcontroller to check the smart key’s code. When the code is checked it is transferred to PC using the COM port. In case the key is not put in the demand is sent again. The demand keeps on being sent until the key is put in or until there is no need to check the code. 2.2.2

KEYBOARD AND KEYBOARD FOIL COMMUNICATION

In this case the microcontroller is constantly checking if any key is pressed. When a certain key is pressed, the received signals are first processed and then transferred to PC using the COM port. The new checking starts as soon as the last pressed key is released. 2.2.3

KEYBOARD AND BET BUTTON COMMUNICATION

The bet key functioning is the same as the one of any other key so the communication is the same as with any other key on the keyboard.


4


2.2.4

KEYBOARD AND BILL ACCEPTOR COMMUNICATION

This is a two way communication because the microcontroller first passes a demand for bill acceptor’s functioning. When the bill is entered into the bill acceptor the bill acceptor first checks it out. In case the bill is OK the bill acceptor sends impulses of certain length to the keyboard circuit. The impulse length should be 50 ms. When the bill acceptor sends the impulses to the keyboard circuit the impulses are then transformed to codes using the code table. These codes are then sent to PC using the communication channel. In case the communication through the COM port collapses accepting of bills is impossible. 2.2.5

KEYBOARD AND COIN ACCEPTOR COMMUNICATION

The communication is the same as the one with the bill acceptor because the coin acceptor is similar to the bill acceptor. The only difference is that coin acceptor accepts coins instead of bills. 2.2.6

KEYBOARD AND HOPPER COMMUNICATION

The keyboard circuit commands the hopper to pay out the coins or tokens. Besides that it also checks the level of coins, the hopper’s business with payouts etc. To pay out a certain number of coins the keyboard circuit sends to the hopper a certain number of impulses. Processor sends the command to pay out the first two tokens to the hopper. When the hopper sends its confirmation (ACK) about the first token has been pay out, the processor sends another command to pay out the second token. After the second confirmation (ACK) from the hopper the processor sends the third command to pay out the third token and so on.

THE

SINGLE

KEYBOARD

CIRCUIT

As seen on figure 1 the keyboard circuit has quite a few connectors. Only the most quality connectors are used- RJ 45. Besides the connectors the keyboard circuit also uses DIP switch to set some of the bill acceptor, coin acceptor, signal light, hopper, etc. functions. Setting and purpose of single connectors is shown on the figure below.

- to review the finances - to pay in and pay out - to review the statistic - to stop the roulette To each key some certain privileges can be determined. Do that using the Priviledge editor. The key reader is connected to the keyboard circuit with the smart key cable.

Picture 5: SMART KEY cable 3.3 BILL/COIN The bill and coin readers are connected using that connector. The readers enable the player to pay in a certain amount of money which is then converted to credit. Because the roulette is built in a way in which it can use readers from different manufacturers it is essential to set the DIP switches correctly to enable the readers to function properly. 3.4 HOPPER The hopper is connected using that connector. The hopper is used to pay out the coins. Gold Club roulettes use the MK 4 hopper. Hopper is connected to the keyboard circuit with the hopper cable.

CODES AND COMMANDS FOR KEYBOARD CONTROLLER

As mentioned above the keyboard consists of foil in which there are keys used to select bets or erase bets, etc. Each of the keys has its own code for PC to know which key has been pressed. The ID codes can be checked in the Power terminal program tool. Also by using Power terminal program tool elements which are connected to the keyboard circuit can be checked - using special commands. That elements are bill acceptors, coin acceptors, hoppers, etc.. 5.1 CODES FOR KEYBOARD CONTROLLER Key codes which are implemented in the foil are shown in the figure below.

MAIN BOARD DESCRIPTION

Main board is a part of every single roulette. It is used as connector between the PC and other components of the roulette (inverter, keyboard circuit, sensor, etc.). Its main purpose is to control the functioning of single roulette's components. Besides that it also controls the roulette's temperature. As the computer the main board is also unique this means that it cannot be replaced if malfunction appears without the Gold Club knowledge. Communication between the PC and roulette's components always run through the main board. Communication between the main board and PC and communication between the main board and the keyboard circuits is serial while other communication is impulsed.

Picture1: Main board circuit

MAIN BOARD COMMUNICATION

The main board enables two ways of communication, the serial and impulsed one. The serial communication is used to communicate between the main board and PC and the main board and the keyboard circuit. Other roulette components communicate with the main board using impulsed communication. Serial communication: from mainboard mainboard

↔ ↔

to computer keyboard

Table 1: Serial communication demonstration Impulsed communication: from mainboard mainboard mainboard mainboard

→ → → →

to sensor status power box inverter

Table 2: Impulsed communication demonstration

2.1 MAIN BOARD AND PC COMMUNICATION As mentioned before the main board is a connector between the PC and other roulette's elements. Because of that between the PC and the main board a certain information is transferred which enables single roulette's elements to function correctly. Data transfer and control is demonstrated in the figure below.


4


Picture 2: Data transfer between the Main board and other components As seen in the figure above on the highest position in the system there is the PC. The PC controls the roulette's functioning in whole. Right below the PC there is the main board which controls the power box, inverter, basic counters and security switches. On the lowest position there are elements used to pay in or pay out the money or credit. Also seen on the figure is the communication between the single layers. All of the connection between the main board and PC and the main board and keyboard circuit is serial while other is impulsed. The main board and PC communication runs through COM 2 communicational port by RS 232 protocol. 2.2 COMMUNICATION BETWEEN MAIN BOARD AND OTHER ELEMENTS As the main board is the connector between the PC and other electronic components it is used as a mediator of certain information. Most of the communication between the main board and other components is impulsed. 2.2.1

MAIN BOARD AND SENSOR COMMUNICATION

This communication is impulsed and direct. As a result the sensor is constantly sending data about the wheel’s state to the main board. The sensor is in fact sending information about crossbars, holes and the zero. Using that data the PC can determine the ball's correct location. 2.2.2

MAIN BOARD AND STATUS COMMUNICATION

This communication is also impulsed. Status is sending data about the ball's condition to the main board. In fact the status sensor is an element in which the ball is in its starting position. Using that data the PC can determine in what part of the roulette is the ball.

2.2.3

MAIN BOARD AND POWER BOX COMMUNICATION

Power box is in fact the main board’s slave. It follows the main board's orders. These orders refer to switching on the IZP motor, DVI motor, etc. The orders are analogous and impulsed 2.2.4

MAIN BOARD AND INVERTER COMMUNICATION

Inverter is used to navigate the main motor. The main motor changes the motor's speed using the frequency change. The communication with the inverter is very similar to the one with the power box. Here the main board sends its order in a 4 bit shape, the inverter then navigates the three phase main motor. This connection is also a direct one. 2.2.5 MAIN BOARD AND MECHANICAL COUNTERS COMMUNICATION ( 3 COUNTERS )

Using this connection the mechanical counters function is enabled. Mechanical counters are used to count certain parameters (INPUT, OUTPUT, GAME, etc.). They function through impulses sent from the main board. All of these impulses are rectangular. 2.2.6

MAIN BOARD AND KEYBOARD CIRCUIT COMMUNICATION

That communication is serial using the RS 232 protocol. To transfer the FTP cable is used.

SINGLE MAIN BOARD CONNECTORS DESCRIPTION

On the main board there are quite a big number of connectors. The connectors are used to charge the main board and also to communicate with other components of the automatic roulette. All of the communication connectors are high quality connectors.

Picture 3: The main circuit connection scheme 3.1 SENSOR Sensor which is used to read the certain parameters is connected to that connector. Using of the sensor enables the roulette to determine on what number the ball has fallen and what is current position of the wheel. Connection is made by SENSOR cable.


7


Picture 4: SENSOR cable

3.2 COM 2 The main connection between the main board and PC runs through that connector. The communication is serial and it runs through the COM 2 cable (figure 5).

Picture 5: COM 2 cable 3.3 AUX That connector is used to connect certain external units (circuit which enables the connection of 16 safety switches) but it is currently not in use.


8


3.4 STATUS The status sensor is connected to that connector. Its main purpose is to read the ball. It provides the roulette with the information whether the ball is in the start position or not. The main circuit and the status sensor are connected with the STATUS cable.

Picture 6: Status cable 3.5 POWER Using that connector certain commands are performed. These commands indirectly control the power box proper functioning and directly navigate two motors: -

Lifting motor Ejecting motor

Power box is connected to the main board with the POWER cable.

Picture 7: Power cable


9


3.6 INVERTER Inverter is connected using that connector. Inverter is a device used to navigate the wheel motor’s speed by changing the frequency. The motor’s speed is used to spin the wheel. The main board and the inverter are connected with the inverter cable.

Picture 8: Inverter cable 3.7 UPS On that connector UPS is connected. UPS is a battery which provides the main plate with a constant source of power. In case of power breakdown the roulette has to function perfectly for at least a while. If the main board is not connected to a constant source of voltage the roulette isn’t functioning. The diode of LED UPS signal is reminding to connect the UPS to the main board. The important thing is that the safety switches remain active if the main board is connected to UPS even if the charging stops.

3.8 FEED LINE Through that connector the main board is charged. The main board uses +5V and +12V direct current. 3.9 COUNTERS Three mechanical counters are connected here. These counters are part of the basic configuration of the roulette which means they are part of every roulette. The three counters can be used to count different parameters: -

IN all OUT all BET all WIN all GAME

Demonstration of the three counters connection is shown in the figure below.

Picture10: Three counters connection 3.10 1-4 AND 5-8 Communication between the keyboard circuit and PC runs though these two connectors. As seen on the figure below up to four keyboards can be connected to PC using the connector 1-4 or the connector 5-8.


11


Picture 11: Multicom cable 3.11 PS 1- PS 8 These connectors are used to connect the single keyboard circuits. Keyboard circuit are connected to the main board with the communicational cable (figure 12).

Picture 12: Communicational cable used to connect the main board with the keyboard circuits Because there are eight equal connectors on the main board up to eight keyboard circuits can be connected to the main board- that also means up to eight player positions can be connected to the main board. In case the roulette has more than eight player positions two of them need to be connected directly to PC.


12


3.12 JP 1 On that connector the cupola safety switches are connected. Because cupola has two safety switches that are left and right, the left safety switch is connected to the first contact (S5 A in S5 B) the right safety switch is connected to the third contact (S7 A in S7 B). On the roulette type SX the cash box is connected to the second contact (S6 A in S6 B). In case the second contact is not in use the jumper must be set. On the S8 A contact the tilt sensor is connected. On this contact the impulse has to be inverted (active when in contact). 3.13 JP 7 That connector is used to set the constant charging of the main board. As seen in the figure that connector has three pins. If on the first two contacts the jumper is connected the main board uses UPS to charge. In case the jumper is connected to the second and the third contact the main board doesn’t use the source of constant voltage but it charges from the power supply.

3.14 LED INDICATORS LED UPS

The flashing led diode is showing the main board and UPS connection. In case the led diode is flashing quickly the main board is charging from the power supply. In case of slow flashing it charges from UPS. LED STATUS

If the diode is switched on the ball is in the start position. In case the diode is switched off the ball is not in the start position (it is in the tube or on the wheel). LED START

In case the sensor functions correctly the diode is flashing. Its flashing shows the zero’s passing by the sensor. LED CROSSBAR

The diode is showing the crossbars on the plate. If the plate spins the diode has to flash. LED HOLE

The diode is showing holes on the plate. If the plate spins the diode has to flash. LED Vcc1

The diode is switched on in case of +12 V direct current used to charge the main board. LED Vcc2

The diode is switched on in case of +5V direct current used to charge the main board. GOLD CLUB CASINO ♣ Kraska cesta 4 ♣ 6210 Sezana ♣ Slovenia ♣ Europe Tel.: +386 5-7311-562 ♣ fax: +386 5-7311-561 www.gold-club.si ♣ e-mail: [email protected]

ELECTROMECHANICAL COUNTERS DESCRIPTION

GC roulettes use electromechanical counters as external units which count payments, payouts, number of games, etc. In basis every roulette has three counters. Beside these basic counters additional counters can be installed. Mostly this means additional sixteen counters. If sixteen additional counters is too few you can add sixteen more. We call that counters extension. 1.1 THREE COUNTERS As mentioned before there are three counters installed in every roulette. They are used mostly for counting payments and payouts on a single roulette. Besides that they are used to count the amount of payed money, the amount of earned money and the number of the games played on the roulette. Single counting definitions: • IN (input) it counts all of the payments ( bill IN, key IN, itd ) • OUT (output) it counts all of the payouts ( bill OUT, key OUT, itd ) • COU (counters) it counts the money paid through the BILL acceptors or games played • BET ALL it counts the amount of the gambled money • WIN ALL it counts the amount of the earned money • GAME ALL it counts all of the games. The game starts when at least one player position has bet a certain amount of money. The example of three counters is shown on the picture below.


3


Picture 1: The three counters 1.2 SIXTEEN COUNTERS You can use the 16 counters to count certain parameters on single player positions. 16 counters function exactly the same as three counters except the 16 counters need to be plugged in a direct current and to a constant source of the direct current (UPS). The configuration of the counters can be done by your choice. In this case the settings in the Mechanical XML file need to be changed. You can do that using the accompanied programme. Single counting definitions: • IN 1 (input 1) it counts all of the payments on the first player position • OUT 1 (output 1) it counts all of the payouts on the first player position • BET 1 it counts the amount of the gambled money on the first player position • WIN 1 it counts the amount of the earned money on the first player position • GAME 1 it counts the games on the first player position. The game starts when at the first player position a certain amount of money had been bet.


4


Picture 2: The 16 counters circuit 1.3 EXTENSION An extension is only the expansion of the 16 counters with additional sixteen counters more. So thirty two counters are available. This is used mostly on the multi- player position roulettes. Example: On the roulette with ten player positions you want to have counters to count BET, WIN and GAME for each of the player positions. You need three counters for each player position which makes thirty counters. So 16 counters is not enough- you need an extension which gives you thirty two counters.

ELECTROMECHANICAL COUNTERS SETUP

The setup is quite simple. Besides the setup some of the parameters need to be set (not for the three counters). Unless the settings are manufactured you need to contact the Gold Club costumer support. You can reach them by phone on +386 5 731 1562 or by email on [email protected]. You need to send them the information about the software version and the COM ports on which the 16 counters will be connected. In case you have the latest software version (1148) you can set some of the settings by yourself. Change the settings in the Mechanical.XML file or use the accompanied programme. In case of any problems contact GC costumers support. 2.1 THREE COUNTERS CONNECTION They are connected directly to the main board which means no additional settings are required. Just plug them in the main board junction.


6


Picture 4: Electric scheme of the three counters setup 2.2 SIXTEEN COUNTERS CONNECTION These counters need to be connected with the first free COM ports on the PC and to the direct current of +12 V and + 5V. Because the counters also need to function in a case of an electric circuit cut out they need to be connected to a constant source of direct current (UPS). The counters also need to be initialized. To do that you need to contact the Gold Club authorized staff on the number: + 386 5 731 1562. In case the roulette has the latest software version you can initialize the counters using the accompanied programme.


7


Picture 5: Electric scheme of the 16 counters setup 2.3 SIXTEEN COUNTERS AND EXTENSION CONNECTION It is quite simple to connect the additional counters. If the 16 counters have already been connected all you need to add is an extension. Use the accompanied cable ( 1/1 flat cable ). Besides the connection you need to set the additional 16 counters settings using the accompanied programme.

mModification of DVI motor Modification of lifting motor (DVI motor) helps to prevent failure of DVI relay in power box. Gold Club uses two almost identical versions of DVI motors. Document helps you to modificate both. You have to do 3 cuts, 2 bridges (wire connections) and put additional diode. Cuts are marked red, bridges are marked yellow and diode position and orientation is marked with blue color. Additional diode can be any sillicon diode (1N4148, BA…, 1N400x, …), we use 1N4004 SMD diode. In case of dvi relay failure in power box, first change damaged DVI relay and than do the modification. This modification is already done on roulettes manufactured after august 2003.

DESCRIPTION

A multiplexer is a device which enables us to transmit a large number of information signals via a small number of lines or channels. It is used wherever the number of lines does not equal the number of outputs. Multiplexers are classified into several groups: -

multiplexer multiplexer multiplexer multiplexer

4/1 8/1 16/1 20/1

The name multiplexer 4/1 means that all four inputs/outputs can be reduced to a single input/output.

Figure 1: Multiplexer 4/1

2.0 COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE MUX AND GAMBLING DEVICE OR BETWEEN THE MUX AND EXTERNAL PC

THE THE

Between all elements, i.e. between the multiplexer and gambling devices and also between the multiplexer and the additional interfaces, there is serial, bidirectional communication. RS 232 communication protocol is used. In addition to asynchronous serial communication, communication via the USB can be used as well.

Figure 2: The communication principle of the multiplexer with other components 2.1 THE ROLE OF MUX IN ROULETTE Here, the multiplexer replaces the communication cards used for communication between the individual gambling spots (keyboard controller) and the computer. The communication between the multiplexer and the computer is either serial ( RS232 ) or via USB. Packages of certain lengths are transmitted (Figure 5). Unlike the communication in the ON_LINE system, the data block here is 8-bit, not 9-bit, because the wake up bit is not needed.


4


Figure 3: Connecting the MUX in the gambling device

2.1.1

CONNECTING THE MULTIPLEXER

In this system the multiplexer replaces the communication cards. Connection of the individual keyboards to the main board is exactly the same as the previous connection and will not be changed. What changes in this system is that the connectors 1-4 and 5-8 on the main board need to be connected to the first two input connectors of the multiplexer, that is, connectors 14 and 5-8. 2.1.1.1 CONNECTION VIA COM PORT The multiplexer can be connected two ways: via the com port or via the USB. The figure below shows the connection of the multiplexer via the com port.


5


Figure 4: Presentation of multiplexer connection via COM port To connect both elements use the MUX-PC communication cable, which is shown in Figure 5 below.

Figure 5: PC-MUX communication cable In addition to the connection between the multiplexer and the computer, a connection between the multiplexer and the main board of the gambling device is needed as well. The devices are connected with the Main Board – MUX communication cable, shown in Figure 6 below.


6


Figure 6: Main Board-Multiplexer communication cable

2.2.1.2 CONNECTION VIA USB PORT In addition to the COM port connection, the multiplexer can be connected also via the USB. This type of connection is shown in the figure below.

Figure 7: Presentation of the multiplexer connection via the USB

2.2 THE ROLE OF MUX IN THE ON_LINE SYSTEM One of the possible uses of the multiplexer is in the ON_LINE system. Currently, the multiplexer is used in the SAS ON_LINE system. With this protocol the ON_LINE server asks the gambling device for certain information and the gambling device transmits the replies to the questions asked. In the event that the gambling device does not reply, the ON_LINE server sends the command again. If the gambling device does not transmit the answer after the third attempt, a system error will occur.

Figure 8: Communication principle between the gambling device and the ON_LINE server Detailed description of the communication protocol: The multiplexer receives certain data in the form of packages from the external devices. These packages are 9-bit, with 8 data bits and 1 wake up bit.

Figure 9: Presentation of the data block


8


The data the multiplexer receives from the gambling machine are somewhat different in form. Here the multiplexer receives the packages of certain lengths, but the structure of the packages is a little different. Each package consists of three parts: - head of the package - address - data The principle of the package structure is shown in the figure below.

Figure 10: Presentation of a package sent to MUX by the gambling device (roulette) 2.2.1

CONNECTING THE MULTIPLEXER IN THE ON-LINE SYSTEM

Connecting the multiplexer in the ON-LINE system is somewhat different. In this case two multiplexers have to be used, the first one to connect the individual gambling spots of the device and the other to connect the interfaces of the ON-LINE system. The connection is shown in the figure below.

Figure 11: Presentation of multiplexer connection in the SAS ON-LINE system In this system the cables used to connect the first multiplexer and the main board, and the multiplexer and the computer, are the same as those for connection via the COM port.

new cable in this case is the one that connects the second multiplexer and the interfaces for the SAS ON-LINE system, which is shown in the figure below.

Figure 12: Connecting cable between the multiplexer and the interfaces of the SAS system

MULTIPLEXER CONNECTIONS

As mentioned in the introduction, 20 devices can be connected to the multiplexer, which means that it has 20 input channels. The number of channels is limited with the speed of data transfer, i.e. the higher the speed, the lower the number of the channels used. In addition to the data transfer connections the multiplexer also needs one-way electrical supply with voltage between +7V and + 30V.

Figure 13: Multiplexer connections 3.1 IN1-IN5 Termination connectors IN1-IN5 are used to connect certain input units. The input units can either be the individual roulette gambling spots or special interfaces between the MUX and the ON_LINE server in cases where the multiplexer is used as an element of the ON_LINE system. Up to »four« external devices can be connected to the individual connectors. To connect the elements mentioned, use the cable shown in Figure 6 if you are connecting individual gambling spots, or the cable shown in Figure 9 if you are connecting the interfaces of the ON-LINE system.


11


3.2 OUT Communication between the MUX and the gambling device (usually an electronic roulette) is carried out via this termination connector. The devices are connected via the MUX communication cable.

Figure 14: Connecting cable between the MUX and the electronic roulette 3.3 OUT USB This connection enables communication between the multiplexer and the electronic roulette via the USB. 3.4 X1 A programming device for processor programming is connected via this connection. 3.5 FEED LINE Here the power supply of the multiplexer is connected. In order to operate, the MUX needs +7V to +30V of the one-way electrical supply voltage.


12


Figure 15: Connecting the multiplexer power supply 3.6 X2 A bridge is inserted onto this termination bar when you want to connect the mass to the cases of the DB 9 connectors as well. If the bridge is not inserted, the connector cases have no mass. In that case the mass is connected only to pin5 of the previously mentioned connectors. 3.7 X3 This termination bar enables you to connect/disconnect the power supply at certain circuit elements. The bridges are inserted at the factory when manufactured and are not to be turned off later on.

POWER BOX DESCRIPTION

Power box circuit is used to perform certain commands. That commands are send by the main board. Basically the power box has the control over the blow out motor, rising motor and also some other parts of the electronic roulette. Once the command (impulse) is send from the main board the power box switches on the relay and the command is performed. The power box circuit is shown in the figure 1. It is basically composed of relays, transistors, safety fuses, etc.

Figure 1: Power box circuit Power box is used to switch on the contactor in the distribution box. The roulette functions in a way that when the computer is started, all of the other electronic components are switched on in chain, automatically. The way of switching on is shown in the figure below.

POWER BOX FUNCTIONING

As mentioned above the power box gets commands (impulses) from the main board. The main board sends the command to the power box and the power box performs it. The main task of the power box is to switch on the contactor in the distribution box. Besides that the power box also switches on the rising motor and the blow out motor. All of the commands are sent to the power box through the POWER cable, which is connected to COM connector.

Figure 3: Power cable

2.1

COMMUNICATION BETWEEN MAIN BOARD AND POWER BOX

The whole communication runs through the power cable (figure 3). The communication runs in an impulse which means the main board is sending impulses of certain length to the power box. Using those same impulses the relays and transistors in the power box are being switched on and off. With those relays and transistors the power box is steering the blow out motor and the rising motor.

Figure 4: Principle of impulse communication between MB and PB

POWER BOX COMPONENTS

Besides already mentioned components (relays, safety fuses, transistors, led diodes, etc.) the power box consists of many connectors used for the connection of certain roulette’s components. The blows out motor, the rising motor, the transformer are just some of the components connected to the power box. All the important power box components are shown in the figure below.

Figure 5: Demonstration of power box elements

3.1 POWER BOX CONNECTORS 3.1.1

DISTRIBUTION BOX

The distribution box is connected to that connector. Using that connector the power box switches on the contactor in the distribution box and it gets 230 V AC out of the distribution box. The distribution box is connected with two cables: box transformer cable and relay onset cable. Both of them are shown in the figure 6.

SENSOR CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

Sensor circuit is a circuit used to read the ball’s position. It is placed inside the roulette under the wheel. In basis it consists of two parts, the primary and the secondary part. Sensor circuit is the primary part; the transmitter and the receiver of the UV light are in the secondary part. Sensor circuit is shown in the figure below.

Picture 1: Sensor circuit Primary part: In the primary part there are the sensor circuit with two accompanied receivers and transmitters. UV receiving diode is used as a receiver and UV transmitting diode is used as a transmitter. Using those diodes the sensor determines crossbars and zero’s position. Secondary part: In the secondary part there are the transmitting diode and the receiving transistor. Using these two elements the sensor determines the holes in the wheel and the ball’s position.

2.0

SENSOR CIRCUIT FUNCTIONING

Sensor circuit is constantly sending information about the holes, crossbars and zero’s positions to the PC. PC can determine the ball’ position using the holes and crossbars signals. The zero’s signal is used to reset the sensor. That means the sensor controls the crossbar, the hole, the crossbar, the hole, etc. When the wheel turns once, the zero resets the preceding counting and the sensor starts to count all over again.


3


2.1 CROSSBARS PISITION DETERMINATION The crossbars position is controlled using the receiving and the transmitting diode. Each crossbar is attached to the wheel with a screw. Basically the diodes are controlling these screws. To determine the crossbars position the diodes have to be in the same level. For each determined crossbar the sensor sends a signal to the PC.

Picture 2: Crossbar signal T period presents the duration of wheel’s one round. 2.2 HOLES POSITION DETERMINATION Sensor determines the holes position in a similar way that it does with the crossbars. The only difference is that here it uses TSL transistor instead of the receiving diode. Sensor sends the impulse for each hole.

Picture 3: Hole signal


4


2.3 BALL’S POSITION DETERMINATION PC determines the ball’s position using the crossbars and holes signals. The ball is found on the part of the wheel where the hole determining transistor does not send the impulse. PC determines the number that has fallen using the crossbars determination because basically it is counting the number of crossbars on the wheel. 2.4

USE OF ZERO CROSSBAR

The zero is used to reset the holes and crossbars counting. Zero crossbar is a bit thicker in comparison to other crossbars.

3.0

SENSOR SETUP

Because of the essential nature of the sensor to the roulette’s proper function the proper setup of it is required. That means the sensor circuit, the UV diode and the TSL transistor need to be connected properly. The sensor is connected to a special holder under the wheel. Its connection has to be correct- meaning that no crossbar should slide on or touch the sensor while the wheel is turning. UV diode and TSL transistor are used to determine the holes position. That means these two elements need to be in line. TSL transistor and UV diode are set properly if the voltage in the transistor comes between 800 and 1900 mV. Voltage can be checked with sensor tester that you can order from our circuits catalogue. If the setup is correct the sensor sends the signals as shown in the figure below.

Picture 4: Signals that are sent if the sensor is set properly

4.0

SENSOR AND PC COMMUNICATION

As mentioned above the sensor is constantly sending certain parameters (signals) to the PC. These signals are transmitted to the main board, using the SENSOR cable. From the main board to the PC the signals are sent through the COM 2 cable using the controlling channels. PC receives the signals through the COM 2 communicational port.

Picture 5: SENSOR cable

SENSOR CONNECTORS DESCRIPTION

The sensor consists of three connectors. These connectors are shown in the figure below.

Picture 6: Sensor circuit block scheme 5.1 COM The main communication between the sensor and the main board runs through that connector. The communication runs through the SENSOR cable. That cable is shown in the figure 5. 5.2 TSL The TSL transistor is connected to that connector. TSL transistor is used to determine the holes or the ball’s position.

Picture 7: TSL transistor cable 5.3 IR UV transmitting diode is connected to that connector. With the combination of UV diode and TSL transistor the holes or the ball’s positions can be determined. The diode is connected with the IR DIODA cable.

Picture 8: IR DIODA cable 5.4

LED DISPLAYS

The LED indicators are used to control the sensor’s functioning. It enables the service staff to control the sensor’s functioning more precisely. Each sensor consists of at least three led diodes- for each parameter the sensor determines there is one diode available. LED indicators are also duplicated on the main board of the roulette. 5.4.1

LED HOLE

That led diode is showing the proper functioning of the holes counting. LED indicator is switched on by every hole if the sensor functions properly. If the ball is in any hole, LED indicator doesn’t switch on. 5.4.2

LED CROSSBAR

That led diode is showing the proper functioning of the crossbars counting. Led diode is switched on by every crossbar if the sensor functions properly. 5.4.3

LED START

That led diode is showing the proper zero function. Because the zero is thickened the led diode is switched on every time it determines a thick crossbar.

6.0

STATUS SENSOR SETUP AND CONNECTION

Status sensor is a sensor used to determine the starting position of the ball. When the ball is in its starting position the status sensor sends an impulse to the PC which informs the PC that it can start with the game. Status sensor is basically a tube in which there are UV diode (IR diode) and TSL transistor. The proper functioning of the status sensor is determined by the LED status which is placed on the main board. It is connected to the main board with the STATUS cable. That cable is shown in the picture below.

SENSOR TEST PROGRAM TOOL DESCRIPTION

Sensor test program tool is a tool used to check the sensor circuit functioning. The program tool’s start up file is set in the C://Ruleta directory under the name SensorTest.exe. Double clicking the icon opens the working window in which the sensor functioning can be reviewed.

Figure 1: sensor test program tool As seen in the figure above the sensor test program tool is a very useful tool to check the sensor circuit’s proper functioning. Using that tool the entire malfunction at reading the ball, reading the crossbars, etc. can be discovered. Single parameters description: • LOOP TIME Wheel’s one round time (time the wheel needs to make one round) • TIME DIFF The difference between the current and the reference round time (the reference round time is the time the wheel needs to make the first round) • BALL IS ON NUMBER The number on which the ball has currently stopped (in case the ball has been moved to another number the current state needs to be erased or else the sensor will not perceive the change) • NUMBER That is the current number. • COUNTER The number of fields on the wheel (the number of different numbers, there are 37 different numbers on the wheel) • LOOP The number of the wheel’s rounds.


2


1.1 USAGE Sensor test program tool is used as a help to test the sensor circuit’s proper functioning. The preliminary condition of the proper functioning is an exit voltage on the TSL transistor that is high enough (between 800 and 1900 mV). Only after certain preliminary conditions needed for the proper functioning are assured, the sensor circuit’s functioning can be tested with the use of Sensor Test program tool. Sensor circuit’s proper functioning preliminary conditions: • TIME DIFF must not be higher than 10% of LOOP TIME • Each of the 37 numbers must be perceived by the program in the wheel’s one round (COUNTER) • The numbers must not repeat in the wheel’s one round (NUMBER) • The program must perceive the ball on every number (BALL IS ON NUMBER)

SHORT DESCRIPTION

One of Gold Club’s last innovations is an automatic answering machine which is used for trial extension. It is mostly used to repair certain gaming machine’s errors. As you already know the practice till now has been that at each trial whether it was a switch or another one you had to contact the Gold Club customer support technical team. Especially at Saturdays, Sundays and holidays that kind of system very often could have been quite retardatory. By setting the server that kind of problems are automatically over because the server works undisturbedly 24 hours a day, all the year around.

That amount is getting bigger and bigger with every game and is also paid out to the player in case of a winning combination. The system functions in a way where at each game on the roulette or other gaming machine a certain amount of credits is transferred to the jackpot fund. The number of credits designed for the jackpot is shown on the external monitor, so every visitor of the salon is informed of the jackpot price. That number is also shown on every monitor (player position) placed in the roulette. That enables the player with the review about the jackpot fund state.

The first part represents the gaming machine ( in our case that is Gold Club American roulette ) while the second part represents the external computer with the accompanied display ( plasma ) used to show the amount of the jackpot prize. In order to make the system function properly, the single parts need to be connected. The principle of the system’s structure and connection is shown in the figure below. Figure 2: Jackpot system and gaming machine communication The whole jackpot system structure is shown in the figure above. As seen in the figure both of the computers need to be connected to each other. Do that by using the jackpot communication cable. The structure of the cable is shown in the figure number 3. Figure 3: Jackpot communication cable GOLD CLUB CASINO ♣ Kraska cesta 4 ♣ 6210 Sezana ♣ Slovenia ♣ Europe Tel.: +386 5-7311-562 ♣ fax: +386 5-7311-561 www.gold-club.si ♣ e-mail: [email protected] 4 ROULETTE TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION GC STAND ALONE JACKPOT SYSTEM 3.0 JACKPOT SYSTEM AND GAMING MACHINE COMMUNICATION The communication between the systems runs through the jackpot communication cable (figure 3). The communication is a serial one and the RS232 communicational protocol is used. The gaming machine sends to the jackpot system the information about the number of credits designed for the jackpot fund. That information is sent at the end of every active game or when the bets are closed. Also at that time the player gets the refreshed number on his monitor. The example is shown in the figure below. Figure 4: Data block example The whole data block structure can be seen in the figure above. Single Bytes meanings: 1.Byte: hash »#« symbol, it represents the beginning of the block 2 and 3 Byte: represent the data block length- the first three symbols 4.

Byte: CRC the previous bytes value. The communication between the systems is defined in the TransmiterComm.con and ReceiverComm.con files. TransmiterComm.con file is set in the computer inside the roulette in the Ruleta directory. ReceiverComm.con file is set in the jackpot system computer in the directory C:\\JACKPOT GOLD CLUB CASINO ♣ Kraska cesta 4 ♣ 6210 Sezana ♣ Slovenia ♣ Europe Tel.: +386 5-7311-562 ♣ fax: +386 5-7311-561 www.gold-club.si ♣ e-mail: [email protected] 5 ROULETTE TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION GC STAND ALONE JACKPOT SYSTEM TransmiterComm.con and ReceiverComm.con files description The right parameters used for the gaming machine and jackpot system communication are set in these two files. TransmiterComm.con parameters Three parameters need to be set: in which: ID…………...is an identification number (your choice) com_port……is a communication port mark speed………..is a data transfer speed, usually it is 9600Kbit/s Example: <1><9600> TransmiterComm.con file setup can be seen in the example above. Exactly the same is the ReceiverComm.con file setup. ReceiverComm.con parameters These parameters are exactly the same as the one in the TransmiterComm.con file. The only difference is that you have to enter the COM port of the jackpot system computer. 4.0 JACKPOT SYSTEM SETUP As any other system this one also needs proper settings to function correctly. First two files need to be created for the system: ProgresiveSetings.dat and JackPotGameSetings.dat. Both of them are created using the GCJPConfig program tool. 4.1 GCJPConfig PROGRAM TOOL APPLICATION GCJPConfig program tool is used to setup some of the jackpot system’s parameters. Using that program tool two files, in which certain rules of the jackpot prize are determined, are created. GCJPConfig program tool is not set in the roulette. Usually you create ProgresiveSetings.dat and JackPotGameSetings.dat on another computer and just transfer these two files into roulette computer (c:\).

In the second part (JackpotGameSetings) the parameters used in the jackpot game are set. The winning combinations are defined here. The first part’s setting fields description: - Name The name of the file in which certain settings are saved. Default value is ProgresiveSetings. The name on principle should not be changed. - Progresive Type The way of adding the credits to the jackpot prize. There are two ways: - Simple constant progresive - Simple proportional progresive In case you choose the first way, a certain amount of credits (always the same amount) will be added to the jackpot fund at each game. If you select the second way the amount of credits GOLD CLUB CASINO ♣ Kraska cesta 4 ♣ 6210 Sezana ♣ Slovenia ♣ Europe Tel.: +386 5-7311-562 ♣ fax: +386 5-7311-561 www.gold-club.si ♣ e-mail: [email protected] 7 ROULETTE TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION GC STAND ALONE JACKPOT SYSTEM will also be added to the jackpot fund, only the amount will depend on the number of bets. In fact the amount added is only a certain percentage of the bets. In case none of the players is making any bets the jackpot prize is not getting any bigger. - Round Step [pct or points] The number of points (Simple constant progresive) or the percentage (Simple proportional progresive) of bets added to the jackpot fund at every game played on the roulette. In case you select proportional progressive in the ProgresiveType Simple, a certain percentage will be added to the jackpot fund at the end of each game. That percentage depends on the bets. Example: Bet 200 credits on the roulette and enter the value 20 in Round step. In case the ProgresiveType is in percentage the 20 % of 200 credits will be added to the jackpot fund. It also depends on the points to credits transformation. - Points for 1 credit The number of points equalled to one credit. It is used when transforming credits into points. - Low Bound[points] Minimum jackpot fund value in points. - Up Bound [points] Maximum jackpot fund value. The second part’s setting fields description: - Name The name of the file used to save certain jackpot game settings. Default value is JackPotGameSetings. The name on principle should not be changed. - Number of slots The length of the sequence that need to be hit for the jackpot prize. - Level of wins These levels are setup in a way where single levels and the jackpot percentage is entered into the field. The values are separated by semicolon. Example: 1;70 2;10 That setting means that on the first level (sequence of three winning numbers is hit) the player will win 70% of the whole jackpot fund, on the second level (sequence of two winning numbers is hit) the player will win 10% of the fund, etc The levels are added by entering the level first, then the percentage of the prize and then clicking ADD. The levels can be removed by selecting the certain level and clicking REMOVE.

When all of the parameters are entered, click OK and the tool will automatically create both files (ProgresiveSetings and JackPotGameSetings). 4.2 JACKPOT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION ON THE ROULETTE When the setting files have been set using the GCJPConfig program tool, these files need to be transmitted to the gaming machine. But before that some of the files need to be renamed and those are: ProgresiveSetings.dat file is renamed to ProgresivaConfig.dat file JackpotGameSetings.dat file is renamed to JPGConfiguration.dat file Now both of the files are ready to be transmitted to the gaming machine. Besides the files already mentioned, the TransmiterComm.con file needs to be transmitted too. All three files are set into the Ruleta directory of the gaming machine. Figure 6: Files needed for the GCJPS proper functioning Some of the parameters also need to be set in the setup base. Only authorised GC costumer support staff is competent to do that. All information regarding the settings in the setup database is available on the email: [email protected]. 4.3 JACKPOT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION ON EXTERNAL PC Beside the jackpot system setup on the roulette some of the parameters need to be set also on the external computer or the computer on which the jackpot display is connected.

The information is send using the wavecom modem in a form of an SMS. The roulette can send different type of information to its owner and that are: - daily reports pay in and pay out reports possible errors reports With the help of that system the roulette’s owner has a complete insight of the roulette’s state. In fact he or she can control the machine 24 hours a day every day in a year. The roulette has to be positioned in a place where there is a fairly strong GSM signal. The GSM modem is shown in the figure below. Figure 1: GSM modem demonstration 2.0 GSM MODEM SETUP GSM system is placed inside the roulette. To function properly it needs a +12 V direct current. Physical setup is shown in the figure 1. Beside the physical connection the file MOBILE.exe needs to be set in the RULETA directory. That file can be copied from any mobile media (CD, floppy, USB flash disc, etc.) GOLD CLUB CASINO ♣ Kraska cesta 4 ♣ 6210 Sezana ♣ Slovenia ♣ Europe Tel.: +386 5-7311-562 ♣ fax: +386 5-7311-561 www.gold-club.si ♣ e-mail: [email protected] 3 ROULETTE TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION WAVECOM SYSTEM VER.: 2.0.0.7 2.1 WAVECOM MODEM INITIATION When modem is physically connected it also needs to be initiated. Use GC terminal emulator program tool to do that. Some of the parameters need to be check before the initiation: - make sure that the SIM card is registered with Voice, SMS, Data or Fax activated to be able to use the respective functions - ensure the SIM card is not Security Locked, if it is locked, remove it with the mobile phone - insert the SIM card with the card holder and power on. The light will starts to blink intermittently after few seconds. The modem is ready to be communicating. When the conditions mentioned above are fulfilled open the GC terminal emulator program tool. First select the COM port on which the wavecom modem is connected. Set the data transfer speed to 9600 Kbit/s and press ALT+X so the green light is switched on. Initiate with the help of the AT commands: - input AT+Z and press enter - input AT+IPR=9600 and press enter - input AT+CSAS and press enter - input AT&W and press enter In case the wavecom modem is not responding the data transfer speed needs to be changed to 9600 Kbit/s in the Hyper terminal. 3.0 GSM SYSTEM AND PC COMMUNICATION That communication is a serial one and it uses the RS 232 protocol. In fact it runs using the AT commands. PC is constantly checking out the parameters set by the roulette’s owner in the Mobile.exe window (figure 3). When certain conditions are fulfilled the wavecom modem sends an SMS. The SMS base is set in advance and it doesn’t change while some of the variables contained in a single SMS can change (daily finances review, pay in or pay out data, errors, etc.). For each SMS that has been sent the PC receives a confirmation from the wavecom modem. The communication runs through the GSM communicational cable shown in the figure below.

It is connected on LPT 1 PC port. Wibu key allow us to protect different products in our PC and we can also control the number of licence of different programs. The example of Wibu key is shown on the picture below. Picture 1: Wibu key The most important thing of that key is that every key has its own ID number. ID number of the key is written on it’s back side. The number is different for every key. The advantage of the Wibu key is that program tolls are not dependent of the gamming machine. Another advantage is that we can use all of our program tolls on several gamming machines. Only requirement is that all the keys are programmed in the same number. The number of the Wibu key is written in the control panel.

The ID is written on the every key. If the client has lost the ID number, he can check it on the control panel. Description of the right part of the window In the right part of the window there are two numbers written in the first two rows. The number in the first row is the ID number of the program tool. The other number is the ID of the licence. These two numbers have two parts: The left part of the number (2997) is the code of the producer, but the right part of the number (250 and 255) is the code of the program or of the licence.
