MEGATOUCH FIREFLY OWNER’S MANUAL PM0773-011
The Megatouch FireFly
Welcometo the Megatouch FireFly – the first portable Megatouch system. The FireFly comes
complete with its own Docking Station, which will house and charge the FireFly. This
manual contains all the information you need to set up and configure your system to best
fit the needs of your customers.
!! IMPORTANT !!
Included in this shipment is a FireFly Quick Set Up Guide. Your
FireFly will not function until you complete the steps on this sheet.
Please do so before physically setting up your FireFly system.
Before You Begin
Scouting the Location
Before you begin your FireFly installation, you should determine the best place in the location
fortheFireFly’sDocking Station.Itshouldbe located near a suitable,grounded electricaloutlet,
and since the game is a computerized device, it should have a separate circuit (if at all pos-
sible).Ifaseparatecircuit is not available, care should be takentoprovideaclean and constant
voltageto the system.Asabasic guideline, never connect theunitto a circuit that alsosupplies
powerto freezers,coolers,or otherhigh-power-consumingand electrical-noise-generatingequip-
ment.Placethegamewherenothingwillinterferewithproperventilation.Thegameshouldalso
not be exposed to any dripping or splashing liquids.

Wireless Broadband IS Required
The FireFly is the first credit-card-only Megatouch system. This means that the system must
be connected to a broadband Internet connection in order to function. Additionally, since the
FireFlyis portable, this broadbandconnection must be wireless.
Eachgamecomesequippedwith a built-in wireless capability that will be used toconnecttothe
Internet with the use of a wireless router in the location. The Linksys 802.11G router is recom-
mendedforthis purpose. How to configureyour FireFly’s network settings are discussedin the
Connection Wizard section later in this manual.
IMPORTANT NOTEABOUT CREDIT CARD MEGATOUCH SYSTEMS
If a Megatouch unit that accepts credit cards is moved between the U.S. and Canada, Cus-
tomer Service must be notified 2 business days before activating the credit card feature in the
newcountry.FailuretonotifyCustomerServicewillputtheoperatorinviolationofcardprocess-
ingregulations,forwhich the operator assumes full responsibility.Additionally,playerswho pay
bycredit card in the new country may be surprised with currency exchange fees, which will likely
leadthemto call their credit cardcompanies, dispute the charge, and obtaina charge reversal.
The net result will be a credit card payment refund to the players, which will hurt revenue (and
mayupsetsome players).
Setting Up Your FireFly
Follow these five steps to get your FireFly up and running:
1. Complete the steps on the FireFly Quick Set Up Guide.
2. Secure the Docking Station in the Location.
(See “Securing the Docking Station”.)
3. Power Up the FireFly.
(See “Docking Station and FireFly Power”.)
4. Set Your Operator PIN.
(See “Setting Your Operator PIN”.)

MEGATOUCH FIREFLY OWNER’S MANUAL PM0773-01
The Docking Station
Each FireFly comes with its own Docking Station (or Dock). This is where the FireFly should
rest when it’s not in use, as the Docking Station is the only way to charge the FireFly’s battery
(a charged battery is essential for keeping the FireFly mobile). If the battery charge is below a
certain level, players will not be able to remove it from the Dock.Additionally, if the FireFly is in
the Docking Station, but the Docking Station has no power, you will not be able to remove the
FireFly from the Dock until power is restored (unless you use your key to physically unlock the
DockingStation).
Securing the Docking Station
While the FireFly itself is fully portable, its Docking Station really shouldn’t be. Therefore, the
DockingStationshouldbesecuredsomewhereinyourlocation.There are four differentwaysto
do this.
IMPORTANT: BE SURE THAT THE DOCKING STATION IS NOT GETTING POWER
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SECURE IT.
THE FIRST WAY TO SECURE THE DOCKING STATION iswithacable or chain connected to
somethingsolid in the location. This cable/chain canthen be fastened to the U-bolt onthe rear
of the Docking Station (see Figure B).

THE SECOND WAYTO SECURE THE DOCKING STATION is to use the provided template as
a guide to drill holes into a shelf or countertop; then use screws and washers to secure the
Docking Station from underneath. To do so, please see the following instructions:
NOTE: Use this method of securing the Docking Station ONLY if you don’t want it to turn or
rotate in place. Following these instructions will lock your Docking Station in a fixed position.
IMPORTANT: In order to secure the Docking Station in this manner, you will need to buy
three M10pan headscrews with flatwashers to fitthese screws. The screws willneed to be
1/4-inchlonger than the thickness of your mounting surface. For example, if your surface
is 2 inches thick, you will need to get 2¼-inch screws to properly secure the Dock.
1. Find a good spot to secure the Docking Station. It may be best to place the FireFly in the
DockingStation andput the unit in placetemporarily (this will help injudging proper spac-
ing and help you to spot any needed adjustments before drilling holes).
2. After you’ve found a suitable location, move the Docking Station and replace it with the
providedtemplate. Use a drill bit slightly thicker than the shaft of the M10 pan head screws,
anddrill through the surface whereindicated on the template.
3. Fit the Docking Station over the 3 drill holes so that the screw holes on the bottom of the
Docking Station are directly over the drill holes in the mounting surface (see Figure B).
4. Placethe washers on thescrews you purchased and screwthem through the holes inthe
underside of the countertop and into the bottom of the Docking Station.
THE THIRD WAY TO SECURE THE DOCKING STATION is used if you wish to secure the
Docking Station to a surface, but you also want it to be able to spin or swivel in place. This is
donewith an optional kitthat’savailable throughyourdistributor(partnumber:KSV-113-005-01).
Thiskitcomeswithamountingplatethathasa threaded metal stud attached to the bottom. The
mounting plate is secured to the Docking Station with 3 screws, and the metal stud goes
through a drilled hole in the surface, where it’s bolted from underneath. More detailed instruc-
tions are included with the kit.
THE FOURTH WAY TO SECURE THE DOCKING STATION iswith theoptionalFireFly stand,
which is available through your distributor (part number: KSV-113-006-01). This stand can be
used to securely hold up to three Docking Stations.

providedcoverplate with the two screws you removed, then plug the power cord into a standard
outlet. This powers the Dock.
IMPORTANT: Since the only way the FireFly can be charged is through a powered
Docking Station, it is vital that power to the Docking Station is consistently maintained.
Powering On the FireFly
TheFireFly can be powered onby doing either of thefollowing:
•Placing it in a powered Docking Station.
•Insertingapaper clip (or something similar) into thepinholeon the rear of the system(see
Figure C). The paper clip may need to be held in place for about 10 seconds. Once the
FireFly begins its boot-up sequence, simply remove the paper clip.
NOTE:If the FireFly is poweredonwhilesittingina Dock with no power,youwill receive an error.
Toremove this error, simplyrestore power to the Dockand reboot the FireFly ifnecessary (see
“RebootingtheFireFly”).
Powering Off the FireFly
TheFireFly can be powered offby doing any of thefollowing:
•Placing it in a Docking Station that is NOT connected to a power source, or cutting the
power to the Docking Station while the FireFly is seated in it.
NOTE: The FireFly must be on the Player Menu or in idle mode for the above to work.
•Insertingapaper clip (or something similar) into thepinholeon the rear of the system(see
FigureC). The paper clip may need to be held in place for about10secondsinorderforthe

the power button again to reboot the FireFly.
The LED Indicator
TheLEDindicator on the Docking Station(seeFigureA)will notbelit until the Dock is receiving
powerAND the FireFly is seated init. When a FireFlyis seated in apoweredDock, the LED on
theDocking Stationwill be green.Agreen LEDalso means that the FireFly is charging (even if
the FireFly itself is off while in the Docking Station).
IMPORTANT: If the FireFly is seated in a Docking Station and the LED is
not lit (green light), this means that the Dock is not receiving power. Restore power to
the Dock to charge the FireFly.
USB Port
Thereis a USB port on the rearoftheDockingStationlocated behind the cover plate (seeFigure
C). This will be used for updates and for accessing the DIP switch functionality of your FireFly
(see “DIP Switch Functionality”later in this manual formore details). It is highly recommended
thatthiscoverplatebein place whenever the Docking Station is unsupervised.Thiswillprevent
non-authorizedUSBaccess.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT REMOVE THE FIREFLY FROM THE DOCKING STATION WHILEA
USB DEVICE IS PLUGGED IN.

The Operator PIN
After the Docking Station has been secured and connected, place the FireFly in the Docking
Station and the FireFly will power on. When the FireFly boots up for the first time, you’ll be
prompted to set an Operator PIN and to set up your network connection.
Setting Your Operator PIN
Upon the FireFly’s initial boot, you’ll be prompted to set an Operator PIN. This PIN can be a
minimumof4 digits, a maximum of 6digits,and cannot match any of the otherPINsused in the
system (e.g. 6 Star PIN, Merit Money PIN).
NOTE:On thisinitial bootup screenthere willalso bea Test Diagnostics button.This is used
solely in the production of the game and should not be touched by the operator.
Your unique Operator PIN is vital to the functioning of your FireFly. Firstly, this PIN is used to
accessOperator Setup, which isa menu where youcan customize all ofthe FireFly’s settings.
To enterOperatorSetupbyusingyourOperatorPIN,youwill need to enter this PIN on the 6 Star
Screen (please see the section “6 Star Screen” for more details).
Your Operator PIN is also used for security purposes, so it is highly important that the PIN is a
unique code known only to you.
How Your Operator PIN Will Be Used for Security Purposes:
IfyourFireFlyhasgonethroughafull-reset boot (such as after a software install, or a DIP switch
system clear), your Operator PIN will need to be entered or the FireFly will not function. If the
OperatorPINisincorrectlyentered10timesinarow,the FireFly will enter a non-functional state
where the machine will need to be rebooted. After this reboot, you’ll still need to enter your
Operator PIN in order for the system to function.
NOTE: A normal boot up of the system will not prompt for the Operator PIN.
Forgot Your Operator PIN?
If you’ve forgotten your Operator PIN for any FireFly game, here’s what to do to remedy the
situation:
Youcan first goto your Operator Web Site.The FireFly’sOperator PIN canbeseen by going to
the Machines tab, then by clicking on View.
If for any reason you cannot get to your Operator Web Site, go to the 6 Star Screen (see the
section“6StarScreen”for further details) and enter thecode“111222”.Afteryoudo this, a code
willappear on the screen withamessageforyou to contactAMI Customer Service at 1-800-445-
9353. When you call Customer Service, you’ll be asked to verify some personal information. If
everything checks out, you’ll then be given a temporary PIN so that you can access Operator
Setupand reset your Operator PIN.
NOTE: After you enter the 111222 code, you will only have an hour to contact Customer
Service before the on-screen code expires.
