3-1 PCB start-up check (self test)
When this kit has been set up, turn ON the machine’s power switch. The game Printed Circuit
Boards (PCB) will be automatically checked for its performance. The test results will be displayed
on the screen. For a “WindyIITM”(JVS-compatible general-purpose) machine in use, the JAMMA
VIDEO Standard (JVS) information appears on the screen.
If any abnormality is detected
•“BAD”appears on the screen, and the checking is repeated.
If “BAD”appears on the “FLASH ROM CHECK”screen, follow the instruction on the screen
and press the machine’s test switch or the PCB unit test switch. The flash ROM will be
checked again. In this case, it will take about 15 minutes to finish the checking.
“HARDWARE ERROR SECURITY-CASSETTE ERROR”appears on the screen, check to
see if the security cassette is tight in position in the PCB unit. This PCB unit can only be used
by inserting the accompanying security cassette. The security cassette of any other game
does not work to run this PCB.
When the machine has been installed or the PCB unit has been repaired or replaced, hold
down the machine’s test switch or the PCB unit test switch and turn ON the machine’s power
switch. The settings will be back to the factory ones.
Hold down the test switch until “TEST SWITCH IS STILL ON. PLEASE RELEASE IT”shows
up on the screen. (The settings in manual test mode will be back to the factory ones.)
If any indication other than above shows up or the machine does not work, immediately turn
OFF the machine’s power switch, unplug the power cord from the receptacle and contact your
nearest dealer.
•Before use, be sure to check the performance of the PCB.
•If an abnormality persists or the machine does not operate properly, immediately turn
OFF the machine’s power switch, unplug the power cord from the receptacle and
contact your nearest dealer.
