MEGATOUCH ION FUSION OWNER’S MANUAL PM0463-25 Rev A
Site Preparation
In determining the location for your Mega-
touch Ion video game, consideration must
be given to a suitable, grounded electrical
outlet. Since the game is a computerized
device, it should have a separate circuit, if
at all possible. If a separate circuit is not
available, care should be taken to provide a
clean and constant voltage. As a basic
guideline, never connect the unit to a circuit
that also supplies power to freezers, cool-
ers or other high power consuming and elec-
trical noise generating equipment. Place the
game in a location where nothing will inter-
ferewith proper ventilation. Thegameshould
not be exposed to any dripping or splashing
liquids. Objects filled with liquid should not
be placed on the unit.
The upright model should be located on a
sturdy, level surface. The bottom of the
cabinet has two leg levellers on the back to
make any necessary adjustments. When
the game is properly adjusted, it should re-
main stable. The game is designed to be
secured to a wall. Locate the supplied hard-
ware inside the coin box and follow the in-
structions below to secure the game to the
wall.
1. Locate a wall stud to mount the game.
2. Measure 46" from the floor on the
mounting stud and drill a hole to install
the hardware. Installation into a
wooden stud requires a 2" deep x 1/4"
hole. For masonry walls drill a 1 1/4"
deep x 1/2" hole. For steel stud or hol-
low walls drill an 11/16" hole.
3. For wooden stud installation, screw the
lag eyebolt into the hole (see Figure A).
For masonry wall, insert the lag shield
into the hole and then insert and tighten
themachineeyebolt (see Figure B). For
steel stud or hollow walls, insert the
toggle bolt into the hole and then insert
the machine eyebolt, nut and washer
and tighten (see Figure C).
4. Route the lanyard through the eye bolt
and attach it to the snap spring as
shown in Figure D. Then, attach the
snap spring to the handle on the back
of the game.

Setting up your Megatouch Game
1. After removing the game from the car-
ton, attach the power cord to the back
of the game near the ON/OFF switch.
Plug the game into a standard AC out-
let.
2. Turn the power switch at the back of
the game to ON and wait for it to go
through its boot-up sequence. At the
completion of the boot-up sequence,
the game will display the Player Menu.
3. The machine has been preset at the
factory and therefore should not need
to be adjusted, however it is recom-
mended that the screen be calibrated
(see Touchscreen Calibration) and
the coin or bill acceptor(s) be tested.
4. There are many custom settings avail-
able for the game. To customize the
settings, follow the instructions begin-
ning with the Main Menu section in this
manual.

Game Description
The Megatouch Fusion comes housed in an
uprightcabinet. Thismodel has 3 key-locked
compartments: the main bezel door, the rear
door and the coin/bill door. It is equipped
with a coin mech and/or bill stacker. Op-
tional bill acceptors are also available. This
model also has couplers installed in the rear
of the game. These are used for future
hardware upgrades which include linking
and modem capabilities. Each game comes
equipped with a wireless USB adapter
which can be used to wirelessly link two
Ion games together. With the addition of a
wireless router, up to four games can be
linked and the game(s) can also connect to
the Internet. The Linksys 802.11G router is
recommended. For more information, see
Connection Wizard.
The rear compartment of the Fusion allows
access to storage space for add-on acces-
sories.
CPU Section
The CPU section is accessible by opening
the front bezel. The bezel houses the LCD
monitorandthe CPU section houses anelec-
tronics box which contains the motherboard,
I/O board, control board, power supply, hard
drive, and the main harness. There is exter-
nal access to the centronics connector and
the counter on the outside of the electronics
box. The SETUP and CALIBRATE buttons
as well as the security key are located on
the control board attached to the front of the
electronics box. Pressing the SETUP button
will bring you to the Main Menu Screen.
Coin Mech/Bill Acceptor Cash Box
The coin mech and/or bill acceptor are ac-
cessible by opening the front bezel of the
cabinet (see Figure 32 for locations). The
metal cash box door is key-locked for secu-
rity purposes.
IfyourgamehasaSmileybillacceptor, there
is a lanyard secured to the inside of the

on the left wall of the cabinet when you
want to secure the door in the open posi-
tion. See Figure 32 to locate the clip.

the cross for approximately 2 seconds
for the calibration to be recognized.
•Touch the center of the second cross
that appears on the screen.
•Once the second cross is touched and
released, another cross will appear on
the screen. To test the calibration of
the screen, touch the cross with your

MEGATOUCH ION FUSION OWNER’S MANUAL PM0463-25 Rev A
•The game will then prompt you to cali-
brate the joystick. First, select the joy-
stick model on your game by touching
it. Then move the joystick as far left as
it will go, release the joystick, and press
one of the buttons on the joystick.
NOTE: The joystick may not appear to
be functioning correctly during cali-
bration, but it is important that you
continue the calibration steps. After
calibration has been completed, it will
function properly.
•Move the joystick as far right as it will
go, release the joystick, and then press
one of the joystick buttons.
•Move the joystick as far up as it will go,
releasethejoystick,andthenpressone
of the joystick buttons.
•Move the joystick as far down as it will
go, then release the joystick and press
one of the joystick buttons.
•Then, without touching the joystick,
press one of the buttons on the joy-
stick to complete calibration.
•Touch the EXIT button.
Monitor Adjustment Procedure
For adjusting the settings on our monitors,
we suggest following the procedures de-
scribed below. The vertical/horizontal con-
trols and brightness/contrast controls are
locatedon themonitorcontrol board,attached
to the front of the electronics box.
Unlock and open the bezel so the control
board is accessible while viewing the moni-
tor. Pressing the button labeled Menu on
the control board will show the on-screen
display on the monitor. Adjust the monitor
controls until the screens look as suggested
in the following steps. When finished, close
and lock the bezel.
1. Set the game to the Checkerz game
screen.
2. Adjust the vertical and horizontal size
and vertical and horizontal position to
make sure that the game screen fills
the monitor screen and that the game
screen is centered.
3. Adjust the brightness and contrast con-
trols until the top sets of checkers are
a rich red and the bottom set are a dark
gray. The feet on the “Checkerz”
character should be white. (Adjusting
the brightness and contrast can also
correct for a lack of sharpness.)
NOTE: If you are experiencing an issue
where your screen seems to be slightly
shifted, repeat the screen calibration
process, pressing “Auto” on the OSD
board when each new calibration
screen appears BEFORE you calibrate
the screen for that resolution.
General Circuit Board Handling
Information
Before handling any boards, observe the
following procedures:
•Prevent Electro-Static Discharge by:
1. Storingthe boards in theanti-static
bags in which they are shipped.
2. Removing any static charge from
your body before handling the
boards.
3. Using a ground strap when han-
dling the boards.
•When plugging in connectors to the
board, make sure the connector is
inserted straight onto the header and
that the connector covers all header
pins.

PM0463-25 RevA MEGATOUCH ION FUSION OWNER’S MANUAL
•Do not connect any peripheral device
to the board, if the power is still
connected to the peripheral or if power
is already applied to the board.
CAUTION: Be extremely careful when re-
placing the lithium battery on the mother-
board. There is a danger of explosion if the
battery on the motherboard is incorrectly
replaced. Only replace the battery with the
same type recommended by the manufac-
turer. Dispose of used batteries according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Replacing the Marquee
To replace the marquee, first remove the 6
thumbnuts fastening the plastic bezel to the
game and remove the plastic bezel. Then,
remove the 6 nuts and washers securing
the plexiglass sign holder to the bezel, re-
move the plexiglass and replace the sign.
Cleaning the Cabinet
•The cabinet should be cleaned with a
damp cloth and mild detergent. Always
apply the cleaner to the cloth and not
directly on the game. Liquids could
enterthe cabinet and damage electron-
ics inside.
Cleaning the Joystick
•The joystick should be cleaned with a
damp cloth and mild detergent. Always
apply the cleaner to the cloth and not
directly on the game. Liquids could
enter the housing and damage elec-
tronics inside.
Cleaning the Touchscreen Monitor
•The touchscreen glass should be
cleaned with a damp cloth and isopro-
pyl alcohol or a non-ammonia cleanser.
Do not use any abrasive or vinegar-
based cleansers, as they will damage
the touchscreen glass.
NOTE: DO NOT USE ANY ABRASIVE
SOLVENTS, ACID OR VINEGAR-BASED
CLEANSERS ON THE MONITOR OR
SIDE DECALS. OVER TIME, SUCH
CLEANSERS COULD HARM THE
TOUCHSCREEN AND ERASE THE DE-
CALS. BE CAREFUL NOT TO USE COM-
MERCIAL CLEANERS CONTAINING
ANY OF THESE SUBSTANCES.
Cleaning the Fans and Vents
•The fans and vents should be cleaned
of any dust on a regular basis to en-
sure proper ventilation of the game.
•To ensure proper operation of the
game, it is important that all fans are
operating correctly and that the airflow
is unobstructed. Make sure nothing is
placed inside the cabinet or next to the
fan vents that would inhibit the flow of
air. Also, if any fans are not operating,
it is important that they be replaced.
Watchdog Timer
This game has been equipped with a fea-
ture that allows it to automatically reboot if it
encounters a problem. When the watchdog
timer is enabled, it will reboot the machine
within 5 minutes after a failure, allowing the
game to automatically reset itself if a prob-
lem arises without needing a technician
present. If you want to disable the watch-
dog timer, set DIP switch 3 on the I/O board
to the open position and reboot the game.

Coin-InMenu
FIGURE3-COIN-INMENU
Game cost can be controlled two ways: by
changing the number of credits required to
play a game, or by changing the cost of a
credit. The Coin-In Menu allows you to ad-
just the cost of a credit, as well as provide a
way to give players “bonus” credits for de-
positing a higher amount of money. On the
Cash-In and Credits Table, the “-” and “+”
buttons are used to change the number of
credits, while the corresponding price value
for the credits is entered by pressing the
Edit button in that row.
NOTE: The “Edit” button will bring
up a numbered keypad, limited to 2
decimal places. The Cash-In and
Credits Table is ordered, so values
must be set in increasing increments
from top to bottom of the screen. The
final two values, however, can be
entered as “0”, which is the equivalent
of N/A. As each row on the table is
filled in, the “Edit” button will appear
for the subsequent row below it.
Similarto theCash-Inand CreditsTable, when
programming the Channels on the Coin-In
Menu, Channel 1 is set for the lowest value
coin, Channel 2 for the next highest value,
etc. The meter pulse, which is the highest
common divisor of all the monetary values
of the Channels, is independent of the cred-
its and only tracks the smallest unit of cur-
rency. Operators can use this number to
determine the amount of money earned on a
game by multiplying the meter pulse by the
reading on the hard meter.
NOTE: Changing the values of the
Channels on the Coin-In Menu may
change the meter pulse. Therefore, a
Cash Settlement Collection should be
performed prior to adjusting the Chan-
nels in order to accurately reflect coin
drop based on the hard meter reading.
Adjusting the Channels will not affect
the Cash-In and Credits Table, which
performs a separate function on the
Coin-In Menu.
To give customers bonus credits for insert-
ing larger denominations, manually adjust
the credits earned per dollar value on the
Credit and Values Table. Coins may be de-
posited in any combination of values, and
the game will automatically register the high-
est number of credits for the total amount of
coins deposited. Once a game is played,
any remaining fractional credits are saved
and applied to the next purchase.
NOTE: It is recommended that if you
are enabling bonus credits, that the
game be set to display in credits and
not money. If the game is set to display
in money, all money values will be
based on the value of 1 credit, which is
typically the most expensive credit.
The type of currency registered can be ad-
justed by touching the Change Currency
button at the bottom right-hand corner of the
Coin-In Menu. Touching the Default Set-
tings button just below it will return the Coin-
In Menu to its factory settings. This setting
can be adjusted (as described previously),
but will return if the game memory is cleared.

Coinless Coin Op Menu
When enabled via the Options button on
the Credits/Pricing Menu, the Coinless Coin
Op feature allows the operator to charge
on a per-game or per-time basis without
players inserting money into the game. The
total amount owed after gameplay is tallied
by the machine and collected by the location
owner. Location owners reset the game
with a PIN after collection.
NOTE: If you have set a tax fee on the
Cash Settlement Screens, Coinless Coin
Op Mode play will be taxed at the set
rate. If you want to set the tax
percentage at a different rate for
Coinless Coin Op mode and regular
mode, you should perform a Cash
Settlement Collection, change the tax
rate and then switch modes.
Certain features will not be available in
Coinless Coin Op Mode, such as MegaNet
content, Merit Money, Promo Credits, Free
Credits, credit card purchases,
TouchTunes®musicandAMI jukeboxmusic.
Pricing for these features can only be
displayed in currency values, not credits.
Setting the PIN
Touch the Set PIN button on the Coinless
Coin Op Menu to program the PIN. The
number can be from 1 to 5 digits.
NOTE: The Coinless Coin Op PIN can
also be set from the Player Menu.
Touch the Options button, enter the 6
Star PIN, and touch the CCO Set PIN
button.
Disabling the Money Inputs
It is recommended that the money inputs be
disabled when the game is in Coinless Coin
Op mode. Unplug the power and signal
harness connected to the bill/note acceptor
and the harness connected to the coin
mech (if applicable) to disable the inputs.

To Enter This Screen, Touch
“Pay Per Time” on the Credits Menu
Per-Game Mode
When players choose this mode, a running
total of the amount owed is maintained and
displayed in the CREDITS box on the
screen. The total is tabulated after each
game or function. The location owner then
collects the total amount owed at the end
of gameplay. If there is no activity for 10
minutes, the machine will disable and the
amount owed by the player will display on
screen. No further gameplay can occur
until the machine is reset by a location
employee using the PIN.
Time Mode
The price per 15-minute time block will be
displayed before players choose this
mode. During gameplay, the time remaining
and amount owed by the player will be
displayed on screen. When the time block
runs out, players can purchase additional
time. Otherwise, the machine will disable
and the amount owed by the player will
display on screen. No further gameplay
can occur until the machine is reset using
the PIN. If the player leaves the game
before the purchased time block has ended,
the game can be reset using the PIN.
Resetting or Freezing the Game
The game can be reset at any time using
the pre-programmed PIN. Once gameplay
totals have been tallied by the machine, the
attendant can also choose to freeze the
game to prevent more activity until the
transaction is complete. The Reset or
Freeze buttons are accessible through the
Options button on the Player Menu after
touching the Coinless Coin Op button. An
alarm will begin to sound after 3 failed
attempts to enter the valid number when
entering the PIN to reset the game. The
alarm will terminate when the machine is
rebooted, the operator SETUP button is
pressed, or the correct PIN is entered.
Rental Mode
When enabled via the Options button on
the Credits/Pricing Menu, Rental Mode
allows players to purchase a block of time
and use it to play as many games as they
want.
To set the value of a credit in Rental Mode,
select Pay Per Time from the Credits
Menu. Touch the arrows on either side of
the time interval to adjust the number of
minutes of play given for each credit. To
disable any row, set the value to zero.
Certain features will not be available in
Rental Mode, such as MegaNet, Merit
Money, credit card purchases, Promo
Credits, and Free Credits. Rental mode is
also unavailable with linked games.
NOTE: It is recommended that you
clear the books when toggling Rental
Mode on and off in order to ensure
accurate bookkeeping.
Freeplay Mode
Turn this option on to enable free game play,
which can be used for promotions and
demonstrations. Additionally, Megatouch
systems with credit card functionality will
enterCreditCardDemoMode when freeplay
is enabled. This can be used to show how
the credit card feature works without
actually charging a credit card.
