Site Preparation
In determining the location for your
Megatouch Ion™ video game, consideration
must be given to a suitable, grounded elec-
tricaloutlet. The outlet shall beinstallednear
the equipment and shall be easily acces-
sible. 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. Thegame should
not be exposed to any dripping or splashing
liquids. Objects filled with liquid should not
be placed on the unit.
NOTE: The EVO Wallette is not designed
to function in an ambient temperature
in excess of 95ºF or 35ºC.
Game Description
The Megatouch EVO Wallette model has 2
key-locked compartments: the CPU section
door and the cash door. It comes equipped
with a coin mech and/or bill acceptor. 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 by simply turning the
games on. 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 802.11B router is recom-
mended. For more information, see Wire-
less Setup. There is also a rubber grom-
met included in the plastic bag with the keys.
This must be installed in the hole in the back
plate (see Figure 3) if you are running the
power cord through the hole (i.e. if the game
is being flush mounted or mounted using the
Mega-Bracket). To install, route the power
cord through the grommet and then secure
the grommet on the hole in the plate.
The EVO Wallette also has an additional
mountingkitfor fastening the gameto a table
or bar top. Contact your distributor to pur-
chase this additional kit.
CPU Section
The CPU section is accessible from the front
of the game. The CPU section houses the
LCDmonitor, motherboard,I/O board, power
supply, hard drive, and the main harness.
Located on the control board (found inside
the CPU section near the hinge of the CPU
section door) are two internal switches,
SETUP and CALIBRATE (see Figure 1).
Pressing the SETUP button will bring you to
the Megatouch Setup Screen. See the Gen-
eral Care and Maintenance section for
calibration instructions.
Cash Door
The coin mech/coin box/bill acceptor are ac-
cessible from the rear of the game. The
cash access section is key-locked for se-
curity purposes. See Figure 2.

access the back plate from the inside,
then level the game before tightening
the screw.
5. Continue fasteningthegame to the wall
with at least 6 more screws through
selected mounting holes (.250”
diameter), spacing them as evenly as
possible.
Framed drywall surfaces only: If
you are mounting the center of the
gameto a wallstud, use the6 remaining
holes down the center of the back plate
to fasten the game. If you are
mounting one side of the game to a
wall stud, use wall anchors when
fastening the other side.
6. Proceed with Setting up your
Megatouch Game.
NOTE: The wall must not be a structural, or load-bearing wall. Follow all
appropriate precautions while performing this installation.
To mount the Wallette on a wall, follow the instructions below.
NOTE: The Wallette can be mounted on either a framed drywall surface using a
wall stud, or on a solid wall surface. Use hardware suitable for supporting
200 lbs. or greater. Failure to properly support the game could result in per-
sonal injury or damage to the unit. Check with local building and safety codes
prior to installation.

scribed below. The vertical/horizontal con-
trols and brightness/contrast controls are
located on the control board, inside the CPU
section near the hinge of the door. Pressing
thebutton labeled Menu onthecontrol board
will show the on-screen display on the moni-
tor. Use the Left and Right buttons to move

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.)
General Circuit Board Handling
Information
Before handling any boards, observe the
following procedures:
•Prevent Electro-Static Discharge by:
1. Storing the boards in the anti-
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
handling 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.
•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.

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
enterthecabinetand damage electron-
ics 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 and grime on a regular
basis to ensure 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 2 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 watchdog timer,
set DIP switch 3 on the I/O board to the open
position and reboot the game.

Coin-In
NOTE: The Coin-In Menu instructions on the current page apply to select markets
only. For typical markets, the appropriate guidelines for operation will be
found on the following page.
To Enter The “Coin-In” Screen, Touch “Coin-In” on the Credits Menu
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 adjust the cost
of a credit, as well as provide a way to give players “bonus” credits for depositing a higher
amount of money.
When programming the Coin-In Menu, Channel 1 is set for the lowest value coin, Channel 2
for the next highest value, etc. If all six coin inputs are not used, the unused inputs must be
set to “N/A”. Adjust the coin/credit/meter pulse settings by touching the up and down
arrows on the field you want to change.
COIN INPUT COIN VALUE COINS = CREDITS & METER PULSES
1A 10p 3 1 3
2B 20p 3 2 6
3C 50p 1 2 player premium 25p/credit 5
4D 1£ 1 5 player premium 20p/credit 10
In the above example (UK currency), each game costs one (1) credit and the cost for a
single credit is 30p. This method is preferred if you want game cost to always be reflected
as “1 credit.”
COIN INPUT COIN VALUE COINS = CREDITS & METER PULSES
1A 10p 1 1 1
2B 20p 1 2 2
3C 50p 1 6 1 bonus credit 5
4D 1£ 1 15 5 bonus credits 10
In the above example (UK currency), the cost of a credit is set to 10p and each game costs
3 credits (for a total of 30p). This method allows game cost to be increased by the smallest
unit of currency used (e.g. increasing the cost of Solitaire to four (4) credits would increase
the game cost by 10p).
In both examples, note that meter pulses are independent of credits and only track the unit
of currency (10p in the examples). Players are given an incentive to deposit more money
by giving them “bonus” credits for depositing 50p or £1. Coins may be deposited in any
combination of values and the game will automatically register the highest number of credits
for the total amount of coins deposited. Once a game is played, any remaining fractional
credits are erased.
Generally, most countries have a factory default setting. This setting can be adjusted (as
described above), but will return if the game memory is cleared. Some programs, depending
on the key used, have a currency default display located to the left of the coin inputs. It
shows the currency value for each of the coin inputs. This display is used as a guide and
is not used in any calculations. Touch the currency default display to hide/show the display.

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.

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.
Certain features will not be available in
Coinless Coin Op Mode, such as MegaNet
content, Merit Money, Promo Credits, Free
Credits, TouchTunes® music. Pricing for
these features can only be displayed in
currency values, not credits.
Settings
Touching the Settings button allows the
operator to choose whether players can
play Per Game, Per Time, or both when the
game is in Coinless Coin Op mode. Per
Time pricing can be changed on this screen
with the up and down arrows. The
currency amount will apply to each 15-
minute time block selected by the customer.
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.
