GAME PLAY
Super Shot Deluxe does provide game variety through four different games and the excitement of direct competition
through linking two to six games together. We have tried to design the game play to be as simple as possible for the
players to understand while incorporating the above features. However, it is important that you, the game operator,
understand the workings of the game thoroughly.
Prior to leaving your game open for play, you should be sure you have tested the game to ensure proper operation. See
“Test Instructions.”
You also need to make sure the game is set according to your desires and particular circumstances. See “Game
Options.”
Linked or Individual Games.
The Super Shot Deluxe may be linked, to other Super Shot Deluxe units, for competition among players. See “Assembly
Instructions” and “Game Options.” However, Super Shot Deluxe is also an individual unit. These Game Play instructions
assume for the most part that two or more Super Shot Deluxe games are linked together. Obviously, the references to
linked or competition games should be ignored where not applicable, but the remaining game play instructions should be
applicable.
Inserting Coins.

Super Shot Deluxe
Assembly and Operating Manual
Page 16 of 52
Insert coins and press a button. (Not necessary if the game has been set for Free Play. See "Game Options-Free Play”).
The number of coins required for one credit is adjustable. See “Game Options-Coins per credit.” The length of time
given for one credit is adjustable. See “Game Options-Seconds per Game” and “Game Options-Games Play Bonus.”
After inserting enough coins for one or more credits, the Scoreboard will instruct the player to press a button to select the
game desired. There are four options available
Continuous: The basket moves back and forth continuously throughout game play.
Push-Back: The basket moves in increments after each successful basket.
Classic: The basket stays up front until last part of game when it moves to the rear.
Random: The basket moves back and forth randomly
Competition vs. Solo Play.
When two or more games are linked together, players may choose to play against each other or individually based on the
timing of when they put in their money and press a game select button. Before the first player presses a game select
button, he should wait until all the players against whom he wishes to compete have put their money into the game. Once
one player has pressed a game select button, the Scoreboard will count down the time remaining for other players to coin
up and “vote” for the game they want to play by pressing a game selection buttons. The amount of time in the countdown
is adjustable. See “Game Options Network Setup.” The actual game selected to be played by the group will be
determined by majority vote. All ties are determined by the following priority.
• Random
• Push-back
• Continuous
• Classic
If a player has not pressed a game start button prior to the end of the count down period, he will still be included in the
competition game as long as he had entered enough coins to get a credit prior to the end of the countdown period. If you
prefer to only include those that have pressed the button, then you can change this. See “Game Options-B, Network Set-
Up”.
While the Competition linked game is playing, no other Competition games may begin. Players can start individual
games by putting in their money and selecting a game. If a Competition game is being played, and a player pressed the
game start button, the Scoreboard will not count down, the solo game will begin immediately.
The principal differences between a Competition game and a Solo game are. First, in a Competition game, the games
involved start and end simultaneously. Second the other players’ scores are shown on the Scoreboard during game play.
Thrid, the Scoreboard declares each player’s order of finish at the end of the game. We believe these features greatly
enhance the enjoyment of our Competition game.
Nonetheless, a Solo game is still a complete and enjoyable game that is identical to the competition game except for the
competitive features outlined above. In linked games, it is important to have the sole game available because some
players may not want to wait until the end of a Competition game to play a game. Solo games enable them to do this,
NOTE: On all non-linked units, all games are Solo games.
Game Start.

Super Shot Deluxe
Assembly and Operating Manual
Page 17 of 52
Prior to the start of the game, the basket will move forward all the way to its most forward position. During this time, the
ball return gate goes down enabling the balls to roll to the player. To be fair, the game clock does not start and baskets do
not count until the basket has come all the way forward and stops, enabling plenty of time for the ball to roll to the
players.
Game Play.
The object is to score as many points as possible within the time allowed. In a Competition game, the object is to score
more points than your opponents.
Scoring.
Successful baskets count two points or, in some cases, three points if this option is enabled and the requirements are
satisfied. See “Game Options-Three Points”. The factory settings provide that three points will be awarded when a
basket is made while the backboard is in the rear 1/3 of the track. All other baskets count as two points.
End of Game.
At the end of the game, the buzzer will sound the basket will go as far back as it can go and the ball return gate will rise,
preventing balls from returning to the players. The Scoreboard will recap the score and, if a Competition game, display
each player’s order finish.
Credits.
The game accepts money at any time. At the end of game, if there are any credits remaining, the Scoreboard will display
how many games (credits) the player had remaining and instruct him to press a button to select a game.
Tickets.
In the event the game is out of tickets or a malfunction occurs, the message “Call Attendant” will appear on the
Scoreboard.
Generally, the dispenser has run out of tickets and you may choose any one of the two following procedures to continue
after the tickets are reloaded. If loaded, some other notch failure has occurred and it must be fixed prior to proceeding.
Note the number of tickets owed on the Scoreboard. Correct the problem first. Then move the ticket past the notch
sensor until the “cash register” sound is heard, the A & B button will flash. To dispense tickets owed, press and release
A and then B. Tickets will dispense until paid in full.
If the player has walked away instead of calling for an attendant, you may wish to utilize the second option. Press the
Test Button and then exit by pressing this Test Button again. The memory will clear and the tickets and the game will go
into its attract mode.

GAME OPTIONS
Super Shot Deluxe has been designed to give the operator a great deal of flexibility in operating the game. Rather than
employing a dip switch system, Super Shot Deluxe employs a system using the Test Button which affords the operator
many more choices than could otherwise be practically provided. The following pages describe the Options Settings you
may use.
The Settings at which the game has been set by the factory have been marked on the Option Setting sheet affixed to the
inside of the Front Cabinet of your game.
NOTE FOR LINKED GAMES: IN THE CASE OF LINKED GAMES, YOU SELECT ALL THE OPTIONS ON THE
MASTER UNIT ONLY. FOR ALL OF THE OTHER UNITS (THE SLAVES), YOU NEED ONLY SELECT THE
OPTIONS UNDER OPTION B, NETWORK SETUP.
With the game powered up, press the Test Button located at the top center of the Electronic chassis plate inside the Front
Cabinet.
To access and change the Game Options, the operator must use the buttons located on the front of the Control Panel. The
location of the button, its normal function, its call letter and its function Game Options are set forth below:
Call Option
Location Label Letter Functions
Upper Left Classic A Cycle Forward
Lower Left Continuous B Cycle Backward
Upper Right Push Back C Select
Lower Right Random D None
Once the Scoreboard has displayed the software revision and check codes, press the “A” Button to access Checkout.
Press the “A” Button again to access Game Options. To cycle through the Game Options, continue pressing the “A”
Button. When an Option that you wish to change or review is displayed on the Moving Message Sign, press the “C”
Button. The Setting on which this Option is currently operating will be shown on the Scoreboard. To cycle through
various Settings available for that Option, press the “A” Button. To select a Setting, press the “C” Button. To advance to
the next Options, press the “A” Button. To return to the previous option, press the “B” Button. Press the Test Button and
the game will reset.
DEFAULT OPTION/GAME TYPE
Game Type. Under this Option, you should set the unit as “Deluxe”, which enables the four backboard movement
games (Classic, Continuous, Random, and Push Back). The only time you would want to set this Option to Standard is if
you have a service problem relating to the backboard movement. While waiting to service this problem to keep the game
from being down, you could set this Option to Standard. In this event , you need to physically move the backboard to the
full forward position so that the gate is all the way down and disconnect the power to the Motor at J 1 on the Motor
Control Board.
You also have the ability to reset all the Options to their “Default Settings” or factory backup instructions.

Super Shot Deluxe
Assembly and Operating Manual
Page 19 of 52
NOTE: The factory may have preset some of your Options on other than the Default Settings. For example, a Default
Setting is for “No Redemption”. However, if ticket dispenser is installed in your game at the factory, then the factory
would have preset your game accordingly and with other ticket settings, rather than the Default Settings.
Default Settings
The Option to load the Default Settings is actuated when it is selected. After selecting this Setting, you may cycle to those
Options that you wish to set at other than default Settings.
NETWORK SETUP
This Option enables you to set up your game for linking with other Super Shot Deluxe units, or for setting your game as
an individual unit.
Master / Slave. The first function is to select whether the unit you are setting is the Master or a Slave. For each set of
linked games, there is only one Master. The Master is physically configured differently than the Slaves, so you must
check the Chassis Plate Cover for a decal from the factory stating whether this unit has been configured as a
Master or Slave.
The Master Unit is responsible for directing the other games in all linked-communications. The position of the Master, in
relation to the Slaves, does not matter. It can be to the right of the Slaves, to the left or in between.
If you wish to change a game from Master to Slave, or vice versa, you must first adjust the positions of the shorting plugs
on the Network interface Board.
If the three shorting jumpers are plugged onto the bottom two pins (towards the word “Slave”) then the game has been
configured as a Slave. All you have to do to configure the game as a Master is to remove all three plugs and reinsert them
onto the top two pins of each set (towards the word Master).
If your Super Shot will operate as an individual unit, the shorting plugs can be configured either as a Master or a Slave.
However, we recommend that it be set as a Slave, in which case you need to set the Network interface Board. See
“Assembly Instructions.”
