2. Inspect the crates for damage. If any damage is visible note the crate number, and the position and
extent of the damage. If the crates are not to be opened immediately, the shipping company should be
notied as soon as possible. If the crates are to be opened at this time, wait until the product is inspected
for damage.
3. The crates should be moved to a position close to the operating area before opening.
4. The crates should be opened carefully, the contents removed and the quantities checked against the
shipping notes. A product identication chart can be found at Appendix A (page 51). If any damage was

1.02 Setting out the equipment:
1. Before starting the installation place the consoles on the oor in the position they are to be mounted. The
consoles may be mounted either indoors or outside. Console number “1”should be on the left with the
consoles running in numerical order to the right.
2. Place the power supply unit (PSU) in the position it will be used.
Caution!
The PSU must be mounted in such a position that the public do not have access to it.
3. Place the chargers in the position they will be used. Air vents at the top and bottom of the case provide
cooling. It is important that the chargers are positioned so that there is an uninterrupted ow of cool air
over the vents.
Caution!
The chargers must be mounted indoors and in such a position that the public do not have access to them.
They must be protected from water.
4. Check that the PSU and charger mains cables will reach the electric supply sockets.
5. Lay out the 24V PSU cable and check that it is long enough to reach from the master console to the PSU.
Note!
The PSU cable must not be lengthened without consulting Tornado International Ltd.
Tip!
The master console can be identied by an additional door to the right of the coin acceptor door. It is usual-
ly numbers 3/4 or 5/6. It is the console with the transmitter inside.
6. If you have more than one console open the console door (the key is in the spares pack) and locate the
console cable coiled up inside. Check that the cables from all additional consoles reach the console connec-
tion sockets inside the master console.
Note!
The console cables must not be lengthened without consulting Tornado International Ltd.
When you have satised yourself that all of the units are suitably positioned the installation can begin.

1.03 Consoles
The consoles are usually mounted on a fence or low wall. The lip (See Dia. 3) at the top of the console
serves to locate the console on the top of the wall or fence and assists in the mounting process. The lip
may be removed if required by marking a line along the top of the console and cutting along the line with
a hacksaw. There are 4 mounting holes in the back of the console and large cable holes on the back and
underside of the console to route the console connection cables. (See Dia. 2)

Mounting the consoles
1. With the coin acceptor door open the console should be placed in the chosen position on the wall or
fence to which it is to be xed.
2. The position of the mounting holes (and cable holes if required) should be marked on the wall or fence
using a scribe or pencil from inside the console.
3. The console can then be removed and using an 8mm drill bit, the four mounting holes can be drilled in
the wall or fence. Any required cable holes can then be drilled in the wall or fence, using a 51mm hole saw.
4. Locate the console mounting bolts in the spares pack and position the bolts with one washer under the
head through the wall or fence from the model operating side.
5. Prepare four washers and wing nuts. With a helper holding the bolts in place, lift the console into position
and locate it onto the mounting bolts. Fit a washer and wing nut to each bolt and tighten securely.
6. Repeat for each console.
Caution!
Whenever possible use the predrilled mounting holes in the rear of the console (See Dia. 2). If this is not
possible, alternative holes may be drilled in the back of the console only after checking that there are no
items or electronics inside the console in the area to be drilled. Any damage caused by not following this
instruction is the responsibility of the installer.

1.04 Power supply unit (PSU)
The PSU can either be placed on a shelf or hung on a wall using the slots on the back plate (see Dia. 2). To
wall mount the PSU, use the lugs on the PSU backplate as a template and a draw the two drilling locations
on the wall. Drill the holes and insert the rawl plugs and screws provided in the spares pack (1F00-001 -
Charger & PSU xings) the create the mounts.
Locate it in close proximity to a wall outlet, but do not plug it in yet.
Caution!
The PSU must be mounted in such a position that the public do not have access to it.

1.05 Chargers
Air vents
Charge indicators
The chargers must be mounted on a wall using the slots in the rear of the case (see Dia. 2). Draw a 325mm
horizontal line on the wall on which you want to mount the charger case and drill a hole at each end. Use
the rawl plugs and screws provided in the spares pack (1F00-001 - Charger & PSU xings) to create the
mounts.
Air vents at the top and bottom of the case provide cooling. It is important that the chargers are posi-
tioned so that there is an uninterrupted ow of cool air over the vents.
Caution!
The chargers must be mounted indoors and in such a position that the public do not have access to them.
They must be protected from water.
The chargers should now be connected to the electric supply. The batteries are fully charged when the
unit is dispatched from the factory, however if the unit has been in transit for some time it might be
prudent to charge the batteries whilst the rest of the installation is carried out. See the section “3.20
Battery charger” for how to charge the batteries.

1.06 Routing the console cables
Dia. 1 – The transmitter motherboard showing the master console connection sockets
(Inside the access door of the master console)
Each console has a grey cable coiled inside the console on the side nearest the master console. Each of
these has to be routed out of the console and into the master console. The cables should be supported
using 8mm cable clips every 30cm.
1. Open the coin acceptor door and locate the console cable.
2. Uncoil the cable and feed the plug out of the console using one of the large holes in the back or bottom
as required.
3. Route the cable to the master console and t the plug into the correct numbered socket on the trans-
mitter motherboard (See Dia. 1) (The socket numbers are on the transmitter motherboard cover). Do not
x the cables in position at this time.
4. Repeat the routing for all console cables. It should be noted that the cable for the master console is
tted at the factory. All of the console cables are the same length so some surplus will remain for consoles
close to the master console.
5. Leaving a small loop of cable in the master console, x the cables in position starting at the master
console and working toward the standard console(s).
6. Coil up any excess cable and place it inside the standard console to one side, ensuring that the coil of
cable does not interfere with the operation of any of the console controls.
7. Repeat the cable xing for any other consoles.
Note!
When you have nished connecting all of the supplied consoles check to ensure all of the master console
connection sockets have either a console connected or a dummy plug installed.
