INTRODUCTION

GAME FEATURES

This game has many outstanding features making it

the perfect game for just about any location.

The game was designed with the location in mind,

featuring unparalleled flexibility in regards to custom

game set-up and programming. Virtually all game

play, and ticket dispensing options are operator

adjustable, practically letting the operator “build his

own game.”

CYCLONE™ has many unique features for the

“Ticket Spitter” part of the game. Its Centerpiece

design sets it apart from all other games in its

category. Its Game Play, which is ALL SKILL,

having no bounces, rolls, flips, or other chancy

situations, also showcases its creative design.

These and other features, give the players

something that keeps them playing time and time

again.

Reliability is the key word in the design of this game.

The electronics in the game have been extensively

tested to ensure years of trouble free service. The

light ring light bulbs are powered using special

circuitry and voltages to greatly enhance their life.

The neon bulbs used should last over the life of the

game.

The cabinet has been designed using only the finest

materials available. The durable scratch resistant

painted surfaces will last for years. The dome is

made from LEXAN™, an almost indestructible

material.

Game set-up is a snap. Just plug in, set a few

programmable options, and you are ready to go.

Even the programming options are easy to

understand and adjust.

A “Tickets Owed Display” is used for each station to

show tickets owed to the player. More on this

feature is given in the game play section.

GAME PLAY

The game begins when the player has inserted

enough money to create 1 “credit”.

The game has a ring of light bulbs encircling the

playfield. A lit bulb encircles the field every second

and a half. The object of the game is to stop the

light between two neon arches located in the middle

of the play zone.

Each light bulb zone has a “ticket” value associated

with it. As you get closer to the two neon arches in

the center of your zone, the ticket value increases.

Between the two neon arches described above is

the game JACKPOT. This is where a large number

of tickets can be won.

Once the game begins you have one chance to stop

the lights (for each credit inserted). Wherever the

light stops is how many tickets the game pays out.

Each time the jackpot is NOT hit, the jackpot value

increases by one or more tickets, (if the

incrementing jackpot option is selected). When the

jackpot is hit, a jackpot routine including special

lights and sounds is displayed.

Additional games can be played while tickets are

dispensing.

The game also has a unique “Tickets Owed” display.

This display has many uses. When tickets are won,

the amount won are displayed, and then counted

down as the tickets are dispensed. This is a handy

feature in the event that the game runs out of tickets

while dispensing, or if the game is out of tickets. If

the game cannot dispense the tickets it should, it will

keep adding the number it should dispense to the

tickets owed display, and thus allow the player to

continue playing the game until an attendant can be

contacted. This feature is also very helpful if the “do

not dispense tickets on jackpot” option is chosen. It

may be desirable to NOT dispense tickets if the

jackpot is set to a very high number of tickets. This

will be valuable, as the number of jackpot tickets

won would then be added to the display, then the

ticket dispenser will lock until an attendant is

located, and he resets the dispenser.

GAME SET-UP / TESTING

SAFETY

PRECAUTIONS

IMPORTANT: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE

DIRECTIONS CLOSELY COULD CAUSE SERIOUS

DAMAGE TO YOUR GAME.

WARNING: WHEN INSTALLING THIS GAME, A

3-PRONG GROUNDED RECEPTACLE MUST BE

USED. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN

SERIOUS INJURY TO YOURSELF OR OTHERS.

FAILURE TO USE A GROUNDED RECEPTACLE

COULD ALSO CAUSE IMPROPER GAME

OPERATION, OR DAMAGE TO THE

ELECTRONICS.

DO NOT DEFEAT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING

PRONG ON THE POWER CORD FOR THE SAME

REASONS AS GIVEN ABOVE. USING AN

IMPROPERLY GROUNDED GAME COULD VOID

YOUR WARRANTY.

PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE SET UP

SECTION BELOW, REGARDING THE VOLTAGE

SETTINGS.

GAME SET-UP

BEFORE PLUGGING THE GAME IN, OR TURNING

IT ON, BE SURE THE GAME HAS BEEN SET TO

THE PROPER VOLTAGE. YOUR GAME SHOULD

COME PRE-SET FROM THE FACTORY TO THE

CORRECT VOLTAGE, HOWEVER IT IS A GOOD

IDEA TO CHECK THE A.C. WALL RECEPTACLE

VOLTAGE BEFORE PLUGGING THE GAME IN.

The Game comes with 4 available voltage settings

as described below. These settings should be used

to provide power in the correct range to the game

without over or under powering it.

POWER RANGE VOLTAGE SETTING

90 – 110 V.A.C. 110

110 – 130 V.A.C. 120

200 – 220 V.A.C. 220

220 – 240 V.A.C. 240

The game uses a POWER MODULE to handle all of

the power distribution chores on the game. It

incorporates an ON-OFF switch, primary A.C. game

fusing, and power switching capabilities, for using

the game with a wide variety of A.C. voltages by

re-strapping the main transformer.

A.C. LINE VOLTAGE

ADJUSTMENT

To adjust the game for a different A.C. voltage:

1. Unplug the game from the outlet

2. Disconnect the power cord from the power

module.

3. Using a small flat blade screwdriver, pry the fuse

holder from the power module.

4. Notice a small window on the fuse holder with an

arrow that points to the voltage the game is

presently set alt.

5. Using the small flat blade screwdriver, lift the

retaining tab that holds the voltage selector in

the fuse holder.

6. Rotate the voltage selector until the voltage you

want is displayed in the voltage select window.

7. Push the voltage selector back into the fuse

holder until it snaps into place. NOTE: Do not

force the selector into the fuse holder. If it does

not go in easily, it is not being installed correctly.

8. Snap the fuse holder assembly back into the

power module.

9. Plug the power cord back into the receptacle in

the power module, and into the wall outlet.

NOTE: WHEN CHANGING FROM 110-120 TO 220-

240, LOWER THE MAIN FUSE VALUE BY ½.

WHEN CHANGING FROM 220-240 TO 110-120,

DOUBLE THE MAIN FUSE VALUE.

GAME SET-UP / TESTING

PROGRAMMING

YOUR GAME

This section will give you a detailed explanation of

the functions and operating characteristics of each

of the programming buttons. Please read this

section carefully to avoid problems with your game.

NOTE: THE PROGRAMMING BUTTONS SHOWN

BELOW MAY BE LOCATED EITHER ON THE

MAIN P.C. BOARD AS ILLUSTRATED, OR ON A

CONTROLL BRACKET ATTACHED TO THE BLUE

ACCESS DOOR.

PROGRAMMING BUTTON

(SW1)

This button is used to enter the “Programming”

mode. It is located on the Main P.C. Board in the

lower left hand corner, or on the blue access door of

the game. Press this button once to enter the

programming mode.

Once in this mode you can push SW2 or SW3 to

make adjustments to the game.

To exit the programming mode and return to game

play, push this button once again.

SELECT BUTTON

This button is used to advance through all of the

various programming option modes. Each push of

this button, will move you to the next programmable

option. The option number is displayed on the large

“JACKPOT” display.

STEP BUTTON

(SW3)

Each push of this button will advance you to the next

available “value” for a particular programmable

option. The value for that option is shown on the

smaller “TICKETS OWED” display located on the

control panel.

SELF TEST MODE

(SW4)

When this button is pressed, the game goes into

“Self Test” mode. In this mode, the game will

advance the lights slowly, so it is easier to se if any

light bulbs have burned out. Also, each push on any

of the control panel push buttons will activate a

sound, to test each game sound as well as each

push button.

QUICK START

(SW5)

When this button is pushed, a game will play,

however NONE OF THE TICKET DISPENSERS,

OR ANY COUNTERS WILL WORK. This allows

game testing with out affecting accountability. If

GAME SET-UP / TESTING

OPTION MODES

Please read the setting information carefully

BEFORE making any adjustments. Failure to set

options properly can yield unexpected results.

PLEASE NOTE: THE VALUES PRE-SET AT THE

FACTORY HAVE BEEN FOUND TO WORK BEST

FOR MOST LOCATIONS.

MODE 1

(COINS PER CREDIT)

The number set in this option, is the number of coins

necessary to earn 1 credit and play 1 game. Setting

a “0” in this mode will set the game in “Free Play”

mode. The default for this mode is “1”.

MODE 2

(VOLUME)

The number set in this mode controls the relative

volume of sound. “0” equals the minimum, “9”

equals the maximum. As this button is pushed, a

sound is played to make it easier to determine

where the volume should be set. The default for this

mode is “5”.

NOTE: THE SOUND IN THIS GAME CANNOT BE

COMPLETELY TURNED OFF.

MODE 3

(ATTRACT MODE)

The attract mode in this game consists of the theme

song being played whenever called to do so by the

game program. The numbers in this mode

represent minutes between attract modes. Setting a

“0” in this mode turns the attract mode off. The

default value in this mode is 3.

MODE 4-29

(ZONE VALUES)

The playfield is broken up into 3 “sections”, 1 for

each player station. Within each section, lies the

center “Jackpot” zone, with a series of 26 lights, 13

to either side of it. Each light has a point value

associated with it. Each light can be independently

set for a point value different from that set at the

factory. Each of these lights is a separate “zone”.

Below is a table that indicates the 26 zones for each

player station, and the associated “mode” number

for each. Zone 1 is the furthest zone from the

Jackpot to the left, while zone 26 is the furthest zone

from the jackpot to the right. Also in this table, are

the default values for each zone.

LIGHT RING ZONE VALUES

Each zone can be set from 0 to 20. If values are

changed from the factory default settings, it will be

necessary to change the numbers indicated on the

game by using the supplied decal overlay sheets.

GAME SET-UP / TESTING

MODE 30

(INITIAL JACKPOT VALUE)

The value shown is the value of the Jackpot (zone

between the 2 center arches) when the game is first

powered up, or just after a Jackpot is won. The

default value for this mode is “100”.

MODE 31

(JACKPOT INCREMENT)

The number shown here, is the amount of tickets the

Jackpot value will increase by each time the game is

played, and the Jackpot IS NOT WON. Setting a “0”

for this mode will turn the incrementing feature off.

Default for this mode is “1”.

MODE 32

(JACKPOT CAP)

The number shown in this mode is the maximum

amount of tickets the game can dispense when

hitting the Jackpot. Setting a “0” turns the cap off.

The default value for this mode is “0”.

MODE 33

(JACKPOT LOCK-UP)

This option allows the operator the choice of

whether or not to dispense tickets when the jackpot

is hit.

If the operator normally sets the jackpot to a very

high value, he may not wish to dispense the tickets

when the jackpot is hit. If the game has a lower

Jackpot set, it is a good idea to let the game

dispense tickets by itself.

It is usually better to let the game dispense tickets,

as part of the fun of the game is watching all those

tickets come out when the jackpot is hit.

Setting a “1” dispenses tickets. Setting a “0” does

not allow ticket dispensing when the Jackpot is hit.

NOTE: WHEN THE GAME IS SET TO NOT

DISPENSE TICKETS, THE TICKET DISPENSER

RESET BUTTON MUST BE PRESSED AGAIN FOR

THE GAME TO RESUME DISPENSING ANY

TICKETS AT THAT STATION. EACH PLAYER

STATION HAS A RESET BUTTON LOCATED ON

THE COIN MECH HOLDER.

MODE 34

(JACKPOT DIFFICULTY)

To make the game easier or harder to win, this

option should be adjusted. The value displayed is

equal to how may milliseconds the “WINDOW” to

win the Jackpot is open. (A millisecond is 1/1000 of

a second.) A setting of “1” is the hardest and a

setting of “20” is the easiest. The default value for

this mode is “3”.

MODE 35

(JACKPOT WINABILITY)

This mode adds a valuable feature to those

locations that have large variations in age groups.

Under the normal circumstances, the operator sets

up MODE 34 for the best payout for his location.

However this may be difficult for some age groups.

There are also circumstances where the operator

may want the jackpot to be won on an average of

XXX amount of games. This option will allow for

that. When this option is selected, no matter what

window value is chosen in MODE 34, the game will

open the window up to 20 milliseconds (easiest)

every XXX games. Every XXX games, is the

number you choose on this setting. A setting of “0”

turns this option off. The default setting for this

option is “0”.

MODE 36

(CREDIT DISCOUNTING)

When this mode is enabled, the game will give you 1

free credit for every XXX coins inserted into the

game AT ONCE. A setting of “0” turns this mode of.

Example: If “2” is chosen, for every 2 coins

inserted, 1 free game will be given. If “4” is chosen,

for every 4 coins inserted, 1 free game will be given.

The default value for this option is “0”.

MODE 37

(JACKPOT MEMORY)

This option allows the game to revert to the initial

Jackpot value, (see mode 17) or keep the last value

shown on the display when the game is shut off.

Setting a “0” resets the value, setting a “1” retains

the value. The default value is “1”.

GAME SET-UP / TESTING

MODE 38

(RESET ALL)

When this mode is selected, the game will revert to

all factory default settings.

SET “1” THEN EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE TO

RESET ALL VALUES TO FACTORY DEFAULT.

The default value for this mode is “0”.

TESTING

After the initial programming adjustments have been

made, it’s time to test your game for proper

operation.

1. Locate the game to its permanent location.

2. Be sure the game has been properly plugged

into a 3 prong grounded outlet, and that the

receptacle is in good working order.

3. If using an extension cord, be sure it is a 3-prong

grounded type of at least 16 Ga. materials.

4. Adjust the leg levers and lock into position.

5. Verify that the game is set up for proper voltage,

and the power to the game is on.

6. Insert coins at least ten times into each coin

mechanism to assure proper operation. An

audible sound should be heard each time a coin

is dropped.

7. Check the coin counter (located inside the blue

coin door) and check for proper operation.

8. Run tickets through each ticket dispenser by

playing games at each station. Check that

tickets do not get stuck behind ticket louver.

9. Check each ticket counter for proper operation.

10. Check to see that the proper amount of tickets

are dispensed based on the numbers shown on

the playfield.

11. Check that all door locks work smoothly.

12. Check game volume during busy time at location

to set it at the proper level.

MAINTENANCE

GENERAL

MAINTENANCE

This game has been designed for an absolute

minimum amount of maintenance.

The light ring light bulbs have been designed

into the game in such a fashion as to greatly

extent their life. However, eventually they will

reach the end of their life span. When this time

comes, you will notice that 2 or 3 bulbs have

burned out within a couple of weeks time from

each other. At this point, it is advisable to

change all of the bulbs. The bulbs are a very

simple push in type, very easy to change, and

very inexpensive. Changing all of the bulbs at

once, will save you work in the long run, and

keep the game looking good.

CLEANING

Regular cleaning of the game will keep it looking

new, and greatly enhance its appeal.

Clean the dome with a spray type furniture

polish. Pledge™ is a very good cleaner. It will

fill in minor scratches, and give the plastic

surface a deeper, clearer look. Avoid using

glass cleaners, as they dry out the plastic and

give it a hazy look.

Clean the cabinetry with a good cleaner such as

Fantastik™ or 409™ and a soft rag. A mild

soapy solution can also be used.

NOTE: DO NOT USE ALCOHOL, THINNERS

OF ANY KIND, OR PINBALL PLAYFIELD

OPERATIONAL

BACKGROUND

The CYCLONE™ coin operated amusement game

has been designed for an absolute minimum of

service. Special circuitry prolongs the life of the

incandescent light bulbs. In addition, the neon bulbs

have a life span measured in years.

The Main P.C. board has been designed with 7

separate P.C. mounted power supplies, to segregate

different areas of the electronics. In other words, if 1

station goes down, the other 2 stations will continue

to work. If the sound goes down, the rest of the

game will continue to play, etc. Additionally the

power supplies are all fan forced cooled.

The Light Ring P.C. Boards were designed to add

reliability to the game, by eliminating the massive

amount of wiring that would be needed for the 84

light ring bulbs used. The light sockets on the board

were chosen to allow for the least expensive bulbs

possible to be used. The boards were designed to

change quickly and easily in the unlikely event that

something goes wrong with one of them.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PHILOSOPHY

To find problems with this game, always first check

what should be obvious. See that the game is

plugged in, and all of the fuses on the game are

good. This includes the fuse that is located INSIDE

the power module.

Next, check to see that all of the connectors are

firmly seated, and that none of the wires have pulled

out of them.

When trying to find out if specific components are

bad or not, try swapping them with components from

another player station to see if the problem moves

with the component, or stays where it was. This will

help you to know if you have a problem with a

specific component, or maybe a problem with either

the wiring or the Main P.C. Board.

Use extreme caution when using probes or volt

meters if the game is powered up. If doing

continuity checks, it is important to disconnect the

harnessing at both ends, as attached they may yield

erroneous results.

If P.C. Boards are suspected as causing problems,

check to see that all I.C. chips are firmly seated on

the boards.

If light bulbs are suspected, swap them with one that

is known to work to narrow the problem down to bulb

or P.C. Board.

Light Ring Is Dim Or Not Lighting:

Step 1: Check fuse F3, and make sure the fuse holder is in good condition.

Step 2: Check voltage on VR3 and VR4 (VR4 is located directly below the fan on the main board) for an

output of 13vdc. You can do this by placing your black lead of your voltmeter on the ground wire (black

wire) for the main board fan, then touching the top of the voltage regulator with the red lead of your meter.

If one or both of your regulators are below 11vdc then BOTH VR3 and VR4 need to be replaced. If the

voltage is above 11vdc you may be able to get your voltage up to 13vdc by loosening and tightening the

bolts holding the voltage regulator to the board and the heat sink.

Step 3: Check the output of DB3 (located below the heat sink) for approximately 15 volts of unregulated

DC. You can do this by measuring the voltage on resistors R49 and R50. These are located on either

side of DB3.

Step 4: Check connector P1 for approximately 18 VAC across pins 1 and 5 (red and orange colored

wires), and pins 4 and 6 (also red and orange). Remember this is AC voltage so set your meter accord-

ingly.

Step 5: Check light ring harnessing for possible damage (exposed, broken or shorted wiring) and repair/

replace as necessary.

Step 6: Check the light ring PCB’s. To test the light ring boards you’ll need to narrow down where the

problem could be. First you need to identify what board is where. Open the blue coin door and look up at

the bottom of the playfield. You’ll see 6 light ring boards, with board #1 to the left of the blue coin door,

and board #6 to the right. The boards are in numeric order going counter-clockwise from this view. Now

disconnect the jumper wires between boards #1 and #2. Now only board #1 will light (seeing the light

rings are only a “display” of where the main board is calculating the light to be, board #1 will light as if it

was connected to the other five boards, if the board is working properly).

Cyclone Advance Technical Information

Step 6 (CONT): If board #1 works correctly, then replace the

jumper between boards #1 and #2 and remove the jumper

wires between boards #2 and #3. Boards #1 and #2 should

light accordingly. Continue this troubleshooting process until

either you have verified the light rings are operating properly

or you find the board(s) that is causing your issue. If you find

a board that doesn’t light, shuts down the light ring, or dims

the light ring, it is either the board you just connected or the

board before it in the chain.

Step 7: Try replacing U8 on the main pcb (this chip balances the regulators VR3 and VR4). If this chip

failed it may be forcing one of the regulators to be “overworked” and that overworked regulator is failing

prematurely. This would lead to replacing U8, VR3, and VR4.

No Power To One Station:

Step 1: Check fuse (F5 for Blue station, F6 for the Pink Station, and F7 for the green station).

Step 2: Check diode bridge (DB5 for Blue station, DB6 for Pink station, and DB7 for the green station) for

an output voltage of approximately 15 unregulated VDC.

Step 3: Check voltage regulator (VR5 for Blue station, VR6 for Pink station, and VR7 for Green station)

for an output of 12 VDC (measure this voltage the same way as described in section 2 of the Light Ring Is

Dim Or Not Lighting).

Step 4: Make sure there is no damage to the wiring from the main PCB to the inoperable station. On the

station connector (P2 for the Blue station, P3 for the Pink station, and P4 for the Green station) verify

there is 12 VDC across pin 1 (+12 VDC) and pin 7 (ground).

Step 5: Try swapping station connectors at the main PCB. This will help identify if there is an issue with

the station or the main pcb.

No Ticket Dispense/Constant Ticket Dispense On One or More Stations:

Try swapping ticket mechs or ticket mech boards between a

station that works and the station that doesn’t. This will help

verify if you issue is a main PCB or a ticket mech issue

Check the station wiring between ticket dispenser and main

PCB for damage and/or swap station connectors to see if prob-

lem follows the switch.

Make sure ticket mech is getting 12 VDC from the main PCB, if

no voltage is present check harnessing to station connector

and/or see No Power to One Station section above.

Swap chips U13 and U15 on the main PCB. These chips con-

trol various output signals, with your ticket run signal coming

from U13. After swapping these chips if your ticket mech runs

properly then replace the chip that was originally in the U13

socket.

Scrambled Displays:

Swap display with known working display from another station. If problem follows display board,

then replace display.

Try disconnecting the main to neon harness (connector P7 on main board). If your game has any

bad neon bulbs, neon harnessing, or blown components on neon board, the neon circuits may be

transmitting high frequency noise. This noise can interfere with clock, data and latch information

going to the display boards. If you disconnect the harness for the neon at connector P7 on the main

board and the displays begin to operate properly, you will need to check all harnessing, bulbs, and

the neon board for damaged wiring, exposed wiring or damaged components on the neon board.

You may also want to check the neon ballasts on the neon controller board. There are four wires

coming of each of the 12 ballasts. If these wires are touching, they can, in some cases, also cause

noise.

Swap chip U23 on the main board with a known working chip. This chip splits the clock pulse into 5

separate signals, one for each station, one for the light ring and one for the neon. If this chip is mal-

functioning it may be distorting one of the outputs, causing your display to scramble.

Try swapping the microprocessor U2 on the main board. This chip controls the entire game and

could be being to fail.

Cyclone Advance Technical Information

Light In Button On/Off All The Time:

Step 1: Check to make sure the bulb is good and that the

harnessing/connectors are in good condition

Step 2: Check drive transistor on the main board (Q2 for

blue, Q3 for pink, and Q4 for green). Replace if necessary

Neon(s) Are Out:

Step 1: Check fuse F2 on main board. Also verify holder is holding fuse properly.

Step 2: Check voltage on VR2, you’ll be looking for 12 VDC.

Step 3: Check the harness/connectors between the neon board and the main board looking for possi-

ble exposed or broken wires.

Step 4: Try swapping with a known working neon bulb to see if bulb is bad or the output to that bulb is

bad.

Step 5: Replace neon transformer, 2 transistors, capacitor, and inductor (all parts available in neon

repair Kit CC2020RX and will repair only one neon circuit on the neon controller board).

Game Not Saving Programming Options:

Step 1: Check battery on main board, verify it has 3.2 VDC. If not replace it

Step 2: Check D2 on main board, if this diode is open in both directions or shorted in both directions,

then replace it.

Step 3: Replace U2.

Fan On Main Board Dead:

Step 1: Check voltage to fan. This should be 12 VDC. That voltage also powers the neon controller

board.

Step 2: Replace fan. Note - if game is run without a properly running main board fan, the voltage

regulators and bridge rectifiers on the main board may fail from thermal breakdown.
