INTRODUCTION

GAME FEATURES

NBA HOOPS™ is a revolutionary concept in Coin Oper-

ated basketball games. You will see that this game in-

cludes many features which make it the obvious choice

for your location

NBA HOOPS™ PLAY. NBA HOOPS™ incorporates a

STATIONARY basket that is user friendly and realistic.

Fun and easy to play for players of all ages, yet challeng-

ing enough for even the expert basketball players. Prac-

tice your basketball skills and try to better your last score

or compete against three other players.

CONTROL PANEL. Attractive LED displays are used to

display all scoring and vital information such as time,

credits and high score. The control panel is laid out in a

convenient user friendly fashion, making it easy for play-

ers to operate.

HEAVY DUTY CONSTRUCTION is incorporated through-

out the game by using only heavy gage metals and plas-

tics. The game can be assembled and disassembled

many times without any harm to the game. You will ap-

preciate this feature if you move your games often.

HIGH TECH GAME ELECTRONICS. Solid state electron-

ics are used throughout the game for their rugged reliabil-

ity as well as making it virtually impossible to connect har-

nessing the wrong way. Heavy duty optical sensors are

used throughout.

Digital sound effects are used for optimum dependability.

Over twenty sound effects are incorporated into the sound

effect circuitry. The game electronics have been highly

integrated into the Main PC Board assembly, making it

easy to repair games. The game has a full feature self-

test system to make troubleshooting easier.

OPTIONS. A ticket dispenser and/or a dollar bill validator

can be ordered with your game.

GAME PLAY

NBA HOOPS™ is an electromechanical coin operated

amusement game designed to be played by one to four

players.

NBA HOOPS™ is a game similar to the traditional bas-

ketball games already on the market. However, we have

made this an even more exciting game. The net remains

stationary as the player shoots over and over. Two points

are awarded for each basket scored. When 10 seconds

remain in the game, it awards the player three points for

all baskets scored.

LINKING is a popular option used in locations where

more than one game is to be used. The games are

“linked” to add direct head to head action between the

game players. This option is built into each Main PC

Board, and is easy as connecting a phone line and setting

a number in the programming mode.

ASSEMBLY

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

WARNING: WHEN INSTALLING THIS GAME,

A 3 PRONG GROUNDED A.C. RECEPTACLE MUST BE

USED. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN

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 REA-

SON AS GIVEN ABOVE. USING AN IMPROPERLY

GROUNDED GAME COULD VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK YOUR A.C.

RECEPTACLE TO BE SURE THE GROUND IS FUNC-

TIONING PROPERLY.

TOOLS NEEDED

Before you start, you will need the following items:

• 7/16” Combination Wrench

• 7/16” Deep Well Socket

• Ratchet

• Side Cutters

• Adjustable Pliers

• #2 Square Drive Bit

• 5/32” Security Wrench

If you plan on moving your game often, or would like to

speed up assembly, a cordless Drill is a good idea.

Your game requires a MINIMUM CEILING HEIGHT of

96” (8 feet). Check clearance before proceeding.

SET-UP

1. To begin, remove the game from the shipping con-

tainers.

2. Locate the main framework of the game. It may be

easier to assembly if the framework is laid on its side.

3. Locate the two “U” shaped legs, and insert them into

the bottom of the frame. At the front of the frame, use

the set of holes closer to the bottom of the legs. At the

rear of the frame, use the holes closer to the top of

the legs. Secure with (4) 1/4-20 X 2 1/2” bolts, (8) flat

washers and (4) Nylock nuts. (See Fig. 1)

4. Stand the frame up and move it into its permanent

position. It is a good idea to carry the frame rather

than slide it.

NOTE: IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO GET HELP

WHEN LIFTING THE GAME TO THE UPRIGHT POSI-

TION. THREE PEOPLE RECOMMENDED. THIS WILL

KEEP THE GAME FROM SLIDING WHEN LIFTED.

5. Move the cabinet to the front of the frame and bolt it

to the frame by installing the mounting bolts through

the back of the front legs and into the front cabinet’s

mounting holes. Secure with (4) 1/4-20 X 3” security

head Allen bolts and 4 flat black washers. (See Fig. 2)

6. Locate the harness that is tie wrapped up at the front

of the frame. Cut the tie wrap and feed the harness

through the frame and into the opening in the rear of

the cabinet. Connect the harness to the connector

located inside the cabinet.

frame sides and the top. Assemble using (6) 1/4-20 X

1 1/2” button head bolts, (12) flat washers and (6) 1/4-

20 Nylock nuts. (See Fig. 3)

8. Attach the backboard assembly to the cage frame-

work using (8) 1/4-20 x 1” button head screws and (6)

flat black washers. (See Fig. 4)

NOTE: DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE BOLTS IN THE

PIPES, OR THE INSERTS COULD BE DAMAGED.

BE CAREFUL NOT TO CROSS THREAD THE BOLTS IN

THE PIPES.

9. Install the Cage Frame assembly to the game. Install

by lifting the frame outside the game to mounting hole

and secure with (4) 1/4-20 X 1 1/2” button head

screws, (4) flat black washers (from the outside of the

Cage Frame) and (4) 1/4-20 joint connectors. (from

the inside of the cabinet) (See Fig. 5)

10. Feed the black/gray sensor cable through the back-

board harness hole. Feed the green/yellow ground

wire from the hoop through the same hole. Connect

the three single pin mate-lock connectors from the

black/gray sensor cable into the gray chassis cable,

and the green/yellow wires that all run along the right

hand side of the game. Connect the single pin mate-

lock connectors as follows:

White to White

Black to Black

Red to Red

Green/Yellow to Green/Yellow

CUSTOMIZING YOUR GAME

CUSTOMIZING YOUR GAME

This section will discuss subjects such as setting up cred-

its, time per game, awards, etc. the section below will

show how to enter into the programming mode and how

to adjust many of the game’s operating parameters.

ENTERING SET-UP MODE

You must enter set-up mode to adjust all of the game fea-

tures. This can be accomplished in the following manner:

1. Open the game’s coin door. This is the upper door

located on the upper right side of the lower cabinet.

2. Locate the Counter / Programming button. It is lo-

cated on the left hand side of the bracket that is at-

tached to the cash box enclosure. The Counter / Pro-

gramming button instruction decal is located on the

cash box enclosure. This will give you a brief descrip-

tion of the features outlined below, as well as how to

use them.

3. Press the Counter / Programming button.

4. If you wish to only read the “Counter”, look at the

“Player” displays to get the latest counter information.

The display should be read from the bottom left

(Player#4) position. Once you are done reading the

counter, press the Counter / Programming button

once again to return to game play.

CHANGING GAME SETTINGS

WHEN YOU PUSH THE Counter / Programming button,

you will notice that along with the counter numbers shown

in the “Player #” locations, there is a #1 shown in the

“Credits / Time Left” display. This is the counter’s “mode”

number. Each programmable “mode” on the game has a

number associated with it.

1. To advance through the different modes, press the

“Start” button. Each push of the button will advance

you to the next mode. Whenever you are done with

any programming changes, push the Counter / Pro-

gramming button to return to normal game play.

2. The current value for each mode will be shown in the

“Player #4” location.

3. To change the shown value to a lower number, press

the middle “Player Select” button.

PROGRAMMING

MODE #1

COUNTER

The counter is used to keep a running total of games

played on the machine since it was first built. This counter

is not re-settable unless power is removed from the bat-

tery backup on the PC Board. (small round battery)

NOTE: If power is removed from the PC Board, all other

custom game settings will have to be re-entered.

MODE #2

COIN MECHANISM #1

This adjusts the amount of coins needed to receive 1

credit on the game’s LEFT HAND COIN MECHANISM.

Set this number to reflect how many coins per credit.

Example: 2 Quarters per credit—enter the number 2.

MODE #3

COIN MECHANISM #2

This adjusts how many coins are required to receive 1

credit on the game’s RIGHT HAND COIN MECHANISM.

This mechanism is set differently, so it can be used for

fractional credits. For normal use, set a “1” for this mode.

If you wish to use this for coins with a different value than

that of coin mech #1, contact our service department for

set-up information for your particular application.

FREE PLAY

You can set your game up for free play by adjusting the

coins per credit for coin 1 to “0”.

MODE #4

CREDITS PER DOLLAR BILL

This option controls how many credits you will receive for

each dollar bill inserted.

MODE #5

CURRENT CREDITS

This displays the credits currently in the game. You can

manually remove or add credits to the game by changing

the value of this number.

MODE #6

TIME PER CREDIT

This adjusts, in seconds, how long each game will last.

The game can be adjusted from 20 to 99 seconds. The

recommended time is 40 seconds.

CUSTOMIZING YOUR GAME

MODE #7

GAME POINTS PER AWARD

This adjusts how many tickets are given away for the

game. The number displayed set the points required to

win an award. Setting this number to “0” will turn off the

dispenser.

MODE #8

NOT USED

MODE #9

NOT USED

MODE #10

JUST FOR PLAYING

This feature is valuable in 2 respects…..

1. This can be set to any value desired, so that if a

player, especially a young child who can not get the

minimum points required to earn awards, can still be

dispensed.

2. This setting can give a predetermined amount of tick-

ets or cards per game, REGARDLESS of points

scored, if the “points per award” and “winner” settings

are set to “0”.

MODE #11

AWARD THRESHOLD

This mode is used to set the minimum number of points

needed to get any awards whatsoever. Set the number to

match the score you wish to achieve before awards are

dispensed. Setting this number to “0” turns the option off.

MODE #12

WINNER AWARDS

This setting is used by itself if you want the WINNER

ONLY to get awards in a multiple player game. The num-

ber of awards dispensed is determined by the number

selected. A setting of “0” will turn off this option. The win-

ner awards are in addition to any other awards being dis-

persed.

MODE #13

NOT USED

MODE #14

ATTRACT MODE

ON / OFF / TYPE

Use this setting to control the type of attract mode you

would like. Setting a “1” gives you attract mode sound

only. Setting a “0” turns the attract mode off.

MODE #15

ATTRACT INTERVAL

This determines the length of time between attract

modes. Change this number to change the amount of

time in MINUTES between attract modes. Setting this

number to “0” turns this option off.

MODE #16

FREE GAME THRESHOLD

This option allows you to select a POINT THRESHOLD,

where a free game will be awarded for the game. Once

this threshold is reached, a FREE GAME will be awarded

to the player, playing the game at that time. The free

game is awarded immediately after completion of the paid

game where the threshold had been broken.

Setting the value of this option to “0”, turns the option off.

Any other value sets that as the threshold value. We rec-

ommend 40 POINTS as a good starting point for the

game.

LINKING STATION I.D.’S

NOTE: FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE INSTRUCTIONS

LISTED BELOW WILL RESULT IN IMPROPER OPERA-

TION OF ANY GAMES WHICH HAVE BEEN LINKED

TOGETHER.

Each linked game must be connected with a modular

phone line. Use no longer than a 12 ft. cord to link the

games together.

Connect the games together by snapping a phone line

jack on the back of the Main PC Board on the first game.

Connect the cord to the jack on the back of the Main PC

Board on the second game. When more than 2 games

are linked, connect another phone cord to the back of the

Main PC Board on the second game and run it to the pre-

ceding game and so on.

9

CUSTOMIZING YOUR GAME

When the linking option is used, each game must have

it’s own unique “I.D. Number” so that the games can prop-

erly link and talk to each other. Enter Mode #19 on all

games, then set a number that is different for each game.

The number used may be 0 through 13. the numbers 14

and 15 are reserved for the Jackpot Marquee. (Sold as a

separate option)

Observe that game I.D.’s on all games are different, then

exit programming mode on all games at the same time.

MODE #20

CREDIT DISCOUNTING

This mode enables the game to give the players an extra

game when multiple coins are inserted. The number

shown will be how many coins must be inserted for an

extra game. Example: setting a “6” would mean that for

every 6 coins inserted, an extra game would be given.

Setting a “0” turns this mode off. The default value for this

mode is”0”.

MODE #21

NOT USED

MODE #22

BEACON LIGHT POINT

THRESHOLD

This option allows you to select a point threshold, where

the optional point beacon light will turn on. Once this point

threshold value is reached, the beacon light will turn on.

Setting the value to “0”turns the option off. Any other

value sets that as the threshold value.

NOTE: WHEN SETTING UP MULTIPLE

GAMES IN THE SAME LOCATION, IT IS A

GOOD IDEA TO TURN THE ATTRACT MODE

OFF ON ALL BUT 1 GAME.

BURN IN SELF TEST MODE

This allows you to enter the BURN-IN SELF TEST

MODE, which can be very handy in problem diagnostics.

To enter this mode, press and hold the GAME SELECT

and START buttons at the same time WHEN IN MODE

#1.

Perform the following tests when in this mode:

1. Press the face panel push buttons to check for their

proper operation. An audible sound will be heard if

working properly.

2. The face panel push buttons should light if they are

working correctly.

3. Move the coin mech micro switch wires. An audible

sound will be heard if they are working correctly.

4. Throw a ball into the basket. If the sensor is working

correctly, an audible sound will be heard.

To exit the self test mode, press the “Counter / Program-

ming” button inside the coin door.

GAME TESTING

It is easy and advisable to test your game after installa-

tion. After the game is set up and all options have been

set up correctly, perform the following tests:

1. Test for proper acceptance of money.

2. Test for proper dispensing of tickets, if you have set

that option.

3. Test for proper game play, including proper scoring.

4. Test for proper retention of game memory, when the

game power is shut off and turned back on.

5. Be sure to check your electronic game counter and

write down any information you may wish to record.

6. When testing linked games, be sure all of the game

scores show up properly.

for this operation.)

• Pull the ball gate from the end by the bearing towards

you. (the front of the game)

• The gear motor can now be pulled away from the re-

taining bracket.

• Remove the two Allen head set screws to remove the

ball gate from the gear motor.

• NOTE: When removing wires from the micro switches

or motor, it is VERY important to make sure all wires

are returned to their proper terminals. Failure to do so

will result in improper operation of the ball gate and

could damage the game. The wires are color coded

so it will be easy to document where each wire goes.

• IMPORTANT: Mark the position of the micro switch

mounting bracket so that the switch actuators will line

up correctly with the cam on the ball gate when the

unit is re-assembled.

• Use thread locking compound on the Allen head set

screws when re-assembling the ball gate to the gear

motor.

• Assemble in reverse order of disassembly. Tighten all

hardware securely.

• Re-test for proper operation

• Temporarily shut off AC power, reconnect battery and

turn AC power back on.

LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT:

• WARNING: TURN OFF GAME POWER BEFORE

REPLACING THE LIGHT BULB.

• Replace the bulb by removing the screws that secure

the control panel to the game. Carefully remove the

control panel, and set it on the front of the game. Re-

place the light bulb and install the control panel to the

game.

REPLACEMENT BULB:

110 WATT ROUGH SERVICE SPOTLIGHT

HOOP SENSOR REPLACEMENT:

• Turn off all AC power to the game and unplug the

battery back-up circuitry. (disconnect the 2 pin mate-

lock connector from the PC Board)

• Standing in the ball return tray, unscrew the (2)

screws and remove the bracket that contains the sen-

sor from the bracket on the back of the hoop.

OPERATIONAL BACKGROUND

The following will outline the basic operating principles of

the NBA HOOPS™ basketball game.

The game incorporates a Reflex Photoelectric polarized

sensor detection system for counting balls that go through

the hoop.

The ball gate uses micro switches to determine position-

ing of the gate, which are activated by the cam on the ball

gate shaft.

The gear motor uses a combination of hardware and soft-

ware control to protect against over current damage.

When an over current condition is detected, the motor will

shut off automatically. The game microprocessor will then

decide whether or not the motor should be turned on. It

will also determine at that time which way the motor

should run.

MECHANICAL REPAIR

IMPORTANT: USE ONLY ICE REPLACEMENT PARTS

WHEN SERVICING YOUR GAME. USING NON-ICE AP-

PROVED PARTS COULD VOID YOUR WARRANTY,

FUSES

Fuses are the first items that should be checked when the

game is inoperable or works incorrectly.

There are 5 fuses in the game. Two fuses are located in

the electronics control panel on a fuse block to the right of

the fan, above the transformer.

To check or service the fuses, FIRST REMOVE THE

POWER CORD. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT

IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Using a small flat

blade screwdriver, pry the fuse from the fuse block. Pull

the fuse from the fuse block and test the fuses. Be sure to

replace the fuses with the same type and value.

• Disconnect the single mate lock connectors from the

gray sensor cable behind the backboard. Remove the

gray wire feeding through the backboard harness

hole. Remove the sensor assembly. Note how the

sensor cable is attached.

• Remove the sensor from the bracket by pushing the

(2) tabs on the top of the sensor, through the bracket.

Snap in the new sensor.

• Reattach the sensor bracket to the hoop bracket and

reconnect the sensor cable. Be sure to route the sen-

sor cable in the same manner.

MECHANICAL MAINTENANCE

IMPORTANT: FOLLOW THE SUGGESTED MAINTE-

NANCE TO ENSURE THE BEST OPERATION POSSI-

BLE FOR YOUR GAME.

GENERAL CLEANING

Clean the surfaces of the cabinet and decals with a com-

mercial cleaner such as 409™ or Fantastic™. Do NOT

use cleaners such as Wildcat pinball cleaner or alcohol. It

can take the finish off of the decals. Use Pledge™ on all

plastic and painted surfaces. This product works

especially well on clear plastics. Please note that other

spray polishes do not work as well.

BASKETBALLS

The basketballs should be checked every week for proper

inflation. A bicycle tire pump and inflating needle can be

purchased at any sporting goods store and most large

discount stores.

Keeping the balls properly inflated will make it more diffi-

cult to pull them past the ball gate. It will also create more

realistic basketball action when interacting with the hoop.

Any 8” basketball will work with this game.

NOTE: DO NOT OVER-INFLATE THE BASKETBALLS.

THIS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE BALL AND

SHORTEN THE LIFE OF THE BALLS.

ELECTRONIC AND

ELECTRICAL REPAIR

The following section will describe repair procedures and

trouble shooting hints for the game electronics.

Please read the section “Operational Background” in the

beginning of Maintenance and Trouble Shooting to get a

13

MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING

There are 3 fuses located on the Main PC Board. These

fuses protect the low voltage sides of the game, the 5 volt

and 12 volt sides, AC & DC. Be sure game power is off

when checking or replacing these fuses. Replace the

Main PC Board fuses with the original type and value.

USE SLO-BLO MDQ TYPE fuses only.

Other types of slo-blo fuses may cause unexpected prob-

lems with the game.

TRANSFORMER

ALL AC POWER MUST BE REMOVED FROM THE

GAME WHEN SERVICING THIS COMPONENT. IT IS A

GOOD IDEA TO ACTUALLY REMOVE THE POWER

CORD FROM THE WALL OR FLOOR OUTLET WHEN

CHANGING THE TRANSFORMER.

CAREFULLY document where each color wire goes BE-

FORE removing any wires.

Remove the 4 screws that hold the transformer to the

game frame.

Replace and reconnect the transformer.

TAKE ANY FAST-ONS THAT WERE ON THE OLD

TRANSFORMER COVERING THE UNUSED AC TERMI-

NALS OFF AND TRANSFER THEM TO THE NEW

TRANSFORMER. THIS IS NECESSARY AS THE LEADS

ON THE TRANSFORMER HAVE POWER ON THEM.

CHANGING AC VOLTAGES

When you receive your game from the factory, it should

be set to the proper AC voltage. If for some reason how-

ever, it needs to be set to a different AC voltage, follow

these directions.

Unplug the game from the AC outlet.

The AC input taps for the transformer are located on the

front left hand side of the transformer, as viewed from the

opening of the access door.

The AC taps can be further identified by the fact that there

are 5 taps in a row. (The only place on the transformer

where there are 5 taps in a row.)

The bottom tap is the 0 volt tap. One side of the AC line

should always be left attached to this terminal.

The 5 taps FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE TRANS-

FORMER UP are as follows:

240 VAC

210 VAC

115 VAC

90 VAC

0 VAC

These numbers are also indicated on the transformer it-

self.

The AC wire that is on one of the above taps is the only

wire you should move. Please use a blank fast-on, on any

open terminals, to protect against shock hazards.

MAIN PC BOARD

IMPORTANT: BEFORE REMOVING THE MAIN PC

BOARD OR CHANGING THE MEMORY BATTERY, GO

INTO THE OPTIONS MODE AND RECORD YOUR

COUNTER AND GAME SETTINGS, SO THEY CAN BE

RE-ENTERED AFTER SERVICING HAS BEEN COM-

PLETED.

The Main PC Board is located on the back of the Control

Panel. Remove the 3 bolts that hold the panel to the

game and flip the Control Panel out.

Remove all AC power before removing the Main PC

Board.

Disconnect all mate-lock connectors from the PC Board.

Remove the 6 retaining fasteners and remove the PC

Board.

Install in the reverse order.

If you are installing a new memory battery or new PC

Board, after installation, reset all custom game program-

ming into system memory.

BALL SENSORS

Proper operation of the Basketball sensor is crucial to

the proper operation of the game. If you find that there is

no scoring or sound when a basket is made during a nor-

mal game then you should follow the Sensor trouble-

shooting hints provided below.

The basketball sensor is an optical device that uses a

90-degree reflector to minimize changes in ambient light

conditions of your game during the day. The system com-

prises 4 total components for proper operation. The first

component is the main board, second is the harness that

connects the main board to the third component, the opti-

cal sensor, and finally the reflector. All of these compo-

nents need to work properly for scoring to be achieved

during game play.

The optical sensor transmits a polarized beam of near-

infrared light to the reflector, which turns the light 90 de-

grees and returns the reflected beam back to the sensor.

This sensor is located on the back of the hoop. You will

find that there is a visible red light that is facing toward the

14

MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING

player and points to the reflector. On the back of the sen-

sor you will find another light that indicates the status of

the sensor. There are 4 conditions that this light can be in.

Condition 1 is a solid red light. This is the normal con-

dition indicating that all is well with the sensor. It is trans-

mitting light and receiving enough light to operate prop-

erly. You should then block the light by placing a basket-

ball in the hoop and the light should go green. If the light

doesn't turn green then you probably have a bad sensor.

If the light goes green and you do not get any scoring dur-

ing the game then you should look into the main board or

harness for the problem.

Condition 2 is a blinking red light. This condition is a

fringing light condition. This means that the sensor has

enough light, but just barely, to work properly. The game

will probably still work in this state but needs to be ad-

justed. See adjusting of the reflector below.

Condition 3 is a green light indicating the sensor be-

lieves it is being blocked all the time. It was not blocked

from power up or condition 4 would occur. This is gener-

ally a bad sensor.

Condition 4 is no light at all. This means that the sen-

sor may not have power so you should check the harness

for proper connections. It can also mean that the sensor

has never seen a beam from itself.

Adjusting of the sensor. A blank white piece of paper is

necessary to adjust the sensor. You place the paper in

front of the reflector at the other end of the hoop. You

should see a red circle of light. This circle indicates the

target of the optic sensor. The circle should be pointed to

the middle of the reflector strip if the paper was not in the

way. If it is not, then you need to bend the bracket holding

the sensor up (towards the hoop) until it is. When you re-

move the paper you should see a solid red light on the

back of the sensor. This indicates all is well. Proceed to

testing the sensor by placing a ball in the hoop and see-

ing that the sensor indicates green. If so then continue to

test the sensor by playing a game. If scoring doesn't oc-

cur properly then look to the main board or harness for

the problem.

TIONS IN THIS SECTION, REFER TO THE ACCOMPA-

NYING MANUAL FOR YOUR PARTICULAR PRODUCT,

OR CALL OUR SERVICE DEPARTMENT.

NORMAL BUSINESS HOURS ARE:

MONDAY – FRIDAY, 9:00 AM TO 6:00 PM EST

TICKET DISPENSER

Refer to the supplied service manual for all information

other than software settings.

The ticket dispenser comes pre-set from the factory to

dispense 1 ticket for every 5 points scored. In addition to

this, if the game player did not score enough points to get

1 ticket, the game is preset to give the player 1 ticket “just

for playing”.

These settings can be adjusted by changing the ticket

options in the “GAME OPTIONS” mode. If you change the

memory battery or Main PC Board, you may have to reset

the value for these options.

You can also set the game up so that the winner of MUL-

TIPLE player games ONLY, wins tickets or that a certain

amount of points must be scored BEFORE ANY tickets

will be dispensed. This is the threshold option.

DOLLAR BILL VALIDATOR

Refer to the supplied manual for all information other than

software settings.

The validator normally requires no adjustments other than

checking to see that the proper voltage is present. This

Validator runs on 12 volt DC power, with a minimum of

11.5 volts DC. The Validator will not work correctly with

voltages below that specified.

The validator may work improperly or not at all if it is not

grounded properly.

The unit should be cleaned periodically to ensure proper

operation. Blow out as much dirt as possible. Then use a

cotton swab (Q-Tip) to get into the front opening to re-

move any remaining dirt or debris. Clean the stacker belts

with a rubber rejuvenator. Clean any other dirt from the

unit with isopropyl alcohol.

That game comes from the factory pre-set at 2 credits per

bill. You can change this by entering the “GAME OP-

TIONS” screen. (see GAME OPTIONS settings section

for more information)

ABOUT LINKING

With LINKING it will be possible for your customers to

enjoy exciting Head to Head competition when two or

more NBA HOOPS™ games are connected together. In

fact, you can link as many as fourteen NBA HOOPS™

games together.

Game linking is accomplished through the “Link” button

located in the upper right hand corner of the control panel.

When enough money is inserted into the game to create

one or more credits, the “Link” button will begin to flash. If

a player on another game pushes their “Link” button, the

games are now linked together. Once the games are

linked together, they become 1 player only games. When

any of the players push the “Start” button, the game be-

gins.

When the game is over, the top four players are ranked

on the display. The game spotlight will flash for the win-

ner.

TICKET SETTINGS

Ticket settings will work in the same fashion as a regular

NBA HOOPS™ game. Be sure all of the games linked

together are set EXACTLY the same. Using different set-

tings could yield unexpected results.

NOTE: WHEN LINKING 1 OR MORE

GAMES TOGETHER, IT IS ADVISIBLE

TO TURN THE ATTRACT MODE OFF

ON ALL BUT 1 GAME. THIS WILL

ELIMINATE STRANGE SOUNDS FROM

MORE THAN 1 ATTRACT MODE PLAY-

ING, BUT NOT AT THE SAME TIME.
