NOTE:
(FOR TOURNAMENT OWNERS ONLY)
Your Tournament cabinet has been checked at
the factory prior to shipping and should be
ready to plug-in and play. However,
connections or components often come loose
during shipping. Make sure you check all of
the connectors, wires and harnesses on your
cabinet before turning the game on. You may
skip to LED Sign on page 10.
Also, be sure to check the voltage level of the
power supply from the circuit board. For best
results, make sure the voltage reading is set to
5.2 volts on the circuit board, not on the power
supply or the JAMMA connector. See JAMMA
Harness Connection on page 34

Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 2

When selecting a cabinet, keep this in mind:

The Cabinet
Power Requirements
Make sure the game you have chosen
to convert is able to supply all the
required voltages for GOLDEN TEE
'98.

A cabinet with a 25" monitor and a large control panel
will allow you to mount the trackball farther from the
monitor. This prevents players hands from hitting the
monitor glass when rolling the trackball forward, and
will earn better than a smaller control panel with a
smaller monitor.
1.

•

•

+5 VDC 5 amps
+12 VDC 2 amps
WARNING!!!
The output level of many "regulated" switching
power supplies actually vary with load. For
this reason, the power supply from an old
game may not be correctly adjusted for
GOLDEN TEE '98. This makes the existing
power supply inappropriate and hazardous to
your new game. Therefore, it is very important
to adjust the +5 VDC supply WITHOUT
connecting the PCB, then readjusting it later,
after the PCB has been installed. Measure
power on the PCB, on an IC. Damage will
occur if the power supply is outside the
acceptable limits (between 4.8 and 5.5 VDC.)

Cabinet Selection
You can choose either a new cabinet or a
used cabinet for your GOLDEN TEE ‘99
game. Reusing a cabinet is by far the
most cost-effective way to maximize the
return of your initial investment. In either
case, all you need to provide is the cabinet
with a power supply and monitor. We
provide the rest. The end result is a new
game at a very low cost.
NOTE:
It is recommended that a large control panel
with a 25" monitor, like those on a 4-player
cabinet, be used for your GOLDEN TEE '99.

3 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

Main Logic Board(s)
Control Panel
Monitor Plexiglas
Marquee
Cabinet Graphics

Thoroughly clean out your cabinet. Remove all the
old buttons, joysticks and wires from the control
panel. DO NOT remove monitor and speaker wires.

Remove the old graphics and adhesive from the
control panel, and the side of the cabinet. Remove
adhesive with solvent.

For a fresh look, painting is highly recommended.
Spray painting gives a better finish, but if an air
brush or paint sprayer is unavailable, a roller is
second best. Remember to cover all exposed
surfaces not to be painted.

Remember, spending time on the cabinet's
appearance (i.e., marquee, control panel, and
cabinet graphics) will raise your profits with the
introduction of a new game package, especially if
the cabinet looks clean and new.

The "new game look" should always apply to the
inside of your game as well. A few wire ties and
shrink tubing on your harness, some fastening
hardware on your subassemblies, and a sweep with
the vacuum cleaner will ensure that glitches do not
occur.

Monitor Requirements
GOLDEN TEE ‘99 requires a monitor
in a horizontal mount raster scan with
negative composite SYNC. It can be
difficult to change the monitor from
vertical to a horizontal unit, therefore,
installation will be easier if you choose a horizontal
mount cabinet.

Remove the following from the cabinet:

Control Panel
Mounting the trackball correctly and securely is very
important for the profitability of your new game.
Follow these instructions carefully for mounting the
trackball to: 1) a metal control panel; 2) a wooden
control with routing; 3) or a wooden control panel
without routing. (Refer to template inserts which came
with your new kit.)

Trackball Preparation
When making the hole for the
trackball, follow the instructions,
starting on the next page, for the type
of control panel you will be using.
NOTE:
When installing the trackball, make sure the
trackball is in the right orientation. (Refer to
picture below.)

CONTROL PANEL LAYOUT
(Trackball MUST be centered on the control panel)

NOTE:
Installing the trackball as far away from the
monitor as possible will prevent players hands
from hitting the monitor glass when rolling the
trackball forward.

NOTE:
The trackball mounting bolts may become
loose over time, which may present a danger
to your players. Make sure the bolt heads are
flat and secure on the control panel surface
and that the bolts are tightly secured. It is
highly recommended that a nylon-insert
locking nut be added and tightened against the
existing nut of each carriage bolt to ensure a
tight, secure fit.

TRACKBALL ORIENTATION
(NOT DRAWN TO SCALE)

IMPORTANT!:
The supplied trackball comes equipped with a
grounding cable. This cable must be
connected to field ground to protect the
trackball P.C. boards from becoming damaged
by electro-static discharge.

Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 4

To mount trackball to a metal control
panel use Trackball Mounting
Template #1

To mount trackball to a wooden
control panel with routing capability
use Trackball Mounting Template #2

Fill any existing holes in the metal control panel.

Fill any existing holes in the wooden control panel.

Place and secure TEMPLATE #1 to your control
panel in the desired location.

Place and secure Template #2 to your control panel
in the desired location.

NOTE: The trackball should be as far away
from the monitor as possible.

Carefully drill the holes for the ball and the
mounting bolts using the template as a guide.

Carefully cut the hole for the trackball in the shape
indicated on the template.

Remove template and file down any rough edges.

Drill the mounting holes indicated.

See Graphic Overlays section on page 6 on how to
install the graphics.

Mount the trackball under the control panel using
the 4 carriage bolts. It is highly recommended that
a nylon-insert locking nut be added to the nut of
each carriage bolt to ensure a tight, secure fit.
Loose bolts can create unsafe conditions for
game play.

Next route out the shaded area indicated on
TEMPLATE #2, 1/16" deep. Use a 1/2" Rabbiting
Bit for best results. This is so the supplied metal
plate will be flush with the control panel surface.

Remove template and file down any rough edges.

See Graphic Overlays section on page 6 on how to
install the graphics.

Mount the trackball to the metal plate using the 4
carriage bolts supplied. Then mount the metal
plate to the wooden control panel. It is highly
recommended that a nylon-insert locking nut be
added to the nut of each carriage bolt to ensure a
tight, secure fit. Loose bolts can create unsafe
conditions for game play.

NOTE: Be sure the trackball is mounted as
shown in the diagram on page 4.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the trackball. It will
warp and cause the trackball to not operate
correctly.
NOTE: The supplied metal plate is not needed
with metal control panels.
NOTE: Be sure to mount the trackball so as
much of the ball is exposed as possible.

NOTE: Be sure the trackball is mounted as
shown in the diagram on page 4.

Securely fasten the trackball grounding wires to
Field Ground in your cabinet. This step is
important in reducing static buildup and discharge
caused by the trackball.
If using Plexiglas on your control panel, it is highly
recommended that a 3-1/2" hole be cut in the
Plexiglas for the trackball. This allows for players
to use the full height of the trackball. Carefully file
and smooth the edges of the hole in the Plexiglas so
players do not cut their hands when playing.

NOTE: Do not over-tighten the trackball. It will
warp and cause the trackball to not operate
correctly.
NOTE: Be sure to mount the trackball so as
much of the ball is exposed as possible.

Securely fasten the trackball grounding wires to
Field Ground in your cabinet. This step is
important in reducing static buildup and discharge
caused by the trackball.

10. If using Plexiglas on your control panel, it is highly
recommended that a 3-1/2" hole be cut in the
Plexiglas for the trackball. This allows for players
to use the full height of the trackball. Carefully file
and smooth the edges of the hole in the Plexiglas so
players do not cut their hands when playing.
5 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

To mount trackball to a wooden
control panel without routing capability
use Trackball Mounting Template #3
1.

Fill any existing holes in the wooden control panel.

Place and secure Template #3 to your control panel
in the desired location.

Button Preparation
1.

When making the holes for the buttons,
DO NOT use the Function Labels to
outline any new holes. The Function
Labels are designed to fit right over the
buttons when installed on the control
panel. If the labels are used as a
template the holes will be too big, and the buttons
will fall through. Instead, use the labels as a guide
to where you want to drill your new holes, and then
cut a 1-1/8" hole in the center of where the labels
are to be placed. DO NOT stick the labels to the
panel at this time.

Drill or punch the holes marked for buttons or
bolts. Use a chassis or sheet metal punch for best
results on button holes.

NOTE: The trackball should be as far away
from the monitor as possible.

Carefully cut the hole for the trackball in the shape
indicated on the template. The trackball should fit
the hole shape exactly.

Drill the mounting holes as indicated.

Remove template and file down any rough edges.

Use a file to smooth any rough edges on the holes.

Using the Trackball Orientation Template, cut a 3”
hole in the Plexigals overlay to fit over the
trackball. Be sure to include holes for the buttons
and all of the mounting bolts. Carefully file and
smooth the cut edges so players do not cut their
hands when playing.

Fill any old and unused holes with wood, resin, or a
metal plate.

It is recommended that you cover your control
panel with Plexiglas. Now would be a good time to
cut it to fit while the dimensions and tools are at
hand.

See Graphic Overlays section on page 6 on how to
install the graphics.

Insert the trackball into the newly cut hole. Place
the Plexiglas overlay on top of the control panel.
Place the supplied metal plate under the trackball
and use the carraige bolts to secure it to the control
panel. The metal plate below and the Plexiglas
above will secure the trackball into position. It is
highly recommended that a nylon-insert locking nut
be added to the nut of each carriage bolt to ensure a
tight, secure fit. Loose bolts can create unsafe
conditions for game play.

Graphic Overlays
GOLDEN TEE ‘99 comes equipped with graphics that
will accommodate a variety of existing game cabinets.

Control Panel Overlay Installation
1.

Make sure the control panel is clean and free from
dust, grease, metal filings, and sawdust. The
background overlay provided with the game is
oversized to accommodate most control panel
sizes. Center the background overlay on the
control panel surface. Be sure to leave enough
excess material above and below the control panel
in order to trim it evenly.

Remove the protective backing from the
background overlay. Center the background
overlay over the control panel and place down
gently, making sure to keep it square. Using your
hands, press down firmly, starting from the center
and smooth the background overlay outward,
making sure all bubbles have been pressed out for a
clean, flat surface.

NOTE: Be sure the trackball is mounted as
shown in the diagram on page 4.
NOTE: Do not over-tighten the trackball. It will
warp and cause the trackball to not operate
correctly.
NOTE: Be sure to mount the trackball so as
much of the ball is exposed as possible.

Securely fasten the trackball grounding wires to
Field Ground in your cabinet. This step is
important in reducing static buildup and discharge
caused by the trackball.

Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 6

Using a sharp razor knife, trim any excess from the
background overlay. Carefully pierce through the
overlay above each control panel hole that you
have marked. Cut out material covering the predrilled holes with the razor knife. Be sure to cut
the background overlay above each hole and trim
cleanly and evenly.

Wiring and Hardware Assembly
REMEMBER! DO NOT WORK WITH ANY PART OF THIS
SYSTEM PLUGGED IN (Lights, Monitor, or Power Supply).
NOTE:
All switch wires used in this game need to be
wired to the normally open connection on the
switches. Each switch requires a ground wire
on the common connector and the appropriate
control or switch wire on the other normally
open connector of the switch.

Function Labels Overlay Installation
Line up the supplied function labels with the
corresponding control panel holes. Remove the backing
and carefully press into place. Be sure they are straight.
Attach the HOOK/SWING reference diagram above
the trackball label. If your control panel is too narrow
to fit the reference diagram, mount the diagram under
the monitor glass on the bezel. Refer to the diagrams
below.

Control Panel Assembly
1.

Install the trackball and buttons on the control
panel by following the detailed instructions
beginning on page 4. The two red buttons are used
for FACE LEFT and FACE RIGHT. The white
button is used as the START button.
NOTE:
If you want your new game to earn money, you
must install the trackball correctly.

FUNCTION LABEL LAYOUT #1

If you are using Plexiglas for added protection,
don't forget to place it on the panel before inserting
the buttons.

Wire the trackball and buttons using the JAMMA
Harness Connection and Cabinet Schematic table on
page 34. Connect the trackball using the supplied
trackball cable into PLAYER 1 on the PCs.

or put the HOOK/SWING Reference diagram on the
monitor bezel.

IMPORTANT!:

FUNCTION LABEL LAYOUT #2

The supplied trackball comes equipped with a
grounding cable. This cable must be
connected to field ground to protect the
trackball P.C. boards from becoming damaged
by electro-static discharge.

Marquee Installation

Printed Circuit Board (PCB)

If your cabinet needs a new marquee glass, determine
the correct size and cut the Plexiglas (supplied) to fit.
Using the old marquee glass as a template, center the
Plexiglas on your new marquee graphics, making sure
that all the printed images will be visible. Using a razor
knife, score the new marquee deeply, following the
edges of the old glass. Carefully break off the styrene.
Be sure the light behind the marquee works and that the
glass is clean on both sides. Now install the marquee
graphics and glass securely.

Mount the PCB to the side of the cabinet with the
connector toward the top of the drawer. This will keep
the wire harness from slipping off due to vibration.
Mark and drill pilot holes (3/32") onto the cabinet side,
being careful not to drill through to the outside. Attach
the PCB standoffs to the cabinet using wood screws and
spacers, snug but not too tight or the board may warp
or crack. Be sure the board is not being flexed in any
way.

7 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

Wire Harness
WARNING!

Power Wires
1.

Connect the wires that are designated for your
power supply. You will need a supply of +5 vdc,
and +12 vdc. The +5 vdc must be regulated to
within 5% (+ or - 0.25) . The +12 vdc may be
unregulated but should not stray too far or the
sound may be affected. If the cabinet's supply does
not provide these voltages, it will have to be
replaced. A switching-type supply is
recommended.

You will notice that you have more than one wire
for each voltage. Use all wires supplied on the
harness. This will ensure better power transmission
and prevent overloading of the edge connector
pads.

Tin all power supply wires before connecting them
to the power supply. Loose strands may short out
the supply. For best results, connect spade lugs to
the ends of the power wires and attach to the screw
terminals of the power supply.

Be sure that all power is
OFF before connecting
power supply.

If you are installing GOLDEN TEE ‘99 into a
Dynamo cabinet with a pre-installed JAMMA
harness, you will notice that it does not have a wire
for the test switch. You will have to add a contact
to the edge connector at the proper position
(position 15). Some cabinets (Dynamo included)
have only one coin switch input and the coin
switches are wired together. Connect the
designated wires to the coin switches separately.
Attach the wire harness connector to the PCB. Be
sure it is mounted correctly.
WARNING!!!
Make sure you have identified PIN 1 on the
connector before powering up. Plugging the
JAMMA connector in backwards will cause
damage to the PCB.

It is best to use connectors (not supplied) whenever
joining a set of harness wires to a subassembly. If
you choose to solder wires together, follow this
procedure:
•

Strip off about ½" of insulation from the wire.

•

Slide a piece of heat-shrink tubing over the
end.

•

Do not leave a lot of excess wire spooled up in
your cabinet. Cut the wires to the length you
need plus a few extra inches. Leave enough
for proper cable dressing. Do not make it
stretch across the inside of the cabinet.

Solder the new wire to the original wire. Use a
straight in-line splice.

Monitor Wires
You will be connecting the RED, GREEN, and BLUE
video drives along with the composite SYNC and video
GROUND wires.

Speaker Wires
Connect the speaker wires paying attention to
their polarity.

NOTE:
If your cabinet has two speakers, connect
both. If they are 8 or 16 ohm speakers,
connect them in parallel, if they are 4 ohm,
connect them in series.

Position speakers as far from the monitor as possible. If
placed too close, the speaker's magnet may deflect the
monitor and cause strange coloration, which can usually
be corrected by degaussing the monitor. Make sure
everything else in the cabinet is attached securely for
the same reason.

SYNC
This is the recommended approach for a WellsGardener monitor and should work with some others as
well.
Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 8

If your monitor does not have a composite SYNC input
but has separate horizontal and vertical SYNC inputs,
try connecting the composite SYNC signal from the
PCB to the negative horizontal SYNC signal on the
monitor. This should produce a satisfactory result,
although some adjustment of the monitor's SYNC
controls may be necessary.

Coin Doors, Test Switch, Service Button,
and Volume Control Panel
1.

Mars Light Hookup (optional)
Equipment required
A MARS light police beacon and a 3 amp 120 volt AC
solid state relay with a 2.5 to 8 volt control line.
1.

Connect a wire from PIN 2 of the PCB’s ticket
connector to the positive control line of the relay.

Connect a wire from PIN 3 of the PCB’s ticket
connector to the negative control line of the relay.

Wire the coin doors and the test / service switch(es)
as per the JAMMA Harness Connection and
Cabinet Schematic table on page 34.

WARNING!
Make sure all power is OFF before installation

Connect the door lamps to the +12 vdc supply.
Some games have separate power supply outputs
for the lamps.
Install a test switch somewhere convenient inside
the coin door area. This switch allows you to enter
adjustables, run diagnostics, and see or clear audits.
Make it readily accessible through the coin door.
Wire it to the Test wire on the JAMMA Harness.
Install a service switch (not included) somewhere
convenient inside the coin door area. This switch
allows you to give credits to players without
affecting the game's credit audits or coin meters.
Example: A player puts in a coin and gets no credit,
the operator can then push the service button and a
credit is given to the player without affecting the
game's audits and coin meter.
GOLDEN TEE ‘99 has the ability to adjust volume
at any time during a game. Install two push button
switches (not included) inside the coin door for
easy access. Connect the switches to the JAMMA
harness. Refer to the JAMMA Harness Connection
and Cabinet Schematic table on page 34.
GOLDEN TEE ‘99 is also capable of running a
Mars Light or other external signal, which will be
activated if the game is running a special Hole-InOne contest.

9 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

The hot AC line in should connect to one side of
the light and the return should connect to the AC
input of the relay.

From the AC output of the relay, connect a wire to
the other side of the light.
WARNING!
Make sure all wires and connections are
securely fastened, with no loose strands of
wire. Improper or sloppy connections can
cause serious injury or fire.

The Hole-In-One contest is turned ON in the
Operator Adjustables in order for the light to
activate when a hole-in-one is made.
NOTE:
Mars Light will only work for sound PROMS
1.0 and above.

Final Check
1.

Check the game inside and out for any
imperfections. Secure any loose wiring or
fastening hardware.

Make sure the coin door is tight and the coin mechs
are well adjusted.

Make sure all assemblies are firmly attached.
Anything that is not mounted securely will rattle
when the game is played. This game makes use of
low-frequency sounds which can cause any loose
joints to rattle.

LED Sign (Tournament Version Only)
The LED message sign is folded back for safe shipping
purposes. Before you start your game, lift the LED sign
forward until it is in an upright position. Make sure the
cables connecting the sign to the cabinet do not get
caught or pinched in the access hole. Attach the metal
support brackets, found inside the cash box, to the back
of the sign and cabinet. This bracket will prohibit the
sign from falling backward. Make sure to orient the
bracket so the V-shaped notch lines up with the hinge
on the bottom of the sign box. Use the supplied short
screws to attach the top of the bracket to the sign box.
Use the longer screws to attach the bracket to the
cabinet .

Set up your ITS-compatible Golden Tee ‘99 Golf
cabinet as you would any other video game. Be
sure the LED sign and modem are properly
connected to the PCB and the modem is on. Use
the illustrations on the next page to verify proper
connections.

Make sure the supplied, long, round telephone
cable is plugged into the phone jack marked LINE
on the modem. Thread the other end of the cable
through the mouse hole below the back door. Be
sure to loop the cable through the cable clip for
extra strain relief.

Connect the end of the long cable into any existing
telephone jack. Use the included splitter if you are
connecting to a jack already in use. If no jack is
available, you will need to install a phone jack,
preferably near the cabinet.

Turn on the game cabinet and watch the Attract
mode. The game will automatically attempt an
initialization call. Pay attention to the various
screen messages. and listen carefully to the modem
for a dial tone, dialing sounds and the modem
connect sound as the game makes its call.

Automatic installation is complete when the screen
displays a SUCCESSFUL message. If an
unsuccessful message appears, enter Test Mode by
pressing the button inside the coin door. A second
attempt to call will begin when you exit Test Mode
by pressing the START button. If your first few
attempts to call are unsuccessful, check the
Troubleshooting section in this manual.

NOTE:
Make sure the brackets are oriented correctly.
Mounting the brackets backwards or using the
wrong screws will allow the mounting screws
to drive too far into the sign box and may
damage the sign's electronics.

Connecting The Phone Line

(Tournament Version Only)
In order for your game to join the tournament, you must
connect the game to a regular telephone line. The ITS
requires a regular phone line that gives a dial tone.
Phone systems that are not direct outside lines may not
work.

NOTE:
If you are unable to get your game to complete
a successful call, contact your distributor or
the Incredible Technologies Technical
Department.

After your successful phone call, the game is now
connected to the Tournament System and ready for
public play! Tournament information will appear
on the LED sign and promotional materials will be
sent from the ITS, for display at each location.
IMPORTANT:
Fill out the ITS Game Initialization Forms for
each cabinet and location. Fax or mail the
Initialization Forms to I.T. to validate your
game. Your game will NOT access the
tournament if these forms are not received.

Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 10

Node Connections
If you are planning to place more than one tournament
game in a location, you may want to connect them
together so all of the ITS machines share the same
phone line. Follow the directions below to correctly
daisy-chain your tournament cabinets together.

Phone Connections
Connecting to the PCB

ITS games can be connected together and share one
phone line. All of your game cabinets will require
operating modems. Connect the first game cabinet up to
the phone line following the directions listed under
Connecting The Phone Line on page 10.
From the first cabinet, connect the long round telephone
cable, supplied with the game, to the jack on the modem
marked PHONE. Connect the other end of this cable
into the modem of the next cabinet in line. The cable
connects to the jack marked LINE on the modem. If a
third cabinet is to be connected, attach another
telephone cable to the PHONE jack from the second
machine and connect the other end to the LINE jack on
the third machine. Repeat this sequence until all of
your tournament machines are daisy-chained together.

Connecting to the Modem

All ITS-compatible games will have the ability to be
connected together in a location. Even if each machine
is a different game running a different tournament, only
one phone line will be necessary for all of the data to be
transferred.
NOTE:
Because the node connection is a daisy chain,
it is very important that all connected units be
in operation. If one of the nodes is turned off
or out of service, the nodes connected after
that machine will not transfer their data.

Connecting to the Wall

4 Initial Power-Up
1.

Try all coin switches. Drop quarters or tokens
through to check the coin mechs. Insert a dollar
bill into the bill validator and listen for the credits
to ring up. Make sure the game is adding credits.
You can use the PLAYER CONTROL TEST by
pressing the test switch and entering the SYSTEM
TESTS MENU on page 24. Do all of the controls
work? Try playing the game with the volume up
and listen for rattling as you play. Tighten anything
that is making noise.

Upon initial power-up, the game will initialize to
factory default settings. These settings affect game
elements such as number of credits per coin,
difficulty settings, etc. The OPERATOR
ADJUSTABLES MODE section will describe how
to alter these settings and view the system audits or
run system tests.

Connect the JAMMA Harness.
WARNING!!!
Make sure the harness is plugged in correctly.
Damage to the PCB will occur if the JAMMA
connector is plugged in wrong.

Connect the supplied phone cable to a phone jack.
(Tournament Version Only)

Plug in the game and turn it ON.

Look and smell for smoke (TURN IT OFF
IMMEDIATELY IF ANY IS NOTICED).
NOTE:
Use the Voltage Adjust Test on page 27 to
adjust your power supply. The ideal reading
should be 5.2 volts on the circuit board. This
is very important for your game to perform
correctly. The voltage should be checked and
adjusted regularly for best game performance.

Make sure the LED's on the PCB are flashing. If
not, something is wrong, turn off the game.

Listen for sound. Sounds should be heard in the
attract mode.

How is the picture? Is it centered? Is it too bright?
Is it in focus? Adjust your monitor to get the best
picture possible.
NOTE:
Check your monitor manual to make
adjustments. Some test patterns are available
through the game's system tests by pressing
the Test switch. Use them when making any
adjustments. (See System Tests Menu on
page 24. Proper monitor adjustment is very
important.)

10. If you wish to automatically run a series of system
tests, hold down the START button when you
power up the game cabinet. The game will
automatically perform the FAST GROM, VIDEO
& PALETTE RAM and sound tests, and end on the
player control test screen. This is a good, quick
way to check the integrity of your PCB.

5 Dip Switch Settings
The SW1-Dip switches can be found on the main PCB
near the JAMMA connector.
Dip switch 4 (ON): Always "ON" (DEFAULT)
Dip switch 4 (OFF):
*** NOT USED ***

NOTE:
For Cocktail tables, dip switches 2 and 3 must
be set to OFF.

There are also SW2-Dip switches near the flashing
green LED. Switches #1 and #2 must be "ON" and
switches #3 and #4 should be "OFF"

OPERATOR ADJUSTABLES is used for
customizing your game for your location. Some of the
features in Operator Adjustables are number of coins
per game, sounds on or off when no one is playing,
difficulty settings, etc. These do not effect tournament
play.
GAME AUDITS allows you to check your game's
overall earnings, game times, game scores, etc. The
Audits can be reset through this menu as well.
TOURNAMENT MENU offers adjustables and
settings for low-level tournaments settings.

NOTE:
If you used SW1-DIP switch 1 to enter the
OPERATOR MODE MENU, you will need to
flip SW1-DIP switch 1 back to the ON position
in order to return to the game.

When in OPERATOR MODE, the game's software
version and ITS ID Number are always displayed at
the top of each screen.

than the MAXIMUM COUNT sets the game alarm
counter. Each count represents about 4 milliseconds.
If two game alarms occur then the game halts and

MODEM CONNECT TIMEOUT is used to adjust
the amount of time the modem remains on line in order
to complete a phone call. If you notice your game
timing out before a connected call is completed, you
may wish to increase this setting, to allow for longer
connect time. The default setting is 1:30.
DISPLAY UPLOAD DIAGNOSTICS will display debugging code on the screen during a phone call. This
setting should remain on NO.
DISABLE ITS ACCESS will completely disable the
game from trying to make a call. To avoid losing your
tournament capability, this setting should remain on
NO.

APPENDIX C
ITS Tournament Overview
The ITS, or International Tournament System , is a networked system of game machines that are hooked up to a
central computer via normal telephone lines. Each dedicated tournament game contains special tournament software and
communications hardware that offers players a choice of regular or tournament play. Tournament play allows players
from all over the U.S. to compete for prizes. Various skill-based tournaments will be held throughout the year, offering
challenges and prizes to players across the country.
The ITS was designed to be as hands-free as possible for the operator and location. Each machine has special
communications hardware that easily hooks up to a normal telephone jack. Each game machine is programmed to make a
short, toll-free phone call during off hours. The toll-free number that the game dials costs nothing to the operator or
location. The tournament machines call the ITS central computer and download statistics from that day's tournament
play. During the same call, the central computer sends the new tournament leaders, previously gathered from all of the
games in the tournament, back to the game machine. Then, throughout the day, the new national and local tournament
leaders are viewed on each game monitor during attract sequences.
The ITS is capable of supporting over 100,000 tournament machines on-line. The ITS will feature a number of
national tournaments throughout the year. These tournaments will vary in length from weekly to monthly, with top prize
awards ranging from one thousand to potentially one-hundred thousand dollars or more. Before each tournament begins,
a message is sent to the LED sign attached to each cabinet, announcing the start dates and prize structure of the upcoming
tournament. At the specified date, the tournament automatically begins on all of the valid tournament games.
The entry fee to join the tournament is about twice the cost as regular play, and is entered into the game by the player
each time he/she plays. About half of this tournament income is shared by the operator and location. The rest of the
tournament fee is sent to the ITS for national, regional and local prize funds, as well as administrative expenses. The
ITS receives a portion of tournament plays only. Any earnings collected from regular and practice play is not
considered tournament income. This income is split between the operator and location as they see fit.
Connecting to the ITS has been made as simple and complete as possible. The game hooks up to a normal telephone
jack using regular telephone wire. Once plugged in, an automatic setup procedure logs the game machine as an active
tournament terminal. A simple form must also be filled out, detailing some specific information for that machine, such as
game ID number, location name, preferred time for phoning into the central computer, and pertinent billing information.
The ITS was designed with the operator in mind. Each ITS-compatible game can act just like a regular video game on
his route. The games can be moved to different locations and will play a regular, non-tournament game even when not
hooked into the ITS. Location change forms and off-line notices are supplied in your operator forms package, to keep
your tournament activities up to date.

39 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

NOTE:
Tournament Rules are subject to change and will
be updated on the LED signs of participating
tournament games.

Beginning a Tournament
The following describes what will happen when a tournament begins on your game.
1.

The LED sign displays a new message 3 to 5 days before the tournament start date. The sign message displays the
Tournament name, start and end dates, prize money and tournament rules.

Tournament data is downloaded to each machine before the tournament begins. Each machine receives the
Tournament parameters and start and end dates of the Tournament.

The Tournament is accessible by players on the start date of the tournament. When a game is started, a special
screen gives players a choice to play Regular Play or Tournament Play. This screen is seen only when a tournament
is running.

Players with qualifying scores are asked to enter their full name and social security number at the end of each
tournament game. The player's name is then displayed on the various Tournament Leaderboard, shown during the
game's attract cycle.

Each night the game machine calls ITS Central via a toll-free number. During the short call, tournament
information is transferred. Transferred data includes National, Regional and Local leaders and Social Security
numbers, total number of tournament plays, and any special or instant winners.

ITS Central processes the data received from all of the tournament machines. After removing duplicate or bogus
entries, updated Leaderboards are generated and sent to each machine during the next call. New LED sign messages
are also sent, updating the various Leaderboards, prize funds, and other important tournament data. Advertising by
corporate sponsors may also appear on the LED sign and game monitor.

Collection Procedure
Although the tournament games have been designed to be as hands free as possible, there is an extra step that must be
addressed during the collection process. You will need to separate the ITS portion of the game's earnings before you
make your location split. The ITS only bills for valid tournament plays. All Regular play is ignored by the ITS.
1.

Collect each ITS Machine as usual on your normal route.

Press the Test Mode button located inside the coin door. This accesses the game's Test software.

From the Main Menu, use the Trackball to highlight ITS COLLECTION REPORT AS DOLLARS or ITS
COLLECTION REPORT AS COINS and press the START button. Both reports will show the same information,
one in total coins and one in total US dollars. You can use either report to match your collection preference.

Review the entire report. The total dollars or total coins should agree with your collection. Note the number of
completed tournament games.

Review the ITS portion figure. This amount should be separated from your collection before splitting with the
location. ITS coins are calculated from valid tournament games only.

After separating the ITS coins and writing down the values, it is advised to reset the audits so each collection gives
accurate data. Highlight RESET COLLECTION COUNTS and press START.

When you are finished reviewing the coin reports screen, highlight EXIT and press the START button to return to
the Main Menu.
Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 40

Once the ITS portion is separated, split your collection with your location as usual.

Deposit the ITS portion of your collection into your ITS Automatic Debit Account regularly to guarantee sufficient
funds and continue Tournament service.

Ending a Tournament
The following describes what happens at the end of a tournament.
1.

The Tournament ends on the advertised end date. Each tournament game is programmed to disable Tournament
play at this time. Games in progress are allowed to continue until completed.

The disabled game machine will no longer allow Tournament play. Players will no longer have a selection
screen for Regular or Tournament play. Regular play is completely unaffected by the end of the tournament and the
game will play as usual.

Final Tournament data is downloaded from each machine during the regularly scheduled call-in time. A new
LED message is sent to each machine at this time, announcing the end of the Tournament.

A list of Tournament winners is compiled after all of the games have called the ITS with final data. It may take
three to four days for all of the games to make their final calls. When all of the games have reported in, the final
standings are transferred to each machine.

Final Leaderboard and new LED messages continue to appear on each game machine after the Tournament
ends, to allow players to view the final standings.

Winners Lists are made available to locations for display. The signs include instructions to the winners on how
to claim their prizes. Incredible Technologies is responsible for distribution of prizes to verified winners. Operators
are responsible for posting the Winners Lists at their locations.

The game machines continue to call the ITS each night, even when no tournament is running. Machines
remain on-line in order to monitor for potential problems, as well as be ready to accept new LED sign messages and
starting data for the next tournament.

A statement is faxed to the operator at the end of the tournament that details the tournament activity on each of
his machines. The total number of tournament plays and the dollar value of the ITS portion of the tournament plays
appears on the statement, along with the date that the ITS funds will be transferred from the operator's automatic
debit account. Operators are usually given 4 to 7 business days to make their ITS funds available before the funds
are electronically transferred.

41 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

Prize Claim Procedure
The ITS will send you an official Winners List Poster for each tournament location at the end of a Tournament.
Distributors and Operators are required to distribute the Winners Lists to their locations.
Operators should encourage locations to post the Winners List near the game machine for at least one month or longer
after the end of the Tournament.
Tournament winners must call Incredible Technologies, Inc. at (847) 870-7027 to claim their prizes. Winners will be
asked for name, social security number and winning location, along with their address and phone number.
The ITS will mail Tournament winners a Prize Release form that must be signed and returned with a photocopy of a
valid ID that contains the winners address and social security number, for proper verification.
The ITS will mail the winner their prize after a designated verification period, if no duplicate or false claims have arisen.
All tournament prize winnings will be reported to the IRS as required. Winners of prizes totaling $600 or more will
receive a 1099 tax form at year end.
Tournament winners are solely responsible for claiming their prize and verifying their scores.
Incredible Technologies, Inc. is solely responsible for payments of prizes to valid tournament winners. Distributors,
operators and locations are not responsible for payment of prizes to winners.
If discrepancies or duplicate claims arise, Tournament winners may be subject to validation tests and other forms of
verification by the ITS Review Board.
Tournament winners must be 18 years or older to enter a Tournament and claim a prize.
Misuse of or tampering with tournament equipment will disqualify the player and/or location from the Tournament.
The Tournament is subject to rules and procedures of the ITS, the tournament location, federal and state law. Void
where prohibited.

Tournament Icons
Your game contains a simple icon feature that will assist you and your location in monitoring the status of your phone
line connections. During the attract sequence of the game, which is displayed when no one is playing, a number of small
icons are displayed. The displayed icons will help you determine at a glance the working status of the tournament and
your game cabinet.

Tournament Status OK

Tournament Disabled.

This icon means that your game is running correctly and
your line connections are good. Your game will make one
toll-free phone call each day, even if there is no tournament
running.

This icon is displayed when the tournament has been
automatically shut off on the game. The tournament is
disabled if a game was unsuccessful in connecting to the
ITS over a 24 hour period. The tournament also may be
disabled from the ITS if tournament forms have not been
sent, tournament fees have not been paid, or game
tampering is detected.
Often, the game can be restored to the tournament in
progress by forcing a successful phone call using the
tournament menu in test mode. If the tournament has been
reset for other reasons, call your distributor.

Attempting to make a call to ITS

No Dialtone detected, or modem
This icon will appear if an attempt to make a scheduled call problem.
was unsuccessful. When an attempted call is unsuccessful,
the game will try again automatically. The number of
attempts is displayed next to the icon at the bottom of the
screen, during the attract mode.
The game will try to call frequently for the first couple of
hours, and occasionally after that. After about twenty-two
hours, the game will frequently try to call again. If the
game has not connected to the ITS within this 24 hour
period, the tournament is automatically disabled from the
tournament. At this point, the only way to enable the
tournament is to force a successful phone call using the
tournament menu in test mode, or to fix whatever problem
is preventing a successful call.

43 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

This icon is displayed if the game detects a problem with
the modem, or if the game cannot find a dial tone. This is
a good warning to the location manager that the phone
lines may be disconnected and should be checked. It may
also indicate a faulty modem, which should be serviced
immediately.
To verify a dial tone, plug a normal telephone into the
empty jack on the modem. A dial tone should be heard. If
not, there is a problem with the phone line, such as a
broken phone line or disconnection. Check all of your
phone connections and be sure they are correct and secure.
This icon will also appear if the phone line is in use when
the game attempts to make a call. If this situation occurs,
the game will attempt to make the call at a later time.

APPENDIX E
Frequently Asked Questions About The ITS
How do I make the game call into ITS at any time?
Go into the test software and choose Tournament Menu with the trackball and START button. Next
select Tournament Operator Adjustables. The top line is Force Tournament Upload. Change that to Yes
by rolling the trackball to the right. Exit the test software by repeatedly pressing the START button. The
game will then make a call to ITS. If the call fails, enter the test software and exit immediately and the
game will attempt to call again.

Does the game call the ITS, or does ITS call the game?
The game is programmed to call into ITS on a toll free line one time each day.

When does the game call ITS and how many times?
The game calls once during the night at a predetermined time selected by ITS. The default calling time is
between 2 and 4 in the morning.

What if the game is turned off and misses its scheduled time to call ITS?
As soon as the game is turned on it will attempt to complete a call to ITS.

Can the operator select a specific time for the game to call ITS?
Yes, ITS can give the cabinet a specific time within the hour. Example: between 7am and 8am. Specify
this on the Game Initialization Form.

How will I know if a successful call has been made?
When the game is attempting a call, the screen will display an ITS CALL screen. The text near the bottom of
the screen will show the status of the phone call. A typical successful call will display the following status
messages in this order: Modem Found, Modem Dialing, Modem Connected, Connected to ITS, Data
Transfer Successful.

What are the symbols at the bottom of the screen for?
Your game will display a number of icons at the bottom of the screen, to help you know the status of your
game at a glance. There are four different icons that are displayed: The gold ITS logo means that you are
connected to the ITS system and everything is OK.
The blue telephone icon means that your game has tried to make a call, but was unsuccessful, perhaps from a
busy signal or interrupted call. A number will appear next to the icon, showing how many call attempts have
been attempted. If this number is big, you probably have a problem with your phone line or modem and it
should be checked out.

Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 44

The telephone with the red X through it means that your modem is not receiving a dial tone. This may be
caused by the phone cord being disconnected, loss of power to the modem, etc. When this icon is showing, it
means that your game is not calling the ITS and will not receive or transmit tournament data.
The ITS logo with a red X through it means that your game has been disabled and removed from the
tournament. This happens when your game has not been able to call in for more than 24 hours. Often, this
can be remedied by forcing a call or checking your phone connections. This icon may also appear if you
have not sent in your paperwork. Your game will not receive tournament information until your paperwork
has been processed through the ITS.

When I attempt to make a call to ITS, the game comes back and says no dial tone
found. What do I do?
Plug a normal telephone into the extra phone jack on the modem. A dial tone must be heard on the phone. If
no dial tone is heard check your phone line connections. If a dial tone is heard, try dialing a phone number to
make sure you can call out.

Can I use this game on a rotary phone system?
The game is factory set to call out on a tone system, but you can set your game to use rotary or pulse dialing. Enter the
test software and select Tournament Menu with the trackball and START button. Next select Tournament Operator
Adjustables. Highlight the Rotary Dial to yes using the trackball and START button.

I have a dial tone but I never get a successful call into ITS. What do I check first?
Make sure the settings in the Tournament Operator Adjustables menu are correct (Refer to page 21 of the manual). Ask
yourself some questions. Is this location on a rotary phone system? Is the phone line on a computer phone system? (The
tournament may not work on all phone systems.) Do I have to dial something to reach an outside line?

When I force a call into ITS it says modem connected but the game comes back and
says ITS call unsuccessful. Why?
The game may be on a noisy phone line. This can be caused by old phone lines, too many devices on the line, or bad
lines coming from the phone company. A direct connection to the box coming into the building or a new separate phone
line added to the building is a way to rectify this problem.

I made a successful call so why can't I enter the tournament?
The paper work for the game must be sent or faxed to the ITS for processing. Without the paperwork, your game will not
receive tournament data and LED messages. Also, a Tournament must be in progress. A game can be added to the
tournament up to 1 week after the official start of a new tournament so be sure to get your paperwork in early.

If my board fails can I just go to the distributor and get a new board?
NO. Your game PCB has an ID number programmed into it to match your game cabinet. The board ID number that is in
the software must match the cabinet ID number, in order for you to receive tournament data. Contact your distributor for
all advance replacements, which must be properly initialized by Incredible Technologies.

45 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

If I call the distributor or ITS for service, what information should I have ready in
case the service technician needs it?
The Game ID Number is how your game's status is tracked. The ID number of the cabinet must match the ID number in
the software. You can verify this by going into the test software. The Game ID Number is displayed at the top of every
screen in the test software. It is also displayed in the Tournament Menu, at the bottom of the Display Timers screen. The
number must be 8 digits long, leading with zeros.

Why does the overhead sign have a different name than my location name?
When you send in your paperwork, a sign message is generated for your game. This sign message will display the name
of the location. If the location name on the LED display is wrong, you should first check that you sent in the correct
Game ID Number. The Game ID Number is located on the back of the cabinet and in the test software. Verify that those
numbers are the same. Go into the test software to verify the ID number there. It is displayed at the top of the screen and
must be 8 digits long leading with zeros. If your ID Numbers are correct, call or fax ITS and a corrected message will be
made.

My overhead sign has some kind of test version on it all the time. Why is it doing that
and how do I get a regular message on it?
The ITS pre-loads an introductory message at the factory and should appear when the game is turned on. Sometimes, the
sign may lose this message and default to the sign test. To get your correct sign message back, force a phone call to the
ITS. The new message will be loaded during this successful call. Turn the game off and back on again to make sure the
message stays in memory. Run the sign test in the test software to make sure the main board is communicating to the
sign.

How do I know when there is a tournament?
Upcoming tournament dates and prizes will be announced on the game’s LED sign a week in advance. Your distributor
will most likely supply this information to you on your first tournament. Announcements of subsequent tournaments will
be included with your billing statements at the end of each tournament.

How do the players know when there is a tournament?
Special tournament messages are periodically downloaded to the game's LED message display. These messages
announce new tournaments and prizes. The individual Local prize is also announced. The message board begins
announcing a new tournament about 4 days before the tournament begins.

How often do Tournaments run?
Tournaments are held about once a month. They usually last about 2 1/2 weeks, with about a week and a half between.

Why don't you run tournaments continually, back-to-back?
Time between tournaments is useful for many reasons. It gives the players a feeling of conclusion, and a sense of
anticipation for the next tournament. It gives operators a chance to hook up new games or move their existing games to a
new location. It gives the ITS time to generate and mail winners posters to operators.

Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 46

How does a player enter the tournament?
A player enters any amount of money into the tournament cabinet. If a tournament is active, a special selection screen
appears. This selection screen gives the player a choice to play a regular game of golf at your normal coin settings, or
enter the special tournament course for a specified fee. If the player chooses to enter the tournament, the game asks for
the correct number of coins to be added.

Can I adjust the skill level on the tournament?
The skill level and other parameters such as wind speed and pin placement are controlled and set by the ITS. These
settings are the same on every machine. You can change the skill level on the regular games without affecting
tournament play.

How do I know how much money to send to the ITS?
When collecting your ITS machines, it is important to separate the ITS money from your collection before making your
split, so you don't overpay your locations. During your routine collection, use the ITS Collection Report in the test
software to determine how much money to set aside for the ITS. You can use either the Collection Report as Dollars or
the Collection Report as Coins. It is strongly advised that you reset this report to zero after your collection, so each time
you collect, this report will reflect what is in the cash box.

If I reset my reports after each collection, how can I verify my totals at the end of a
tournament?
A second set of tournament statistics are stored in the test software, in the Tournament Audits screen, accessed from the
Tournament Menu. These numbers cannot be reset by the operator during a tournament and stay up for about a week
after a tournament ends. The statistics on this screen are reset to zero by the ITS before the start of each tournament.

How often do you transfer funds from my account?
The ITS bills one time at the end of each tournament. You will be faxed or mailed a statement about 4 days after the end
of the tournament. This statement shows the tournament activity on each of your ITS machines, and the total amount
owed to the ITS. A transfer date is also displayed, which is usually about 6 days after the statement is faxed or mailed.
You must have the full amount in your account by this date. Any questions or discrepancies should be handled before
this transfer date.

The billing statement doesn't match my collection numbers. What should I do?
A second set of tournament statistics are stored in the test software, in the Tournament Audits screen, accessed from the
Tournament Menu. These numbers cannot be reset by the operator during a tournament and stay up for about a week
after a tournament ends. Use this screen to verify the tournament numbers of your machine. Remember, this screen is
reset to zero by the ITS a few days before the start of each tournament.

How come the standings on the Leaderboards sometimes change after a tournament
ends?
The ITS collects data from all machines at the end of the day. Because of this, the Leaderboards are usually a day behind
and need an extra day to catch up with real-time play. The ITS collects and processes the final data to determine final
standings. Sometimes this takes a few days, due to unattended or off-line games. When the final data is collected, it is
processed to eliminate ineligible players and invalidated entries. The final Leaderboards are then sent back to the games
at the next call. This process may take a few days.

47 - Golden Tee Golf ‘99

How do I let my locations know who won?
After the final data is processed, the ITS generates posters of National, Regional, and Local winners. Winners posters for
each of your locations are mailed to operators about one week after the tournament ends. Operators are required to post
these posters at each location for at least 90 days.

How does a winner claim a prize?
A player calls the ITS to claim his prize. The player's name, address and social security number is taken and a
Verification Form is sent. The form must be signed and sent back, along with some form of proof of social security
number, such as a drivers license. After the Verification Form is returned and processed, the ITS sends the player his
check. The ITS pays all prizes to players. The collected funds sent to the ITS at the end of the tournament are used to
pay out prizes. Players call the ITS to claim their prize. The operator and location do not pay prizes.
