Site Preparation

In determining the location for your

Megatouch video game, consideration must

be given to a suitable, grounded electrical

outlet. Since the game is a computerized

device, it should have a separate circuit if at

all possible. If a separate circuit is not avail-

able, care should be taken to provide a clean

and constant voltage. As a basic guideline,

never connect the unit to a circuit that also

supplies power to freezers, coolers or other

high power consuming and electrical noise

generating equipment. Place the game in a

location where nothing will interfere with

proper ventilation. The game should not be

exposed to any dripping or splashing liq-
uids.

NOTE: After turning off the unit, wait
60 seconds before turning the game
back on. This will allow the game to
properly reset.

Setting up your Megatouch Game

Remove the game from the carton.

Open the additional box and use the

instructions provided to attach the drink

arms to the game.

Attach the power cord to the back of

the game near the ON/OFF switch. Plug

the game into a standard AC outlet.

Turn the power switch at the back of

the game to ON and wait for it to go

through its boot-up sequence. At the

completion of the boot-up sequence,

the game will display the Player Menu.

The machine has been preset at the

factory and therefore should not need

to be adjusted; however, it is recom-

mended that the screen be calibrated

(see

Screen Calibration

) and the coin

or bill acceptor(s) be tested.

There are many custom settings avail-

able for the game. To customize the

settings, follow the instructions begin-

ning with the Main Menu section in this

manual.

Game Description

The game is housed in a 61.25” upright cabi-

net. It should be located on a sturdy, level

surface. The bottom of the cabinet has four

leg levellers to make any necessary adjust-

ments. When the game is properly adjusted,

it should remain stable.

There are 4 key-locked compartments: the

top bezel, monitor bezel, bottom door, and

the cash box door.

An additional keyhole is

located on the right side of the game for the

Refill Key. See the

Hopper Refill

section of

this manual for more information.

Three modes are available for gameplay:

Amusement, Money Shoot/Skill With Prize

(S.W.P.), and Tournament (TournaCHAMP

and Championship Edition). The default set-

ting is S.W.P. only. TournaCHAMP play re-

quires a modem. Championship Edition is

available with the purchase of an additional

kit (part number KUV-113-003-01).

The SETUP and CALIBRATE buttons are lo-

cated on the monitor control board above

the LCD touchscreen (see Figure 1). To

access the monitor control board, unlock the

left and right locks on the top bezel. Lift the

bezel. The screen will go blank. Press the

SETUP button and a keypad will display on-

screen. Enter your PIN code (default is

4777)

to load the Main Menu Screen or turn the

Refill Key. An incorrect PIN will clear the

keypad. After 3 incorrect attempts, entry to

SETUP is not permitted. Close and open the

top bezel to reset the keypad.

See

General Care and Maintenance

for

calibration instructions.

NOTE: To close the bezel, lift it, then
push down on the yellow rubber
bracket covers to move the brackets
from the locking channel. Lower the
bezel to close. Make sure all doors are
locked after closing the doors.

CPU Section

The CPU section is accessible by unlocking

the bottom door of the game. This section

houses an electronics box which contains

the motherboard, I/O board, power supply,

hard drive, and the main harness.

The Cash In, Cash Out, Hopper Refill, and

Prize Pool hard meters are attached to the

electronics box. See Figure 23. Each meter

is labeled.

Coin Mech/Bill Acceptor and Cash Box

The coin mech and/or bill acceptor are ac-

cessible by opening the monitor bezel of the

cabinet (see Figure 21). The coin box and

the hopper overflow bucket are located

within the metal cash box door. This door is

key-locked for security

Hopper

The hopper is located in the monitor bezel

compartment and dispenses coin prize

payouts. See the

Hopper Setup

section

of this manual for further instructions.

Security Keys

Money Shoot is equipped with two security

keys. Key 1 is located on the monitor con-

trol board. See Figures 1 and 22. Key 2 is

located on the I/O board and is permanently

installed in the game. See Figure 23.

Key 2 requires recharging after 40,000 Gen-

eral Purpose Plays (sum of all Amusement,

S.W.P. and Tournament credits) are used.

Once the number of General Purpose Plays

is less than 3,000, the message

“Warning

X credits remaining, please recharge

key,”

will display in the SETUP Menu and

on the Refill screen.

To order Recharge Key kits (part number

KUV-113-002-01), contact your authorized

Merit Distributor.

If the number of General Purpose Plays de-

creases to 0 without being recharged, S.W.P.

mode will automatically deactivate and the

game will begin to use its 1,000 Emergency

Reserve credits. All Amusement and Tour-

nament games will continue to be available.

Once the 1,000 Emergency Reserve credits

are used, the game will limit play to 9 pre-

selected Amusement games. These games

cannot be changed by the operator. The

game will not regain normal functionality until

Key 2 is recharged.

type recommended by the manufac-
turer. Dispose of used batteries ac-
cording to the manufacturer’s instruc-

tions.

3 MONEY SHOOT OWNER’S MANUAL PM0519-03

Cleaning the Cabinet

•

The cabinet should be cleaned with a

damp cloth and mild detergent. Always

apply the cleaner to the cloth and not

directly on the game. Liquids could

enter the cabinet and damage electron-

ics inside.

Cleaning the Touchscreen Monitor

•

The touchscreen glass should be

cleaned with a damp cloth and isopro-

pyl alcohol or a

non-ammonia

cleanser.

Do not use any abrasive or vinegar-

based cleansers, as they will damage

the touchscreen glass

NOTE:

DO NOT USE ANY ABRASIVE

SOLVENTS, ACID OR VINEGAR-BASED
CLEANSERS ON THE MONITOR OR
SIDE DECALS. OVER TIME, SUCH
CLEANSERS COULD HARM THE
TOUCHSCREEN AND ERASE THE DE-
CALS. BE CAREFUL NOT TO USE COM-
MERCIAL CLEANERS CONTAINING
ANY OF THESE SUBSTANCES.

Cleaning the Fans and Vents

•

The fans and vents should be cleaned

of any dust on a regular basis to en-

sure proper ventilation of the game.

•

To ensure proper operation of the

game, it is important that all fans are

operating correctly and that the airflow

is unobstructed. Make sure nothing is

placed inside the cabinet or next to the

fan vents that would inhibit the flow of

air. Also, if any fans are not operating,

it is important that they be replaced.

Watchdog Timer

This game has been equipped with a fea-

ture that allows it to automatically reboot if it

encounters a problem. When the watchdog

timer is enabled, it will reboot the machine

within 2 minutes after a failure, allowing the

game to automatically reset itself if a prob-

lem arises without needing a technician

present.

If you want to disable the watchdog timer,

set DIP switch 3 on the I/O board to the open

position and reboot the game.

NOTE: After turning the unit off, wait
60 seconds before restarting the unit.
This will ensure the game properly re-
sets.

button will display a list of the

games on which the player has the hi score

and the score itself. If desired, the opera-

tor can also reward the player with free

credits through the View Player Data

Screen.

Show Game Play Frequency

This feature shows the number of games

played by each My Merit player. The op-

erator can choose whether to display all

totals or just those that fall within a certain

date range.

Show Player Hi Scores

Selecting a game name under this feature

will bring up the Hi Scores of each My Merit

player for that game, as well as the date

the score was achieved. The operator can

choose whether to display all Hi Scores or

just those that fall within a certain date

range.

Backup/Restore

My Merit data can be backed up or restored

with a USB pen. After connecting a pen to

the machine, touch this button to proceed

with backing up or restoring all My Merit

data. USB pen kits (kit number KAV-100-

008-01) are available. To order, contact

your local distributor.

NOTE: Restoring My Merit data from
a storage device will erase any My
Merit data currently on the game.
Conversely, backing up data onto the
USB pen will also overwrite any exist-
ing My Merit data on the USB pen.

Merit Money

The Merit Money screens allow location

owners to encourage game play by offer-

ing free games (not free credits) at certain

time intervals via the 6 Star Feature. Select

days of the week, time frames, and the

number of free games (1-10 per day) to be

awarded, as well as a PIN number for lo-

cation owners to use to access Merit

Money through 6 Star. Location owners

can enable Merit Money by entering that

specific PIN in the 6 Star screen. One free

game is given away each time the location

enters the code until the predetermined daily

limit is reached. Free games expire after

10 minutes, when money is deposited into

the machine, or when the Merit Money time

period comes to an end.

Promo Credits

The Promo Credits feature generates inter-

est by offering operator-controlled free

credits while the game is in idle mode. Se-

lect days of the week, time frames, idle

time (number of minutes the game is in idle

mode before free credits are offered) and

the number of credits (1-10) to be awarded.

A message announcing that free credits

are available will appear on the screen

during idle mode when Promo Credits go

into effect. Promo Credits expire after 10

minutes or when the Promo Credits time

period comes to an end.

Hopper Setup Screen

To Enter This Screen, Touch “Hop-

per Setup” on the S.W.P. Menu

The Hopper Setup screen allows you to ad-

just the hopper settings. The hopper is used

solely for Skill With Prize payouts. To estab-

lish funds for player payouts, the operator

must manually load (“top-up”) the hopper

with £1 coins only. Unlock and raise the top

and monitor bezels to access the hopper.

Lift the cover off the hopper and fill. Line up

the cover with the left corners of the hop-

per, then snap into place. At collection, the

amount in the hopper should be separated

and returned to the appropriate party. The

remaining funds in the coin box and over-

flow bucket can be split as desired.

Actual Float

: Current number of coins in

the hopper. After a Hopper Top-Up, this num-

ber will change to the number of coins the

operator selected using the Hopper Top-Up

buttons. The Actual Float will never be higher

than the last top-up amount. Excess coins

entered through the Refill Key screens or

the coin acceptor will be rerouted to the

overflow bucket. The operator must enter

the correct amount as the original Actual

Float value for proper functionality.

Hopper Top-Up

: Select the number of

coins manually placed in the hopper. Choose

from 70 pounds, 125 pounds, or touch the

Set Custom

arrow to select a custom

FIGURE 16 - S.W.P. MENU:

HOPPER SETUP SCREEN

amount between 40 and 200 pounds. Use

the numeric keypad to enter an amount, then

touch the corresponding button. The se-

lected top-up amount is the maximum amount

the hopper will hold.

NOTE: After selecting a custom
amount, you must touch the button with
that amount displayed for the Actual

Float value to update.

Hopper Dump:

Use the Hopper Dump but-

tons to dump coins from the hopper to the

payout tray. Touch the corresponding but-

tons to individually dump coins, dump the

amount last “topped-up,” or empty the entire

hopper. If the actual float of the hopper is

less than the amount selected for hopper

dump,

“Short £(X)”

will flash on-screen.

NOTE: The operator must enter the
correct amount as the original Actual
Float value for proper functionality.
If the operator enters an Actual Float
amount different than the actual coins
input in the hopper, “Dump All” will
not function properly and an error
message will display. If the wrong Ac-
tual Float amount is entered, and an
error does not display, press the
“Dump All” button once, then again,
to remove all coins. An error message
will display the amount of coins over
the Actual Float. Calculate the true
Actual Float by adding the initial dis-
played Actual Float amount and the
error amount.

Target Payout

: The default setting is 30%.

Press the

Set Payout %

arrow and use the

numeric keypad to change the amount. The

minimum is 30% and the maximum is 50%.

Hopper Refill

When the hopper contains 20 or fewer coins,

“Hopper is Low. Please Refill”

will dis-

play on the SETUP Main Menu. If more money

is needed to complete a player payout,

“Ser-

vice Machine. Please See Attendant

”

will display on the Player Menu Screen.

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS

The following table provides information on the functionality of the hard DIP switches in
Megatouch games. Make sure to read the information in the

Notes

column to determine

what is affected when performing these functions. After performing any DIP switch
function, make sure to follow the instructions on the screen. In most cases, you will be
instructed to reset the DIP switch in order to reboot the game. If you fail to reset the DIP
switch before rebooting, it could result in corruption of the hard drive.

A memory clear should be performed when a game is not able
to connect to TournaCHAMP and there is some question about
the information in the Dial-Up Network Screen being correct.
After performing a memory clear, TournaCHAMP setup
information must be re-entered, and an

Update From Server

should be performed.

NOTE: TournaCHAMP games must perform an “Update

TournaCHAMP player database, TournaCHAMP settings,
advertising screens, bookkeeping, high scores, coin-in,
options, etc. It resets the game to the factory defaults. It also
marks bad sectors on hard drive.

A complete memory clear should only be performed when the
game is locking up or resetting and it has passed the checksum
test. After performing a memory clear, the player database
should be reloaded, TournaCHAMP setup information must be
re-entered, and an

Update From Server

should be performed.

NOTE: TournaCHAMP games must perform an “Update
From Server” BEFORE performing a memory clear.

Watchdog

Megatouch TournaCHAMP™ Edition

NOTE: For all U.K. operators, U.K. TournaCHAMP™ Central Administration will provide the

Internet Service for dial-up connections. You can choose to use your own ISP but certain

large Internet providers like AOL™, CompuServe™, Prodigy™, and NetZero™ utilize a

proprietary dial-up protocol that is not industry standard and may not work with

TournaCHAMP™. Some of the major providers that are compatible with TournaCHAMP™

are ATT Worldnet™, Sprint™, Erols™, Tymenet™, and EarthLink™, and most of the smaller

local Internet providers. You can also now choose between Dial-Up, Automatic, and Manual

Internet access. Dial-up uses the internal modem and standard phone line and Automatic

and Manual use cable or DSL modems. You must have your own ISP to use the Automatic

or Manual connection methods.

Overview

Merit’s TournaCHAMP™ is a fully automated Tournament system designed to network

Megatouch games over the Internet, for the purpose of playing in tournament games. All

Tournament configuration and maintenance is controlled by a central server, which is man-

aged by Merit’s Tournament Manager. Placing the Tournament Management responsibilities

in the hands of a Tournament Manager greatly simplifies the operator’s role.

The system allows any number of Megatouch games to participate, by connecting to the

server over the Internet. To participate, an operator only needs to fill out the Game Start-Up

Form and fax it to U.K. TournaCHAMP™ Central Administration at 020 8594 1235, install the

kit into an existing game and connect the game to the Internet.

Players register directly on the game and only need to register once for any tournaments run

by that server. Scores are based on the average of five games, with the winner(s) having

the highest average score.

TournaCHAMP™ is a tournament promotion system, allowing players to compete for a prize

pool based on the income from premium-priced tournament games. The top scorer(s), at the

completion of a tournament, is entered into the Winners List for retention until they claim their

prizes.

Players who achieve a winning score(s) during a tournament must enter their name, along

with their own personal identification number (PIN). Should they win in that tournament, the

PIN will be used to ensure positive identification of the player. Provided an attendant is

present, prizes may be claimed anytime after the completion of a tournament. Once the prize

is awarded, it is noted on the Winners List and is accounted for in the bookkeeping statistics.

The operator can choose to collect and pay the prize money, have TournaCHAMP™ Central

Administration collect and pay the prize money or chose to do both.
