Title: Anyone know what this SAS message means?
Post by: Jimise on December 26, 2009, 12:29:56 AM
Hello, This message seems to show up after I get a jackpot of 100 or more.
 (SAS 4 Host option Coupon owed !)
If you turn the reset key, The game resets and will then give you the credits.
Just curious if anyone knows why, or what this means! 

Thanks Everyone...............

I can't be too specific as I know little about the specific of this platform
SAS however is the protocol that player tracking systems / Cash Management systems use to communicate to a central computer.
On the newer games SAS was used to report all the game statistics back as well so you would not have to do manual meter reads.

With respect to this message it sounds like it is set to flag all wins of 100 credits or more and is looking for the mother ship.
I would suspect you can change one of the options and it will go away. Perhaps even disabling SAS would be enough ?

This sounds like the machine is set up to issue a ticket on any win over 100, and if there is no printer in the machine or it's not working it will give that message.  I would check the settings.
