Progressive not Progressing...

OK I just bought a wonderful CDS PROGRESSIVE Prosolo V1.70 From lemans1969.... Thanks  :3-
I hooked it up with very little effort but it does not progress....  :25-
did I miss hook up something is there a start up key sequence for a progressive...?
It lights up and displays a dollar amount and changes colors but thats it.  :103-

This is on an S+ machine.....

Taking the slot out of the equation the COIN-IN basically is a momentary closure of two contacts.
If you briefly tap the two wires together it should cause your meter to increment.
I am not sure how to program a CDS (I own Mikohn) but Casinos usually set the progressives so that 8 x 25c in = 1cent increment.
So you may need to tap the leads together between 8 and 16 times to get it to move up by 1 penny.

If this works then the next question - have you inserted enough coins into the slot to get it to increment 1 penny.
I do hack wiring at best so I always program my progressives that 1 coin in = 1cent increment that way I am sure its working.
Nominally this is 4% (4 pennys for 4 quarters).

Assuming all has gone well so far but actual coins on the S+ still is not allowing it to increment.
You then have to check and see if the S+ is setup for linked progressive ?

Depending on your game chip you enable linked progressive one of three ways.

1. Dip Switch on the mother board - this is older game chips.
2.  731 you would likely do this in the S+ setup... follow the PSR sheet.
3. If you are using a newer chip like as 1271 and a SET90 chip you enable it with the SET90.

If you are not sure what gamechip you have follow RICKS FAQs to identify this, post back, then we/I can be more specific on the actual steps to enable the S+ for link.

Looks like a nice sign. April is aces.

I have put at least 1000 coins into the machine last night and it did not move at all.  :30-

My machine has dip switches that I set to:
Dip #5 Progressive on
Standalone system Dip 6-8 off

I have a SP1271 game chip
SS4695 reel chip 3 Coin Multiplier
Checkmate (186A)

Hey guys, I don't have any experience with the progressives as of yet, but shouldn't that stand alone switch be on since it is not hooked to a network?

The CDS or the Mikon in this case is the network.

The S+ is very simple. You have a 4 pin connector on the mother board.
One of the pins is labled as not-used. The other three are Coin In, Gnd and Data.
The Coin In and Grnd momentarily short for each coin or credit played and they short for a longer 3-5 second interval to trigger the jackpot.
The Data In is used to send progressive information back to the LEDs. Its not really needed and not used with a Mikon CON1.

With the 1271 the dip switches don't make a difference. You can set this through the Self Test, Setup button.
Do you have a PSR ? - I am currently at the office with no access to my reference material.

Just as a test I would try shorting the wires briefly to see if it increments.
