Title: Battery IGT IGAME board Post by: Duxx on December 01, 2008, 04:44:18 PM Hi guys
I have a board that indicates main battery low. I replaced it but still get the message along with "options verification required" even after clear. thanks for the help.

Good luck, Wayne Title: Re: Battery IGT IGAME board Post by: Duxx on December 01, 2008, 10:54:03 PM yes sir

I have changed all 3.6 volt batteries on my boards AA type rechargeable Nicad cells. I bought some 3 cell battery holders and mounted the battery holder on standoffs on the board. As my boards spend a lot of time out of the machine I can recharge spare cells and insert them in the holder as required. Another advantage is that if a cell leaks its not going to damage the board.

it as a great idea! its a pain to change those button batteries. did the low battery problem go away? Title: Re: Battery IGT IGAME board Post by: hoppy on December 04, 2008, 03:22:03 AM I have New Zealand 980 game king board which are a little different. your board I think will have a button cell on board to supply ram as well as the 3.6 volt battery. I think the quarts inputs lists both batteries in its readouts.
To get to the readouts on my machines I press the test switch on the board (by the LEDs) then press the diagnostics menu, then the logic board? (bottom of 5 choices) then next page. has security door main door drop door and at the bottom of the list battery 1 battery 2 my board has batteries piggy backed on the ram chips themselves and a resistor in place of the button cell hope theres some useful info for you |
