Title: How to Clear a HandPay or Hopper Empty on a WMS Dotmation 400 Post by: The_Pfef on October 15, 2011, 08:54:45 PM I accidentally pressed the "Change" button with no coins in the machine. I never have had a 'tilt' on this machine. How do I clear a HPRE - Hopper Empty? The Dotmation displays "Calling Attendant"
Thanks for the help.

It won't be happy until it pays out the amount of credits that were in the machine when you pressed the change button.

Mike Mike You don't have to hold a cherry switch in, just pull it out one notch and it will stay there and make the machine think the door is closed.
