Title: Bucks Ahoy issue Post by: cp on January 14, 2012, 12:14:05 AM I have good working Bucks Ahoy... only issue I've been having is when turned off / turned on... it goes, eventually, to Touch Screen calibration set up...
I changed the 2032 coin Battery in the top box... no change. Once I do the simple TS Calib... machine works perfect. ? ? ? any ideas ? Thanks.

Is THAT what that big green battery is for? I didn't know that! :133- Is it to save memory stuff in on the Reel Touch platform? Title: Re: Bucks Ahoy issue Post by: Foster on January 14, 2012, 06:06:58 AM The green battery runs the Tattle Tale Circuits
It basically detects: Power off card cage access. depending on how a S2000 is configured by IGT it can detect when a tech unlocks the mpu and removes it. Power off slot door access. Power off cash box door access. Power off drop door access. If you have a top box computer and the touch screen is part of the computer check the battery in it.

I don't know if the green battery directly affects topbox memory, but on a game with a 1270 MPU and a bad green battery I've also had coinsiding touchscreen memory issues until the battery was changed. Coinsidence? Maybe, I only had the issue once, but after replacing the battery the other issue disappears until I don't turn the game on for a week or more. Then I have it again till the games been turned back on on a more regular basis.

Thanks. (I just picked up 8 of these Reel Touch machines...They should have called them "Reel Touchy" machines) Title: Re: Bucks Ahoy issue Post by: Foster on January 14, 2012, 03:50:51 PM Since it is a reel touch
he has 3 batteries 2 on MPU and one in the top box computer, (its just a simple PC with Embedded Windows XP) Title: Re: Bucks Ahoy issue Post by: cowboygames on January 14, 2012, 06:58:53 PM He changed the topbox battery, that's the 2032. If he's using a 1270 board, then his MPU battery is a 2354. I forget what battery the 504 board uses and I'm not home to look. I sure don't know if I'm right, just relating my experiences
