Title: What BVs for What Machines? Post by: Nashional on March 12, 2013, 08:26:52 PM I've read every single thread in the BVs forum and I didn't find a definite answer to questions I have.
If I have a WBA-13-SS, is the following true? 1) ID 003 = WMS (any) 2) ID 024 = IGT IGame (possibly others) 3) Software Ver: 3.38 - 30i takes the latest bills Is there different software for ID 003 and ID 024 or would it be the same? Title: Re: What BVs for What Machines? Post by: Nashional on March 13, 2013, 05:57:42 PM OK, how about this...
Can I purchase a brand new 13-SS with ID003. Than take a 13-SS I already have with ID024 and remove the 024 EPROM and put it in the 003 transport and it'll then be a 024 (and work in IGT)?

ID003 is for (at least) WMS. ID024 is for (at least) IGT IGames. You can switch the EPROMs between WMA-13-SS BVs to change the manufacturer they will work with. If there is a (white) panel on the left side of the BV, it's a piggyback board that makes it work with Bally. Take it off for IGT and WMS. Title: Re: What BVs for What Machines? Post by: JCM Tech on April 23, 2013, 05:20:57 PM JCM software comes in several protocols for gaming . ID-022/023, ID-024 and ID-028 are for IGT. ID-022/023 is for older games, prior to Netplex. ID-024 is Netplex and ID-028 is used on newer AVP platforms when they are not Emulating the older processor. The difference being ID-028 can utilize the USB connection on the UBA or IVISION. ID-003 is used for most other games now a days and unless you are using a DBV model it is your only other choice.
A complete list of the different protocols is on the JCM site at http://jcmamerican.com/en/support/downloads/protocols.aspx If you have questions about what version you need/have, there is a place on the JCM site you can get information on any specific version. http://jcmamerican.com/en/support/downloads/SoftwareInfo.aspx Enter at least the country, country code, hardware and protocol and you will get a list of available versions from newest to oldest. Select the version you want and you are directed to a PDF with information on that version with all kinds of handy information including what was changed when the software was revised |
