New Life Games Tech Forums

I'm thinking of getting one/two of the TITO set ups that our members sell but would like to know if the tickets printed from one machine can be used in another machine.
I have a 17" I Game with a ticket printer, and a 13" game King with only a bill validater.
Will one of these TITO progarms allow me to use the tickets printed from the I Game to be used in the Game King? I understand that I may need two TITO set ups, one for each machine.
Probably not the first time this question was asked but don't have the time to go through the whole TITO thread/s.
Thanks, Jim

I just got one of the TITO boards installed in my new game and love it!  From my understanding it will work in both machines with the TITO board installed.  But to be totally sure I would wait for Jim or one of the others that own two of them to speak up.

I have five machines all with BETTOR TITO. Each machine will need its own TITO board. Each machine can then read any tickets printer by other machines using the TITO board.

YES!  Both are right.  Some of my machines have printers and some don't, but all of them have Bettor TITO and the tickets work with all of them.  I keep a HUGE stack of $3,000.00 tickets in the tray of each machine and I rotate through them usually in one play time.  Running out of tickets is my queue that I've been playing too long.  Ha ha!  Then, I shut off the machine and empty the cash cans for the next play time.  Thus far, the tickets have held up pretty good considering they weren't designed to be re-used, but they're cheap enough if they start to wear out to print out another stack from any one of the machines that has a printer (you can also photocopy them).

Thanks Guys,
One other thing... I read something with the TITO programs that turn the change button into a button that puts credits on the machine. Not sure I like that idea. Is that optional?
Thanks, Jim

Hmmm ... you know, with the new TITO, that may be an option now.  I have the older TITO and that's not an option.  I do have what's called a FREE PLAY device that takes the place of one of your buttons and adds credits to the machine.  I like it for my S2000/Vision because with the press of a button, I can add $100 to the machine and keep playing.  That is an extra option, so I'm guessing the newer TITO feature is also optional.  I do recommend using it for reel machines though ... works for me at least.

I know with the Bettor TITO Deluxe you can add credits to the machine from your computer or iphone!

I have 4 machines all running Brian Hinkley's "TITO at Home" that can be found in this thread http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=22509.msg178896#msg178896 (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=22509.msg178896#msg178896).  You will need 1 unit for each machine.  Yes tickets can be printed and redeemed in other machines--that was my main selling point.  Yes credits can be added using the change button, that is an option and the board comes with it disabled, very easy to change it to enabled.  It adds 1000 credits so depending on your base denomination, you get from $10 (1 cent) to say $1000 for $1 machine.  Very easy to install and comes with directions.  I have it running on 2 S2000's, 1 Barcrest, 1 Gameking/I-game.  All tickets work in all the other machines.  Best "upgrade" I have done to my machines for sure.  I highly recommend you get one of the systems from this site.  I have been very impressed with both Brian and also Jim from Bettor slots--both are awesome to work with and will help you all the way thru gettng it going.  Good luck!

In my Machine,
I have a system handles TITO
It is set up for 5 of max 9 different amounts to the credit meter
Tracks 20 different players (amount played and won)
Full Progressive controller
Depending on what player tracking hardware in machine ability to use its display and keypad
display is used for scrolling message and system output.
keypad as input to the unit for switching players, add a bonus to the machine, add/edit/delete players, modify scrolling message, progressive, player stats, and accounting meters for machine.
No iPhone, computer, or network needed in other words Keep It Simple

I was reading the requirements for using one of the TITO boards and obviously it requires a working ticket printer. How can I test my printer? Is there a way to print a test ticket?
Thanks for the help, Jim

Foster,
Where do you get a system handles TITO and how much is that set up?
Thanks, Jim
