I replaced my battery on my S-plus slot machine that has a 16mhz board not knowing that setting are different from a 10mhz board so now I can't figure out how to reset the setting back the way they were meaning now my slot machine is acting like a change machine so when ever I win or put bills into the bill validator it just cashes out in stead of going back into the slot machine as credits can anyone explain how I can put it back the way it was so I can play it and have fun with it again??

You can push the credit/cash button so that it lights up before you put your bills and the machine will play in credit mode.  OR, you can, with no credits on the machine, open door, push white reset button so that a [2  x] shows up (it should be 3 presses, but it could be 2), then turn reset key until  [5  0]  (or could be [5   1]) shows up on the winner paid window, then change the option to [5  2] by pressing the spin reels button and it will default to credit mode, then hit the reset button at least once to save the setting and then close door.

That only works on 10mhz boards the 16mkz boards are different I have 3 slot machines with 10mhz boards and thats the way it works to set them back up.
And yes I can push the cash and credit button and it lights up but make no differance it still cashes out I am not dummy they are totaly different I may not beable to spell but I know 10mhz like the back of my hand 16mhz are different in the way they are setup??

10mhz and 16mhz boards would be different in the fact they do use different SP chips, but not any other huge differences. We use them interchangeably and have never changed anything but the SP.

No one was calling you a "dummy"...we're nice people here! We get people of all skill level on here struggling with machines. We dont know if you've even looked inside a machine before or worked on S+ machines for 25 years. No insult was intended with rickhunters post, I can assure you of that.

Maybe tell us what SP you have on your 16mhz board and we can see if we can find a PSR for it, if it isn't already on here already. Then you can see the settings and where they are located in the menus.

Oh I know you did not call me a dummy I don't know why I said that no disrespect toward anybody here I am not near the slot machine so I can say what sp chip it has later this afternoon I will have that info maybe sooner I have some 16mhz sp eprom in my collection so which ones do you know of that may have that programed onto it so I can see if I have it in my collection??

Miss spelled I mean I can't say what sp chip is installed in the machine

I'm not a SPlus person but I had one similar to this and I think my problem was the limits were set to low so any money in, came right back out.  Been several years ago and I've slept since then so I don't remember the particulars but I do remember the symptoms.

Good luck with it,
Mike

Once you're able to tell us what SP chip you have in the machine, we can point you in the direction of the documentation for it so you can get your machine set up the way you want it.

Here's a link to SP1272 for a 16mhz board, the option number is the same as in the 10 Mhz boards Group 2 page 0 option 5.  It is right after the volume control setting.

I was able to figure it out by replacing the sp eproms with ones I already had the sp1145 work by pushing the inside button till I got to the 2.1 and turning the reset key until I got to the 5.1 changed to a 5.2 it did not have a 5.3 setting which would made the cash/credit flash like it did before but thats ok its working now as it should.
Everybody thanks for all your help I learned a lot more about 16mhz boards that will help me in the future with repairs.
 Sorry guys I pulled out that sp eprom and erased it I did think to write down that sp# before I pull it and erased it I considered it garbage so I just erased it and did not think to write down the number because there was not lable on it when I removed it and I had already pulled it out of the slot machine before checking it.
 I have another question about a 10mhz eprom the sp1160 its the same way after you change the battery your slot machine turns into a change machine do you do the same thing to get your slot machine working correctly by pushing the inside button to 2.1 and turning the reset to 5.1 I don't have it installed but I have had issues with using this type before.

same thing, but you don't have the volume setting which is between those two settings on a 16mhz board.
