Title: Game Maker 7200 series manual(s) for a first timer.
Post by: AsUWish on February 19, 2010, 08:58:30 PM
Greetings.  I am a first timer with slots.  I just purchased a Bally Game Maker 7200 series.  I would love it if someone could repost the manuals (all of them if possible), but at least the operating manual if anyone has them.  I've read other posts regarding this, but it seems the file section has been purged recently and they are no longer available.  I just received the machine yesterday.  It works great and I'm loving it.  Are there any settings I should document once I get the manual(s) and start going through the setup screens?  Any other ideas of what I should be doing as a first timer would be appreciated as well.  I've been reading a lot about changing games too... that's pretty cool!  I'll be diving into that in the future.  But for now... let's just start with the manual(s) and any basics that I should be tending to.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks for having this awesome site!!!

Welcome to NLG.  The best suggestion I can give is to run the "EEPROM CHECKSUM" found by accessing the "MEMORY TEST".

Theses are the settings you have now and your machine works fine. When you do a total clear, these settings will have to be reentered. Having these settings written down will save time.

Thanks everyone!!!  I got the manuals and the list of games.  You are awesome!!!  Yes... I am having fun with the new toy... got a straight flush on "Let it Ride" (I had only taken back one of the bets too).  It set off the bells and played, "I'm in the money!"  How come that never happens to me in Vegas???  I hope to get a second board so I can add 10 new games (by simply changing out the board) in the future, as I've read in other posts that other users have done.  I'll probably end up asking for advice on this in a future post.  Anyway, here are my current EEPROM settings as Ricker/Richard had suggested... do these seem correct?  Also (and I know I could probably find this in the 200+ pages of manuals you sent me) but is it easy to turn on the "Double Down" feature?  Any thing else I should do to care for my new baby before I dive into adding boards and changing games?

Anyway of getting this manual? We have a Bally game maker that we don't have a manul for, and we are having  problems with our monitors.
Thanks in advance.
