Title: Bally 5000 - problem after keypad connection Post by: mctuerk on April 04, 2010, 07:39:47 PM Connected the keypad to change the credit type option and pressed keybd/clr.
All digits of the vacuum display went on and the two mpu-led keep blinking at high frequency. Turned the machine off and restarted- no reset- no start. :8- I tried to do a ram clear – but nothing happens –the led keep blinking and the display burns brightly. Thanks for any help :131- Title: Re: Bally 5000 - problem after keypad connection Post by: MarkInAz on April 07, 2010, 04:31:05 AM Hi mctuerk,
One tip is look to see that the CPU piggyback board is firmly plugged in. Is your machine a 5000 or 5000 Plus? Which method did you use to perform the RAM clear? Mark Title: Re: Bally 5000 - problem after keypad connection Post by: mctuerk on April 07, 2010, 09:02:25 PM Hi Mark,
it's a 5000 (vacuum display) i have two of them. i just bought the keypad and used it for the first time.i'm afraid that i used the wrong one because someone on ebay offers a 5000 keypad that looks different from my keypad. here is what i used - is it the wrong one? :103- to clear the ram i always removed j1 to j14 (working with both machines) manfred Title: Re: Bally 5000 - problem after keypad connection Post by: MarkInAz on April 08, 2010, 05:40:54 AM Hay Manfred,
Sorry but I don't have any experience with the 5000 but in my 5000plus manual they show the keypad & it looks exactly like yours. I see the one on Ebay & the seller said "3rd party keypad" so I assume its not a genuine Bally. Maybe someone else here on NLG can confirm that for us. BTW- do you have a 5000 manual & does it give you the programming procedure? The 5000plus has one & it may be similar if not identical.
