Title: Monte Carlo Optioning Codes
Post by: Worldwide Gaming on July 29, 2010, 04:35:55 PM
Greets again everyone!

We just picked up a number of Monte Carlo machines and there's a ton of additional optioning codes under the 11d menu that aren't covered in the regular S6000, Monte Carlo, or Progressive manuals...    :103-

The mains are: S6M1DS7C008-00 ST
The games are: E872311X-05 2244 ST

Does anyone have a full list of codes they could post or email?

There's a virtual beer in it for ya!

Thanks in advance
-Karsten

Karsten,
I don't have any info on Monte Carlo machines but if I did, I'd send you my copies in a heartbeat.
As a machine dealer - won't the big shot companies offer you
technical documentation should you request for it?
Just wondering.... :129-

They don't give us access precisely because we are a dealer!  Why help us eat into their potential sales?

These Monte Carlo's are driving me nuts!

lol...I understand your point of view!
Doesn't really make sense though - they don't sell machines to
homeowners in legal states though? Do they?
I thought they only deal with casinos.
Which of course brings up another question>>>
Do any of these big shot companies sell machines to a legal state homeowner?

WWG,

We are more than pleased to share info that we have (that is what this site is all about) but if you do get the codes before someone else on this site comes up with them please remember that part of being a good member here is giving back and we would like very much that you post your pool of knowledge to benefit others also.

Knowledge has no value if not shared.

I agree completely!  As usual, anything I come across related to a topic I'm on gets posted.

What I know so far:

According to the Monte Carlo manual (it's really just an addendum with a bunch of schematics and a couple paragraphs of DIP switch and Optioning code settings); SW4 & SW6 on DS1 must be set to off.  This goes against suggestions already posted to NLG by others with Monte Carlo's.

The DS positions were as follows (this is how they were set coming from the casino):

DS1 - 11010101
DS2 - 00101011
DS3 - 11111111

Here's the list of unknown optioning codes (also casino settings):

79H - 0
79L - 0
82 - 1
83 - 1
84 - 1
85 - 1
86 - 1
87 - 1
88 - 1
96 - 1
12 - 0
90 - 0
91 - 0
95 - 0
73 - 3
76 - 0
61 - 2
81 - 0
74 - 0
77A - 1.48
77B - 1.31
77C - 1.4E
8 - 0
5 - 0
20 - 1
23 - 0
92 - 0
98 - 1
99 - 0
69 - 0
19H - 0
19L - 0
17 - 0
24 - 0
30H - 9999
30L - 0

Side note:  Oddly enough, some of the boards from the casino still had the U24 chip in them as well...

Hi Karsten,
   There are several different Monte Carlo machines, some single spin, some multi spin, which do you have?  The single spin can be set up to print tickets and work fantastically.  These are the ones the Monte section of the manual is for.  The multi spin machines require newer mains and have some different settings.

Thanks,
Wayne

The multi spin machines require newer mains and have some different settings.

I've got one of the single spin, the rest are multi.  The mains are current, so no issues there (2008 versions).

There are a few other codes I missed in the list as well - but you get the idea.  There's a ton of new codes on the new mains and no documentation on what the hell they mean!

your dip switch settings (as listed) should be fine, most of the settings you listed are not required.  
important settings if progressive
02 = 4(sometimes 5)
07 = 1
78LO = 1
06 = 0255

no chip in u24 if progressive.  casino likely swapped boards.

I have a lot of paper docs that I go through now and then.  I find something new every time.

If you need any deeper info on a specific setting, please let me know.
 I have been ill for 2 weeks and am on antibiotics now, so hopefully I have more patience to type longer.  It helps that my computer is not sick anymore

84 - 1  progressive
85 - 1  legacy bonusing
86 - 1  validation (tito)
87 - 1  tournament

96 - 1 filtering of sas polls
17 - 0   set sas version  0= 5.01, 1=6.01
24 - 0  0= don't print promotional vouchers, 1 = print promo vouchers
30H - 9999

Thanks all!
