Title: Sigma SG300 - Wire Message
Post by: jimmy c on October 17, 2010, 06:31:11 PM
I have a SIGMA SG300 slot machine and this problem is driving me over the edge!  I have an error message WIRE OF METERS DISCONNECTED - PLEASE CALL ATTENDANT".  I have never seen this message before.
I've check all the wiring and everything seems to be working.  I have "0" in the Winner Paid and 4,293 credits available.  Can anybody give me a hint as to what might be wrong.  Thanks!

I believe the error is referring to the hard meters being disconnected.
I would check the wiring to the hard meters.
If they have been removed and jumper installed maybe the jumper may have come loose.

The meters have never been disconnected.  I was wiping down the machine and bumped it and then this message appeared.

If you think the mech. meters are good, then check the 50 ribbon coming from the MPU board CN2 and going to the main distribution PCB board on the main door...Look for pin holes or cuts in the ribbon...If good, check CN25 on the same board...That is the feed to the meters...Make sure it is seated...Hope this helps...

Buy DeOxit at RS and spray all the connectors and harnesses on the end where they make contact, this stuff really works well.

I tried the spray and that doesn't help.  Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I know it is probably real simple, but I can't figure it outW

FYI....That would be SW2 post 10    ON=Enabled OFF=Disabled
Also you might want to check if +12vdc is at the meters...they are ground activated (if I remember right)...Double check schematic...

 :88- Thanks for the DIP setting

PS,as I said,I do not have access to my manuals,but maybe someone could chime in...You need to turn off the security setting. Think it was DIP 6 :103-

SW2-post 6 is correct for security enable/disable...Must not have any credits on machine...
