Do you have a "31" key chip and a "97" clear chip?  I suspect a clear/key procedure may need to be performed.  When a battery goes by the wayside, the CMOS may be screwed up.  If nothing else works, this would be something I would suggest.

I can't really think of any other avenues to pursue.  Others may chime in with additional ideas.

Good luck!  Smiley

There's 2 batteries on the S2k board, the green one that monitors door status, etc., while the machine is off, and the coin battery, which backs up all the memory stuff. You can do without the green battery, but not the coin battery. The coin battery is probably the dead one, what does it read with a voltmeter?

Should be a round lithium battery..should be reading 3.4-3.5 volts..

Max  The round battery's are rated at 3 volts, you will find a new one will read a little over 3 volts, but I think 3.5 is pushing it.

I am just going on our batteries, I always check them before I install them, as sometimes they arrive low...I usually get a reading of 3.4-3.5. Now I can't speak for any other situation, just ours..we get our batteries from Suzo-Happ...

You know what, Buzz, I never really ever gave it a second thought until we brought it up here about the voltage, ...looks like I will have to try another meter, never thought that the meter might be a little out of whack, because with every new batch, I have been getting consistent readings of 3.41 to 3.5. Thanks for bringing this up, will try another meter today..

While we are on the subject, let me ask you this...I am used to land-based casinos. This is the first boat I have worked on. We sail everyday but Monday. Tuesday Morning, we always have "Main Battery Low" issues. Now, I realize that the boat has no earth ground, but on Mondays we are on shoreside power...what do you think could be causing this? This is an ongoing problem..

Max  You will have to get one of the Wiz-Kids to ans. that question. First thing that came to mind was, when I was in the US Navy they told me " your never futher than one mile from land, it's straight down " water conducts electricity.

Anything I've ever read is a slot machine battery is not on a charging circuit. As a test if I had one machine that seemed to give me a lot of battery problems, next Sunday night I would pull the wall plug and see if that makes a difference.

I don't the machine's being on boat is a problem with grounding.
If that were a related case in any way, then all of the vessel's navigation electronics would be getting dead CMOS batteries as well.
I'm sure they don't lose their settings when the power is turned on to them.

There was another steamboat captain on here a couple years ago but I don't remember f he had any battery problems.
I think all he was asking was if it was okay to put banks of machines on a single power switch such as surge control switches.
He was tired of opening every machine to turn them on or off all the time.
I think the answer was just to flip the circuit breakers on or off as desired and that would be fine.

If this helps, I run Casino boats and we turn them on and off sometimes 2-3 times a day. We seem to replace a lot of batteries, but I am not sure if that's not normal...
