I am pleased to announce that we are releasing the Bettor TITO "Deluxe".  We are taking new orders until all current stock is diminished and starting a wait list for new stock expected to be arriving in only a few weeks time.

For those of you that purchased our Bettor TITO "Original" product, you are eligible for a FREE upgrade to the new Deluxe product.    Please understand we potentially have hundreds of upgrades possible and cannot handle a barrage of tech support at one time.  The logical result and the way we will be handling the Free upgrades will be as follows.  We will be starting a queue based on the date of original order and contacting you via email.  We will be contacting 10 or more individuals per week as necessary until all upgrades have been delivered and setup properly.  I appreciate your patience as we get through this process.

How do I go about ordering?  I'd like to buy one.  Also, how far away are we from being able to use a rewards card to add credits with the magnetic strip reader?

Just installed 3 Bettor TITO boards yesterday!!! Took me all of a 1/2 hour.. it was a cinch.. Then I couldn't wait for Jim so I had to connect the boards to use the deluxe features.. TOTALLY AWESOME!!! I feel like I am controlling my own casino!!! The feature's are great... lock them down, add credits, change your messages on the tickets...

These Bettor TITO boards are the best thing since sliced bread!!! Totally worth the money!!!

I completely agree.  Got mine installed as well.  So easy and very cool.  There is also a new feature (well, not a feature, more like a... Hmmmm...) being worked on to compliment the Tito, but not sure Jim wants me to say anything about it yet, so I could tell you but would have to kill you... Lol.  Stay tuned.  Unless Jim want to announce what I'm working on.

If Jim kills you It would only hurt for a while   Be nice to hear some news on this. This topic / tread has been pretty slow recently.

Well I just finished installing 3 Bettor Tito's and they are so much fun. I installed printers and everything. It took a little bit because the first machine had a printer issue that I was not aware of and thought I was doing something wrong. The rest of the machines went by like a snap.  Two s2000 and one Alpha.

The only problem was I almost gave my poor Ma a heart attack. I printed out a stack of 500.00 credit printouts. I showed them to her not realizing she forgot all about me doing this with my machines. She thought that they came from a real casino and almost fainted.

Attention, the Bettor TITO can be dangerous for the health!!!

my friend just installed tito on his 3  s2000's and the only difference he noticed is when the tickets go in his machines they make no chime...... kind strange i thought all s2000's make that ticket in chime when you stick  tickets in them

[Bettor Slots]

My understanding is that sound his controlled by the SB chip.  When cash money, a coin, or a ticket is inserted, the software design says "play that sound".  This is why on some games they will make different sounds based on the bill size you put in the machine...I think Tabasco does that...probably others.

[staz]

were running similar games thats why i found it strange.......that it chimes on mine and not his.....

Similar or the same SB chip ?

[staz]

at ome time i was using the same sb chip.........

[Bettor Slots]

Put your old SB back in and see what it does to verify.  I would then start comparing sound simm DSV number as well.

[staz]

thats where im guessing his issue is he is using a older simm he might need to upgrade his simms..... but then i poped in the older sim in my machine and i still get a chime.....could it be in his settings?

[Bettor Slots]

Staz....you know enough by now this is not a setting issue...take it up with IGT 

[staz]

lol could it be a tito issue? my tito is the old old style.......

[Bettor Slots]

Anything's possible, but I have had plenty of other S2000's that do not make a sound when the ticket is inserted.  So why do some work and some don't?  Can't be TITO related in my mind.  This is the game software designer forgetting to add the code that says "make this sound" when a ticket is inserted.

In your particular case, the only way to confirm what you say is to put in matching software with the older generation TITO and see the results....or vice versa, update your buddies software.  Seems logical that older software, especially the game your are talking about might have anomalies with the sound since many early generation S2000's had strange things going on with sound...or lack of sound.

I just wanted to confirm that I got my Bettor TITO to work on my IGT AVP 2.0 with Game King 6.2.

The first challenge is finding WHERE to plug in TITO, which is behind the ticket printer and behind a metal plate.
If you remove the printer and unscrew the plate, you'll possibly find two cards plugged into the backplane: one is RS-232 (you'll recognize the plug).
Make sure that is plugged into the COM1 slot on the backplane.  Mine was in COM2.
Then, follow all the normal procedures for setting up Bettor TITO.

NOTE: This is the ORIGINAL Bettor TITO as I have yet to upgrade.

Gotta love the TITO.  Even if not for the networking and web interface controls, which I hardly use, it's worth it just to get your machine to accept tickets.  The only feature I would change is to find a way to add card reader support, so we could get a magnetic strip reader/writer and create our own player tracking cards.  I'm actually surprised as long as the S2000 platform and above have been out, that nobodys been able to either create a device to do that, or copy some casino issued software that can tie into a player tracking interface.  I have a player tracking setup in my S2000... it's actually a Bally unit, but powers my LCD screen in the tracking bar and such... I think everything is there to tie into casino network software for player tracking... just missing the software, and obviously any instructions to network the box.  It has an ethernet port, so shouldn't be hard to figure out.  Just have to hook it up to the card reader and pin pad, and obviously find the software.  We need a Nevada casino IT guy with access to the disks to read this post (hint, hint, wink, wink)

So I have a converted WMS 550 cabinet.  Essentially it is a bluebird minus certain features, so I figure, why not give it a try.  So I set out and made a harness from the HOST connector on the backplane to the TITO board.  The result is that it works as it does on a bluebird cabinet.  I can add credits using the network function.  It reads TITO tickets printed on the other machines.  I did not test the mute and disable machine functions, but I see no reason why it shouldn't as everything else does.  So if anybody wants to add it to their cabinet, here is the harness I made.  Basically you connect TD, RD, and GND from the backplane to the same pins on a standard RS-232 pins (2,3 and 5) and you are good to go.
