IGT S2000 Triple Double Diamond

That is the place to change it you may have to clear if the key chip did not let you in.
Sas should be set to std and security should be none.

Check this post from Ohio Gaming it should help you sort out most of the settings so you don't have to keep keying the machine.

Actually the guy I bought this machine lives in Cedar Hill Texas. Works out of his garage. Paid $300 for it. Wouldn't mind selling for $400 as is. plus freight.

[qbert]

Your almost there don't give up yet
a few small issues and you should be good to go.
The 4th reel tilt should not be a big deal. We will help you get up and running.

[jacker]

What do you do when "version unknown" will not change?
What do you do when at 7.2.2.1 enable/disable printer and all I get is Disabled printer?

[CVslots]

You can only set these after doing a clear.

Have you been taking notes of everything you need to set when you do a Clear and a Key? There are several things that must be set to get the game to operate correctly.

I know you were getting frustrated, and I'm sorry. As you are seeing, it's a very methodical process and every time you use the clear chip, ALL the settings are removed and must be reset. If I were you (which, of course, I am not, so you dont have to listen to me!), I would make a list of the settings as I flipped through the menus and then post any questions you may have before re-doing the Clear and Key.

Got the list!  When I get to these two problems they remain problems can get around them. MUST be another way or procedure, of which I don't know what it is.

[qbert]

When you get version unknown hit the spin reels button to change to Wamm

[jacker]

Have pressed the spin reels buttons probably 10 times, even backed out and back into it. Will not change

[qbert]

Is this the case right after you have used the key chip?
If you have gotten out of the 7 series of numbers and returned you will not be able to change the 7.1.4.
I know this is frustrating as hell..
Run your key chip and go right to 7.1.4 and you should be able to change from unknown to WAMM with a few button pushes.
when you get it to WAMM hit the play max credit button to save.
Take a look at this post wireless also had some issues setting 7.1.4..
I'm pretty sure if you key it when you get to 7.1.4.1 the spin reels will be lit.
press the spin reels button until you get to WAMM and save with max credit button.

Yea it was down the list of things to do. I will again clear and key hip again and will do this first.
Thanks rich

Wait, wait, wait!!! Each time you clear a machine, you erase EVERY setting in the machine and it defaults back to factory (which will NOT allow the game to run in a home setting).

The menus will not allow you to "back up" and re-do a setting (some menus will allow it, but lets not argue that right now). You must set each setting as you progress through the menus! Unfortunately, for so may of the menus, there is no going back.

So, if you have already done most of your settings, if you Clear and Key again, you must re-do ALL of your settings. If you ONLY Key chip your machine (to get to the 7.1-7.2 menus), them you can go in with just a Key chip), then the it will allow you access to the Key Vhip menu (7.1-7.2). It is 2 different gigs entirely.

[jacker]

Got the WAMM set. Thanks.   I am hoping the only problem is the " REEL 4 TILT" is along with closure M and call attendant. I guess the closure M will go away when I start play. What to do bout the Reel 4 tilt?

[jacker]

How can this machine have a reel 4 tilt when there are only three reels

[CVslots]

You either have a 5 reel harness installed or a jumper plug missing in the main wire harness near the motherboard.

Turn off the machine and pull the reels out (just grab by the reel number sticker at the bottom of the reel strip and pull, sometimes they take a little bit of muscle to get them out). At the back of where the reels were, there is a bar with openings where the reel plugs come through and each reel plugs in. Look at the harness itself and see how many reel plugs it has. They were made in 2 styles, one with 3 reel plugs/connectors and one with 5 reel plugs/connectors. You will mainly be concerned about plugs/connectors to the right of the 3rd (most right) reel. If its a 5 reel harness, you will find 2 connectors hanging around back there. 

Lets hope you find 2 extra plugs, as thats an easy fix. If you get stuck, just snap a pic and we'll help you through it.

Good luck and report back!

[jacker]

Just 3 connectors behind reels. I am going to send picts of the motherboard and where the reels are placed, as soon as I figure out how to do this

[qbert]

OK lets check a couple of things. Turn the machine off pull the reels out and look at the harness that the reels plug into. Looking into the machine follow the harness past where the third reel plugs in. It should go to a circuit card on the right side of the machine and plug into this card in two places. Now are there any open plugs that look like the plug where third reel is plugged into between the third reel plug and the circuit card on the right side? There should be none. If you have two more open plugs, this is a five reel harness, and a replacement is an easy fix.

This is a Triple Double Diamond. I believe you said it was a 9 line machine. What is the Max credits playable and the top award?
I'm asking this to be sure you have the correct SB game chip. If you could pull out the MPU (one more time) and tell us what the number is on the chip that you remove when you do your clear or key operation. It should be:
SB100862 for a 45 credit with 10,000 top award
SB100863 for a 90 credit with 20,000 top award
SB100856 for a 180 credit with 40,000 top award
If it is not one of these SB chips this may also be the problem (again an easy fix)  

If you could post a few pictures of the harness for the reels that ma help us also.

Rich

[jacker]

Yes 9 line max playable is 180 credits....
Stepper  base  R
SB 101254
(1-4002)
2006 IGT
Hope this is the problem

[qbert]

No more bets we have a winner!!!!
That is the wrong chip
SB101254 is a Triple stars/Triple Butterfly/Triple Lucky Sevens 4 Reel 1L 3CR  22,500 Max pay

You need the SB100856 Post a WTB or go back to your original guy and get him to replace it.

The bad news is you may have to go through rekeying the machine after you replace the chip.

[jacker]

Great! I'll have to post a WTB, cause well that guy is a disaster.
Hope this works and as soon as I find one, I will let you guys know...THANK YOU

[cowboygames]

So there are no extra plugs like the ones your reels plug into? Just those three?
I also notice you have the requisite two pin jumper above your power distribution module so that's not causing the problem

[CVslots]

We've got 2 threads going here. He posted in the WAMM thread that he has a SB chip for a 4 reel machine. I think this case is closed. 

[qbert]

Sorry guys should have redirected back to this post.
When he gets the correct chip we'll finish this out.
Thanks
Rich

Thanks, Roz.

I've merged the two threads into one topic.  Jacker: in the future, please just use one thread for the same issue with the same machine -- it will keep everyone on the same page and prevent different people from going through the same troubleshooting steps that have already been done in a different thread.  Thanks.

[jacker]

ok learning a bunch from yall

[jacker]

Finally!  Thanks GBERT  installed it and the machine will accept quarters, spin and pay to the credits. So far I can not get the hopper or bill acceptor to work. The hopper flashed "hopper empty". I do have some quarters in it but will get $30 - $40 more shortly.. Bill acceptor initializes, but has solid red light and blinking blue light. Also have 2 led's burn out in the 9 line payouts...( line 1 and 3 ). I would like to address the hopper issue, then I can play it while working on the others. Must I go to a different thread to find help with the hopper?
