Hi i got a CHAM II meter... logic board... and power supply and the cables to hooks them all up..

Im missing the piggy back board.. but im going to be getting one...

There is the one plug on the logic board that has the two black ears.. i have that wire also and it plugs right in... im assuming the other end goes to the s2000 machine some how... however the other end of my cable is just cut off.. there are three wires... red.. black.. white..

Does anyone know how to hook this up or if i need anything else? Thanks

You need the ChamII+ board and ribbon cable to connect to the meter.
check the upload a new file section for a Mikohn ChamII manual.

I have the board and cables, from the boards interface port that hooks to the s2000, I don't know the wiring for that... Is it the same as the s+ in the manual or different?

Does anyone know how the 3 wires form the interface port wires into the s2000? i know there has to be someone with this display hooked to a s2000 machine.. I have a red, white and black wire in the cable... Thanks

ok on the chame J7 on the row that is away from edge is pins 1 3 5 7 9 11 13

on the motherboard of s2000 J15 on all of mine but some have said its J85, but i have never seen the J85 one. bottom is pin 1

cham pin 13 to MB pin 2
cham pin 11 to MB pin 1
cham pn 3 to MB pin 3

you will also most likely need to program the cham using the psp software and connection a pc or laptop serial port 1 or 2 only to the cham serial port

pc pin 2 to cham pin 2
pc pin 3 to cham pin 3
pc pin 5 to cham pins 1 and 5

if your lucky the psp program will mysteriously appear in the submit a new file section

mine didnt since it was a linked progressive with other machines (all machines had same progressive amount
yours will most likely have to be redone to be standalone on the cham and linked in the s2000

The connectors that I use for the MB on S+ are from Mouser Electronics

You can find them here:

Here's the Vision mobo connector diagram, I believe S2000 is the same. As you stated, it's J15, there is no J85.

Thanks for the tip on the connector.. i just happen to have a gutted computer and that cable worked great... however no luck on getting the display to work... all it says is "$0.00" and then it says "C1"

In the options it says Progressive is disabled.. i cant enable it... i put in my Key 31 chip into the game EPROM location and when it the game boot up all it says is NETPLEX is Down... and doesnt go any further... Any ideas... i appreciate the help here alot.. thanks for bearing with me...

I have not tried this before, but I thought of the usual "make sure there are no credits on the machine advice."

Also did you do a NETPLEX AUTO CONFIG from the setup menu?

Just a few tired thoughts.. I am sure that someone has much better suggestions and directions.

I don't know S2000 but here are a few things that may help point you in the right direction.

A ChamII+ is not a Netplex device ... on a S+ this is considered a linked progressive (even though it is standalone). I believe (not absolutely sure)  that there are Netplex progressives that integrate different than the ChamII+

The C1 is however indicitive that it is not talking to the slot specifically the data return.

The 0.00 and other values, messages etc get programmed via vi a PC running the DOS program called PSP.
Though PSP you set:
      Base Amount (the amount the progressive reverts to before after it is won) - normally this is about equal to the top award.
      Current Amount - this is any value you want but generally it is equal or above the base amount.
      Incremental percentage - I use 4% this way each quarter gets me a penny on the display .... casinos use any where between 1/8 of this ---- 8 coins = 1c to 100 coins = 1c depending on how active the progressived is.

     There are lots of other cool things to play with in PSP as well but those are the main ones..

I am trying to hook up the same thing. Does the CHAMII+ require a CON1 or CON2 to run in a S-2000? Scratch Head

That clears it up for me, that's why all the settings are done with a key chip in the S-2000....... Duh!

Thanks zarobhr!

A CHAMII (non plus) is a link only and requires a CON2 to drive it.
A CHAMII+ can be set into linked mode and be driven from a CON2 as well.

A CON1 to the best of my knowledge can not drive a ChamII.

Great point Jay, I did not pay enough attention to the CHAM II+ in the title, and I assumed it was the netplex spectrum meter because of Tom's mention of netplex. I should have looked better!  Duh! frying pan Thanks for catching that! applause
