    							QUICK REFERENCE CABINET LINKING INSTRUCTIONS
    To link two cabinets, use the crossover coupler included in the spare parts bag. Connect the
    factory installed linking cable to the coupler and follow the instructions for “W iring Modifications
    and Software Setup” located below starting with step #7.
    To link three or more cabinets, use a standard 10 base-T ethernet hub and follow all of the
    instructions for “W iring Modifications and Software Setup” located below.
    CABINET ARRAYS
    To create a Video Game Machine (VGM) Array, join the cabinets together. Each VGM comes equipped with the
    necessary hardware to connect cabinets and provide maximum stability. Hardware is located in the spare parts
    bag inside the cash box.
    To join cabinets, remove the flat-head carriage bolts from the top and rear of adjacent cabinet sides. Position
    cabinets next to one another and adjust the leg levelers until all holes are aligned. Insert long carriage bolts
    through the holes in both cabinets, and then fasten in place with the nuts provided.
    NETWORK CONSIDERATIONS
    Each VGM comes complete with a factory installed network cable. Optionally, a hub can be installed and located
    remotely to monitor network activity. Cables up to 328 ft., or 100 meters, in length may be used in conjunction with
    the hub provided they are Category 3 or higher, 100 ohm unshielded twisted pair communications grade wiring.
    Standard telephone cables are not sufficient for this application and should not be used.
    Take care to protect exposed wiring from player foot traffic, cleaning crews, service personnel, etc. Use approved
    conduit or wire channels to support cables. Please note that modular connectors do not have strain relief.
    Prevent linking cables from becoming damaged by avoiding sources of extreme heat or moisture, and high
    amounts of electrical energy like neon signs, fluorescent fixtures, two-way radios, cordless phones, power circuits,
    public address system wiring, etc.
    Universal RJ-45 modular plugs are not numbered or coded in any way. Clearly label all network connections to
    avoid confusing network cables with computer or telephone circuits.
    WIRING MODIFICATIONS AND SOFTWARE SETUP
    1.  Place the linking hub inside the base of a cabinet nearest the center of the array. Remember that the crossover
    couplers supplied with the game are not used when creating an array using the hub. Crossover couplers are
    only used to link two cabinets.
    2.  Unlock and remove the rear door from the cabinets selected to be part of the array. Inside the cabinet you will
    find a coil of linking cable with one end already attached to game electronics. Uncoil just enough of the cable to
    reach the hub, then recoil the rest of the cable and tie it in place. Repeat this procedure for each of the other
    cabinets. Do not reinstall the cabinet door(s) at this time.
    3.  Route the free end of each cable out through the notch located in the rear door opening and plug into any jack
    on the rear panel of the linking hub. Route the free end of the AC adapter for the hub and plug it into the 9VAC
    jack on the front panel of the hub. Now all of the cables can be connected to the hub.
    4.  Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions in order to set the hub switches for LNK (link) and X (crossover) activity.
    5.  Fasten the hub to the bottom of the most central cabinet using a hook-and-loop type material. Orient the hub so
    that the indicator lights are visible and cable jacks are accessible.
    6.  Make sure excess cable is tied into a coil and that all cables are routed through the notch in the rear door.
    Connect the AC adapter for the hub and all line cords to AC power.
    CAUTION: 
    Do not connect or disconnect any cable to the game electronics or hub with
    the power turned on. Circuit disruptions may damage the game and void the warranty. 
    						
    							7.  Switch on power and closely observe the screen for each cabinet during start up. Each automatically enters
    ATTRACT MODE if no errors are found.  Refer to Troubleshooting in the operation manual if errors are
    detected.
    8.  Unlock the coin door for each cabinet to access the operator control buttons inside coin vault. Press and hold
    the TEST button to enter the menu system.
    ¾  Check the EPROM, GUTS, and MAIN information at the bottom of each game’s SELF TEST menu screen.
    ¾  Verify linked games have compatible software versions. Newer versions may contain instructions previous
    versions do not, causing games to halt or reset at random.
    ¾  Repeat this and all remaining steps for each linked cabinet.
    9.  Press the View 1 or View 2 button to select GAME OPTIONS. Press the ABORT button to activate this item. Set
    the CABINET #; keeping in mind that each cabinet must have its own individual and unique number. The first
    cabinet on the left is always cabinet 1, the second is cabinet 2, etc.
    10.  Select NETW ORK TESTS then press the ABORT button to activate it. Observe all linked cabinets will be listed
    in this screen. Refer to Menu System descriptions in the manual for more details.
    11.  Select CONTROLS TESTS. Follow on-screen instructions to confirm proper control operation. Press and hold
    the TEST button to reset steering wheel and pedal travel limits.
    12.  Select SOUND TESTS. Confirm operation of all cabinet and seat speakers, and each amplifier.
    13.  Select MONITOR TESTS. Perform all tests and adjustments to ensure high quality video.
    14.  Close and lock the coin door, and reinstall and lock the rear door for each cabinet. Lower the leg levelers for
    each cabinet until the casters do not touch the floor and the cabinets are level. Lock the levelers in position by
    tightening the nuts provided.

    Be sure board connectors mate properly.  If connectors do not slip on easily, do not force them.  A
    reversed connector may damage the VGM and void the warranty.  Connector keys only allow a
    connector to fit one set of pins on a board.CAUTION: USE CARE WHEN SHIPPING HARD DISKS.
    The hard disk drive must be packed in an anti-static bag.  When shipping the drive for repair or
    replacement, pack it in an approved container (P/N 08-8068).  Do not stack or drop hard disk
    drives. 
    						
    							Operation - 3WARNING: HAZARD TO EPILEPTICS.
    A very small portion of the population has a condition which may cause them to experience
    epileptic seizures or have momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain kinds of
    flashing lights or patterns that are present in our daily environment.  These persons may
    experience seizures while watching some kinds of television pictures or playing certain video
    games.  People who have not had any previous seizures may nonetheless have an undetected
    epileptic condition.
    If you or anyone in your family has experienced symptoms linked to an epileptic condition (e.g.,
    seizures or loss of awareness), immediately consult your physician before using any video games.
    We recommend that parents observe their children while they play video games.  If you or your
    child experience the following symptoms: dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitching,
    involuntary movements, loss of awareness, disorientation, or convulsions, DISCONTINUE USE
    IMMEDIATELY and consult your physician.
