DO NOT use a cheater plug to defeat the ground pin on the line cord, and DO NOT cut off the groundpin.WHEN THE GAME IS FIRST TURNED ON it produces a sound.  Simultaneously general illumination should come onand a moment later a scanning “rug pattern” indicating the RAM test should appear on the screen.  Next the rug shouldbecome stationary as the ROM test is performed.  In a correctly running game the rug pattern will be followed by themessage INITIAL CHECKS INDICATE ALL SYSTEMS GO.  If RAM or ROM failure messages come up on the screeninstead, refer to Power-Up Tests in TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES.GAME OPERATIONGAME START - Insert coins; a random sound is produced and credits are displayed on the CRT.  With two or more creditsdisplayed, pressing 2-player start initiates a 2-player game where each player gets five* mounts (turns).*Adjustable Feature 
						

							2PLAYER CONTROLSThe Joystick sends the gladiator and his ever stalwart mount (ostrich or stork) boldly to the left or to the right.The Flap Button causes the hero’s mount to spread its robust wings.GAME PLAYAT SOME FAR-DISTANT TIME two fantastic gladiators meet and square off for battle.  Each is mounted on a fancifulbird of prey (ostrich or stork) who’s wings can carry it from the cliftops to the mouth of the abyss and hopefully back . . . orthe bubbling lava below will increase it’s toll.While your mount is a skilled flyer, your opponent is a shrewd gladiator.  You must prove you are his better.  Stealthily youmust pilot your mount above him, and cleverly you must stalk him . . . to strike at the moment he least suspects you!  Andalways remember this rule: In every Joust, the highest lance wins!Of course your opponent will resist your attempts, all the while pursuing his own designs on you.  Each gladiator has five*mounts.  Every time you’re toppled you must mount a new bird for the next joust.  The gladiator who scores the mostdismountings is the winner.YOUR PATH MAY SEEM CLEAR and your work cut out, but just them a flock of vicious Buzzard-Riders will ambushyou!  Ruthless even as they are dismounted, these wily Buzzard-Riders instantly lay their eggs.  You must pick up the eggsor they will soon hatch into even more persistent and antagonistic foes!Fortunately at 20,000* points (should you make the grade) you will be awarded another bird to mount against the loyalopposition.Joust is designed for either one or two players.HIGH SCORE SIGNATURESelect letters with the joystick.  Push right to move forward through the alphabet; push left to move backward.  Then pushthe FLAP button to lock in the letter.BOOKKEEPING AND EVALUATION TOTALS1.In Game-Over Mode, open the cashbox and depress the cashbox advance switch.  The advance switch located on thecoin door can also be used.  The CRT should indicate all bookkeeping and evaluation totals.  If so, go to step 3.

Difficulty is factory-programmed at 5 (moderate).  It can be custom-programmed (0-9, with 9 conservative) as desired.Game pricing is selected with standard settings or with custom settings as shown in Tables 1 & 2. Table 1 lists somecommon pricing schemes and directs the reader to the proper entry in Table 2, which shows what the CRT display shouldlook like to accomplish the desired pricing.  Note that free play can be elected by entering the code number 9 at thePRICING SELECTION function (see Tables 1 and 2).For standard settings you need change only the PRICING SELECTION.

							6TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURESCertain types of game malfunctions may inhibit the gamesdiagnostic or display faculties.  Troubleshooting proceduresfor most of these types of malfunctions as well asmalfunctions that permit self-diagnosis are covered below.Our troubleshooting algorithm begins with Power-Upand continues until Game Over Mode.  All procedurescan be performed with minimal test equipment or merelyby observing the game itself.POWER-UP TESTSNO GENERALILLUMINATIONNO INITIAL VIDEO(RUG PATTERN)CHECKING POWERSUPPLY BOARD(1) Check fuse F2 on power supply board.(2) Check for proper installation ofjumpers W1, W2, W3 and/or resistorR27. (Some machines DO NOT have anR27. Refer to your drawing set.)(3) Check 4P1/J I, 4P3/J3, 6P2/J2 and6P3/J3.(4) If all the above dont turn up theproblem check power supply board.(1) Open back doors(2) Press reset button on CPU Board.(3) Try RAM and ROM tests (see below).(4) If all the above dont turn up theproblem, check power supply board.(1) Swap power supply board with one fromknown-good game.(2) If game plays, problem is on powersupply board.(3) If game doesnt play, check powertransformer with voltmeter.(4) If known-good power supply isunavailable for tests above, check +5V, – 5Vand + 12V outputs on power supply in game.Each MUST BE within 2% of rated outputwith less than 0.1% AC hum.MORE POWER-UP TESTSTESTROM BOARDLEDsRECOGNIZECONDITIONROM BOARDLEDsIDENTIFYCHIPSVIDEOREMEDYGENERAL“0” means allpower-up testspassed-(1) Scanning rug pattern(2) Stationary rug pattern(3) INITIAL CHECKS INDICATE ALLSYSTEMS GO(4) Game-Over ModeIf any video (see left) is missing orerror message is displayed, proceedto Diagnostic Mode tests.“0” means testspassed-“HIGH SCORE TABLE RESET”“BOOKKEEPING TOTALS CLEARED”“ADJUSTMENT FAILURE”“RESTORE FACTORY SEITINGS BYOPENING FRONT DOOR ORTABLETOP  AND TURNING GAMEOFF AND ON”(1) Open coin door and turn poweroff and on.CMOS(SeeAppendix A)“0” means testspassed-“FACTORY SEITINGS RESTORED”(2) Press ADVANCE.

							7+5v DC ADJUSTMENT (R10 & R24)Before adjusting the voltage output, always check the output at the supply for AC hum.  This hum should never riseabove 0.005v on the +5v DC supply.  If it does, consult your schematic drawing set for proper DC voltages throughout thecircuit.  Test for these with the DC setting of your multimeter.  Make a second check using the AC setting.  Pay particularattention to readings at TP5 (top of capacitor C10).  If the voltage here is too low (less than +11v DC) or you find excessiveripple (more than 700mv rms), replace the capacitor.Table 3 Voltage Adjustments to +5v Dc SupplyWHICH RESISTORSSUPPLY HAS . . .NeitherR10 onlyR24 OnlyR24 & R10TO INCREASE VOLTAGEIF UNDER 4.25v DC . . .Add R24Remove R10 oradd R24-Remove R10 oradd R24TO DECREASE VOLTAGEIF OVER 5.25v DC . . .Add R10-Remove R24 oradd R10Remove R24 oradd R10SELF DIAGNOSTICSIf RAM or ROM failure messages are displayed on the CRT after the “rug pattern” proceed with self-diagnostics.  Self-diagnostic procedures are controlled by the AUTO-UP/MANUAL-DOWN and ADVANCE switches in the coin door.  Setthe AUTO-UP/MANUAL-DOWN switch to the MANUAL-DOWN position and depress the ADVANCE pushbutton.  Thegame is now in its Diagnostic Mode and a ROM test is performed.  With ROM test results present on the CRT display,depressing the ADVANCE pushbutton initiates the RAM test.  Further tests (CMOS, sound, switch, color RAM, monitortest patterns) are encountered one after the other as the ADVANCE pushbutton is depressed (once more for each subsequenttest).MONITOR TEST PATTERNS - For ease in monitor adjustments, the monitor may be slid back and the screen viewed inthe CRT mirror provided on the inside-top of the cabinet.  Remove the two bolts and carefully slide the monitor back in itsshelf; secure the monitor in the extended position by inserting the two bolts though holes in the monitor base and monitorshelf provided at the left side of the monitor.AUTO CYCLE MODE - From the color bar pattern (or Game Over with the switch set to AUTO-UP) depress ADVANCEtwo times to display GAME ADJUSTMENTS.1.Position the cursor on AUTO CYCLE with the MOVE Joystick and push the FIRE joystick up.2.Depress ADVANCE.3.The system will now sequence through ROM, RAM, and CMOS RAM tests repeatedly.  The coin door must be openduring the Auto Cycle test.  If an error is detected, the test is terminated and the failure indication is displayed on theCRT.4.To terminate the Auto-Cycle test, turn the game OFF and ON.Figure 4.
