Vibe Installation Instructions

*The installation of the Vibe requires hardware and tools which are not included.

Overview

The Vibe is a custom installation product. It is designed to offer versatility in setting up the

processor and terminal. You can mount the processor and terminal as you see fit. Both

units should be located in an area where the ventilation slots are free from obstruction and

where it will not be damaged by moisture or physical contact. It should be plugged into a

properly grounded outlet (supplying 110 V A/C, 2A, 50-60 Hz or 220 V A/C, 2A, 50-60 Hz)

that is on a separate circuit from any electrical-noise making equipment, such as large

freezers, generators, etc.

NOTE: Vibe processors in Canada must be mounted on the wall using the processor cover

and terminals must be placed on the bar using the base support.

The terminal and the processor can be mounted without the need for additional mounting

kits. The terminal can be mounted using either recessed wall or surface wall mounting and

the processor can be mounted using standard mounting or it can rest on the rubber feet on

the bottom of the processor. We recommend that the processor be mounted to avoid

damage it could sustain if left unmounted. Templates have been provided with both the

terminal and the processor if these standard mounting options are the mounting options you

have chosen.

The hardware that is supplied with the mounting option you have chosen is only the neces-

sary hardware to mount the terminal or processor to support devices. All other hardware

necessary to mount the components to the wall or other mounting surface will vary depend-

ing on your mounting surface and therefore need to be customer supplied. When mounting

both components, use hardware sufficient to support the weight for your application. (The

processor is 17 pounds, the terminal is 22 pounds for Vibes with bill acceptors and 40

pounds for Vibes with coin). The processor and the terminal must be located no farther than

7 feet apart. Handle both components with care. Do not subject them to excessive vibration

or impact while mounting.

NOTE: The Vibe is not designed to function in an ambient
temperature in excess of 95ºF or 35ºC.

1 VIBE INSTALLATION AND OWNER’S MANUAL PM0352-10

Mounting the Terminal

NOTE: THIS INSTALLATION MUST ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE

option you have chosen for your application. Make sure you are using sufficient hardware

to support the weight of the terminal for your application (22 pounds for Vibes with bill

acceptors and 50 pounds for Vibes with coin). The processor and the terminal must be

located no farther than 7 feet apart.

NOTE: The lock on the terminal will only rotate approximately 45º-60º.

Linking Games

Some games include an Ethernet cable and a crossover connector used to link games

together. By linking your games, players can play compete against one another in real-time

interactive play. Follow the instructions below to link your games. The software will allow

up to 8 games to be linked.

Linking two games: Plug the free ends

of both the Ethernet cables into the

crossover coupler.

Linking more than two games: Pug the

free ends of the Ethernet cables into a

10 BASE-T Ethernet hub (available from

your distributor as a separate part num-

ber (EC0030-01), or at your local com-

puter store).

Plug in the games and turn on the power.

If installation was successful, you will

see a Mega-Link® button displayed on

the screen after the menu appears.

NOTE: The Mega-Link® icon will appear
on the game only when 2 or more games
are linked.

NOTE: If a MegaTunes unit has been linked
to a game, the music will be downloaded to
the game. This download time will vary de-
pending on the amount of music being down-
loaded.

NOTE: Megatouch games that are con-
nected using the Mega-Link™ system must
have the same level of software for proper
operation. The software is designed to de-
tect other levels of software in linked games.
If a different level is detected, you will re-
ceive a screen that says, “MEGALINK MIS-
MATCH CALL ATTENDANT.” This screen
will be displayed approximately 5 minutes
after you turn the games on. To clear the
screen and continue playing the games, you
must turn the power off, unlink the games,
and turn the power back on again. If you
want to link these games you must upgrade
all games to the same software level.

PM0352-10 VIBE INSTALLATION AND OWNER’S MANUAL 28

NOTE: One Ethernet cable is required for
each game you are linking. Additional Cat-
5 UTP RJ45 Ethernet cables can be pur-
chased at your local computer store.

Turn off and unplug the games.

Connect one end of the supplied

Ethernet cable to the Ethernet connec-

tor on the outside of the game. The

Ethernet connector is the one on the

left if you are facing the back of the

game. (If you are linking a Vibe or EVO,

the Ethernet connector is the on the

right.)

Connect the second Ethernet cable to

the Ethernet connector on the outside

of the second game.

NOTE: If you are linking games to a Combo
Jukebox or a MegaTunes unit, the free ends
of the Ethernet cables from the games will
connect directly to the Ethernet ports on the
jukebox or MegaTunes unit. If you are link-
ing more than 2 games and a jukebox, or
more than 3 games and a MegaTunes, you
will need to connect an Ethernet cable to the
hub connector on the jukebox or MegaTunes
unit and plug the free ends of all of the cables
into a hub.

MegaTunes: The Ethernet ports are located
on the Ethernet hub mounted to the single
board computer (SBC). The 4 ports on the
right are all for Ethernet, the port on the left
is for connecting a hub only. Loosen the 2
thumbnuts securing the front access panel.
Connect the Ethernet cable to one of the
Ethernet ports and replace the front access
panel routing the cable through the slots at
the bottom of the access panel.

Combo Jukebox: There are two available
Ethernet couplers, labeled “Mega-Link”, on
the upper left if you are facing the back of

the jukebox.

General Circuit Board Handling

Information

Before handling any boards, observe the

following procedures:

•

Prevent Electro-Static Discharge by:

Storing the boards in the anti-static

bags in which they are shipped.

Removing any static charge from

your body before handling the

boards by using a ground strap

when handling the boards.

•

When plugging in connectors to the

board, make sure the connector is

inserted straight onto the header and

that the connector covers all header

pins.

•

Do not connect any peripheral device

to the board if the power is still con-

nected to the peripheral or if power is

already applied to the board.

CAUTION: Be extremely careful when re-
placing the lithium battery on the
motherboard. There is a danger of explo-
sion if this battery is incorrectly replaced.
Only replace the battery with the same type
recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose
of used batteries according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.

Cleaning the Processor

•

The processor should be cleaned with

a damp cloth and mild detergent. Al-

ways apply the cleaner to the cloth and

not directly on the game. Liquids could

enter the processor and damage elec-

tronics inside.

PM0352-10 VIBE INSTALLATION AND OWNER’S MANUAL 30

Cleaning the Touchscreen Monitor

•

The touchscreen glass should be

cleaned with a damp cloth and isopro-

pyl alcohol or a non-ammonia cleanser.

Do not use any abrasive or vinegar-

based cleansers, as they will damage

the touchscreen glass.

NOTE: DO NOT USE ANY ABRASIVE
SOLVENTS, ACID OR VINEGAR-BASED
CLEANSERS ON THE MONITOR OR
SIDE DECALS. OVER TIME, SUCH
CLEANSERS COULD HARM THE
TOUCHSCREEN AND ERASE THE DE-
CALS. BE CAREFUL NOT TO USE COM-
MERCIAL CLEANERS CONTAINING
ANY OF THESE SUBSTANCES.

Cleaning the Fans and Vents

•

The fans and vents should be cleaned

of any dust and grime on a regular ba-

sis to ensure proper ventilation of the

game.

•

To ensure proper operation of the

game, it is important that all fans are

operating correctly and that the airflow

is unobstructed. Make sure nothing is

placed inside the unit or next to the fan

vents that would inhibit the flow of air.

Also, if any fans are not operating, it is

important that they be replaced.

Coin-In

To Enter The “Coin-In” Screen, Touch “Coin-In” on the Credits Menu

Game cost can be controlled two ways: by changing the number of credits required to play

a game or by changing the cost of a credit. The Coin-In Menu allows you to adjust the cost

of a credit, as well as providing a way to give players “bonus” credits for depositing a higher

amount of money.

When programming the Coin-In Menu, Channel 1 is set for the lowest value coin, Channel 2

for the next highest value, etc. If all six coin inputs are not used, the unused inputs must be

set to “N/A”. Adjust the coin/credit/meter pulse settings by touching the up and down

arrows on the field you want to change.

In the above example (UK currency), each game costs one (1) credit and the cost for a

single credit is 30p. This method is preferred if you want game cost to always be reflected

as “1 credit.”

In the above example (UK currency), the cost of a credit is set to 10p and each game costs

3 credits (for a total of 30p). This method allows game cost to be increased by the smallest

unit of currency used (e.g. increasing the cost of Solitaire to four (4) credits would increase

the game cost by 10p).

In both examples, note that meter pulses are independent of credits and only track the unit

of currency (10p in the examples). Players are given an incentive to deposit more money

by giving them “bonus” credits for depositing 50p or £1. Coins may be deposited in any

combination of values and the game will automatically register the highest number of credits

for the total amount of coins deposited. Once a game is played, any remaining fractional

credits are erased.

Generally, most countries have a factory default setting. This setting can be adjusted (as

described above), but will return if the game memory is cleared. Some programs, depending

on the key used, have a currency default display located to the left of the coin inputs. It

shows the currency value for each of the coin inputs. This display is used as a guide and

is not used in any calculations. Touch the currency default display to hide/show the display.

• Configures the CMOS settings on the motherboard to Merit

specifications and checks the files on the hard drive.

A checksum test should be performed when the game is locking
up or rebooting. If the test fails, the program should be reloaded
onto the hard drive. After reloading, perform another checksum
test. If it fails again, the hard drive should be replaced.

• Clears the login name, password, access phone number, and

all call-in settings for TournaMAXX™ users.

• Clears all the loaded albums for TouchTunes® users.

• Clears current books, coin-in, high scores and resets the

software options.

A memory clear should be performed when a game is not able
to connect to TournaMAXX™ and there is some question about
the information in the Dial-Up Network Screen being correct.
After performing a memory clear, TournaMAXX™ setup
information must be re-entered, and an “Update From Server”
should be performed.
NOTE: TournaMAXX™ games must perform an “Update From
Server” BEFORE performing a memory clear.

4 & 7

• Clears ALL memory on hard drive including the

TournaMAXX™ player database, TournaMAXX™ settings,
advertising screens, bookkeeping, high scores, coin-in,
options, etc. It resets the game to the factory defaults. It also
marks bad sectors on hard drive.

A complete memory clear should only be performed when the
game is locking up or resetting and it has passed the checksum
test. After performing a memory clear, the player database
should be reloaded, TournaMAXX setup information must be re-
entered, and an “Update From Server” should be performed.

NOTE: TournaMAXX™ games must perform an “Update From
Server” BEFORE performing a complete memory clear.
