FIGURE 6 - PAY PER TIME SCREEN
To Enter This Screen, Touch
“Pay Per Time” on the Credits Menu
Per-Game Mode
When players choose this mode, a running
total of the amount owed is maintained and
displayed in the CREDITS box on the
screen. The total is tabulated after each
game or function. The location owner then
collects the total amount owed at the end
of gameplay. If there is no activity for 10
minutes, the machine will disable and the
amount owed by the player will display on
screen. No further gameplay can occur
until the machine is reset by a location
employee using the PIN.
Time Mode
The price per 15-minute time block will be
displayed before players choose this
mode. During gameplay, the time remaining
and amount owed by the player will be
displayed on screen. When the time block
runs out, players can purchase additional
time. Otherwise, the machine will disable
and the amount owed by the player will
display on screen. No further gameplay
can occur until the machine is reset using
the PIN. If the player leaves the game
before the purchased time block has ended,
the game can be reset using the PIN.
Resetting or Freezing the Game
The game can be reset at any time using
the pre-programmed PIN. Once gameplay
totals have been tallied by the machine, the
attendant can also choose to freeze the
game to prevent more activity until the
transaction is complete. The Reset or
Freeze buttons are accessible through the
Options button on the Player Menu after
touching the Coinless Coin Op button. An
alarm will begin to sound after 3 failed
attempts to enter the valid number when
entering the PIN to reset the game. The
alarm will terminate when the machine is
rebooted, the operator SETUP button is
pressed, or the correct PIN is entered.
Rental Mode
When enabled via the Options button on
the Credits/Pricing Menu, Rental Mode
allows players to purchase a block of time
and use it to play as many games as they
want.
To set the value of a credit in Rental Mode,
select Pay Per Time from the Credits
Menu. Touch the arrows on either side of
the time interval to adjust the number of
minutes of play given for each credit. To
disable any row, set the value to zero.
Certain features will not be available in
Rental Mode, such as MegaNet, Merit
Money, credit card purchases, Promo
Credits, and Free Credits. Rental mode is
also unavailable with linked games.
NOTE: It is recommended that you
clear the books when toggling Rental
Mode on and off in order to ensure
accurate bookkeeping.
Freeplay Mode
Turn this option on to enable free game play,
which can be used for promotions and
demonstrations. Additionally, Megatouch
systems with credit card functionality will
enter Credit Card Demo Mode when freeplay
is enabled. This can be used to show how
the credit card feature works without
actually charging a credit card.
