If the machine accepts the currency, the playbuttons on the mid-trim become active
and flash. The player may then insert more currency, play a game by pressing one of
the flashing playbuttons, or have the machine return the current credit total by
pressing the CASHOUT pushbutton.
1. Pressing one of the pushbuttons from the lower row to select the number of
credits to be wagered on each line, and then
2. Pressing one of the pushbuttons from the upper row to select the number of lines
to be played.
The BET meter on the display screen shows the credits wagered.
Once the player starts a game by pressing one of the active playbuttons, the machine
runs the game sequence and displays the outcome on the screen. If the result is a
winning combination, the player may gamble the win (if the gamble feature is
available); otherwise, the machine increments the credits won. If the result is not a
winning combination, the player may continue play provided there are credits
remaining.
The machine is equipped with electronic audit meters which continuously monitor
and record credit movement and game activity. Electromechanical meters are also
fitted. The electronic meters are accessed through the Operator Mode. The
information in these meters is used for audit calculations and security purposes.
If the machine encounters an abnormal condition, it alerts the operator by
automatically entering Machine Lockup. In lockup, game is disabled to prevent any
further player interaction and guidance information is displayed in the game message
area. Examining the Current Lockup screen, which is accessed from the Operator
Mode Menu, can identify the lockup condition.
