GVRI/O Mini PCB Service
Important:
This game requires a GVRI/O Mini PCB with
Blazing Angels Firmware
, version
3.57 or later. You cannot use a PCB designed for a different game. The PCB version is
displayed under
System Info
on the
Operator Main Menu
(see page 14).
The GVRI/O Mini PCB relays signals between the system computer and player controls. Each
connector on the GVRI/O Mini PCB is keyed to fit only to the correct harness connector. The
PCB is powered by the +5/+12 volt DC power supply through a standard PC power connector.
Refer to the picture below to locate the connectors on the PCB. See Figure 34 on page 57 for a
detailed wiring diagram.
The GVRI/O Mini PCB should always be connected to a PCI USB port,
not
a motherboard USB
port, to minimize the possibility of static shock interrupting the operation of the system computer.
Disconnect the cabinet from AC power before changing any
connections to the GVRI/O Mini PCB.

the cabinet to prevent electrostatic damage.
