The Hobbit Menu System B-8
Coils Test
When you enter the Coils Test , the LCD monitor will display the screen shown in figure B8. The en-
tire list of coils, magnets, motors and lights is shown alongside a window highlighting the location of
the currently selected device on the game’s playfield (at right in figure B8). The device is displayed
as a small, white, blinking square. Note: Devices in the list that cannot be activated in the
Coils Test
are highlighted in blue text (these devices have their own specific tests).
Coil number, power/trigger wire colors, I/O Board connectors/pins, drive transistor, in-line fuses
and supply voltage level are provided for each device in the list.
There are three different modes for triggering a device: RUNNING , REPEAT and MANUAL . The
current mode is highlighted in green text at the top of the screen; you change the current mode by
pressing the Enter button. In RUNNING mode, the game automatically cycles through the list, trig-
gering each device once. In REPEAT mode, you scroll through the list (using the Up/+ and Down/-
buttons) and select a specific device; the game then repeatedly triggers it. In
MANUAL
mode, you
select a specific device in the list and trigger it yourself using the Start button on the front of the
cabinet.
Note: When the coin door is opened, the game’s safety interlock switch (the upper switch on item
14, page C-2 of this manual) disables the 70-volt power running to the playfield. In order to activate
70-volt devices in the Coils Test , you must either close the coin door or pull the safety interlock
switch’s actuator out (it will “click” and lock in place). When you close the coin door, the interlock
switch actuator will be pushed back into its normal (unlocked) position.
To exit the
Coils Test
at any time, press the
Back/Escape
button.
