Drop Bank Life Test
When you enter the Drop Bank Life Test , the LCD monitor will display the screen shown in figure
B19. A table is shown, showing up and down counts, up and down failures and the date/time of the
last up event for all of the drop targets in the game, separated by target bank.
You can use the Enter button to start or pause the life test. The test is initially paused (indicated
in the lower left corner of the screen). When running, the life test repeatedly cycles through three
different sub-tests (listed in the lower left corner of the screen); the currently running sub-test is
highlighted in yellow.
During the first sub-test, each target is individually reset (up), beginning with the E target, moving
left to right around the playfield. When the last target ( N ) is up, each target is individually retracted
(down), in the same order, again beginning with the
E
target.
During the second sub-test, each target is individually reset (up), then retracted (down), beginning
with the E target, moving left to right around the playfield.
During the third sub-test, all targets are simultaneously reset (up), then retracted (down). This "all
up, all down" sequence is repeated five times.
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. To allow coils to
function in the
Drop Bank Life 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 Drop Bank Life Test at any time, press the Back/Escape button.
