CHAPTER 6 – SERVICE
Computer Service
The computer is serviced as one unit. You will void your warranty if you open the computer to replace parts
yourself without the direct authorization from a GLOBAL VR technical support staff.
To remove the computer from the cabinet, unplug all the cables that are connected to the computer. Unplug
the USB Game Dongle and keep this with your cabinet. Do not ship the game dongle with the computer if you
send it in for repair. Use a 7/16" wrench to unscrew the (4x) ¼ -20 x 1” bolts from underneath the computer as
shown by the arrows in the figure below.

– Unbolting the Computer
When shipping the computer, always use plenty of padding and protection. GLOBAL VR recommends shipping
the computer with 3 inches of foam padding on all sides. Shipping the computer inside a box that has
insufficient padding can void the warranty if the computer is visibly damaged from shipping.
Coin Mech & Coin Meter
You can replace the coin mech with any standard arcade coin mech (including the NRI coin mech for
international customers) to meet the needs of your location.
To remove the coin mech, unscrew the bolts on the latches as shown by the arrows in step 1 of the figure
below. Then slide the latches apart from each other, and remove the Coin Mech as shown in steps 2 and 3. To
re-install a coin mech, reverse this process. It is important to verify the operation of the newly installed coin
mech with both good and bad coins.
Figure 56
– Servicing the Coin Mech and Coin Meter
The coin meter is located in the bottom left-hand corner of the cash box. To remove the coin meter, disconnect
the two wires from the coin meter to the wire harness. Next, unscrew the 2 Phillips screws holding the coin
meter to the cash box. Slide the coin meter straight back and out the hole in the bottom of the cash box.
