Degaussing Your Monitor
If your monitor is displaying “purity problems,”
(a display with purity problems will have parts
of an all-white screen affected by blotches
of color) the monitor needs to be degaussed
using a “degaussing coil.” A degaussing coil
is a circular electromagnet, used to cancel
out any stray magnetic fields that may build
up on a metal object.
All of our monitors have built-in degaussing
coils that are automatically activated on
power-up. If your game is experiencing
minor purity problems, try powering down the
game for 5 minutes and then reapplying
power to activate the degaussing coil. If the
problem is not corrected, you will have to
use a manual-degaussing coil.
Follow the instructions below for manually
degaussing a monitor.
1.
Plug in your degaussing coil.
2.
Hold the coil about three feet from the
monitor, press the trigger to activate the
magnetic field. For circular-shaped
coils, orient the coil so you see the
monitor through the hole in the middle;
for wand-shaped coils, point the wand
towards the screen.
3.
Move the coil in a circular motion around
the face of the monitor and slowly
approach the game.
4.
Continuing to move the coil in a circular
motion, slowly back away from the
monitor.
5a. CIRCULAR-SHAPED COILS: When
you are about three feet away, quickly
turn the coil perpendicular to the
monitor and release the trigger.

5b. WAND-SHAPED COILS: When you are
about three feet away, point the wand
away from the monitor and release the
trigger.
General Circuit Board Handling
Information
Before handling any boards, observe the
following procedures:
•
Prevent Electro-Static Discharge by:
Storing the boards in the anti-static bags
in which they are shipped. Removing
any static charge from your body
before handling the boards. Using a
ground strap when handling the boards.
•
When plugging in connectors to the
board, make sure the connector is
inserted straight onto the header and
that the connector covers all header
pins.
•
Do not connect any peripheral device
to the board, if the power is still
connected to the peripheral or if power
is already applied to the board.
Cleaning the Cabinet
•
The cabinet should be cleaned with a
damp cloth and mild detergent.
Cleaning the Touchscreen Monitor
•
The touchscreen glass should be
cleaned with a damp cloth and
isoprophyl alcohol or a non-ammonia
cleanser. Do not use any abrasive or
vinegar-based cleansers, as they will
damage the touchscreen glass.
Cleaning the Fans and Vents
•
The fans and vents should be cleaned
of any dust and grime on a regular
basis to ensure proper ventilation of the
game.
NOTE: DO NOT USE ANY ABRASIVE SOLVENTS, ACID
OR VINEGAR-BASED CLEANSERS WHEN CLEANING
YOUR GAME. OVER TIME, SUCH CLEANSERS COULD
HARM THE TOUCHSCREEN AND ERASE THE DECALS.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO USE COMMERCIAL CLEANERS
CONTAINING ANY OF THESE SUBSTANCES.
