TYPICAL SOUND TEST MENU SCREEN
Each Game sound is stored in a discrete memory location. All sounds are available to test the audio
reproduction capabilities of the sound circuits. Vary the volume as you sample these sounds to determine
if loose wire connections, faulty memory, digital-to-analog conversion problems, a defective speaker, etc.
could be causing distorted or missing sound effects. Select a repetitive sound track and a high volume
level if you suspect errors caused by heat or time-related problems.
The sounds may be examined in any order. Touch the + or - buttons to change the volume as necessary.
Touch RETURN to end these tests and go back to DIAGNOSTICS, then RETURN and EXIT to go back to
Attract mode.
There are three types of sounds used in the Touchmaster
®
games. Short bursts of sound indicate single
events such as a touch selection or an incorrect answer to a question. A dog barking, a cowbell, and the
“boing” are examples of these sounds. Medium-length phrases are used to announce the start or end of a
game, bonus rounds, or a new high score. These phrases can last from one to five seconds. The final
group of sounds are repetitive sounds like a jazz-drum riff or the ticking of a clock. These sounds are used
to distract the player and to attract others to the game.
NOTICE: The volume adjustment in the sound tests is the same as the one used for the
game play. Be sure to set the volume back to a reasonable level when you have
concluded the tests.
NOTICE: There is a master volume control on the CPU Board Assembly. Change this
potentiometer only if there is not enough range in the on-screen volume adjustment.
Refer to audio Troubleshooting.
