ERROR MESSAGES
The WPC game program has the capability to aid the operator and service personnel. At Game Turn-on,
or after pressing the Begin Test switch, (once the game has been operating for an extended period), the
display may signal with the message, "Press ENTER for Test Report". This indicates the game program
has detected a possible problem with the game.
To obtain details of the problem, open the coin door and press the Begin Test switch. Press the Enter
button to begin displaying the message(s). The following messages apply to your game.
SLOTS DISABLED, ADJUSTMENT IS SET TO ON
Adjustment A.2 17 is set to on. Please reset the adjustment after the problem is fixed.
RAMP DISABLED, ADJUSTMENT IS SET TO ON
Adjustment A.2 18 is set to on. Please reset the adjustment after the problem is fixed.
3 BANK DISABLED, ADJUSTMENT IS SET TO ON
Adjustment A.219 is set to on. Please reset the adjustment after the problem is fixed.
MOTORIZED 3-BANK ERROR
The motorized 3-bank is having trouble finding one or both of the position switches. One of the
switches are broken or needing attention.
SLOT MACHINE IS STUCK
One or more of the reels have recently tried to spin and was unable to. The opto of the reel needs
some attention.
UP
I
DOWN RAMP ERROR
The Up / down ramp recently had trouble moving into position. The ramp switch needs attention.
Check Switch ##.
This message indicates that at least one switch was stuck 'On' at game turn-on or has NOT been
actuated during ball play (for 90 balls or A30 games). The game program compensates the game
play requirements affected by each disabled switch to allow 'nearly normal' play. This helps keep
the game earning, until the service technician can repair the problem.
To verify the problem, refer to the Test Menu text describing Switch Testing, and check each
reported switch using applicable switch tests. Always check switch operation using a ball, to
simulate game conditions. Switch problems may often be resolved by adjusting the wire switch
actuators, fixing switch circuitry problems, securing loose connectors, etc. Mechanisms using
'opto switches'
(drop targets, etc.) need to be checked for proper power connections (+12V dc
and ground).
Check Fuses F115 and F116 and Opto 12V Supply.
This message will be displayed if the game senses that all optical switches are not functioning.
This usually occurs when there is no 12V supply to the playfield optics.
The problem is likely to be a blown fuse (F115 or F116) or at connectors J112, J116, J117 or
J 118 on the power driver board.
