50 SWITCH ALARM KNOCKER
This Adjustment controls the operation of the Knocker, when it is used to indicate the probable
failure of one or more playfield switches. The choices are
On
(the knocker sounds to indicate a
switch problem) or
Off
(No knocker actuation).
5 1 1 COIN BUY·IN
The operator can choose (via the Credit button) whether to allow "1 Coin Buy-in" when Game
Adjustment Ad 24 is set for USA 3 (2 coins-1play, 50¢ per game player) pricing. This option
enables each player, during a timed period at the end of each game, to buy another game for
only one coin (25¢), after having purchased the first game for 50¢. That is, after purchasing the
first game for 50¢, subsequent games cost 25¢, if purchased within the time limit.
5 2 SLING STRENGTH
The operator can choose (via the Credit button) to increase the action of the lower left and right
kickers, if they are not providing sufficient action. The choices are
Normal
(typical, new game
action) or
Harder
(for later in a game's life, when the coil action is not as strong as when the game
was new).
