Auto Burn-In Mode
The Auto Burn-in Mode permits the operator to check intermittent (or
nonrecurring) problems associated with most portions of the game's
circuitry. Repeatedly cycling through a group of tests can sometimes bring
a problem. which occurs only randomly or occasionally. to exhibit itself
more frequently. thereby aiding in the isolation of the problem. To activate
the Auto Burn-in Mode:

Setting of NO to YES. via the Credit button. Set the AurO-UP/MANUAL-
DOWN switch to AlITa-UP.

sequences through the Music Test. the Display Test. the Sound Test, the All
Lamps portion of the Lamp Test, and the Solenoid Test.

now starts in the Attract Mode. (Ifa switch problem is now
reported
by
the displays, perform the Switch Tests again to determine the
nature of the problem; then. perform necessary repairs.)
System-llB Memory Chip Test
A new feature is now included in the Memory Chip Test for System IlB.
Durtng power-up. the CPU performs a self-testing routine. When all tests
are satisfactory, the game proceeds to the Attract Mode. allowing players to
use the game. Whenever a portion of the testing does not produce
satisfactory results. the game displays a message. before proceeding to the
next portion of the testing. ONLYafter all tests are satisfactory does the
game allow play to begin.
In addition to the displayed message. when a test falls. LED2
('DIAGNOSTIC')mounted on the CPU Board can be observed to determine
the probable cause of the problem. This LED blinks. or flashes. a certain
number of times to identify the probable cause, as described in the CPU
LED Indicator Codes Table. The operator can also start the self-testing
routine by pressing the CPU Diagnostic Switch (SW2) on the edge of the
CPU Board.
