2.1 Preface
IGT proudly presents a world premier with the multi link Action
Jackpots. This innovative novelty product offers four different pro-
gressive links tied into one single gaming machine!

nication between the gaming machines and the jackpot controller

tion does not show progressive jackpot values!

2.5 General Configuration Notes


When configuring an Action Jackpots installation, there are a few
things to consider:

2.5.1 Configuration USB Flash Drive


The configuration USB flash drive contains a customer specific
game configuration that is predetermined during order processing.
Depending on the configuration presets and jurisdiction the menu
settings might be adjustable. If you want to change any of the pre-
determined settings, please contact your local sales representative.

To perform an initial setup configuration the configuration USB flash


drive is mandatory! The configuration USB flash drive is connected
to one of the USB ports located at the logic box.

2.5.2 Initial Setup – Game Configuration


The game configuration settings are predetermined during or-
der processing and cannot be changed. If you want to (or have to)
change any of the predetermined settings, please contact your local
sales representative.

2.5.3 Progressive Calculation


The Action Jackpots progressive parameters are calculated by means
of the Progressive Calculation Sheet. To ensure proper configuration
the progressive calculation parameters are predetermined during or-
der processing and cannot be changed. If you want to change any of
the predetermined jackpot parameters (e.g. Start Value, JP Limits,
etc), please contact your local sales representative for a recalculation.

2.5.4 Jackpot Handpays


The threshold level for jackpot handpays is determined by the Cel-
ebration Limit setting. A win that exceeds this limit will trigger a jack-
pot handpay. See also chapter 5, section 5.2 Celebration Limit or the
relevant software manual.

to ensure a proper shutdown of the media controller in case of a
power outage or to compensate voltage peaks. It also allows users
to shut down the media controller by switching off mains voltage.
The UPS will detect the power loss and initialize the shutdown of the
media controller, while supplying power to the media controller until
the shutdown is completed.

Caution : A power outage or voltage peak can cause se-


vere damage to the media controller hardware and soft-
ware! Do not operate a media controller without having a
properly configured UPS connected!
