Linking Games

Some games include an Ethernet cable and a crossover connector used to link games together. By linking your games, players can play compete against one another in real-time interactive play. Follow the instructions below to link your games. The software will allow

up to 8 games to be linked.

NOTE: One Ethernet cable is required for each game you are linking. Additional Cat- 5 UTP RJ45 Ethernet cables can be pur- chased at your local computer store.

1.Turn off and unplug the games.

2.Connect one end of the supplied Ethernet cable to the Ethernet connec- tor on the outside of the game. The Ethernet connector is the one on the left if you are facing the back of the game. (If you are linking a Vibe or EVO, the Ethernet connector is the on the right.)

3.Connect the second Ethernet cable to the Ethernet connector on the outside of the second game.

NOTE: If you are linking games to a Combo Jukebox or a MegaTunes unit, the free ends of the Ethernet cables from the games will connect directly to the Ethernet ports on the jukebox or MegaTunes unit. If you are link- ing more than 2 games and a jukebox, or more than 3 games and a MegaTunes, you will need to connect an Ethernet cable to the hub connector on the jukebox or MegaTunes unit and plug the free ends of all of the cables into a hub.

MegaTunes: The Ethernet ports are located on the Ethernet hub mounted to the single board computer (SBC). The 4 ports on the right are all for Ethernet, the port on the left is for connecting a hub only. Loosen the 2 thumbnuts securing the front access panel. Connect the Ethernet cable to one of the Ethernet ports and replace the front access panel routing the cable through the slots at the bottom of the access panel.

Combo Jukebox: There are two available Ethernet couplers, labeled “Mega-Link”, on the upper left if you are facing the back of

the jukebox.

4.Linking two games: Plug the free ends of both the Ethernet cables into the crossover coupler.

Linking more than two games: Pug the free ends of the Ethernet cables into a 10 BASE-T Ethernet hub (available from your distributor as a separate part num- ber (EC0030-01), or at your local com- puter store).

5.Plug in the games and turn on the power. If installation was successful, you will see a Mega-Link® button displayed on the screen after the menu appears.

NOTE: The Mega-Link® icon will appear on the game only when 2 or more games are linked.

NOTE: If a MegaTunes unit has been linked to a game, the music will be downloaded to the game. This download time will vary de- pending on the amount of music being down- loaded.

NOTE: Megatouch games that are con- nected using the Mega-Link™ system must have the same level of software for proper operation. The software is designed to de- tect other levels of software in linked games. If a different level is detected, you will re- ceive a screen that says, “MEGALINK MIS- MATCH CALL ATTENDANT.” This screen will be displayed approximately 5 minutes after you turn the games on. To clear the screen and continue playing the games, you must turn the power off, unlink the games, and turn the power back on again. If you want to link these games you must upgrade all games to the same software level.
