Site Preparation

In determining the location for your Megatouch Ion™ video game, consideration must be given to a suitable, grounded elec- trical outlet. Since the game is a computer- ized device, it should have a separate cir- cuit, if at all possible. If a separate circuit is not available, care should be taken to pro- vide a clean and constant voltage. As a basic guideline, never connect the unit to a circuit that also supplies power to freezers, coolers or other high power consuming and electrical noise generating equipment. Place the game in a location where nothing will interfere with proper ventilation. The game should not be exposed to any dripping or splashing liquids. Objects filled with liquid should not be placed on the unit.

Setting up your Megatouch Game

1.After removing the game from the car- ton, attach the power cord to the back of the game near the ON/OFF switch. Plug the game into a standard AC out- let.

2.Turn the power switch at the back of the game to ON and wait for it to go through its boot-up sequence. The game will display the Main Menu Screen.

3.If you have a Mega-Lease™ game, you must follow the steps in the MegaNet® User Manual to connect to the server in order to activate your game.

4.The machine has been preset at the factory and therefore should not need to be adjusted, however it is recom- mended that the screen be calibrated (see Screen Calibration) and the coin or bill acceptor(s) be tested.

5.There are many custom settings avail- able for the game. To customize the settings, follow the software instruc- tions in this manual.

Game Description

The Megatouch EVO model has 2 key-locked compartments: the CPU section door and the cash tower section. It comes equipped with a coin mech and/or bill acceptor. This model also has couplers installed in the rear of the game. These are used for future hardware upgrades which include linking and modem capabilities. Each game comes equipped with a wireless USB adapter which can be used to wirelessly link two Ion games to- gether by simply turning the games on. With the addition of a wireless router, up to four games can be linked and the game(s) can also connect to the Internet. The Linksys 802.11B router is recommended. For more information, see Wireless Setup.

The EVO also has several additional wall mounting kits, including a direct, recessed, and swivel bracket wall mount. There is also an available stand on which to place the game. Contact your distributor to pur- chase any of these additional parts.

CPU Section

The CPU section is accessible from the front of the game. The CPU section houses the LCD monitor, motherboard, I/O board, power supply, hard drive, and the main harness. Located on the control board (found inside the CPU section near the hinge of the CPU section door) are two internal switches, SETUP and CALIBRATE (see Figure 24). Pressing the SETUP button will bring you to the Megatouch Setup Screen. See the next section for calibration instructions.

NOTE: Additional “SETUP” and “CALI- BRATE” buttons can be accessed through the back of the CPU section, by unlocking the cash tower lock (see Figure 25).

Cash Tower Section

The coin mech/coin box/bill acceptor are ac- cessible from the rear of the cabinet. The cash tower is locked for security purposes. See Figure 25.
