TOUCHMASTER® OPERATION 
STARTING UP 
Each time AC power is turned on or power is restored, code executes from the boot ROM. These self-
diagnostic tests automatically verify and report hardware and EPROM conditions. If any individual test fails 
an error message for that test displays for three seconds or until an on-screen button is touched. If a fatal 
error (i.e., a touchscreen controller fault) is detected, the message remains on the screen until the fault is 
resolved. In the event of other errors (key problems, low battery, etc.) a message is reported, but the 
program loads and permits game play. 
Press the CALIBRATE button at any time to adjust or verify the touchscreen operation. 
Press the SETUP button at any time to activate the menu system (audits, adjustments, etc.). 
If you do not press either button, the system completes all tests, then enters Attract Mode. 
Game choice menus alternate with scenes and sounds from typical games until game play starts. 
Insert currency, select a game, and choose variables (i.e., number of players). Play begins at once and 
progresses until time runs out or you exit the game. If no more play is required, Attract Mode begins. 
You may insert your own message to inform players of new games, upcoming events, etc. This message 
then appears as a screen in Attract Mode. 
To shut the game off, turn the power switch to the off
 position at any time. 
PLAYER CONTROLS 
This game uses a touch sensor on the CRT face to control all player moves and choices. Players touch 
the screen for a moment in an active area to enter information. Touching inactive areas of the screen 
produces no response. The touch sensor responds to only one active input at a time. 
OPERATOR CONTROLS 
CABINET SWITCHES 
External switches are located on top and at the botom of the cabinet near the line cord. 
♦ Power Switch

 at the top of the Machine turns the AC power on or off. It does not reset game 
variables. 
♦ Circuit Breaker 
The Circuit Breaker
 protects the electronics from fault conditions. It does not reset game variables. 
CONTROL SWITCHES 
The internal switches are located behind the cash door, attached to a mounting bracket. 
♦ SETUP Pushbutton 
The SETUP
 pushbutton takes you into the Menu System to set game characteristics. An on-screen 
EXIT  button lets you return to Attract Mode. 
♦ CALIBRATE Pushbutton 
The CALIBRATE
 pushbutton takes you to a Touchscreen adjustment screen and verification routine. 
After verification, normal game operation returns automatically. 
♦ Master Volume Control 
The Master Volume Control 
(on the CPU Board Assembly) sets the maximum sound level. Adjust 
the game volume at the initial System Setup screen after pressing the SETUP button.

MENU SYSTEM 
SYSTEM OVERVIEW 
Adjustments and diagnostics appear in a series of on-screen menus. The SYSTEM SETUP menu lets you 
enter information, make changes, or verify equipment operation. Subsequent screens displays one 
specific group of choices. The detail menu presents data or runs the required test. You must be at the 
detail menu level to detect errors, make changes, or activate tests. Both the operator controls and the 
player controls are used to move through the menus and start or stop particular routines. 
Each menu is different, but the general location of objects is consistent. 
The area at the top center of each screen displays the current menu title. 
The center of the screen is used for data (menu items, video signals, statistics, reports, etc.). 
The bottom of the screen is reserved for control functions (increase, decrease, next, return, etc.). 
ORGANIZATION 
You must activate the menu system manually and deactivate it manually to return to Attract Mode. 
SYSTEM SETUP menu choices fall into three categories: audits, options and tests. 
Audits provide you with information about earnings and the performance of each game. 
Option items permit you to change the game and customize or return to factory defaults. 
Tests are used to verify proper operation of the equipment. 
Submenu screen items offer you choices within a category. Some items have no submenu while others 
may have several. You can return to the previous menu or go on to the next menu. 
Detail menu screen items contain specific information. You interact with the system to get results or to 
make changes. There is always a way to go back to the previous menus from a detail menu. 
Touch the screen to select or highlight an item on any menu screen. Only one item can be highlighted at a 
time. To restore the game to normal play, touch RETURN  on each sub or detail menu and then select 
EXIT  at the Main Menu to restore game play. 
Press and release the SETUP button inside the cabinet to enter the menu system. A Main Menu, similar to 
the one below, appears. After completing any task, you must return to this screen to restore game play
