I've got 3 questions if I may......
.....if I want to change the jp do I have to change all four, or can I have 2 @ £5 jp & 2 @ £25, as put in a jp key in player 1 and whatever setting I put it on, even the original 10p/£5 jp, the invalid jp key alarm kept going off, so I've just pit the original key back in.

I want to take the balloon glass off to re bulb, but there are 2 screws at the bottom of the baloon holder which look like they go into the back of the machine....which when you look on the inside is covered by I think another piece of wood....I know I could possibly remove this, but does anyone know if those 2 screws are bolted or if they just screw into the machine (hope that makes sense) what I suppost I mean is, I don't want to remove them, lose the bolts and then have to remove the cover.
And finally....does anyone have a reel sensor for sale from an astra fruit machine?
Any help would be appreciated....Ive recently upgraded (if you can call it that) from 7 Barcrest early 90's classics to this....starting to think I made the wrong choice!!!!

I can only help you with one of those 3 questions and that is, i don't think you can set a partytime to, 2 being £5 and 2 beng £25 as if the players who went up on the main board, how would you configure that out to the machines, or would the actual machine do the right amount if you did that, only way you could find out if you test it to see if it works, if it does, happy days, if not, then you know you can't and got to keep to the same ones for all 4, either 10p/£5 or 25pOR30p/£25

You would have to have all 4 units set at the same stake/prize,thats proberbly why your getting the invalid option.Turn 3 of the slaves off and change the stake/prize on one of em and see if it will let you change it to £5.But like i said you will have to do the same to the others.

Wish I could fit a single unit in me flat ,yet alone a 4player unit-v.jealous

Thank you, I never thought of that I'll give it a go right now.

I didn't think I could fit 11 machines in a very, very small room, but they did.

I'd get a party time, even though you do live in a flat.....I'm using the seats round the dinner table to save space!

Make sure you take a few pictures of the room you got the machines in Pet.Shop.Boy - see how it looks like lol.

Just tried it and keeps coming up with invalid jackpot key, this is purely a guess, but I can only assume the software isn't compatible?

[pet.shop.boy]

It's weird though as even with just 1 of the slaves on, when I set it at 10p/£5 it still came up invalid jp key....possibly faulty jp key.
I'm gonna nip to great Yarmouth or possibly hemsby and ask 1 of the engineers as a couple of the arcades I go in have both versions of the arena.

Thanks for your help
