Duplicate thread from FF so sorry if you've read this before, but:

I can change the bank 2 settings no problem, but now want to adjust the Price of play and maybe the JP on my CPCB. This requires changing settings on switch bank 1, but it isn't on the top of the box like bank 2 and I don't really want to go prodding around without knowing. Can one of you point me in the right direction for the second bank of dip switches please?

Do mpu5 machines not use the stake and prizes key rather than the dip switches?
If they do you can either buy one with a different price of play or jackpot setting or better still get a variable one which you can change to whatever settings you want depending on what options the machine can be set at.

my last machine was an mpu5 and it used the percentage key not the dip switch`s, i just got a new key.

the other switch bank is situated at one of the corners of the mpu.you may need a torch to see it completly.

Hi Again, OK have had many happy monthes playing at various percentages and stake levels on my CPCB, 5p £250 was interesting (not) on 72% lol

Now I tried last night to implement the dual stake setting, I changed all the decals and the buttons as instructed in the manual, but the dil settings don't appear to work.

In the manual it says:
sw1.1 Dual stake setting
sw1.2 Dual stake setting
sw1.3 Jackpot setting
sw1.4 Jackpot setting
sw1.5 Jackpot setting
sw1.6 Price of play setting
sw1.7 Price of play setting
sw1.8 Price of play setting

Then on the next page it says sw 2.7 - selects the dual stake option

However this doesn't tally with the stickers stuck on the back inside the machine
These say sw 2.7-Selects loud jackpot and for dual stake option to select
sw 1.1 off sw 1.2 on.

I have tried this with most combinations of sw 1.3-1.8 with no joy both with and without 2-7 on, just comes up illegal option on the LCD.

I have reversed it back to £250 25p and everything is ok again, just wondering what the trick is to setup the dual stake option, is there something I'm missing? Anyone got any ideas, I hope its not a trade secret lol

Any help appreciated in advance
