Parts needed:

All parts will be included in your readymade Tap & Play kit.

with router

Tools needed:

  • Cordless Drill with large drill bit and phillips attachment
  • Rounded wood file
  • 4 x Philips wood screws
  • Philips screw driver
  • 8mm Socket Set

Step 1:

Remove toys from machine

Place the toys somewhere safe.

Step 2: Removing the play field

Unscrew 4 screws securing playfield so the playfield can be lifted out and give space to work inside the machine

ADVAM

Gently lift playfield from underneath and then slide back. Place arm through the space in the console to do so.

ADVAM

Step 3: Mounting the Raspberry Pi

Take the Raspberry Pi, Cordless Drill with 3mm Drill bit, 2 x wood screws and Philips screwdriver.

ADVAM

Using the cordless drill, make 2 holes in the side of the surround for the cashbox. One for each of the feet on the raspberry Pi. Hold the Raspberry Pi in place as a guide.

ADVAM

Using the screwdriver and 2x screws – secure the Rasberry Pi to the machine into the new holes you have made.

ADVAM

Ensure you install this with the SD card facing upwards like so:

ADVAM-07

Step 4 Plug in the Raspberry Pi power supply

Take the Raspberry Pi Power supply and the IEC adapter.

NON Lcm

Put the plug into the IEC adapter:

NON Lcm

Plug the power supply for the raspberry Pi into the yellow box of the machine using the IEC adapter

NON Lcm

Plug the Micro USB cable into the Raspberry Pi:

NON Lcm

Step 5: Connecting the Pi and Router together

For this step you will need 1 x short Ethernet cable and 1 x Red and black power cable for router and terminal, and SIM card:

ADVAM

Take the SIM card and pop it out of the card:

Non LCM-20

Pop the SIM out of the outer perforation to make it a ‘Micro SIM’ card:

Take the Router and turn it to the bottom. Take off the plastic guard covering the SIM Slot:

Non LCM-21

Insert the SIM card with the cut off corner facing down until it clicks into place:

Non LCM-22

The re attach te plastic cover.

Take the black and red power cable and plug it into the red board of the Raspberry Pi, to the connector with 5 pins available like so, and the circular DC power connector into the Router like so:

Non LCM-09
Non LCM-10

Then take the Ethernet cable, and plug it into the Ethernet port of the Raspberry Pi and into one of the yellow LAN ports of the router like so:

Non LCM-12

Hint: Ensure it goes into the yellow LAN port of the router- it will not work as intended if you plug it into the grey WLAN port.

Step 6: Connecting the Raspberry Pi to the PCB of the machine

Parts needed: wire to connect Rasp Pi to main PCB

ADVAM

Take the small 4 pin connector and connect to the 4 pins of the
Raspberry Pi Shield board like so:
(Hint: the extra connector for note reader is not needed – tie back with a cable tie.)

ADVAM

Then take the other end of the wire (Red connector) and plug it into the JP7 Connector on the Main PCB like so:

ADVAM

Step 7: Adding the 4th meter

For this step you will need 1 x 8mm socket set, 1 x JP5 meter wire, 1 x 4 meter bracket and 1 x meter.

ADVAM

Using the socket set, remove the nuts of the current current bracket holding the meters on and remove the bracke:

ADVAM

Then remove the wires from the back of the meter by pulling them:

ADVAM

Once you’ve removed the wiring, tie it up like so to avoid confusion in future as this is now unused.

ADVAM

After removing and securing the wiring, you can pop the meters out of their current bracket by first squeezing the clips holding them in place, and them pushing them out from behind.

ADVAM

After you have removed all of the meters, put them into the 4 meter bracket like so, in the order of:

ADVAM

You can then connect the new meter wiring. Each meter will have 1 red wire connected to the top pin and another of a different colour connected to the bottom.

ADVAM

Once the meters are wired up like above, add the new 4 meter bracket in the place the old bracket was and secure with the nuts using your socket set.

ADVAM

Go to the back of the machine, remove the existing JP5 wire and tie this back as it is no longer used:

Take the other end of the wire and plug this into the JP5 port you just removed the old one from:

Step 8: Connecting the Pi and the Terminal

For this step you will need 1 x long Ethernet cable, 1 x Red and black power cable for router and terminal 1 x USB to RS32 Serial convertor and 1 x RS32 Serial Cable to terminal:

ADVAM

Take the red and black cable you have already plugged into the Raspberry Pi & Router plug the remaining connector into the Terminal like so:

ADVAM

Take the Ethernet cable, and plug it into the Ethernet port of the Terminal at the bottom left, and plug the other end into one of the yellow LAN port like so:
(Hint: Remove the red end casings like so to for the cables in the Terminal case)

ADVAM
Non LCM-16

Take The USB to RS32 Serial Cable and the RS32 Serial to Terminal Cable, connect together and use in built screws to secure like so:

ADVAM

Then take the USB end of the USB to RS32 Serial cable and plug into the USB port of the Raspberry Pi:

ADVAM

Take the other end of the RS32 Serial to Terminal cable and place it in COM 0 port of the terminal like this:

ADVAM

Step 9:

Placing the terminal into the case:
Take the front part of the case (with white LED strips already installed) and gently push the face of the terminal in until it clicks into place, like so:

ADVAM

Then take the rear of the case, an line each of the wires from the terminal into the 3 holes available like so:

ADVAM

Then close the case until it clicks into place, end result:

ADVAM

Step 10: Mounting the case and terminal to the window

Peel the protective layer of the double sided glass tape already stuck to the case.

ADVAM

Line up the case with the desired part of the window ,making sure the case is stuck on absolutely straight. Then, using reasonable force press the taped part of the case to the window and hold for 5 seconds.

ADVAM

Step 11: Connecting the LED strip of the case to the Raspberry Pi.

Parts needed: Case with LED strip installed, White 4 Pin to USB connector with button control:

ADVAM

Connect the 4 male pins together with the female connector – making sure the arrow is pointing to the + symbol.

ADVAM

Then, using electrical tape, tightly secure the two together like so:

ADVAM

Then, take the other end of the white wire – USB cable – and insert into the USB port of the Raspberry Pi like so:

ADVAM

Step 12: Tidying all wires together

Using cable ties , cable tie together the 4 wires leading up to the terminal at multiple points down the wire, to keep them neat and together.

ADVAM

Secure and neaten any other loose wires using cable ties, and using self adhesive cable tie mounts, secure them to the machine like so:

Step 13: Making a hole for the wires

Tools needed: Rounded wood file

Using a marker pen, mark on the playfield exactly where the wires will need to pass into the bottom of the machine.

Take the playfield you have already removed out of the machine, and lock the machine up making sure all stock, parts and tools are secure.

Take the playfield outside to your vehicle and file an indent of around 1.5cm wide by 1.5cm deep to allow the wires to pass into the bottom to allow the wires to pass in to the bottom of the machine like so:

ADVAM

Then re-install the playfield and secure with the 4 screws you removed at the beginning

Step 14: Installing the Sticker

Installl the sticker provided on the window like so, being careful to ensure it is straight and free of bubbles by using a card to secure to the window.

Step 15: Setting the $ per play

Turn Machine on
Go into the LCM menu and find ‘Machine settings’
Press K2 until you find ‘Coin 3’
Change Options to 5 3 0 like so:
Press K5 to save and K1 to exit menu

 

 

Please note: If your LCM doesn’t show the option for Insert 3 and 4 – you
will need to change the program chip on the PCB:

 

 

The relevant program chip is included in your readymade kit.
Remove the one in there with a tool or screwdrivers.

 

 

Then, careful insert the replacement with the indent shown on the chip
pointing this way:

 

Step 16: Testing

When you see the Card reader read ‘$5 Tap Card’, Tap your card and ensure you receive an ‘Approved’ result.

Then ensure the machine gave the correct amount of games (3 if a $2 per play machine).

Step 17: Let us know the install is complete

Send an email to Techsupport@coinopgroup.com with the machines serial number and a picture of the new meters, We will then ensure this is added to the software.
