Title: Alpha 12 Button deck Line Bet will not go above Play 3 Per Line
Post by: DF777 on March 01, 2015, 01:31:34 PM

I was setting up a new game and wanted to play 25 lines and Bet 4  per line
It is a penny machine so max bet would be 100 ($1.00) to match another game.
I was able to set it up in the menu but because I have a 12 button deck and not 14
it showed the Bet 4 in the 4th. and 5th. buttons.I only have 3 bet buttons.
When I got the game running it would Bet 4 only if I hit Play Max.The buttons
would only Bet 1,2&3
After a lot of thought and comparing the wiring to a 14 button deck I moved the
#3 Bet button wire up to the #5 position on the large harness connector.
It works now Bet 1,2&4

I am little confused on your post. If you have 12 physical buttons on your deck, then you should be selecting 14 in the Device Manager. Selecting 11 in the menu would move your button configuration around. You always select the number of buttons in the setup MORE than your physical buttons on the deck. Am I missing something here?

I did select the 14 Button Deck in the menu as per my  pic. but by choosing Line Bet 4 it placed 4 on the missing
4th. and 5th. buttons.
The way the 12 Button deck is wired you can only Max Bet 3 per line.
The 14 button deck has 2 extra Bet buttons so there are 2 more wires in the harness.Those extra wires
are placed in the 4th. and 5th. positions from the bottom on the connector.
