Thanks RB for the info. I guess that explains why I can find no info on a Hot Peppers Vision machine. Still, though, I would like it to do what it did when it was in the casino. Or, if I could find someone with a vision reel/glass set I could convert it. I'd like to keep this machine and make it fun to play. Maybe Double Diamond Run. Do you know someone? I haven't seen much out there in a set for vision machines. Thanks again. I would still consider getting the chips that were originally in this machine if available.

If it was mine, I would go to www.spin.com and get Pink Panther reel strips, and glass set for it. Getting the SG380's is easy as with the SB000339 and vs11GX0 as well as the data card with BGM00108, ATA10065. Pretty sure I have an extra data card. And yes Hot Peppers was never a vision game. What top glass is in it now? Show picture please. I love vision machines and have 10.

If I am understanding correctly, you can set it up to display a Progressive Jackpot on the monitor. I don't know the procedure but should be somewhere in the key chip menu. However if your MPU & monitor are not communicating there may be other issues. It seems the software you have may be native to the machine. There are probably some newer SG chips that will work & a newer Version chip but neither are necessarily needed. I'm pretty sharp on standard S2Ks but as stated earlier very little experience with Visions. Vision kits are available from time to time. Preferably something that could use SG380s & a multi denom Version if desired. SG380s require ATA100065 or newer & the proper BGM for the game. Some visions even use a CD rom or possibly a hard drive so do your research before you jump into a game kit to be sure you get everything needed. I like Elvis's idea. Pink Panther would be very cool.

I'd love to do pink panther. Only problem is that I didn't see the reel glass on spin inc. I found one on rudy's but there is no spot for "winner paid - credits - coins played". Mine is in the lower right corner as seen in pics. Also, my vision screen is in the lower right corner of my top glass. Pink Panther is in the middle. The latter is easily remedied is suppose but what of the reel glass? Now you guys have me excited.

therockinelvis · « **Reply #24 on:** September 03, 2016, 04:36:34 PM »

Moving the monitor is simple. Usually extra holes in mount to move it to center. The reel strips, top and belly glass are the key parts. There are lots of 5 coin reel glass available. I would take fun play over exact match any day. To use Rudy's reel glass, you would need to change the reel tray and move the printer down. What Top glass was in your machine?

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #25 on:** September 03, 2016, 05:23:29 PM »

So, Pink Panther is a 5 coin game? I get what you're saying about fun play. On spin inc there are 3 pink panther reel strips. 74276-0, 74277- and 74279-0. I'm assuming this is reel 1, 2 and 3, correct?

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #26 on:** September 03, 2016, 05:30:35 PM »

Oh, sorry. Here is a pic of my top glass. 15x19.5

therockinelvis · « **Reply #27 on:** September 04, 2016, 04:31:17 AM »

Nice glass. I am guessing Sunkist Graphics did it.
Reel Tape, Pink Panther, Vision SKU: 74279-0 Part No.: 846-278-00 is for Panther Bucks. Unless someone else chimes in, I will check my machine later for reel strip #'s. Spin has 5 different one's

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #28 on:** September 04, 2016, 05:23:28 AM »

Thanks, Elvis. I want to make sure I get the correct strips. I wish there was a way to trick that vision monitor on. I sure would like to see it working before I go out buying all this stuff. Once I buy the glass and strips I'm committed.

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #29 on:** September 04, 2016, 07:25:17 AM »

Elvis, I found this pic online. Note the reel glass. It would fit my current configuration and I would need to move reels or printer (or maybe I would, not sure). It seems it may not be Panther Bucks though. I see a cherry on the reels. Panther Bucks has no cherries. I do prefer single line over 5 line. It also has the tip-toeing pink panther. Great looking machine with the topper and all.

The data card you showed goes in the top slot of the monitor. If you take the back cover off the monitor, look far left bottom by the memory cards and you will see a jumper connection. Put a jumper on it. When you turn on machine it will show computer code while it is booting. Is your monitor getting power? Is it doing anything except a black screen? Going back looking at your data card bgm00166, it is for a 5 line Dick Clark. I think that is the problem. May need bgm00066 for bonus reel game. But usually if the chip and card don't match, you get an error screen.

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #31 on:** September 05, 2016, 06:11:00 AM »

Yes, I found the thread on the jumper. It goes through the whole boot sequence like a pc from the old days. It goes pretty fast so I can't catch everything but the only thing that resembles an error is "no cd rom device installed". Makes me wish I had a keyboard that would work on it so I could explore. After the boot it goes to "initializing, please wait..." and that's it.

therockinelvis · « **Reply #32 on:** September 05, 2016, 06:36:59 AM »

Great. We know the monitor is working. The data card should go in the top slot of the monitor, not the side slot. Most will only insert one way. Since you have the CD rom on it now I know why it has Dick Clark data card. That is what your problem will end up being. I have a couple machines with the CD rom and they won't work without the correct CD in them. You may be able to unplug the CD rom but I'm sure you will need a different BGM file for your machine. I am guessing BGM00006 for bonus wheel games or BGM00066 for bonus wheel also. I have both files. That Hot Peppers is a clone of some kind of diamond machine I think.

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #33 on:** September 05, 2016, 06:45:03 AM »

I don't have a cd rom on it but it does show the error "no cd rom device found" or "no cd rom device installed" something like that. I don't actually have one on the machine. I looked at the back cover and it doesn't appear there was ever anything mounted there. I don't see bgm00166 on my data card. There are 6 stickers in date sequential order. bgm00000, bgm00013, bgm00029, bgm00055, bgm00067 and lastly bgm00068.

therockinelvis · « **Reply #34 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:21:53 AM »

Oop's post # 15 was from RB showing the Dick Clark card. Your BGM #'s seem fine with lots of different options. Try your card in the side slot then. Or try turning it around. On some the back of the card faces you. It should only fit one way, don't force it in. Usually the side slot is for updating the monitor RFA. If you can take a video of everything from boot up and post to youtube and post link here. Seeing what it is doing is almost as good as being at the machine.

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #35 on:** September 05, 2016, 08:27:38 AM »

Here is the boot sequence at half speed. Pause at about 28 seconds. That's where the CD issue comes up. I know in old school computers, if the operating system can't find a drive it will continue on to the next option until it finds one. This seems to happen here after the cd 003 message.

The computer in the monitor seems to be functioning properly. When it gets to initializing the VFD should also be then APP start, spin of the reels, please wait for monitor then ready to play. I remember the other guy that had a machine like yours, said he went into settings for bonus and set it for "Mystery Play" and it worked fine. On another note, if you go with the pink panther you need one 84629100 and two 84627300 reel strips for pick-a-panther. The one's from Rudy's are correct also.

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #37 on:** September 05, 2016, 04:51:57 PM »

Thanks, Elvis. The reel strips you mentioned are not showing to be for a vision machine.

therockinelvis · « **Reply #38 on:** September 05, 2016, 05:11:12 PM »

I went to the Spin site and compared to my PP vision. Glue was set good on mine so I couldn't see the numbers.

ianmcneil68 · « **Reply #39 on:** September 05, 2016, 05:14:11 PM »

Well I can't argue with that, can I? You're a big help. Can you post a full view of your machine? I'd like to see which glass you have. Also, is the vision setup the same after clear/key as standard S2000 or are there other options or a certain key chip. I have Key 31.
