Author Topic: Alpha with no bill acceptor or coinage, but has TITO? (Read 4537 times)

Just picked this Alpha up, it has no no bill acceptor and no coin handling but it does have a TITO and ticket printer installed. I dont see any way to add credits so it can be played. Both of the 2032 batteries were dead on the MPU so it will have to be cleared & set back up. Since I dont see a credit button installed anywhere & no signs of one of the deck buttons being wired any differently, how do I set this machine up after a clear in order to be able to add credits so it can be played? Including a pic of the machine, the TITO and the inside of the machine where there would normally be a bill acceptor

If the TITO board has the credit options enabled, you can just hit the service button on the player panel to add credits.

The credit button is the service button on far left.

Ok, so can I set that up while programming or setting up the TITO? I've never set up a TITO before so is there a tutorial somewhere or a link I can go to to teach me how to do so? I thought TITO only worked if you had a bill acceptor and tickets to use from your printer

Thanks, so after my clear and I'm in the settings, what do I do about my bill validator, just enter no bill validator? Also does it make the button on the deck just default to add credits or is there another step that's not on the video?

No DBV = No DBV

It's a default for the button.

So if I follow that YouTube video on setting up the TITO will it automatically make my service button enabled to add credits to play? It was probably already set that way but I had to do a clear because of the 2 dead 2032 batteries.

Yes.

Good deal, thanks

How do I enable the credit button options on the TITO?

rickhunter · « **Reply #14 on:** December 18, 2020, 12:03:46 PM »

The Tito board, if programmed that way, already has the credit option enabled. If you have a bettor tito standard, when you bought it, you had to request that the credit option be installed as an option, if you didn't, then the credit option will not work.

Bettor TiTO deluxe version does not have the credit option because there is not enough memory on the microcontroller used for the Bettor TITO to include both deluxe options and credit options.

On Brian's Tito board, it is usually a jumper or dip switches that you have to set to enable the option.

Ok, I will look at the board & see if it has a jumper or some dip switches, thanks

Here are 2 that I have, will either one of these work to use a credit button?

sixcardmark · « **Reply #17 on:** December 18, 2020, 12:34:32 PM »

The one on left is programmed for $10.00 credit @ .01 acc denom(1K). Try pushing the red reset button in corner of tito board.

Igt and Bally tito's are wired different at comm board. Make sure it is for bally. Check the location of the 3 pins.

Not sure if it's for a Bally machine or not but here are the 2 plugs on it
