809zh with filter board

[Phan000]

I picked up a neat 809 last night.  Looks clean, but has an filter board on the reel
Mech plug.  Any idea what this is for?

I've been waiting for davidlee to identify it ... still hoping.

I'd guess it was for integrating the machine in a bank of games that had a shared progressive jackpot or other shared prized.

would need more info on what the wires on the terminal block are going to and the bally wire colors they are attached to.

Wolftalk,

One use for filter boards, is to manage electrical frequency noise as to not interfere with
radio waves.

Tracing the wires and a good look at the components might reveal the purpose.

If the wires in and out match the machines schematic as in making a complete circuit,
this could be a possibility.

Next would be to Google the information on the board, slim chance something might pop up.
