S2000 ERROR CODE

[Pinaddicted]

I received the slot with a SS6993 chip installed in the spot that is normally empty, it does nothing with that chip installed, not even a message screen. After removing the SS chip this is where I am....

Call Attendant
Alarm when door opened
Turn key once... get this code....  SS EPROM INVALID -0xF011
Twice... critical data could be lost
Three times... press test button 2-3 seconds
Close door
Initializing
Please wait testing memory

Then back to Call Attendant. I have no idea what that SS EPROM INVALID code is.

In order to use an SS reel chip on an S2000, you must occupy the U21 socket with an SB001000 chip.
Also, the S+ reel prom chip (SS6993) must be inserted into the U17 socket with the notch on the chip body AWAY from the U17 etching on the MPU circuit board.

I have another person that said the same thing, it was installed at the other end of the socket when I received the slot.

He also mentioned that it could be blown because it was installed wrong, and a 27c64 chip (which it is) may not be fast enough also.

Does that chip stay on the board all the time? All the pictures I've seen of these boards, that socket is empty.

[Stayouttadabunker]

First of all, you did NOT confirm if you have the SB001000 chip installed or not.
You have a 92% Triple Diamond 5 Line game.
It needs to stay in if that's what the award glass and reel strips are...
You can change the game if you want, or get a new, faster chip for the game - if you think it's burned out.
To change the game, you'd have to change the chips, the reel strips, the top box award glass, and the belly door glass.
Sometimes even the reel glass and other display components.
These S2000 slot machines have pretty much the same cabinets, just different games and stuff in them.

I'm learning slowly how these work. Yes, I do have the SB001000 chip installed, and I ordered a new faster SS chip. We'll see if that solves the issues mentioned above. I should have the new chip in a couple days.

[Pinaddicted]

Ok, I received the faster SS6992 chip today and after installation it has a new EPROM DEVICE ERROR -0x4. Would it be a good idea to do a reset and start from scratch?

Can I use the clear and key chips (IVC00224 and key00045) that had never been used by the previous owner to reset this machine, or do I need different ones? This machine is coinless, with a ticket printer, and multidenominational.  Is it ok to leave the SS chip in during the clear/key process? Do I even need to do a reset?

With the door open, just turn the jackpot reset key 4 times and then hold in the white test button for 5 seconds and close the door. Wait for the reels to spin.

That process gets me the previously mentioned error code. Turning the key once gets me to accounting and won't go further no matter how many times I turn the key. The only way to get to the push test button 2 to 3 seconds screen is to remove/replace the battery and turn on the machine. If I back out of the accounting screen it says...
 
Call Attendant
Closure M
Machine type mismatch

This is what is making me think it needs to be reset.

[RB]

Time to key chip.

[dailey]

Machine type mismatch is simple to correct. Key the machine, then go into the key chip config menu 7.1 and look for "MACHINE TYPE".  If this is an upright machine, select UPRIGHT. Sometimes the wrong machine type is selected when you do a battery change.

[Pinaddicted]

Are Clear chip IVC00224 and Key00045 the correct ones to use? The previous owner also gave me these three chips.... IGT S+ Ram Clear, IGT S+ BV ON/OFF, and IGT S+ SP 731

[dailey]

What SG chips are you running?

[Pinaddicted]

SG000363

[dailey]

You need Key 00031.  Clearing is seldom necessary. I would try just keying it first.

[Pinaddicted]

I'll try more tomorrow, I used the Key 45 and got into config but navigation was confusing. Somehow, I changed it to 1 credit = $5000 then accidentally exited the menu. Looks like I'll have to start the process again, marking the buttons might make navigation a little easier for this newbie... lol

Why the different numbered Key chips, do they all have different base programs and all you're doing is setting preferences?

Thanks for your help!!!!

You do not need Key 31. It was replaced by Key 45. 45 will do any S2000 except those with a R board.

[Pinaddicted]

Thanks for the clarification on key chip 45

This game has a multi denomination badge and button, I understand that this is more difficult to set up. I assume that there are ways to change the display in the reel glass to 25 cents, but what about the button? Is it really that difficult to set up multi denomination?

I found a decent YouTube video on keying a game for 25 cents, but nothing on multi denomination. The guy is pretty fast and a little difficult to follow but if I mark the buttons I could probably get through it.

Any suggestions on some good video/printed instructions for keying a machine?

Thanks again for everyone's help!!!

Can you explain what an R board is? Mine has an extra board that is elevated on the left side that says MULTIMEDIA LITE and PN 76924401 it also has a gray and blue capacitor mounted to it.

[millionaire2k]

You don't have an R Board.  However pictures of your board/machine go a long way in helping.

[Pinaddicted]

I finally got it going/configured with help from a YouTube video, one that didn't race through the process. Now that I've successfully done it, it'll be easier next time.

Is there a reason why the BV accepts the new style $50 bill but rejects the new style $100 bill, Is this a setting also?
