I've been watching a (almost) local auction site that is doing it's annual machine/arcade/really bizarre stuff auction and noticed a S2000 advertised as a "parts only" machine because it was missing the "ticket reader". Hmm, ticket printer.. check, dbv.. check, cash can .. check. Just couldn't resist as that made absolutely no sense to me! On inspection, I think they were referring to player tracking/card slots that the casino's usually pulls anyhow along with the main lock set. WTH??, Couldn't pass and picked it up for a song. Figured it might need a PS or something along that line?
Got it home, up on a stand and, just knew my son couldn't resist the temptation to dive in (honestly I hoped it might take a little longer to sort it out). Five minutes later and a few "what the heck is that noise??" alerts it's up and running after finding a poorly seated main AC cord!
Now honestly, I have really not followed the S2000 threads up to this point. It appears that the wrong button cell is installed? Should I care or does it really need a 2032 (I assume that is right one) ? A see it has a Varta and just assume I should yank that per standard recommendation but have a question. I see that there are some comments that the S2000 comes with two different MPUs and it's said that only the 1270 MPU needs to have the U16 removed. In either case, what are the potential problems if it isn't?
Sorry that I'm a total noob on the S2000. Is there a similar configuration guideline for setting options on the S2000 like I've seen for the S+ and GK? Obviously I want to add TITO to this machine and net it with the GK for adding credits but just for our very brief .... (HS!!! It works and plays??) run it appears that the cash-out goes straight to hand pay.
