IGT S2000 - Cannot increase max credits - help!

[carniello]

Hello all,

I'm working on a friends game; IGT S2000. I added a TITO board (set to add 1000 credits when activated -that is the lowest amount).
Great, no problem, it works. Well, after a couple pulls, we had more than a 1000 and the bell rang and we had to turn the jackpot key.
Well, I hit the button to add more credits and the bell went off and we had to turn the jackpot key again.

My settings:
Denomination $1
Coinless mode = enabled
Ticket printer = none
There is no hopper; It just takes bills, There is a ticket printer but I disabled it because we are not sure it it works.


We went into options and could not change limits  (we had credits on machine). Ok, clear memory and setup again.
With no credits, we went into options and still could not change limits. It said something like coinless mode was enabled.

After doing some research here, I think I need to disable coinless mode, then go into options a set limits.

What ya think?

If there are credits on the machine you can't set limits

Should have nothing to do with coinless mode. With no credits on the machine, check jackpot limit and increase it if needed, then increase the Credit Limit.

I did have to clear memory to wipe credits to zero.
So, I should increase jackpot limit first then credit ?

You can also change accounting denom to $.50 , then it would add 500 credits. I believe that Tito instructions say to disable coinless mode. No credits on machine to change limits.

...With no credits, we went into options and still could not change limits...

This is how you change the limits on an S2000...>>>

Limits (Option: [3.1.4])
 Select the Limits screen to adjust the hopper, credit, jackpot and bill acceptor credit limits:
 •Hopper Limit – determines the maximum number of coins the machine will pay from the hopper.
 •Credit Limit – sets the maximum number of credits that the machine will allow on its credit meter.
If the player attempts to insert more coins, the machine will divert them to the coin tray.
 •Jackpot Limit – determines the maximum number of credits that can be won from one game before the machine triggers a hand pay condition.
This limit must be greater than or equal to the hopper limit.
 •Bill Credit Limit – defines the maximum number of credits that can be put on the credit meter by inserting a bill.
The limit must be less than the credit limit and $2,500.

 Use the following procedure to set the machine limits:
 1. The current limits are displayed on the screen.
Press the CASH/ CREDIT switch to navigate between fields.

 2. Press the SPIN REELS switch to change the limit amount.
Use the following switches to change the value:
 a. CHANGE – to navigate among the digits
 b. CASH/CREDIT – to increment a digit

 3. Press the SPIN REELS switch to reset the value or press the PLAY MAX CREDITS switch to save the changes and exit the field.

 4. Press the PLAY MAX CREDITS switch to save the changes and exit the screen.
