I have a magical odds slot machine with no manual. Does anyone know How to change the DIP settings?
Pamela S asked:
I have recently recieved a slot machine called “Magical Odds”. I want to remove the nudy lady and bring the winning odds down. I have been told I need to change the DIP setting on the logicboard but have no idea on how to do this? I have found four blue sets of switches on the board but would have no idea on which ones I would need to begin switching.
Answer
It can be difficult to determine the correct DIP switch settings for a slot machine without the manual, but there are a few general tips that can help.
Firstly, it is important to note that changing the DIP switch settings can be a delicate process and if done incorrectly, can potentially damage the machine or make it unusable. Therefore, it is recommended to seek professional assistance from a licensed technician or the manufacturer of the slot machine.
If seeking professional assistance is not an option, the first step would be to identify the exact make and model of the slot machine. This information can usually be found on the machine itself or on the back panel. Once the make and model are identified, research online to find a manual or technical guide for the specific machine.
If a manual or technical guide cannot be found, it is possible to experiment with the DIP switch settings to see what effect they have on the machine. It is important to note, however, that this process can be time-consuming and may not yield the desired results.
When experimenting with the DIP switch settings, it is recommended to make small changes and document the results. Start with changing only one switch at a time and test the machine to see what effect it has on the game. If the desired outcome is not achieved, revert the switch back to its original position and move on to the next switch.
Finally, if unsure about the process or uncomfortable with making changes to the DIP switch settings, it is best to seek professional assistance. A licensed technician or the manufacturer can provide the necessary guidance to make the changes safely and effectively.
My only suggestion would be to contact Mead Publishing and see if they have the manual you need. I have attached the link to their site.
They carry several slot machine manuals. I bought one for my Bally machine from them a few years ago, and it’s very helpful.
Good luck.
