Screen Calibration

The machine must be in the idle mode or game select

mode to calibrate the touchscreen.

• Find the “CALIBRATE” button located behind the

coin mech and press it to enter the screen

calibration mode.

• Touch the center of the first circle that appears on

the screen. Once you release your finger, a

second circle will appear on the screen.

NOTE: YOU MUST HOLD YOUR FINGER ON THE CIRCLE FOR

APPROXIMATELY 2 SECONDS FOR THE

CALIBRATION TO BE RECOGNIZED.

• Touch the center of the second circle that appears

on the screen.

• Once the second circle is touched, a crosshair will

appear on the screen. To test the calibration of the

screen, touch the crosshair with your finger and

slowly drag your finger around the screen. The

crosshair should follow your movement.

• Touch the “EXIT TEST” icon.

•

NOTE: On upright models, if you open the monitor

door while the machine is on, you will have to

recalibrate the touchscreen.

Degaussing your Monitor

If your monitor is displaying “purity problems,” (a

display with purity problems will have parts of an all-

white screen affected by blotches of color) the monitor

needs to be degaussed using a “degaussing coil.” A

degaussing coil is a circular electromagnet, used to

cancel out any stray magnetic fields that may build up

on a metal object.

All of our monitors have built-in degaussing coils that

are automatically activated on power-up. If your game

is experiencing minor purity problems, try powering

down the game for 5 minutes and then reapplying

power to activate the degaussing coil. If the problem is

not corrected, you will have to use a manual-

degaussing coil.

Follow the instructions below for degaussing a monitor.

1. Plug in your degaussing coil.

2. Hold the coil about three feet from the monitor,

press the trigger to activate the magnetic field (for

circular-shaped coils, orient the coil so you see

the monitor through the hole in the middle; for

wand-shaped coils, points the wand towards the

screen).

3. Move the coil in a circular motion around the face

of the monitor and slowly approach the game.

4. Continuing to move the coil in a circular motion,

slowly back away from the monitor.

5. 5a. CIRCULAR-SHAPED COILS: When you are

about three feet away, quickly turn the coil

perpendicular to the monitor and release the

trigger.

6. 5b. WAND-SHAPED COILS: When you are about

three feet away, point the wand away from the

monitor and release the trigger.

Monitor Colors Adjustment

Procedure

For adjusting the colors on any of our monitor types,

we suggest following the procedures described below.

The vertical/horizontal controls and brightness/contrast

controls are located on the monitor control panel,

Velcroed inside the game. The monitor RGB controls

are located on the monitor neckboard. Adjust the RGB

controls until the screens look as suggested in the

following steps.

Ducksan/Telco/Tatung Monitors

1. Set the game to the Checkerz game screen.

2. Adjust the vertical and horizontal size and vertical

and horizontal position to make sure that the

game screen fills the monitor screen and that the

game screen is centered.

3. Adjust the brightness and contrast controls until

the top sets of checkers are rich red and the

bottom set are a dark gray. The feet on the

“Checkerz” character should be white. (Adjusting
