SYSTEM INFORMATION
45M003P1UK-01
The network consists of the Novo Unity Server, the Game Server(s), a DHCP server and several
terminals. The Novo Unity Server enables the installation of software, generates the results of the
game and statistics and is used to monitor parameter settings like language settings and minimum and
maximum bet limits.
The program of the terminals and Game Servers is called Game Manager. The Game Manager transfers
data from the Novo Unity Server to the Game Server(s) and to the terminals and vice versa. Each terminal
has an IP address in order to guarantee the identification of all terminals. Therefore the Novo Unity Server
is able to transfer the right data to the right terminal/Game Server and to identify the terminal/Game
Server that has sent data to the Novo Unity Server.
The terminals/Game Servers receive the IP address from the DHCP server, which is part of the network.
The DHCP or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol is used to find a free address out of a list including
several IP addresses. This enables a safe and reliable network communication.
Each terminal/Game Server has a network card including a MAC (Media Access Control) address in order
to enable the DHCP server to identify the terminals. The MAC address is clear and unique worldwide.
Page 37
SYSTEM INFORMATION
After power up, the terminal goes through the following processes:
Start of Windows XP Embedded
Transfer of the MAC address from the terminal/Game Server to the DHCP server
Transfer of the IP address from the DHCP server to the terminal/Game Server
Start of Game Manager
Transfer of MAC and IP addresses from the terminals/Game Servers to the Novo Unity Server
Data transfer between Novo Unity Server and Game Manager
For example:
Installed Game (e.g. Novo Multi-Table Roulette)
Group and terminal settings
Game timing
Parameter settings
After receiving these data from the Novo Unity Server, the Game Manager loads the executable program
Novobase and transfers these data to Novobase.
In addition, Novo Unity allows to present all games installed on it in statistical form (accounting, wins,
player behaviour, etc.). As a database-based game platform, Novo Unity is universally expandable for
future game developments.
Page 38
45M003P1UK-01
Novobase activates the installed game to visualise the data received. Other games can be selected by
just switching to the desired game.

Prizes that are not claimed during the allocated time will forfeit.
As an option, the Two Lines win can be switched off by the casino operator.
For more detailed information please see part V Novo Unity Server, section V.3.2.3.1 Game Setup.
After the validity of prize claims for Line and Two Lines has been confirmed and the distribution of the
prize has been verified the prize is incremented in the CREDIT display area using both acoustic and visual
indication. Subsequent the drawing continues until the Bingo win occurs and is claimed by a player after
pressing the BINGO button.

Illustr. VIII.1 Cleaning of the bill acceptor
45M003P1UK-01
NOTE
Cleaning tissues for the WBA bill acceptor are available from AGI! Item no.: 86900100
Description:
If reader sensors or magnetic sensors are dirty this may result in error messages as when bills are
jammed, or the identification precision may decrease, which may result in bills being rejected more
frequently.
To clean the reader head/magnetic sensor use a soft cloth or a cotton bud.
If necessary, a standard head cleaner for cassette recorders or compressed air (from a can) can
be used.
To facilitate cleaning, take the bill acceptor unit out from its mounting.
ATTENTION
Do not use organic dissolvents such as diluents.
Do not use scouring agents!
Recommended maintenance interval: monthly
TROUBLESHOOTING
If bill acceptance does not improve after cleaning the sensors may require re-adjusting.

IX.1.3 Troubleshooting
Two T3A15 (slow-blowing) single-pole fuses function as the primary protection of the power supply. These
fuses are located at the front of the main switch.
(Please see illustr. IX.1.2)
The secondary protection T5A (slow-blowing) of the 12V voltage is located at the front of the main power
supply. This voltage has been allocated a red light emitting diode, which glows only if the fuses are intact
and if input voltage is present.
(Please see illustr. IX.1.1)
This voltage indicator is designed to facilitate service work providing some preliminary information.
For more precise information on any incorrect operating voltages, measurements must be taken using
appropriate instruments.
In addition, all connectors should be checked.

Set dip switches 8, 7, 6 and 5 to ON.
Set dip switches 1, 2, 3 and 4 to OFF.
Connect the WBA to the power supply, by inserting the acceptor unit in the acceptor frame. The
emergency transport motor will first run forward approximately 2 seconds and then briefly reverse.
Insert the reference paper KS-039 (item number: 40150146) with the black end in first. The WBA
pulls the paper in automatically and moves it forwards and backwards several times. The autoadjustment is completed once the reference paper has been ejected and the transport motor has
come to a halt. After that, the acceptor requires another approximately 2-3 seconds to write the data
to the internal memory chip.
Disconnect the acceptor unit from the power supply again and return the dip switches to their
original position (normally OFF position).

IX.15.2 Operation
To scan in a ticket approach it to the barcode reader starting at a distance of about 20 cm away from the
reader. After the barcode has been detected and read the ticket is clearly identified by the proprietary
cashdesk program specifically developed for this purpose. This program compares the 40-digit encrypted
barcode (ticket number) with all tickets stored in the Novo Unity Server database and confirms it by
sending a visual release signal (green bar with the corresponding payout amount).
IX.15.4 Security
Paper:
Special paper using ultraviolet imprint provides high counterfeit protection. The imprint glows when held
under an UV lamp (e.g. device used to detect counterfeit bills).
Barcode Reader:
The barcode reader detects only 40-digit barcodes with Interleaved 2/5 Codes.
Page 382
45M003P1UK-01
The cashdesk program is installed on a WINDOWS XP computer (or higher version) which is connected
to the Novo Unity Server to enable data transfer. The ticket data are sent from the terminals to the Novo
Unity Server PC, where they will be stored. After a ticket has been scanned with the barcode reader the
cashdesk PC will compare the ticket data with those stored on the Novo Unity Server PC. If the data
agree a copy of the ticket data will be made on the cashdesk PC and the payout will be released.
HARDWARE
IX.15.5 Tickets
Depending on the printer installed in the terminal the following information is indicated on the ticket. The
data are also included in the barcode to guarantee the authenticity of a ticket. All tickets that are scanned
can only be paid out once. Should a ticket be scanned a second time, an alert message is displayed on
the screen. Ticket-related parameters can be set on the Novo Unity Server.

IX.19.2 Explanation
The modem facilitates the coordination of work between casino technicians and AGI's Technical Support
team (employees of AGI) by providing a tool for both to view the desktop (the on-screen display of the
program running on the terminal) at the same time. A remote program, NetSupport, allows the Technical
Support to view software and hardware related technical problems from the point of view of the technician
(game view).
IX.19.3 Function
Security:
In the normal game operation, the system is operated off-line, that means that there is no physical
connection (modem cable) between the gaming system and the world outside. In the event of an error, the
casino technician connects the modem cable to an existing telephone socket (direct ISDN line or direct
analogue line).
Software security:
A program version (Master) specially licensed for AGI, allows a remote log-on to the terminals (clients).
The access is restricted exclusively to members of the Technical Support team of AGI.
For security reasons, a protocol file is maintained at the Master registering every step that is performed
on the terminal. This protocol file exists on each client and can be viewed by the authorised system
administrator or casino technician. A comparison between the protocol file of the master and the protocol
file of the client can be made at any time.
Visual control:
The authorised casino technician can observe every step performed on the server or the client.
IX.19.4 Troubleshooting
Check the connecting plug of the modem.
In the event of any problems please contact the Technical Support of AGI.

Administrative mode means that an authorised person has placed the machine in an unplayable
state in order to access the setup or recall functions of a machine game.
Disabled mode means that an authorised person has placed the machine in an unplayable state
for any reason other than those described in administrative mode.
Tilt mode means that the machine placed itself in an unplayable state due to some type of
malfunction or an exception condition whereby the machine cannot return to a playable state
without intervention by an authorised person.
