The following table provides information on the functionality of the hard DIP switches in
Megatouch games. Make sure to read the information in the Notes column to determine
what is affected when performing these functions. After performing any DIP switch
function, make sure to follow the instructions on the screen. In most cases, you will be
instructed to reset the DIP switch in order to reboot the game. If you fail to reset the DIP
switch before rebooting, it could result in corruption of the hard drive.
NOTE: In FORCE 2005 and Jade software, the DIP switch functionality is built into the
software. To access the DIP switches through the software, turn off the game, set DIP
switch 1 to the closed position then turn the power on. When the message "Please
reset DIP 1 to proceed" appears, reset DIP 1 to the open position. The Merit diagnostics
page will appear. Touch ? for information on DIP switch functionality. Touch the specific
DIP switch to activate it. Touch X to exit.

Usage/Notes
• Configures the CMOS settings on the motherboard to Merit
specifications and checks the files on the hard drive.
A checksum test should be performed when the game is locking
up or rebooting. If the test fails, the program should be reloaded
onto the hard drive. After reloading, perform another checksum
test. If it fails again, the hard drive should be replaced.
• Identifies system hardware and configures the motherboard.
A hardware configuration occasionally needs to be performed
after a kit is installed and the touchscreen is not responding to
touch or the calibration is off.
• Clears the login name, password, access phone number, and
all call-in settings for TournaCHAMP users.
• Clears all the loaded albums for TouchTunes users.
• Clears current books, coin-in, high scores and resets the
software options.
A memory clear should be performed when a game is not able
to connect to TournaCHAMP and there is some question about
the information in the Dial-Up Network Screen being correct.
After performing a memory clear, TournaCHAMP setup
information must be re-entered, and an Update From Server
should be performed.
NOTE: TournaCHAMP games must perform an "Update
From Server" BEFORE performing a memory clear.
• Clears
ALL
memory
TournaCHAMP player database, TournaCHAMP settings,
advertising screens, bookkeeping, high scores, coin-in,
options, etc. It resets the game to the factory defaults. It also
marks bad sectors on hard drive.
A complete memory clear should only be performed when the
game is locking up or resetting and it has passed the checksum
test. After performing a memory clear, the player database
should be reloaded, TournaCHAMP setup information must be
re-entered, and an Update From Server should be performed.
NOTE: TournaCHAMP games must perform an "Update
From Server" BEFORE performing a memory clear.
• When the watchdog timer is enabled, it will reboot the
machine within 2 minutes of a failure, allowing the game to
automatically reset itself if a problem arises.
