The display will contain a description of each step, the step number, and two different bookkeeping values. The value in the leftmost column represents long term bookkeeping. The value in the rightuwet Colum (in brackets) represents short term bookkeeping. These two values are provided so that the nperatar may compare recent performance with long term performance and then make any necessary game adjustments. NOTE: The left column of the first four steps (coin chute counts) will not be displayed unless the credit button is pressed during that active step number. The left flipper button will allow the operator to reset all of the left Geng term) and right (chort term) bookkeeping values. The right flipper button will allow the operator to reset all of the right (short term) bookkeeping values only. If the R,BOOK AUTO-RESET adjustment is on, the right (short term) bookkeeping will automatically be reset after every 2000 plays (see Game Adjustments). Therefore, the operator doco not need te reset the short term bookkeeping himself unless he prefers to follow his own procedure. Also, this feature will aid in adjusting the game payout percentage to the caliber of players in different locations. If there happens to be a najor error in a long term bookkeeping value the word ERROR will appear to the right of that bookkeeping value. Tu wuisect Luis error the long term bookkeeping must be reset. A description of each bookkeeping step ix given in the tect mode flowchart. ti GAME ADJUSTMENTS This function allows the operator to make any adjustments to his game as nevesbary. A.
