percentage chips

[taff967]

hiya. i have got a fruit machine called skullduggery and i want to change the percentage of the machine when i bought it there was no chip in it and the machine is set at 78%. so i bought 2 new ones and i have put one at 84% but the machine still says 78% so i then put the chip at 90% but again the machine still says 78%.

can anyone help me out. thank taff

It depends what the overlaying program is within the machine and who the manufacture is. I would suggest writing or trying to contact the builders and finding out how you can overide the master setting, but 78 percent i believe was governed by law as a default pay table percentage.

Changing this, may require more than just implementing an updated microprocessor, as the controls before that chip are telling it 78 percent regardless.

Get in touch with the original manufacturer mate.

Look at the mainboard, there's a row of switches(dips) on switch bank 1 try switching numbers 1,2,3 and 4 on (which from memory is 98%)- you should see a difference( don't try the other 5,6,7,8 or you will change the stakes and jackpots) to be safe jot down the original settings first, then you can, by using different combinations of the 1,2,3,4 switches you should find the ideal % - good luck mate.
