The Cabinet Cabinet Selection You can choose either a new cabinet or a used cabinet for your Silver Strike Bowling game. Reusing a cabinet is by far the most cost-effective way to maximize the return on your initial investment. In either case, all you need to provide is the cabinet with a monitor, JAMMA harness, coin and bill acceptors, working fluorescent/marquee lights, and speakers. We provide the rest. The end result is a new game at a very low cost.
Game Electronics I/O Board Installation NOTE: Before installing any electronics make sure cabinet power switch is in the OFF position and the cabinet power is unplugged from the wall. Silver Strike Bowling comes with a specially designed I/O board that works with your cabinet's already installed JAMMA harness. The I/O board is used as a connection interface between the JAMMA and the Nighthawk Chassis. Refer to the diagram on page 9. 1.
Please refer to the following diagram as well as a detailed diagram on page 45 for correct placements when connecting cables to the I/O board: Additional Instructions For Low or Medium Resolution Monitors: To connect to a low or medium resolution RGB monitor refer to the figure below: 1. Connect one end of the 6 ft. SVGA video cable to the video out of the Nighthawk Chassis. 2. Connect the other end of the 6 ft. SVGA cable to the I/O board video in J501. 3.
Nighthawk Chassis Installation The Nighthawk Chassis houses most of the game electronics and hardware into one box that can be easily installed. Verify that the Nighthawk Chassis Power Switch is in the "ON" position. 1. Locate the area on the floor where the chassis will be placed. Make sure there is enough clearance to plug in cables. q 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. The Nighthawk Chassis measures 19" W x 7" H x 11" D. Relocate and secure any wires to make room for the chassis.
Cabinet Identification Device Installation The Cabinet Identification Device or C.I.D. is an innovative and important component. This device permanently identifies your cabinet as Silver Strike Bowling. It should remain even if another component such as the I/O board or chassis is replaced. The C.I.D. has a unique number to individualize the cabinet and is referred to as the Cabinet Identification Number. 1. Attach the C.I.D.
Trackball Preparation Install the metal trackball plate by following these steps: 1. Cut out the template (see template-page 49) with a pair of scissors along the noted line. Tape this template to the top of the control panel as far away from the monitor as possible, making sure that the trackball will clear the cabinet beneath it. NOTE: Installing the trackball as far away from the monitor as possible will prevent players' hands from hitting the monitor glass when rolling the trackball forward. 2.
Control Panel Overlay Installation - Continued 5. While holding down the overlay over the attached area, very carefully turn over one side and remove the exposed backing. Gently lay down the exposed overlay from the center outward, smoothing with your hands or a roller as you go. Be sure the overlay remains straight and square. Repeat the process with the other side of the overlay, so the entire surface is affixed to the control panel. Make sure all bubbles have been pressed out for a clean, flat surface.
Finishing The Kit Side Decals and Marquee Included with your Silver Strike Bowling kit is a set of decals to place on the side of your cabinet and a brand new marquee. This will help identify your new game as Silver Strike Bowling. By placing and installing these correctly it can help give players instant recognition, even from a distance. Side Decal Installation The following are the instructions on placing your side decals correctly on to the cabinet: 1.
