AUDITS MODE
The Audits Mode allows the operator to view statistics in all areas of the Game Play.
This enables the operator to make calculated adjustments and “Fine Tune” the
machine to maximize earning potential. The Audits mode stores bookkeeping of the
games processed since the last game audits reset. While in this mode, the game audits
can also be reset to zero.
The Stack N Grab has thirty seven Audits that can be viewed in this mode. They are
A01 to A37 and their codes and values are displayed alternatively during the Audit
Mode.
Example: Code A01 will be displayed as A 0 1 and a value of 421 as 4 2 1
on the 4-digit display.

Or it will display large values like 21589 as - - - 2 and 1 5 8 9 on
the 4-digit display.

ERRORS AND TROUBLESHOOTING

If the Game microprocessor detects any problems with the operation of the game, an
Error will be displayed on the 4-digit display and the machine will play a voice
message. “Please Call the Attendant/ be a Winner”. Some error Messages will only be
displayed when test mode is entered. Errors are displayed on the displays as E r r X ,
where „X‟ is the error number. There are five error messages for Stack N Grab, listed
as follows:

TROUBLESHOOTING GAME ERRORS
 CLEARING GAME ERRORS

Game errors can be cleared, by pushing the test button ONCE. The game
will try and check if the error is fixed. If the reason for the error is fixed,
the game will continue as normal. If the error is not fixed, the error will
remain on the display. For a Hard Error (Err4) Power OFF and ON the
game will clear the error.
 Err1 – TICKET/CAPSULE ERROR
This error is usually displayed if the optional ticket /capsule dispenser does not
function properly, or if tickets/capsules are jammed. Check the ticket/capsule
dispenser is full, Check the ticket/capsule sensor/switch and make sure they are
working properly, you can check this with your hand on the Capsule dispenser to
make sure the sensor/switches are working also make sure the micro switch wiring
is connected to the Normal Open and the Common contact of the micro switch.
For a Ticket dispenser a ticket can be pushed in and out of the sensor to test it Use
the switch test to help check the sensor/switch, an active switch will display as C1
in switch test.. Use a Digital Multimeter to check the voltage drive from the main
CPU output to the motor or ticket/capsule connector.
 Err2 – STACK BUTTON JAMMED

This error is usually displayed if the STACK button is active or jammed
on for longer than 30 seconds. Check the mechanical operation of the
Stack button and also the micro switch. Lastly make sure the micro switch
wiring is connected to the Normal Open and the Common contact of the
micro switch. Use the Switch Test to help check the Stack button, an
active/pushed button will be display as C3,
 Err3 – EEPROM ERROR
This Error means that the CPU cannot read the EEPROM, or is receiving
errors during communication with the EEPROM (The 23C16 IC on the
main MCU PCB). This could cause problems with the game audits and
program settings. The first thing to do is try to switch the machine ON and
OFF at least 2 times. If the message still appears then replace the
EEPROM IC (Atmel 24C16) on the CPU PCB with the new EEPROM. If
there is still an error message, this could be a problem with the game
audits and program. If this error cannot be cleared, please send your main
MCU PCB to the nearest authorized LAI Games Distributor for repair.
 Err4 – PRIZE DEPLOYMENT ERROR
This error is displayed when the Claw is faulty, the Prize Sensor is not
functioning either during the start up test or in game play and/or there are
no Toys inside the cabinet and the game times out. This is a hard Error and
will stop the game operating but you can still access the test mode by
pressing the test button twice for fault finding the problem.
Note: Err4 can also occur when the claw rope winds around the pulley
incorrectly and the claw is held up in the gantry. To clear this simply
press and hold the Up switch inside the gantry for the claw to be
released then redo the rope and wind it correctly. (Refer to the “Rope
Winding For the Claw” diagram in the Service Section of this manual.)
Page 36
© LAI GAMES
 Err5 – PRIZE SENSOR BLOCKED or PRIZE SENSOR FAULTY

This error occurs if the prize sensor is blocked or a prize is jammed in the
prize chute, blocking the infrared beam of the prize sensor for longer than
5 seconds. Clear the blockage in front of the sensor; re adjust the sensor by
turning the sensitivity screw in the sensor body if required.
 Err8 – HOME SWITCH GANTRY ERROR

This error occurs if the Gantry home position switch is not functioning or
the crane gantry has not properly returned to the home position, (Front/left
position). Check the switch condition and operation, the motor and the
switch stopper and check the connection and the wiring to this switch.
