WATCHDOG RESET
WATCHDOG RESET TEST CONFIRMATION BOX
The Watchdog Reset Test checks the function of the game’s watchdog circuit by causing a forced reset.
Use the operator control switches to select the Watchdog Reset Test, then press TEST to activate it.
This test is similar to the restart command available on many personal computers.
Note:
Use caution when performing a Watchdog Reset Test. Although game information should not be
affected, audit data could be changed. Once data has been changed, it cannot be restored. Use
the “Save Audits to Floppy Disk” option on the Game Utilities Menu to save the data for analysis.
When the operator chooses the Watchdog Reset Test, a confirmation box appears superimposed on the
screen (as shown above). Select YES to reset the game or NO to return to the Diagnostics Menu. Upon
reset, the screen blanks and the game starts up again. Note and record any messages that occur during
this startup sequence.
