61D-14.042. Accounting and Occurrence Meter Specifications  


Effective on Wednesday, September 12, 2012
  • 1(1) There shall be a minimum of two (2) meters contained in each slot machine. One meter shall measure total credits into the slot machine. The other meter shall measure total credits out of the slot machine.

    38(2) The required electronic accounting meters are as follows:

    47(a) The amounts wagered or cash in meter shall cumulatively count the total amounts wagered during game play, except credits that are won during the game that are subsequently risked in a double-up mode;

    81(b) The number reflecting the amounts won or the award reflected on the credit out meter shall cumulatively count all amounts the player has won at the end of the game that were not paid by an attendant, including amounts paid by a ticket printer. The credit out meter shall not increment for bills inserted and cashed out to allow the slot machine to be used as a change machine. In those cases where amounts awarded are included on separate meters, the metering requirements for the credit out meter can be met by summing the number reflected on the credit out and machine paid external bonus payout meter;

    189(c) The drop meter shall maintain a cumulative count of the credit value of all bills and tickets inserted into the bill acceptor processed for play;

    257(f) Printer games do not require a cancelled credit meter unless a “printer limit” option exists on the game.

    346(4) Each individual slot machine available for play shall have at least amount bet and amount won meters in either credits or dollars.

    369(5) For each type of slot machine that offers a double-up option, there shall be two meters to indicate the amount doubled and the amount won, which shall increment every time a double-up play occurs.

    404(6) All electronic meters required by this section, except those described in subsection (5), shall communicate their information to the facility based monitoring system.
