    I used to set them at 6, but, you get more smaller wins and screen action set on 3 or 4

    Welcome to Pachitalk!

    This should help with setting the odds

    Changing the odds:

    - Turn the machine off.
    - Put the reset key in the reset lock and turn it on.
    - Turn on the machine.
    - Press the reset button/switch. Each press changes the odds setting and will show in the credit display on the front door or a small LED screen on the inside back of your door. When it shows the odds setting you want, stop pressing the reset button.
    - Press the spin knob down for a few seconds.
    - Turn the reset key back to off.

    There's also a video of setting the odds in the Pachislo manual on my youtube page in my signature link. Scrub the Bellco Automatic Operation video to 19:00.

    I have all of mine set at 4. Seems to be a decent balance between bonus' and smaller wins.

    WAIT a minute! Back the truck up!
    You can change the skill level on these things? When you are all done laughing at the noob(me), tell me how to do it. I'd love to mess around with the different levels.
    I wonder what else my Pachi can do that i didn't now about? Hmm..

    I posted a link to the PDF pachislo manual in your other thread, it includes how to set levels



    You can do this as part of the hard reset procedure as follows:


    Here is some info that explains how to reset a pachislo, as part of this process it includes how to change and set the skill level, you must follow all steps carefully

    "How To Set the Skill Levels of Your Pachislo
    HOW CHANGE ODDS:

    "TURN YOUR MACHINE OFF FIRST"

    1. Locate internal key switch, and insert key.
    Note: In order to change odds, machine must be in idle mode with no tokens/coins or credits being played and off.

    2. Turn "reset" key switch to on, to access programming mode.

    3. Turn on machine now.

    4. Depending on machine type, a number from 1 to 6 will be displayed on one of the LED meters on front door. (please note on some models the numbers could be displayed inside the machine)

    5. Locate and push Skill button. Depress button and notice movement of number being displayed in LED meter.

    6. Once desired level is displayed (1 to 6), push down on play handle (Joy Stick) for 10 seconds, and depress both "BET CREDITS" and "COLLECT CREDITS" buttons to lock odds level into machine memory.

    7. Turn "reset" key back to off.

    8. Machine should immediately initialize. If not, turn power switch to the OFF position, wait 15 seconds and turn power switch back to ON position.


    Also just to confirm some additional info (from member Chrisdice) regarding hard reset

    Two switches on the power supply:
    - One requires a soft reset at the end of a bonus.
    - The other pays out all tokens at the end of a bonus.

    For these switches in most cases off is in the down or right position. The for off and on are:

    無 = off

    有 = on

    I have my Jet Set Radio set to 4. There are 2 bonus rounds I don't know what to do in, so, I try not to get to them. 4 usually only gets JET CHANCE at the most, no mini-games.

    Since my original post back in 2005, I change mine around. For me, normally I keep them at 3. For parties. Like so many others, I'll change the odds to 6, guests and grandkids love hitting the jackpots. Also for parties I crank up the volume as high as it will go.

    For me and my Top Gun machine, I tried levels 5 and 6 and there was zero difference in gameplay from the default "1" that I could tell. I even confirmed the setting number (it is on the front cabinet, payout LED segment) did not go back to 1. With 5 or 6, I was opening the machine just as much to snag additional tokens to use! I do not keep the machine plugged in all the time, so the payout setting keeps getting reset to 1 when I decide to work through some boredom and play a little! ;-)
