lotr. don't have a manual handy..

#53: flipper adj 1 (default 20)
#54: flipper adj 2 (default 50)
#55: flipper adj 3 (default 3)

anything to do with strength?

thanks!

That's some nifty settings to have on a machine.

thanks erik!

that's some odd settings for sure...

so if my issue is that even with the flipper coil strength set to "low", the flippers are too strong, then i guess my best bet is to set all three of those fine adjustments as low as they go? or somewhere in that vicinity?

From what I've seen adjusting the "coil strength" menu setting is for all coils other than flippers, I didn't notice any change in the flippers.

I switched to the PB life coils a few weeks ago after dealing with flipper fade after trying everything for the last 7 years. Is that what you did?

I turned the first two of those settings to 10 and 40 and it made a noticeable difference, might try that! Doesn't hurt anything to try anyways.

actually this machine is NIB. it's so crisp, that the flippers are too strong from the factory. even when set to "low" power in the settings.

gonna try those flipper fine tuning adjustments...

Those straight power settings don't affect the flipper coils, just the others.
