Aprons almost done, LVs almost here- whoah, it's finally happening... I've been waiting since the creation of the Heighway machine to own this one!

Does anyone have any vids of the LV beacons in action? It may help people decide on if it's worth replacing them?

I received my apron last week - unpacked today and got all ready to set up, only to find I have no network cables included?

#1322 1 year ago

Done. Is it just regular cat6 cable? I do have a store close by that I can get some from.

Quoted from brado426:

It should have included a 6 ft CAT6 cable and a 4 ft CAT6 cable.

So they are just regular cat6, nothing different about them? I thought perhaps they were modified since they were colour coded.

If its just standard cat6 I can just go get some.

Quoted from bigdaddy07:

I thought mine were not included a first but found them in the box with the beacons. You might check there.

Yep the guys sent me a PM explaining that. However, the beacons haven't arrived yet - still on the way.

I seem to be falling at the first hurdle here... I just can't get the original apron off. I undo the 2 screws but it won't lift off, push forward or budge. Has anyone else had to unscrew or unclip anything elsewhere? It looks like the tabs inside the playfield are holding it on but I can't seem to unhook them as the apron won't push forward?

Quoted from Zablon:

I beleive you also have to undo the screw by the shooter lane.

Ok thanks I'll have a look for that. The instruction video only mentions the 2 screws at the front.

So... ive managed to get the old apron off but my god it wasn't easy. There weren't any other screws but it was wedged very tight between the playfield and the tabs keeping it in place. I had to lterally bend/pry it off. I also had to Dremel off the metal on the new apron as it wouldn't fit over the shooter lane(as someone else here also had to do).

So now I have 2 issues - one is same as above in that the opto cables that plug into board 8 are not as they appear in the instructions. My opto 2 upper cable has the missing connection on the left, not in the middle. So my question is - do we plug in as normal or do we absolutely have to ensure that the cable at the top of aux board 8 have the missing connectors in the middle?

Second issue is the software - I have installed .net core 3.1 but the Annunciator sofware still won't install and says the .net core is required...?

I'm really not having much luck with this... I got the software installed and updated the firmware on the apron, but after connecting all cables, there's no power to it - no lights come on and when the machine starts up the mother switch keeps kicking (I guess it thinks there is a ball in there). I double checked all the cables were correct and they are... ive disconnected everything for now and I'll reconnect the original optos etc but this is proving to be a little troublesome. I guess I'll have to raise this through the website too.
