Quoted from DonnyBrsco:

For imdn node boArd test when plugged in normal without the qr it displays the following. Cpu is at 0.50 and the rest are the same version as code node 9..This is what I see when I remove the qr and have no errors.. When I add the qr back in it says node 9 not initiated even after a bus test.

Quoted from shaub:

I received the file for a coin door mount for the qr reader from mattosborn and made some modifications in order to accommodate a 4-way manual network switch. I've never worked with 3d printer files or anything before but I did my best to make something functional and plan on making additional changes, getting it re-printed, sanding it, and painting it with a hammered black spray paint to better match the coin door. I'm very happy with the result and it is certainly better than opening the coin door to change which game is "connected." Again, huge shout out to mattosborn for sharing his work. I'd also like to give another shoutout to KingVidiot for his explanation of how to configure a network switch to utilize a single qr reader between multiple machines.

Quoted from shaub:

Here's a pic of inside the coin door. It actually worked out a lot cleaner than I expected. Each of the rightmost cat5 cables run to a connector in the head of each of my games.
I'll gladly share the .stl, but I just have a couple of tweaks I'd like to make and test for a "final" version before I do that.[quoted image]

You can delete a current registration on Godzilla I don't know about older games.

Quoted from Brk_oth:

It seems to go down quite often. I used to get excited thinking there was new features being added but so far I've never noticed any differences.
When I've noticed it, its normally during the middle of the night in the US (around 3am chicago time), so for us in Australia its normally during our busy time with customers.
Getting an email regarding planned outages would be greatly appreciated!

Quoted from davegauth:

There are many ways to do this - I did a summary a couple months ago with the different options and pro's and cons. (click my silhouette, and go back a few posts)
A big question you need to ask yourself is - Do you need it to turn on and off automatically, or will someone be there to turn the TV on and off everyday? This kind of drives the primary direction you need to go in. The next question is do you just want to display the leaderboard, or do you want it to also display digital signage too? Answering these questions first will point you to the setup you will need.

Quoted from davegauth:

As a follow up for operator looking to install Leaderboards on location.
Summary first: I'm going with Option 1 below. I like the idea of making additional signage/advertising that can be rotated on the display. Different leaderboards can also be rotated on the display. Being able to turn on and off wby themselves is also a big plus. One twist I will try is to use an HDMI splitter so 1 account can run 2 displays. I'll grab a couple of TV's on Prime day too...
Option 1 - Setup a Leader Board using Yodek (Sign Service, using Rasberry Pi) - 1 free Screen, Can get a Rasberry Pi included with yearly subscription, can turn Tv on and off at set times. Because it is a signage service, you can do a ton more than just.

Option 2 - Using Android TV This link shows how to use the ONN stick or box connected to your TV. I do not know if this can turn on and off your TV, or if the APP will automatically launch on start up.

Option 3 - Just use a Smart TV and use the/a web browser app in it to display the website. This works, as I tried it on my home TV - but it's cumbersome as you will need to turn the TV on and navigate to the Browser APP every time you turn it on.
Option 4 - Use a Fire TV stick or a Tv running Fire TV and download the Simple Tv Display app($20). This is supposed to automatically boot and default to the web page. Not sure if the Fire Tv's cna be set to turn on and off by themselves at set times though. A big consideration is Amazon prime day is just a week away and all the Amazon Fire TV devices and Tv's will probably be available for a big discount.

Quoted from davegauth:

Plungerboy Thank you,
I do have some updates to that post, I should probably create a new one with the new information.
Just FYI - I am using the Yodek player. I purchased the Rasbery pie from Yodek and have it on the 1 free account. I ran into trouble getting it to turn the Tv on and off.
* Your TV needs to have HDMI with CEC. most do, but some don't. Also you need to ensure CEC is enabled in the settings of the TV.
* You need to make sure your Tv is not in Eco mode. Eco mode turns off the standby aspect of the TV to save power. This means it will not see the signal the Yodek player send to the Tv to turn on and off.
* You must keep your TV plugged in to constant power. I have everything on a smart timer. But with my particular TV when the power is cut(like a smart plug does) the TV defaults to OFF... I mean fully OFF. It will not go back into standby type modes until you physically turn the back on manually. The Yodek player will not be able to turn it back on until it's back in the standby type mode.
Different TV's may react differently. But these are the gotchas I ran into.
What I do.... The Brewery hours are 12-10pm. I have the TV plugged directly into a wall outlet, with no smart timer. The Yodek player is connected to the smart timer that turns off at 10:05pm, and back on at 12pm the next day. I have the Yodek scheduled to turn the TV off at 10PM at night, this puts the TV into standby mode. I then have the Yodek schedule set to turn the TV on at 12:05pm the next day. When power returns to the Yodek player at 12:00pm it has 5 minutes to ensure it is fully booted and online before it signals the TV to turn on.
So far, this has worked great. I no longer need to check in and get everything running and/or shut down(or rely on the staff). I can check in on a video camera to ensure everything is up and running just in case.

Here we go. Using your IC login to the website the 007 badges are out!!

Quoted from davegauth:

My insider pro account seems to be having some issues - can not see my machines or locations on the pro tab. Probably temporary, but just a heads up incase others are having issues right now.

Quoted from cooked71:

Love how in one breath Stern are telling us Home Leaderboards wont happen because they want to encourage location pinball
[quoted image]

Quoted from TroyS:

I’m not an operator you are correct.
My son and I play on location twice a week for about $60 each time. So at $480 a month I think one free game each month is not out of the question but for some operators maybe that’s too much. At that percentage rate a match free game would happen more often at the default % rate but some places might even set that to 0. Our local spot does control matches and free games, with achievable levels, I’m sure Stern would give you the IC choice as well.

Quoted from mjannusch:

I'd like it if you could reset your Achievements for a game, so you can go back through earning them all again.

Quoted from cooked71:

Is IC delivering remote game diagnostics for location games yet?

Quoted from OutlawTorn304:

Are the play counts still all screwed up? Mine are showing weird numbers that I don’t think are correct.

Quoted from DNO:

Pro accounts aren’t paid accounts, yet
Maybe you’re paying for insider +?

Quoted from doublestack:

We use a pro account for location and it costs nothing.
His point is that we are not charged for pro accounts right now but most of us foresee it coming, and that the only paid feature of IC is insider plus.

Quoted from doublestack:

Because it’s never worked right since launch. We just got the daily working properly again, the 7 seems correct as well.

Quoted from Gotfrogs:

I just got 100 more insider connected coin door mounts back from powder coating. This is a great mod if you have a Pre Godzilla premium or LE machine that was sold before insider connected was launched.
