was a technical presentation.
The TechFest is geared for working slot techs and technical managers who are looking for a way to make a dramatic improvement in their understanding of video slot monitors, touchscreens, bill validators, hoppers and more with no-nonsense technical presentations from: 3M Touch Systems (MicroTouch)
David Oldham of Advanced Electronic Systems, Inc. addressed the group as the first guest presenter at TechFest 12, held at Robinson Rancheria Casino in Nice, California. David presented a technical look at MEI's Cashflow SC66 bill validator and the FutureLogic printer.
Wells-Gardner's Chuck Rabiola presented troubleshooting techniques for the W-G monitors. He also produced a really excellent troubleshooting guide for their monitors, including the U3000 and U3100 models. Each person in the class also received a CD-ROM full of schematic diagrams and troubleshooting guides. Wells-Gardner also gave away two of their really nifty pettern generators for testing monitors. Pictured below are Anthony Long of Apache Gold Casino Resort and Ray Stogher of Konocti Vista Casino.
