HELP A PINBALL BROTHER OUT
« on: June 25, 2011, 06:28:18 PM »
Hi Guys

At the risk of sounding pretty silly I need some help changing 2 settings on my Shadow pinball. When I turned it on the other day it came up with "factory settings restored" and something about book keeping records. Everything working but now its set on 3 balls per game and I prefer 5 and also its not on free play anymore and telling me to insert coins. Go to hell I say I'm not paying for a game when I already paid for the machine (although not a bad laugh for when friends come over).
There are 4 buttons inside the door to adjust the settings the 2 outside buttons are black and the 2 inside are red. I know I have to scroll up and down through them but what am I looking for to change these 2 settings (freeplay and 5 ball) ?

Thanks for any help.
Tim

grab the manual for the machine and it will give you a "family tree view" to the menu settings and how to change the settings. usually by pressing the start button, it will change whatever is in the menu setting between freeplay yes/no etc.

u can download a manual from internet pinball data base site as well. link below. go down the page til u see operator handbook, click on that and its definately in there. u cant go wrong. game settings etc 1.20    ^^^ ^^^ ^^^
