THIS WILL ENSURE THAT THE TARGET ‘REPLAY PERCENT’ WILL BE MET BASED ON STANDARD ADJUSTMENT B1-04A. BY SETTING ADJUSTMENT B1-17 ‘REPLAY INDICATOR’ TO ‘YES’ (FACTORY DEFAULT IS NO) THE GAME WILL INDICATE WHEN A NEW REPLAY LEVEL HAS BEEN CALCULATED.

THIS WILL CLEAR YOUR CURRENT COLLECTION INFORMATION, AND ADJUST THE REPLAY SCORE LEVEL TO MEET YOUR TARGET REPLAY PERCENT. * CLOSE THE COIN DOOR. THIS WILL PUT YOU BACK IN ATTRACT MODE. METHOD TWO: THIS METHOD CAN BE USED AT ANY TIME WITHOUT AFFECTING COLLECTIONS INFORMATION. * OPEN THE COIN DOOR.
