FORCE 2004 Point 5/Sapphire 2 Update Disc
You may need to take additional steps to enable new Prize Zone™ (MegaNet® Users only) and Kids’
Club games if they are not enabled after installing the update disc. If you are installing a multiple-disc
upgrade, the additional steps will not be necessary. Follow the instructions below to enable the games.
Prize Zone (MegaNet® Users only)
: If Prize Zone™ was not enabled on your game before you
installed the update disc, you will need to manually enable the new Prize Zone™ games. To enable the
games:
1. Press the SETUP button.
2. Touch the “MegaNet®” icon, then the “Options” icon on the Games Menu.
3. If there is not a check in the box next to “Prize Zone™”, touch the box so that a check appears,
then touch the “I ACCEPT” button if you accept the terms on the screen. You will be returned to
the MegaNet® Menu.
4. To enable the new games, touch the “Prize Zone™” button and select “Enable All Games”, or
select the individual disabled games you want to enable from the game list at the bottom of the
screen (enabled games are red, disabled games are white) and enter them into the menu.
5. Touch the “X” in the upper right hand side of the screen and touch “YES” to confirm you want to
exit the setup screens.
6. Touch the “MegaNet®” icon on the Player Menu and log into Prize Zone to make sure the new
games (Word Dojo™, Magic Charms™, Zip 21®, Power Solitaire®, Castle Bandits™) are
appearing in the category.
Kids’ Club
: To enable the new games in the Kids’ Club menu after installing the update disc, you will
need to perform a two-button clear after installation. Follow the instructions below to enable the new
Kids’ Club games.
NOTE
: Performing a two-button clear will delete current books, cash settlement, coin-in, high scores
and resets the software options. It will reset the game to the factory defaults. If you want to retain any
pertinent information (e.g.: Books Screen information), you will need to document that information before
performing the upgrade. Also, make
sure to perform your collection prior to doing the two-button clear.
1. Turn off the game.
2. Press and hold the SETUP and CALIBRATE buttons while turning the game back on.
3. After about 20 seconds, a message should appear on the screen reading, “Merit Boot
Diagnostics, Two Button Clear Performed”. Upon seeing this message, release the buttons.
4. The game will reboot.
5. Once the game has finished rebooting, it will prompt you to calibrate the screen. Follow all
instructions on the screen.
6. Press the SETUP button.
7. Touch the “Games” icon on the Main Menu Screen, then the “Options” icon on the Games Menu.
8. Page through the options until you see “Enable Kids’ Club category”. If there is not a check in the
box next to this option, touch the box so that a check appears.
9. Touch the “X” in the upper right hand side of the screen, then touch “YES” to confirm you want to
exit the setup screens.
10. Touch the “Kids’ Club” icon on the Player Menu to make sure the new games (Kids' Kolortime™,
Megatouch Switcheroo™, Kids' Photo Hunt®) are appearing in the category.
