AMI Jukebox Mega-Link

®

 Setup for the Megatouch FireFly 

The FireFly must be connected to a wireless broadband Internet connection in order to function.

 

To 

establish this network connection, you must enter and complete the Connection Wizard. 

The FireFly can also be linked to an AMI-powered jukebox, allowing customers to view and play jukebox 
music directly from the FireFly. After initiating the link, the game will download the AMI catalog. This could 
take about 30 minutes. There is a catalog download available on the Web site which will decrease this 
time (http://www.meritgames.com/amidatabase.asp). Download the catalog and load it on your game 
prior to initiating the link. 

Configuring Your Network Connection 

Upon initial boot up of the FireFly, you’ll be taken to the Network screens (after you have set your 
operator PIN). If this is the initial boot up of your FireFly, please skip to step 2 below. If you need to enter 
the Connection Wizard any time after the initial set up of the system, please enter Operator Setup (how to 
do so is described earlier in the manual) and begin below with step 1.

 

IMPORTANT: When your FireFly calls in to the MegaNet server or downloads the AMI music 
catalog, we recommend that it is in the Docking Station.

 

1.  Enter Operator Setup and touch the 

Network 

button and then 

CONNECTION WIZARD

2.  Select your time zone and touch

3.  You’ll then be asked if you would like to register this machine with MegaNet or if it has already been 

registered. Touch the appropriate option for your machine.   

4. Touch 

WIRELESS ETHERNET

 as the connection method you wish to use. 

NOTE: If you’re using wireless security, only 64 or 128-bit WEP encryption is supported.

 

5. After 

touching 

WIRELESS ETHERNET

, you’ll be prompted to choose your connection method.

7.  If you make a successful connection and want to retain these settings, touch 

SAVE SETTINGS AND 

UPDATE

. If the connection fails, touch the 

MORE INFO

 button to determine the cause.   

8.  Your FireFly will then need to call in to the MegaNet Server to complete the connection process. After 

an initial connection to the server has been made, a second connection must be made in order for all 
connection features to be fully operational. This call in can also be performed by entering Operator 
Setup, touching 

Network

, and then touching 

CONNECT TO MEGANET/UPDATE FROM SERVER

When your machine makes the second connection, the time that it calls in will be set as your default
