PM0672-03 MEGATOUCH ION MEMORY UPGRADE 1

CAUTION: Before handling the boards, or any components on the board, it is important to

remove any static electricity from your body by touching a grounded piece of metal on the

game. Failure to ground yourself before performing an upgrade may result in damage to

your system and may prevent you from performing the upgrade. Avoid walking around

with the memory in your hand after you have removed it from the box. This could cause

static to build up.

IMPORTANT: You MUST remove the original memory in your game and
replace it with the memory provided in this kit. Simply adding the additional
memory can cause incompatibility issues.

Ion Aurora Installation Instructions

NOTE: This memory is not compatible with

Aurora Widescreen games. It can only be

used for Standard Aurora games. For

memory that is compatible with Aurora

Widescreens, please contact your distribu-

tor.

Turn off and unplug the game.

Unlock the rear door and open if it is

hinged, or remove if it is detachable.

Reach under the center of the top of

the cover to locate the rotary draw

latch (see Figure 1). Turn the wing on

the latch counterclockwise to disen-

gage.

Unscrew the thumbscrew located in

the center of the bottom of the cover

(see Figure 1). Slowly lift the cover and

disconnect the ground wire.

Disconnect the power cord from the

power supply. Remove the wing nut

securing the OSD board. Then, detach

the board from the Velcro on the power

supply bracket and set the board aside.

Remove the electronics tray by un-

screwing the thumbscrew located in

the middle of the rear of the tray and

sliding the tray out (see Figure 1). If

applicable, disconnect the three black

connectors (10-, 11- and 12-pin) con-

necting the electronics tray to the game

in order to slide the tray out further. If

your game does not have these con-

nectors, the harness is long enough to

remove the tray.

Move the hard drive/power supply

tower out of the way of the

motherboard by tilting it on its hinge 90

degrees to the left and supporting (if

necessary).

Follow the instructions for your cabinet type.

512 MB MEMORY DIMM

Use Figures 4-5 to determine what type

of motherboard is in your game. Then

locate the DIMM sockets on the

motherboard.

Take note of which socket the memory

is using and then simultaneously press

down on the two tabs on either side of

the strip to release it from the socket.

10. Remove the DIMM strip from the board

and place it in an anti-static bag for

storage.

11.

Line up the notches on the replace-

ment DIMM strip with the notches on

the DIMM socket (the same socket

where the original DIMM strip was lo-

cated). Making sure that the notches

are lined up will ensure that the strip is

facing the correct way. Then, care-

fully, but firmly and evenly, press down

on the memory to insert it into the

socket. The tabs on either side of the

socket will latch onto the edges of the

DIMM when it is correctly installed.

12. Restore the hard drive/power supply

tower to its upright position, and slide

the electronics tray back into place,

making sure that the connectors on the

back of the hard drive bracket click into

the connectors on the wall of the game,

if applicable. If you disconnected three

connectors from the electronics tray

to the game, reconnect them. Secure

the tray by screwing in the thumb-

screw (see Figure 1).

13. Reconnect the power cord to the

power supply. Reattach the OSD board

to the Velcro on the power supply

bracket and secure it with the wing nut

(see Figure 1).

14. Reconnect the ground wire to the rear

cover and lower the cover into place,

carefully lining up the 2 tabs on the

cover with the 2 mating holes on the

sides of the game. Make sure the plas-

tic lip on the bottom of the rear cover is

behind the metal base.

15. Tighten the screw securing the bottom

of the rear cover. Then, turn the wing

on the draw latch clockwise to engage

the latch (see Figure 1).

16. Close (or reattach) and lock the rear

door.

17. Plug in and turn on the game.

Ion eVo, eVo Wallette and Elite Edge Installation Instructions

Turn off and unplug the game.

Unlock and open the CPU section to

gain access to the motherboard (see

Figure 2).

Use Figures 4-5 to determine what type

of motherboard is in your game. Then,

use those Figures along with Figure 2

to locate the DIMM sockets on the

board.

Take note of which socket the memory

is using and then simultaneously press

down on the two tabs on either side of

the strip to release it from the socket.

Remove the DIMM strip from the board

and place it in an anti-static bag for

storage.

Line up the notches on the replace-

ment DIMM strip with the notches on

the DIMM socket (the same socket

where the original DIMM strip was lo-

cated). Making sure that the notches

are lined up will ensure that the strip is

facing the correct way. Then, care-

fully, but firmly and evenly, press down

on the memory to insert it into the

socket. The tabs on either side of the

socket will latch onto the edges of the

DIMM when it is correctly installed.

Close and lock the CPU section and then

restore power to the game.

Reconnect the hard drive ribbon cable

to IDE 1 on the motherboard, the 4-pin

hard drive power connector to its mat-

ing connector and the connector to the

control board. Replace the cover of

the electronics box and secure it with

the same 2 screws.

Close and lock the bezel and then re-

store power to the game.

Turn off and unplug the game.

Remove the two screws securing the

electronics box cover (see Figure 3)

and gently lift the cover as much as the

cabling will allow. To completely re-

move the cover of the electronics box,

disconnect the hard drive ribbon cable

from the motherboard, disconnect the

4-pin hard drive power connector from

its mating connector inside the elec-

tronics box, and disconnect the con-

nector from the control board.

Use Figures 4-5 to determine what type

of motherboard is in your game. Then,

use those Figures along with Figure 3

to locate the DIMM sockets on the

motherboard.

Take note of which socket the memory

is using and then simultaneously press

down on the two tabs on either side of

the strip to release it from the socket.

Remove the DIMM strip from the board

and place it in an anti-static bag for

storage.
