I finally found the reel optic strips that I needed ... Long story.
I'm trying to set the game config., Jackpot Party.
I did a clear, set the options, game functions as it should

I set the payout as hopper( it has none), which is the only way I found to get the game to load.
Anyway, game loaded, insert coin (I did tell it I had a JCM/WBA during setup), I try to insert a bill and it rejects it

.
I've tried different jumpers on the backplane, tried diff. transports, heads, new and old money, etc.
The game is setup to play, but will not accept bills. I've spent hours changing things around, but no luck.
Any thoughts will help, cause I have none left
