Need help identifying machine and what SPC needed

[lowlimitlootlane]

Hello,

I picked up a Buffalo machine that needs some help. I thought I would first start with what model machine do I even have?

Next, I was wondering what SPC card I should get for the model of my machine. Does it only use SPC2.0 vs SPC2.5 or does it matter? The goal is to add a TITO for credits as there is currently no Bill Validator or coin mechanisms.

My last question has to do with bypassing the cherry switch door sensors. Because the previous owner took a hammer to the door and cabinet, I don't think i will be able to get the doors shut, but I would still love to get it to play.

I found by looking at the chip set, that I am using 01.04.11-U70 Series 01 M27v160 MK6USA and 01.04.11-U83 Series 01 M27v160 MK6USA. So it looks like this machine is a MK6.

It looks like this is supported by TITO@HOME as all it requires is an MK6 with an SPC2.0 or 2.5 card.

After reading through the forums, it looks like the answer to my door sensor switches was to swap the Normally Closed poles (NC1 and NC2) with the Normally Open poles (NO1 and NO2). This allowed my doors to appear to be securely shut.  Now I just need to get the SCP and a TITO and I think I am good to go.

Can any one tell me, do I need some chips to do a RAM clear after adding the SPC card or  TITO? So far I have been able to make some adjustments using the Operator menu using the key in regards to turning off the bill validation and have been able to save the settings.

From the pictures, it looks like you will need a repair or replacement for the button panel.   The free play on the TITO needs a ram clear to set the EFT up in the jurisdiction. In addition to the ram clear chips, you need to have a working spin button to navigate the setup  menus.
