Reel shelf and printer bracket needed for S2000

[PapaB]

I just acquired a RWB Deluxe in the same type cabinet...it's an early S2000 machine...Mine also has a 501 board in it...
I am attempting to gather everything to install a printer in it right now...It won't go in the top cabinet because those speakers are in the way...I'm attempting to install it on the right side behind the payline glass...I found the payline glass and printer that I need but still looking for the reel shelf and printer bracket...

I have the complete printer housing and mounting plate. I hope you realize that you still need more parts. Your long glass display will not work with a short glass. You will need a different harness or at least modify your existing harness.

i was going to suggest that he put the printer in the top box on the left, as they are in the casino...can mount the left speaker against the wall or in the middle of the box..the right speaker should already be mounted as designed by igt...only othe parts would be needed are the shorter player tracking mounts

just my 2 cents worth

I have 3 reel shelf with wiring also the short glass and display that goes on the side.

I have the printer (gen2), the proper glass and the display...
After looking at it some more, the door switch, door optics and counters are all in the way and would have to be moved...
Another issue is that I can't find a printer harness or netplex board anywhere in this machine...
I also considered mounting it in the top box but not sure how with those speakers in the way...

I would suggest changing the vision top box for different top box. Then it will all work easier and less cost. Where are you located I am in central California and have a couple tops. I could see how much shipping is if you are interested

[PapaB]

Thanks for the offer Bud...I'm in Michigan and I think your option would be the most expensive

take the left speaker out of its place...use a short glass holder and player tracking plate...install the printer on the top...you will probably need an a wire harness to the power distro board if you cant reach a normal plug
you can attempt mount that left speaker to the wall, and have the horn end towards the speaker hole, or lay it on the floor of the top box...the sound wont be perfect, but its pretty decent.
ive done this to many vision top boxes

Well I have 3 options...

1. Replace the top box - probably not cost effective
2. Modify the top box to accept batwing speakers - very doable with a sabre saw
3. Install it next to the reels - would have to relocate cherry switch and door optics

Not sure which way to go yet, but I'm still at a loss where to connect the printer once I get it installed...there isnt a netplex board or printer connection anywhere that I can find...I'm fairly new at this

[scratchee35]

is there a power distribution board on the back of the top? thats where you will get your power from, but, like i said before, you might need an additional cable to connect to the board
there is also power connector on the right side under the 3rd reel tray..you maybe able to reach that one, depending on how long your printer cord

sorry..i cant turn the pics..anyways, the best i can do for ya to help

Thanks for the info...No, there is not a distribution or netplex board in this machine...nor is there an open plug under the 3rd reel tray...
I can get my hands on a netplex board easy enough but I have no idea how to feed it...

[PapaB]

Solved...I ended up moving the left speaker to the middle and mounted the printer in the top box...had to do some mods to the cabinet and buy a netplex board and harness, but it worked out well...
Thank you to everyone here for the advice!!!
