Tapper | Timber Multi Installation Guide
Steps for a successful install of your online or offline high score save kit -
· Ensure your gameboard is working 100% before installing kit
· Ensure power to game is off before removing your gameboard from cabinet
· Label any connectors that you will be disconnecting. This will make reinstalling easier once kit is on gameboard
· Note which way your connectors/cables are on. (We suggest taking pictures to help you remember!)
· Work in a well-lit area on your workbench
Please note – you will need a z80 to install on this kit. There is an option to purchase in the drop downs of the product page when you order. Or you can use an existing one.
Overview –
OK, let me walk you through the install –
There are a few things that you need to read, so, please do so PRIOR to installation.
ü You will be “folding” the pcb in a different order than the original 3 board stack layout. (To make the kit “fit” on the pcb “better”)
ü You will not have to remove your ribbon cables to do so! (Good news!)
ü You will have to remove the roms on the sound board and super CPU board. They are now on the kit, so, not needed on your pcb. Just read through and look at the pictures.
ü With the flat cable from the kit, it will end up underneath your pcb. This will affect how your pcb will sit back in the 3 grooves when you reinstall your pcb stack after kit installation. The front end will sit fine, please avoid pressure from top mounting bracket.
ü The headers used on the kit will have about 1mm of space from the socket and the black plastic part of the headers on the kit. In other words, you will see about 1mm of gold pins when the daughter cards are installed. That’s ok, they are still making great contact in the sockets.
...enjoy the ride PROGRAMS!
PART 1 –

How do I get to the menu settings?
With the power off on your game. Press and hold P1 while you turn the game on. Release P1 button when the screen tells you to. You are now in the main menu settings. This is a feature built into your kits, so the menu settings are not accessible to your guests or family.
Now, having said that, you need to enable this feature in the menu settings, or disable if you want your kit to give you approximately 5 seconds every time you turn on your game.
