Current through Register Vol. 50, page 159, June 17, 2024

Section 48:02:08:05 - Software requirements for play transaction records

Each game must maintain electronic accounting meters at all times, regardless of whether the machine is being supplied with power. Each meter must be capable of maintaining totals no less than eight digits in length for the information required in subdivisions 1 to 4, inclusive. The electronic meters must record the following information:

(1) Total number of coins inserted. The meter must count the total number of coins, bills, and ticket vouchers that are inserted by the player or the coin equivalent if a bill acceptor is being used;

(2) Number of credits wagered;

(3) Number of credits won;

(4) Credits paid out by a printed ticket voucher;

(5) Number of times the logic area was accessed;

(6) Number of times the cash door was accessed;

(7) Number of coins or credits wagered in the current game;

(8) Number of coins or credits won in the last complete, valid game, commonly referred to as the win meter; and

(9) Number of cumulative credits representing money inserted by a player and credits for games won but not collected, commonly referred to as the credit meter.

No game may have a mechanism by which an error will cause the electronic accounting meters to automatically clear. Clearing of the electronic accounting meters may only be completed after notification and approval by the lottery. Upon notification to the lottery, all meter readings must be recorded both before and after the electronic accounting meter is cleared by a manufacturer or by a Type II technician replacing the main logic board with a board that has been previously cleared by a manufacturer.
