In addition, occurrencesof certain features specific to the game model will be recorded to aid in monitoring overall revenueperformance. This data is stored in U45 and U49 on the MPU module (non-volatile CMOS RAMS) .A storage battery, connected to U45 and U49 only, provides power whenever the game is turned off(see schematic W-1222, sheet 1, left side). The battery is charged through C R29 while the game is on.Since the standby (quiescent) power consumption of U45 and U49 is in microwatts, a fully chargedbattery can maintain storage of bookkeeping and score information for months. If memory retentionis affected, check for battery failure and/or a leaky charging diode.B. MECHANICALMeters located if! the cabinet, near the front door,monitor the following functions:1. Coins ln2.
