SUBJECT
Raiden DX has proven to be a
excellent update to Raiden II.
The original Raiden four year
later is still earning good money.
NEW FEATURE
Raiden DX has an important fea-
ture not standard on other games.
By installing a button on Push 3
(24, 6) DX has auto fire.
ALL3
abtek recommends using all
Juttons: • Fire left • Bomb cen-
ter and• Auto fire on the right.
NOTE
The fire must be used to enter
high scores. These features will
give you the big collections you
need today.
MONITOR
This vertical game should be in-
stalled with a 25 or 27" monitor.
A few hundred dollars extra will
give you 20 to 30% more income.
Over 3 or 4 years, this is money.

SYMPTOM
When a coin is dropped in the
coin chute (when game is in at-
tract mode) the game is reset and

SOLUTION
In location SC there is an
EAROM for saving data. This
part has failed and data is not
being stored in device.

This is not a RAM device. Its
number is 28C16 (200ns). De-
scription of this device is an Elec-
trically Altered Read Only
Memory.
TEST
To see if this part is no good when
a replacement is not readily avail-
able, power game down, pull out
part, power back up. Note all set-
tings are lost, but game should
run without part.

SUBJECT
Regarding the September
STAR*TECH Journal article by
Joe Young on modifying Rowe
Link on CBA-2 bill acceptors.
NOTE
One must be aware that the CD-
100 & CD-lOOE phono's have this
modification on the computers;
that is the two 100 ohm, 1/4 watt
resistors for Rowel Link A and
Rowel Link B.
DE-MODIFY
If you have done this modifica-
tion on some of your older
phono's, and you put a newer
computer in the box, Rowe rec-
ommends removing the two re-
sistors from the Rowe Link plug.
