After you have tested the bar, place the ball onto the metal return at the bottom and allow it to roll into the return hole.
The servo should return the ball to the gate.
Select “LIVE VIEW” in the Ice Cold Beer app if you have not already done so.
On the left you will see the position of the stepper motors controlling the bar.
In the middle you will see icons indicating which lights are on.
On the right you will see the output of the seven segment display.
On the bottom right, you will see the start button which will be flashing if the game is on freeplay or coins are inserted.
If the ball is at the gate, the “Detected” hole will show 93. If the game has not started the “Target” hole will be 84, this is hole 1.
You may test first hole sensor by manually moving the gate down, removing the ball, and placing it into the first ball return hole. Placing the ball through the first target hole will display that holes mapped number momentarily before displaying “93” when the ball has returned to the gate.
The following table gives the mapping between play hole and the displayed Target/Detected hole numbers:
Hole 1 | 84 |
---|---|
Hole 2 | 87 |
Hole 3 | 74 |
Hole 4 | 79 |
Hole 5 | 65 |
Hole 6 | 49 |
Hole 7 | 45 |
Hole 8 | 34 |
Hole 9 | 27 |
Hole 10 | 15 |
Ball Gate | 93 |
Ball Return | 98 |
You may test other holes by playing the game with “Live View” open in the ICE COLD BEER app.
