Control of reconfigurable gaming machines

摘要

A gaming machine that permits wagering on games includes an input/output module associated with a microprocessing unit and is adapted to download schedules from a server of gaming actions to be taken by the gaming machine. Memory in the gaming machine stores the schedules. The memory also stores a backup schedule of gaming actions to be taken. A microprocessing unit determines whether one of the schedules or the backup schedule will be implemented. The microprocessing unit controls the performance of the gaming actions defined by the schedule being implemented.
