Redundant data handling method for pre-configured dongle utilized in gaming machines, involves allocating identification and index stored information by configuration device provided with data storage unit for storing indices of dongles

摘要

The method involves providing gaming machines with a central controlling unit and a storage unit for storing control software and operation data. Identification information and index stored information are allocated by a configuration device for a basic system comprising dongles. The configuration device is provided with a central data storage unit for storing indices of the dongles for different applications, and maximal dongles are interchanged as per the applications. The lower index is provided based on the basic system.
