Fig. 2 is the block diagram that the inside for marble game machine control part is described forms.Control part 200 consists of a plurality of control parts.In illustrated example, there is master control part 201, display control unit 202 and reward ball control part 203.Master control part 201 is controlled the basic game action of Pinball machine.Display control unit 202 is controlled the display action during game.Reward ball control part 203 is controlled the reward nodule number of paying.
Master control part 201 comprises: CPU211, and the routine data that it is stored based on ROM212, implements the basic handling of following game content to implement; RAM213, it has the function as datamation region when CPU211 calculation process; Interface (I/F) 214, when it receives various data from each test section 221~224, sends various data to display control unit 202 and reward ball control part 203.Master control part 201 for example realizes its function by so-called main control substrate.
At the input of this master control part 201, be intended to detect start the starting that enters to appreciate ball that enters reward into reward mouth 105 enter a reward mouthful test section 221, be intended to detect the game ball by entering reward door 106 door test section 222, be intended to detect common enter reward mouthfuls 107 enter reward game ball common enter a reward mouthful test section 223, be intended to detect the big prizes mouth test section 224 that enters to appreciate ball that enters reward in big prizes mouth 109 and connect via interface 214.These test sections can be used approach switch to form.
At the output of this master control part 201, connecting big prizes mouth switch portion 231, control the switch of this big prizes mouth switch portion 231.The function of big prizes mouth switch portion 231 is by open big prizes mouth 109 certain hour, the formations such as use solenoid when winning the first prize in lottery.This random number (winning the first prize in lottery judgement random number) winning the first prize in lottery based on generating is compiled into program in advance, so that it for example, produces with specific probability (300/first-class).
Display control unit 202 receives from master control part 201 control signal that comprises various control instructions, based on this instruction, implements to be stored in the routine data in ROM242, implements the demonstration control in game.This display control unit 202 comprises: CPU241, and it implements Graphics Processing; RAM243, datamation district function when it has CPU241 enforcement calculation process; VRAM244, it writes the shown pictorial data of pattern displaying portion 104; And interface (I/F) 245, its reception sends various data from the various data of master control part 201 and to indicator lamp control part 251 and sound equipment control part 252.Display control unit 202 is for example realized its function by so-called display base plate.And at the output of display control unit 202, above-mentioned pattern displaying portion (LCD) 104, indicator lamp control part 251 and sound equipment control part 252 are connected by I/F245.
Reward ball control part 203 receives from master control part 201 control signal that comprises various control instructions, based on this instruction, implements to be stored in the routine data in ROM282, implements the reward ball control in game.This reward ball control part 203 comprises: CPU281, and it implements reward ball control processing; RAM283, datamation district function when it has CPU281 enforcement calculation process; And interface (I/F) 284, it receives from the various data of master control part 201 and to emission part 251 and sends and receive various data.Reward ball control part 203 is for example realized its function by so-called reward ball substrate.
The control of reward nodule number when reward ball control part 203 is implemented to pay into reward for the connected portion that pays 291.And, detect the operation of launching game ball for emission part 292, control the transmitting of game ball.Paying portion 291 forms by being intended to motor of paying the game ball of specific quantity from game ball storing section etc.Reward ball control part 203 is paid portion 291 and is implemented to control for this, with pay with respectively enter reward mouthful (start into reward mouth 105, common enter reward mouthfuls 107, big prizes mouth 109) enter the corresponding reward nodule number of the game ball of reward.
Emission part 292 is for launching the game ball of game use, and it consists of the sensor of game operation and the solenoid etc. of transmitting game ball that detect player.When reward ball control part 203 detects after game operation by the sensor of emission part 292, just corresponding with detected game operation, drive solenoid etc., launch off and on game ball, game ball is sent to the game area 103 of gameboard 101.
Master control part 201, display control unit 202 and the reward ball control part 203 of above-mentioned formation is separately positioned on different printed base plate (main control substrate, display base plate and reward ball substrate).Be not limited only to this, for example, appreciate ball control part 203 and also can be arranged on the printed base plate identical with master control part 201.
(the functional formation of master control part 201 and peripheral substrate)
Fig. 3 is the block diagram of the functional formation for master control part and peripheral substrate (display control unit, reward ball control part) are described.In Fig. 3, master control part 201 consists of control instruction storage part 311, appendix 312, recording unit 313, sending part 314.And the peripheral substrates such as display control unit 202 and reward ball control part 203 are by acceptance division 321, authentication department 322 and report signal efferent 323 and form.
The control instruction storage part 311 of master control part 201 is stored the control instruction data that send to peripheral substrate.The specific program Code Selection that master control part 201 for example records according to recording unit 313 is sent to the control instruction of peripheral substrate from control command storage unit 311, to peripheral substrate sending controling instruction.In addition, control instruction storage part 311 and recording unit 313 are not to arrange respectively, can be integrated yet.For example also can be at recording unit 313 control store instruction data and program codes.
When the control instruction that is sent to peripheral substrate is specific control instruction, appendix 312 is attached to the verify data that is intended to authenticate master control part 201 in control instruction, generates control signal (with reference to Figure 10).In the control instruction that is sent to peripheral substrate, be for example while winning the first prize in lottery instruction, appendix 312 is attached to verify data in control instruction (control instruction data), generates control signal.For example appendix 312 is additional adopts the program code that recording unit 313 records to generate verify data.And appendix 312, when adopting program code, also can be added the verify data that adopts the control instruction (control instruction data) this time sending to generate.
And, appendix 312 can be also while starting the instruction of the processing under the state that wins the first prize in lottery in the control instruction that is sent to peripheral substrate, when winning the first prize in lottery instruction that sign on or end win the first prize in lottery the processing under state and winning the first prize in lottery END instruction, in control instruction, additional authentication data generates control signal.Now, appendix 312 only sends while winning the first prize in lottery sign on (or winning the first prize in lottery END instruction) additional authentication data in control instruction in master control part 201 to peripheral substrate.Winning the first prize in lottery sign on or winning the first prize in lottery END instruction is start or finish to win the first prize in lottery the instruction of state, lower than the transmission frequency of other instructions.Therefore, can reduce the possibility of extracting verify data from control signal.And, even if extracted verify data from control signal, because obtainable sampling number is few, so can reduce the resolved possibility of verify data.
And, appendix 312 also can control instruction be form vertical direct at order, winning the first prize in lottery of sending while selecting is vertical to be directed at while making winning the first prize in lottery, in control instruction, additional authentication data generates control signal.Vertical, direct in order, except winning the first prize in lottery to stand, direct at order, the not neutrality sending while winning the first prize in lottery in addition in selecting directs at order.Now, appendix 312 only sends and wins the first prize in lottery the vertical additional authentication data in control signal that directs at while making to peripheral substrate in master control part 201.Win the first prize in lottery vertical straight higher than the occurrence frequency winning the first prize in lottery.And, win the first prize in lottery the vertical straight generation moment and there is randomness.Therefore, by win the first prize in lottery vertical directing at while making in transmission, implement authentication processing, disperseed the authentication processing enforcing location on time shaft.And, by the authentication processing enforcing location on jitter time axle like this, can improve the reliability of authentication processing.This be because, even when there is the not smooth and verify data of verify data communication in during certain and being tampered, because be intermittently to implement randomly authentication processing, so improved the possibility of avoid communicating by letter not smooth and the impact that is tampered.
And appendix 312 can be also to make peripheral substrate implement switching on power during instruction of the processing of marble game machine while switching on power in control instruction, in control instruction, additional authentication data generates control signal.In addition, when the instruction that switches on power is not limited only to marble game machine and switches on power, also when resetting, marble game machine action sends during the enforcement marble game machine initialization process such as (while pressing reset key).
Now, appendix 312 only sends while switching on power instruction additional authentication data in control signal in master control part 201 to peripheral substrate.The instruction that switches on power sends when implementing the marble game machine initialization process such as connection Ball paddle device electromechanical source and reset.Initialization process belongs to from the main processing of marble game machine about the different processing classification of the processing of game (implementing game).If enroll authentication processing during initialization process, with enrolling authentication processing and compare during the processing of game, can reduce the increase ratio of programming and test step (man-hour).That is,, by enroll authentication processing during initialization process, can obtain the reduction of development cost and the advantage of quality management aspect.
And, if enroll authentication processing during initialization process, due to be marble game machine start after implement immediately authentication processing, so, even while suffering from illegal act after the close up shop and stop business of hoodle shop, also can before client enters shop, detect illegal act.Therefore can reduce the possibility that generation is damaged by illegal act.
And, the control instruction that is sent to peripheral substrate be make marble game machine implement the demonstration instruction or stop of receiving guests that demonstration under non-game state shows (demonstration of receiving guests) receive guests demonstration stop receiving guests demonstration instruction time, also can be in control instruction additional authentication data generation control signal.
Now, appendix 312 only sends and receives guests demonstration instruction or stop receiving guests demonstration during instruction, additional authentication data in control signal to peripheral substrate in master control part 201.The demonstration instruction or stop of the receiving guests demonstration instruction of receiving guests does not implement the main processing of marble game machine at marble game machine in non-game state---during the processing of relevant game (implementing to play), send.Therefore the processing, increasing because of authentication processing is loaded not to exerting an influence about the processing of game.Therefore, even when main control substrate and peripheral substrate not yet possess higher disposal ability, or about the larger marble game machine of processing load of the processing of game, also can append authentication processing function.
And, appendix 312 also can the control instruction that is sent to peripheral substrate be winning the first prize in lottery select not in time send not in during instruction, additional authentication data generation control signal in control instruction.For example, vertical, direct in order, have win the first prize in lottery winning the first prize in lottery of sending while prizing during selecting vertical direct at order and winning the first prize in lottery select during not in time transmission not neutrality direct at order.Appendix 312 only send as vertical direct in order not in the not neutrality of one of instruction direct at while making, additional authentication data in control instruction, and transmitting control signal.Select result be not in time the instruction that sends be not limited only to not neutrality and direct at order.
Appendix 312 only in master control part 201 sends not to peripheral substrate during instruction, additional authentication data in control signal.Select result when selecting, the occurrence frequency of " not " is the highest.Therefore, if in sending not during instruction in director data additional authentication data, can be by from selecting until the flow process of authentication processing is considered as the fundamental form of marble game machine processing.Win the first prize in lottery vertical when straight and the processing in while winning the first prize in lottery different because of the type difference display packing of marble game machine, belong to special processing, but type difference is little for the processing time.Therefore,, as the marble game machine in embodiment, if enroll authentication processing in the processing in not time, authentication processing flow process needn't increase large change, marble game machine body can be used in to other types once again.
Sending part 314 sends the control signal that comprises control instruction to peripheral substrate.When the instruction of this transmission is specific instruction, for example when winning the first prize in lottery instruction, sending part 314 sends the control signal that includes the control instruction of having added verify data to peripheral substrate.And in the case, when the instruction of this transmission is not while winning the first prize in lottery instruction, sending part 314 sends and includes the not control signal of the control instruction of additional authentication data to peripheral substrate.
The acceptance division 321 of peripheral substrate receives the control signal that comprises control instruction sending by master control part 201.Authentication department 322 adopts the control signal that comprises control instruction that acceptance division 321 receives to implement authentication to master control part 201.Authentication department 322 for example judges in control instruction whether be attached with verify data, while being attached with verify data in control instruction, adopts verify data to implement authentication to master control part 201.For example, and authentication department 322 judges whether control instruction is specific instruction, whether is to win the first prize in lottery instruction, is while winning the first prize in lottery instruction in control instruction, also can adopt verify data to implement authentication to master control part 201.
When above-mentioned main control substrate not being implemented to authentication by authenticate device, report 323 outputs of signal efferent and report signal.When peripheral substrate is display control unit 202, report signal efferent 323 for example to pattern displaying portion 104, indicator lamp control part 251 and sound equipment control part 252(with reference to Fig. 2) etc. output.And, report signal efferent 323 and also can report signal to outputs such as the master controllers of management marble game machine.
Based on by reporting the signal of reporting that signal efferent 323 exports, pattern displaying portion 104, indicator lamp control part 251 and sound equipment control part 252 implement to report the interior demonstration that may have illegal act of master control part 201.This display case is as occurred common absent variable character in pattern displaying portion 104, or there is with common diverse ways the character conventionally occurring.And, also can change brightness, the color of pattern displaying portion 104, or for indicator lamp control part 251, implement specific demonstration and control.In any case, as long as practitioner from this marble game machine through out-of-date, can realize its state.And this demonstration can be also the demonstration that client is not aware of its state, or client can aware the demonstration of its state easily.If client perceives the demonstration obtaining easily, just can effectively suppress illegal act.
And, report in signal and also can comprise the information about marble game machine game state such as " winning the first prize in lottery ", " changing probability ".Information based on these about game state, also can judge whether to have implemented illegal act by the master controller etc. of management marble game machine.For example, " win the first prize in lottery " and " changing probability " is also normal even if concentrate into reward sometimes.So, can judge whether winning the first prize in lottery and changing probability is likely the illegal act under the condition different from other states.Now, practitioner is based on reporting signal and having malfeasant possibility about the both information of game state judges.
(elemental motion of marble game machine)
The following describes one of the elemental motion of the marble game machine of above-mentioned formation example.Master control part 201 exports as control instruction the reward situation that enters that respectively enters reward mouthful corresponding game ball to reward ball control part 203.Reward ball control part 203 is paid the reward nodule number corresponding with entering reward situation according to the control instruction of exporting from master control part 201.
And whenever game ball starts into reward mouth 105 to enter to appreciate, master control part 201 exports corresponding control instruction to display control unit 202, display control unit 202 is repeatedly implemented variation demonstration and is stopped the pattern of pattern displaying portion 104.When definite winning the first prize in lottery, to display control unit 202, export corresponding control instruction, display control unit 202 converges neat and stops under specific pattern.Now, implement the control of open big prizes mouth 109 simultaneously.Display control unit 202 standing straight or standing while directly predicting during winning the first prize in lottery and before winning the first prize in lottery, except changing display pattern, also implements various demonstrations for pattern displaying portion 104.In addition, for various stage properties, implement specific driving, or the demonstrations such as the show state of indicator lamp 261 are changed in enforcement.
And, when winning the first prize in lottery, the open plural number of big prizes mouth 109.Opening is for 1 time 1 bout, repeats embodiment as 15 bouts.During 1 bout, when for example having 10 game ball to enter to appreciate, or be special time (for example 30 seconds).Now, reward ball control part 203 enters reward for 1 game ball of big prizes mouth 109, for example, pay 15 reward nodule numbers.Win the first prize in lottery after end, remove this and win the first prize in lottery state, recover common game state.
(processing of each control part is described in detail in detail)
Then, describe the various processing that each control part is implemented in detail.First explanation control processing for display control unit 202 by master control part 201.Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 are the flow charts of the step for the control processing of display control unit being implemented by master control part is described.In addition, in the explanation of Fig. 4 to Fig. 9, so-called " transmission instruction " means " control signal that transmission comprises the data (control instruction data) that represent this instruction ", do not consider having or not of for example verify data and ancillary data (with reference to Figure 10).
In the flow chart of Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, first, before marble game machine switches on power, master control part 201 is in holding state (circulation of step S401:No).After marble game machine switches on power (step S401:Yes), master control part 201 sends for peripheral substrates such as display control unit 202 and reward ball control parts 203 instruction (step S402) that switches on power.Send out and switch on power after instruction, display control unit 202 sends respectively control instruction demonstration for while switching on power (control instruction of specifically, send that indicator lamp lights, sound equipment output and demonstration picture disply etc. being indicated) accordingly for indicator lamp control part 251, sound equipment control part 252 and pattern displaying portion 104.
Then not selecting into reward time logarithmic data that, master control part 201 records with reference to ROM212 or RAM213 judges whether do not select into reward number of times is 0 time (step S403).What is called is not selected into reward number of times, from what start that reward mouth detects, enters to appreciate and nodule number (entering to appreciate number of times), deducts the corresponding number of implementing after number of times (having selected number of times) of selecting of reward ball.Not selecting into reward number of times is 0 o'clock (step S403:Yes), and master control part 201 instrumentations start demonstration institute's elapsed time (step S404) afterwards.
If, through special time (step S405:Yes), master control part 201 sends to display control unit 202 the demonstration instruction (step S406) of receiving guests, and moves to step S407 after demonstration starts.If do not pass through special time (step S405:No) after demonstration starts, directly move to step S407.If send at step S406 the instruction of receiving guests, display control unit 202 sends the control signal of the demonstration use of receiving guests to indicator lamp control part 251, sound equipment control part 252 and pattern displaying portion 104.And at step S403, not selecting into reward number of times is not 0 o'clock (step S403:No), moves to step S410.
Then, whether master control part 201 judgement is started to detect to start into reward mouth test section 221 and is entered to appreciate ball (step S407) into reward mouth.If detect, start into reward mouth enter to appreciate ball (step S407:Yes), master control part 201 certainly demonstration start the time zero clearing (step S408) of rear institute instrumentation, on reward number of times, add 1(step S409 not selecting).Then, master control part 201 obtains to win the first prize in lottery to be judged with random number (step S410), never selects and on reward number of times, subtracts 1(step S411), move to the step S412 of Fig. 5.
Then, master control part 201 judge winning the first prize in lottery of obtaining at step S410 judge with random number be whether predetermine win the first prize in lottery random number (step S412).Judge with random number (step S412:Yes) when winning the first prize in lottery random number winning the first prize in lottery, master control part 201 sends and wins the first prize in lottery vertical directing at and make (pattern variation instruction) (step S413) to display control unit 202.Before the process pattern variation time, master control part 201 is in holding state (circulation of step S414:No), if passed through pattern variation time (step S414:Yes), display control unit 202 sends pattern halt instruction (step S415).
Then, master control part 201 sends and wins the first prize in lottery sign on (step S416) to display control unit 202, then send successively with win the first prize in lottery during the corresponding instruction (winning the first prize in lottery instruction) (step S417) of each bout.And after the winning the first prize in lottery instruction and send and finish of all bouts, master control part 201 sends and wins the first prize in lottery END instruction (step S418), moves to step S422.
On the other hand, at step S412, when win the first prize in lottery judge with random number be not (step S412:No) while winning the first prize in lottery random number, master control part 201 sends not neutrality to display control unit 202 and directs at and make (pattern variation instruction) (step S419).Before the process pattern variation time, master control part 201 is in holding state (circulation of step S420:No), if passed through pattern variation time (step S420:Yes), display control unit 202 sends pattern halt instruction (step S421).
Master control part 201 is (step S422:No) before marble game machine switches on power, and returns to the step S403 of Fig. 4, repeats later processing.And if marble game machine switches on power (step S422:Yes), master control part 201 sends end process instruction (step S423), the processing of process ends figure to display control unit 202.
Fig. 6 is the time diagram of the delivery time for the instruction (winning the first prize in lottery vertical directing at makes, wins the first prize in lottery sign on and win the first prize in lottery instruction) about winning the first prize in lottery is described.Win the first prize in lottery vertical direct at order than actual win the first prize in lottery more frequent, and transmission randomly.And, win the first prize in lottery sign on when reality wins the first prize in lottery, only send 1 time moving to while winning the first prize in lottery state.And, win the first prize in lottery instruction and at each bout, continue to send after moving to the state of winning the first prize in lottery.
The processing of display control unit 202 then, is described.Below illustrate pattern when variation receive win the first prize in lottery vertical direct at make (with reference to the step S413 of Fig. 5) or not neutrality direct at while making (with reference to the step S419 of Fig. 5) and the processing of the display control unit 202 while winning the first prize in lottery.
Fig. 7 is the flow chart of the step for the pattern variation processing of implementing by display control unit is described.In the flow chart of Fig. 7, first, receive pattern variation instruction and win the first prize in lottery vertical direct at make (with reference to the step S413 of Fig. 4) or not neutrality direct at and make (with reference to the step S419 of Fig. 4) before, display control unit 202 is in holding state (circulation of step S701:No).If receive pattern variation instruction (step S701:Yes), display control unit 202 obtains variation demonstration selection random number (step S702), selects to change the kind (step S703) of demonstration based on the random number obtaining.Then, display control unit 202 shows and sends demonstration sign on (step S704) according to variation respectively for indicator lamp control part 251 and sound equipment control part 252.
Display control unit 202 judges whether through the displaying time (step S705) of variation demonstration, whether from master control part 201, has received pattern halt instruction (with reference to step S415, the S421 of Fig. 5) (step S706).If passed through displaying time (step S705:Yes), or received pattern halt instruction (step S706:Yes), display control unit 202 sends display stop instruction (step S707) for indicator lamp control part 251 and sound equipment control part 252.And, when not passing through displaying time (step S705:No) and not receiving pattern halt instruction (step S706:No), return to step S705, repeat later processing.
Then, the processing of display control unit 202 when winning the first prize in lottery is described.Fig. 8 is the flow chart of the step of the processing when winning the first prize in lottery of implementing by display control unit is described.In the flow chart of Fig. 8, first, win the first prize in lottery sign on (with reference to the step S416 of Fig. 5) before receiving from master control part 201, display control unit 202 is in holding state (circulation of step S801:No).If receive, win the first prize in lottery sign on (step S801:Yes), display control unit 202 wins the first prize in lottery beginning processing instruction (step S802) for indicator lamp control part 251 and 252 transmissions of sound equipment control part.
Then, from master control part 201, receive each bout win the first prize in lottery instruction before (with reference to the step S417 of Fig. 5), display control unit 202 is in holding state (circulation of step S803:No).If receive, win the first prize in lottery instruction (step S803:Yes), display control unit 202 for indicator lamp control part 251 and sound equipment control part 252 send and receives to each bout win the first prize in lottery the processing instruction (step S804) of the corresponding each bout of instruction.
Then, from master control part 201, receive win the first prize in lottery END instruction before (with reference to the step S418 of Fig. 5), display control unit 202 is in holding state (circulation of step S805:No).If receive, win the first prize in lottery END instruction (step S805:Yes), display control unit 202 wins the first prize in lottery end process instruction (step S806), the processing of process ends figure for indicator lamp control part 251 and 252 transmissions of sound equipment control part.
Then, the indicator lamp control processing of implementing by indicator lamp control part 251 is described.At this, the processing of when display control unit 202 receives pattern variation instruction (during pattern variation) is described.Fig. 9 is the flow chart of the step of the indicator lamp control processing while implementing pattern variation by indicator lamp control part.In the flow chart of Fig. 9, first, receive demonstration sign on from display control unit 202 before, indicator lamp control part 251 is in holding state (circulation of step S901:No).
If receive and show sign on (step S901:Yes) from display control unit 202, indicator lamp control part 251 reads as the data (step S902) that each instruction is prepared, implement the option program (step S903) of each instruction, create indicator lamp data (step S904).Then, indicator lamp control part 251 is for indicator lamp 261 output indicator data (step S905).The indicator lamp data that indicator lamp 261 is exported based on self-indication lamp control part 251 light or extinguish.
Before receiving display stop instruction from display control unit 202 (step S906:No), indicator lamp control part 251 returns to step S905, continues output indicator data.If receive display stop instruction (step S906:Yes), indicator lamp control part 251 stops the output (step S907) of indicator lamp data, the processing of process ends figure.
In addition, Fig. 9 has recorded the processing of indicator lamp control part 251, but the sound equipment control of implementing by sound equipment control part 252 is also substantially the same with the processing of Fig. 9.The sound equipment control of implementing by sound equipment control part 252 is processed and in the processing of Fig. 9, step S904, S905, S907 " indicator lamp data " is changed and read as " sound data ".
Like this, display control unit 202 and following the two is collectively referred to as " peripheral substrate " of reward ball control part 203() control instruction just exported based on master control part 201 implements various processing.On the other hand, for example between master control part 201 and peripheral substrate, be connected illegal control substrate (with reference to Figure 15),, when the output source of control instruction is not regular master control part 201, peripheral substrate will be implemented illegal according to the illegal control instruction of the control substrate output from illegal.
For preventing the appearance of this situation, in the marble game machine of present embodiment, when the control instruction of exporting from master control part 201 is specific instruction, between master control part 201 and peripheral substrate, implement authentication processing.So-called specific instruction, specifically, win the first prize in lottery instruction, win the first prize in lottery sign on, win the first prize in lottery END instruction, win the first prize in lottery vertically direct at the instruction that make, switches on power, the demonstration instruction of receiving guests, the demonstration instruction that stops receiving guests, not middle instruction etc.By this authentication processing, can detect master control part 201 and be replaced by illegal control substrate, or the illegal acts such as illegal control substrate are installed between master control part 201 and peripheral substrate, prevent the illegal act to marble game machine.
(data format of control signal)
Then, illustrate that master control part 201 exports the data format of the control signal of peripheral substrate to.Figure 10 be model utility represent the key diagram of the data format of the control signal of master control part output.As shown in figure 10, in the common control signal 1010 of exporting in master control part 201, include control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002.Control instruction data 1001 are for example the vertical intrinsic data of each instruction such as making, win the first prize in lottery sign on, each bout instruction that direct at.And ancillary data 1002 is the data that are attached in control instruction data 1001, the necessary data of processing based on control instruction data 1001 such as the game nodule number that for example enters to appreciate.
On the other hand, during instruction that the control instruction data 1001 in control signal are particular types, master control part 201 sends the control signal 1020 with verify data to peripheral substrate, and it,, outside control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002, also comprises verify data 1003.Specifically, master control part 201 when winning the first prize in lottery instruction, sends the control signal that comprises verify data 1003 in control instruction data 1001 to peripheral substrate.
Like this, owing to including verify data 1003 in control signal, while sending verify data with monomer, compare, can suppress the increase of communication load between master control part 201 and peripheral substrate.And, owing to comprising verify data 1003 in control signal, compare when sending with verify data 1003 monomers, can reduce from communication data the possibility of extracting, resolving verify data.And, due to authentication processing be only for example, to implement when (winning the first prize in lottery instruction) sending specific instruction, so can suppress the ratio that the processing load between main control substrate and peripheral substrate increases because of authentication processing.
It is to be exported by regular master control part 201 that verify data 1003 is intended to by peripheral substrate authentication control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002.The value that verify data 1003 for example generates as basis for the routine data that ROM212 was recorded take master control part 201.Whole or a part of enforcement hash function computing of the routine data that more particularly, verify data 1003 for example records for ROM212, even-odd check, CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check:CRC), verification and etc. the value of the error detection computing gained value after implementing to encrypt with specific cipher mode.
Like this, verify data 1003 adopts the routine data that the ROM212 of master control part 201 records to generate.Therefore, peripheral substrate can, by adopting verify data 1003 to implement authentication, judge whether the output source of control signal is regular master control part 201.And, can detect the illegal rewriting of the program code recording for the ROM212 of master control part 201 and the illegal replacing for the ROM212 of master control part 201.
In addition, master control part 201 generates the verify data 1003 different from each control signal.Specifically, for example, change into the program code scope in the ROM212 that generates verify data 1003 and adopt, or change the error detection computing that is intended to generate verify data 1003.And the data of using while generating verify data 1003 are not limited only to program code, can be also the arbitrary datas that ROM212 records.
And, in verify data 1003, also can comprise together send with verify data 1003 with control instruction data 1001 and the relevant data of ancillary data 1002.The so-called data relevant with control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002, refer to control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002 itself, and adopt above-mentioned error detection mode for control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002, to implement the value of gained after computing.In general, illegal control substrate is intended to make peripheral substrate implement illegal action by sending the control instruction different from regular master control part 201.If adopt the control instruction data 1001 and the ancillary data 1002 that together send with verify data 1003 to generate verify data 1003, even when verify data is utilized once again by illegal control substrate, verify data also can not be mated with control data, can find illegal act.
While comprising the data relevant with control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002 in verify data 1003, master control part 201 is encrypted the data relevant with control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002 and program code authentication value in the lump, generates verify data 1003.
In addition, the aligning method of control instruction data 1001, ancillary data 1002, verify data 1003 is not limited only to the order shown in Figure 10, for example also verify data 1003 can be placed on to control signal ahead, or verify data 1003 is inserted between control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002.Can also be outside control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002 authentication output data 1003 in addition.For example, also can be after having sent and having comprised the control signal that wins the first prize in lottery instruction, additional authentication data 1003 when transmitting control signal for the 3rd time.
(sending the processing of reception control signal)
The processing of the transmission reception control signal of implementing between master control part 201 and peripheral substrate then, is described.The processing of the transmission reception control signal between master control part 201 and display control unit 202 is below described, but the processing of the transmission reception control signal between master control part 201 and reward ball control part 203 is also implemented with same step.
Figure 11~Figure 13 is that the control instruction for additional authentication data is described is the flow chart of the step of the control signal transmission processing implemented by master control part 201 while winning the first prize in lottery.In the flow chart of Figure 11, master control part 201 first before changing the delivery time of control instruction in holding state (circulation of step S1101:No).Changing (step S1101:Yes) after the delivery time of control instruction into, whether the control instruction that master control part 201 judgements this time send is to win the first prize in lottery instruction (step S1102).
As the control instruction of this transmission when winning the first prize in lottery instruction (step S1102:Yes), master control part 201 setup control director data 1001(win the first prize in lottery director data) and ancillary data 1002(step S1103).Master control part 201 also generates verify data 1003(step S1104).Now, also can exchonge step S1103 and the order of step S1104.Then, master control part 201 is sent to display control unit 202(step S1105 by the control signal consisting of control instruction data 1001, ancillary data 1002, verify data 1003 (with the control signal of verify data) generating at step S1103, S1104), the processing of process ends figure.
On the other hand, at step S1102, when the control instruction of this transmission is the instruction winning the first prize in lottery beyond instruction (step S1102:No), master control part 201 setup control director data 1001(win the first prize in lottery the instruction beyond instruction) and ancillary data 1002(step S1106).Then, the control signal consisting of control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002 (common control signal) of setting at step S1106 is sent to display control unit 202(step S1107), the processing of process ends figure.
Then, the control signal reception & disposal of implementing by display control unit 202 is described.Figure 12 is the flow chart of the step for the control signal reception & disposal of implementing by display control unit 202 is described.In the flow process of Figure 12, first, before receiving control signal from master control part 201, display control unit 202 is in holding state (circulation of step S1201:No).If receive control signal (step S1201:Yes) from master control part 201, display control unit 202 judges in the control signal receiving, whether to comprise verify data 1003(step S1202).Judge in control signal whether comprise verify data 1003, for example, be whether the data volume by judging control signal is more than common control signal, whether be placed with in control signal and represent that the flag that comprises verify data 1003 implements.
While comprising verify data 1003 in control signal (step S1202:Yes), display control unit 202 extracts verify data 1003 from control signal, the expected value (step S1203) of access authentication data 1003, judges the verify data 1003 and expected value whether consistent (step S1204) that in control signal, comprise.Now, display control unit 202 also can not judge that whether verify data 1003 is consistent with expected value, and judges that whether verify data 1003 and expected value are in specific relation.So-called specific relation, the value of for example verify data 1003 being implemented to specific computing gained and the relation such as expected value is consistent.
And, display control unit 202 for the expected value checked for example in advance (during manufacture etc.) be recorded in display control unit 202.And, also display control unit 202 can be sent to display control unit 202 for the expected value of checking from other formation portions.So-called other formation portions, such as reward ball control part 203 and for generating the dedicated processes portion (being referred to as below " expected value operational part ") etc. of verify data expected value.Data processing division 210 and expected value operational part also can send pre-recorded expected value as for display control unit 202, also can when each collation process, generate expected value.And, also can connect with I/F(without diagram via outside) and from external equipment, to display control unit 202 and expected value operational part, send the necessary coefficient of computing expected value.Like this, the expected value that display control unit 202 needn't pre-recorded verify data, but obtain from other formation portions, make later stage changing identification data become possibility.
And at step S1202, display control unit 202 also can not judge in the control signal of reception whether comprise verify data 1003, and judges whether the control instruction data 1001 that comprise in control signal are to win the first prize in lottery director data.In the case, the control instruction data 1001 that comprise in control signal are when winning the first prize in lottery director data, display control unit 202 extracts verify data in control signal, the expected value (step S1203) of access authentication data, judges the verify data and expected value whether consistent (step S1204) that in control signal, comprise.
When verify data is consistent with expected value (step S1204:Yes), display control unit 202 authenticates the legitimacy of the master control part 201 transmitting control signal, the control instruction data 1001 of enforcement based on comprising in control signal and the processing (step S1205) of ancillary data 1002, the processing of process ends figure.On the other hand, in verify data and expected value when inconsistent (step S1204:No), display control unit 202 does not authenticate the legitimacy of the master control part 201 transmitting control signal, discarded control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002, and certainly report signal efferent 323(with reference to Fig. 3) export and report signal (step S1206), the processing of process ends figure.In addition, at step S1206, also only implementation data discarded or report in one.
And, at step S1202, while not comprising verify data in control signal (step S1202:No), display control unit 202 is not implemented authentication processing, directly implement the processing (step S1205) based on control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002, the processing of process ends figure.
Adopt the precedence diagram of Figure 13 that the control signal flow process between master control part 201 and display control unit 202 is described.Figure 13 is the precedence diagram for one of control signal flow process between control part example is described.In Figure 13, dotted line around part be the step of an authentication processing.In control instruction data 1001, when winning the first prize in lottery the instruction beyond instruction, master control part 201 setup control director data 1001(win the first prize in lottery instruction control instruction in addition) and ancillary data 1002(step S1301).Then, master control part 201 is sent to display control unit 202(step S1302 using control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002 as common control signal).
Display control unit 202 is received in the common control signal (step S1303) that step S1302 sends, and implements the processing (step S1304) based on control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002.Like this, in control instruction data 1001, when winning the first prize in lottery the instruction beyond instruction, display control unit 202 is not implemented authentication processing, and the processing of enforcement based on control signal.
Then, in control instruction data 1001, when winning the first prize in lottery instruction, master control part 201 setup control director data 1001(win the first prize in lottery director data) and ancillary data 1002(step S1305).Master control part 201 also generates verify data 1003(step S1306).Then, master control part 201 is sent to display control unit 202(step S1307 by the control signal with verify data that comprises control instruction data 1001, ancillary data 1002 and verify data 1003).
Display control unit 202 is received in the control signal with verify data (step S1308) that step S1307 sends.Then, display control unit 202 adopts the verify data comprising in control signal to implement authentication processing (step S1309).When authentication is set up, peripheral substrate is implemented the processing (step S1310) based on control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002.In addition, when authentication is false, discarded control instruction data 1001 and ancillary data 1002(are with reference to the step S1206 of Figure 12).
In addition, adopt the authentication processing of verify data also can when each reception verify data, not implement, and implement when receiving a plurality of verify datas.In the case, for example, at display control unit 202, receiving the 1st and winning the first prize in lottery director data and the 1st and control while also receiving the 1st verify data in data, do not implementing authentication processing, and implementing the processing that wins the first prize in lottery director data and the 1st and control data based on the 1st.Then, display control unit 202 wins the first prize in lottery director data and the 2nd and controls while also receiving the 2nd verify data in data receiving the 2nd, wins the first prize in lottery before director data and the 2nd controls the processing of data based on the 2nd implementing, and implements the processing of the 1st verify data.Now, display control unit 202 also can adopt the 1st verify data and the 2nd verify data to implement authentication processing.So,, if implement authentication processing when receiving a plurality of verify data, can reduce the possibility of implementing mistakenly authentication processing while having added redundant data due to mistake in control signal.
As described above, in the marble game machine of present embodiment, when sending specific control instruction, adopt the verify data that is intended to the legitimacy that authenticates master control part 201 to implement authentication processing.Verify data is generated by the routine data being stored in regular master control part 201.Therefore, can find that regular master control part 201 is replaced by illegal substrate, or between regular master control part 201 and peripheral substrate, illegal substrate is installed.And, if comprise the control instruction data and the ancillary data that this time send, generate verify data, can prevent the recycling of illegal control substrate to verify data, find more reliably the illegal act for marble game machine.
And, in the marble game machine of present embodiment, when master control part 201 wins the first prize in lottery instruction to peripheral substrate transmission, implement the authentication processing of the legitimacy of authentication master control part 201.Therefore, only change wins the first prize in lottery the timing design under state, can implement authentication processing to existing marble game machine.And the processing load of master control part 201 and peripheral substrate increases owing to implementing authentication processing and make, only have send win the first prize in lottery instruction during (during winning the first prize in lottery state), can suppress the ratio that the processing load of master control part 201 and peripheral substrate increases.
And, in the marble game machine of present embodiment, owing to winning the first prize in lottery instruction, be that each bout during winning the first prize in lottery sends, so in during winning the first prize in lottery state certain, will implement plural inferior authentication processing.The accuracy that can improve thus authentication processing, detects the illegal act for master control part 201 and peripheral substrate more reliably.
And, in the above description, be when transmission wins the first prize in lottery instruction, to send verify data, but also can when sending other control instructions, send verify data.Specifically, for example, also can win the first prize in lottery sign in transmission, win the first prize in lottery END instruction, win the first prize in lottery vertical direct at the instruction that make, switches on power, the demonstration instruction of receiving guests, stop receiving guests demonstration instruction or not in during any (can be also plural) in instruction, transmission verify data.In these cases, the precedence diagram of one of control signal flow process between the expression control part shown in flow chart and Figure 13 of the step of the control signal transmission processing that the expression shown in Figure 11 is implemented by master control part example sends verify data situation while winning the first prize in lottery instruction from transmission is different, so the corresponding flow chart of each instruction and precedence diagram are as shown in Figure 16~Figure 29.
As their the winning the first prize in lottery sign on and win the first prize in lottery END instruction of one of variation, be the instruction that starts or finish the state that wins the first prize in lottery, lower than the transmission frequency of other instructions.Therefore, only in master control part 201, when peripheral substrate transmission wins the first prize in lottery sign on (or winning the first prize in lottery END instruction), implement the authentication processing of the legitimacy of authentication master control part 201, can reduce the possibility of extracting verify data in control signal.And, even if extracted verify data from control signal, because obtainable sampling number is few, so can reduce the resolved possibility of verify data (with reference to Figure 16~Figure 19).
And, win the first prize in lottery vertical straight higher than the occurrence frequency winning the first prize in lottery.And, win the first prize in lottery the vertical straight generation moment and there is randomness.Therefore, in master control part 201, to peripheral substrate, send and win the first prize in lottery vertical directing at while making and implement the authentication processing of legitimacy of authentication master control part 201, by win the first prize in lottery vertical directing at while making in transmission, implement authentication processing, disperseed the authentication processing enforcing location on time shaft.And, by the authentication processing enforcing location on jitter time axle like this, can improve the reliability of authentication processing.This be because, even when there is the not smooth and verify data of verify data communication in during certain and being tampered, because be intermittently to implement randomly authentication processing, so improved the possibility (with reference to Figure 20, Figure 21) of avoid communicating by letter not smooth and the impact that is tampered.
And the instruction that switches on power sends when implementing the marble game machine initialization process such as connection Ball paddle device electromechanical source and reset.Initialization process belongs to from the main processing of marble game machine about the different processing classification of the processing of game (implementing game).Therefore, if when master control part 201 switches on power instruction to peripheral substrate transmission, implement the authentication processing of the legitimacy of authentication master control part 201, during initialization process, enroll authentication processing, with enrolling authentication processing and compare during the processing of game, can reduce the increase ratio of programming and test step (man-hour).That is,, by enroll authentication processing during initialization process, can obtain the reduction of development cost and the advantage of quality management aspect (with reference to Figure 22, Figure 23).
Moreover, if enroll authentication processing during initialization process, due to be marble game machine start after implement immediately authentication processing, so, even while suffering from illegal act after the close up shop and stop business of hoodle shop, also can before client enters shop, detect illegal act.Therefore can reduce the possibility that generation is damaged by illegal act.
And the demonstration instruction or stop of the receiving guests demonstration instruction of receiving guests does not implement the main processing of marble game machine at marble game machine in non-game state---during the processing of relevant game (implementing to play), send.Therefore, if implemented the authentication processing of legitimacy of authentication master control part 201 when demonstration instruction is received guests in peripheral substrate transmission in master control part 201, because the processing that authentication processing increases is loaded not to exerting an influence about the processing of playing.Therefore, even when master control part 201 and peripheral substrate not yet possess higher disposal ability, or about the larger marble game machine of processing load of the processing of game, also can append authentication processing function (with reference to Figure 24~Figure 27).
And, select result when selecting, the occurrence frequency of " not " is the highest.Therefore, if in sending not during instruction in director data additional authentication data, can be by from selecting until the flow process of authentication processing is considered as the fundamental form of marble game machine processing.Win the first prize in lottery vertical when straight and the processing in while winning the first prize in lottery different because of the type difference display packing of marble game machine, belong to special processing, but type difference is little for the processing time.Therefore,, if enroll authentication processing in the processing in not time, authentication processing flow process needn't increase large change, marble game machine body can be used in once again to other types (with reference to Figure 28, Figure 29).
And the processing of master control part 201 and peripheral substrate load is owing to implementing authentication processing and increase just in sending not instruction, so can suppress the processing of master control part 201 and the peripheral substrate ratio increasing because of authentication processing of loading.
In addition, the illustrated main control substrate of present embodiment and the control method of peripheral substrate can realize by implement pre-prepd program on the computers such as personal computer and work station.This program can be recorded in the recording medium that the available computers such as hard disk, floppy disk, CD-ROM, MO, DVD read, and reads to implement by computer in recording medium.And this program can be also can be via the transmission medium of the network issues such as internet.
[industry applications]
As mentioned above, the present invention can be used for worrying the electronic equipment of the illegal act to control part and the control substrate that this electronic equipment carries, is particularly suitable for marble game machine, slice, thin piece game machine and other various game machines.
