Claims

A gaming machine in which a player can play a predetermined game,
A game control microcomputer for controlling the progress of the game, having a game control change data storage means for storing change data generated when the control is performed ;
In accordance with a command from the gaming control microcomputer , a presentation control microcomputer that performs processing for controlling a presentation electrical component provided in the gaming machine ;
A payout control microcomputer which controls payout of game media in response to a command from the game control microcomputer;
Storage content holding means capable of holding the storage content of the game control variation data storage means for a predetermined period even when power supply to the gaming machine is stopped;
Power supply monitoring means for detecting a voltage drop of a predetermined power supply voltage and outputting a detection signal when the occurrence of power supply interruption is detected;
Game medium detecting means for detecting a game medium;
An initialization operation means for outputting an operation signal according to the operation,
The game control microcomputer is:
The same subroutine is called for command output processing for outputting command data and a capture signal instructing capture of command data to the effect control microcomputer and the payout control microcomputer. Run and
A process for setting a backup flag in the game control variation data storage means in response to the input of the detection signal, and a check data creation process for use in determining whether or not the storage contents of the game control variation data storage means are normal Execute processing for stopping power supply for game control including
When power supply is started, determine whether the operation signal is input from the initialization operation means,
If the operation signal is input from the initialization operation means, the game control variation data storage is performed without determining whether or not the backup flag is set in the game control variation data storage means. Initialize the stored contents of the means,
When it is determined that the operation signal is not input from the initialization operation means, it is determined whether or not the backup flag is set in the game control variation data storage means,
When it is determined that the backup flag is not set in the game control variation data storage means, it is possible to determine whether or not the stored contents of the game control variation data storage means are normal based on the check data. , Initializing the storage contents of the game control variation data storage means,
When it is determined that the backup flag is set in the game control variation data storage means, it is determined whether or not the stored contents of the game control variation data storage means are normal based on the check data. And
When it is determined that the storage content of the game control variation data storage means is not normal, the storage content of the game control variation data storage means is initialized,
On the condition that the storage contents of the game control variation data storage means are determined to be normal, the control state is changed to the game control power based on the storage contents stored in the game control variation data storage means. Execute the game control state return control to restore the state when the supply stop processing was started,
It is determined whether or not the operation signal from the initialization operation means is input in a request detection determination period shorter than a game medium detection determination period in which a signal output from the game medium detection means is determined to be valid. A gaming machine characterized by that.

A gaming machine in which a player can play a predetermined game,
A game control microcomputer for controlling the progress of the game;
In accordance with a command from the gaming control microcomputer, a presentation control microcomputer that performs processing for controlling a presentation electrical component provided in the gaming machine;
A payout control microcomputer for controlling payout of game media in accordance with a command from the game control microcomputer; and a payout control fluctuation data storage means for storing fluctuation data generated when performing control. ,
Storage content holding means capable of holding the storage content of the payout control variation data storage means for a predetermined period even when power supply to the gaming machine is stopped;
Power supply monitoring means for detecting a voltage drop of a predetermined power supply voltage and outputting a detection signal when the occurrence of power supply interruption is detected;
Game medium detecting means for detecting a game medium;
An initialization operation means for outputting an operation signal according to the operation,
The game control microcomputer outputs command data and a command signal for instructing the command data to be fetched to the effect control microcomputer and the payout control microcomputer. The process is executed by calling the same subroutine,
The dispensing control microcomputer is:
Processing for setting a backup flag in the payout control variation data storage means in response to the input of the detection signal, and creation of check data used for determining whether or not the storage content of the payout control variation data storage means is normal Execute processing at the time of power supply stop for payout control including
When power supply is started, determine whether the operation signal is input from the initialization operation means,
If the operation signal is input from the initialization operation means, the payout control variable data storage is performed without executing the determination as to whether or not the backup flag is set in the payout control variable data storage means. Initialize the stored contents of the means,
When it is determined that the operation signal is not input from the initialization operation means, it is determined whether or not the backup flag is set in the payout control variation data storage means,
When it is determined that the backup flag is not set in the payout control variable data storage means, it is not determined whether or not the storage content of the payout control variable data storage means is normal based on the check data. , Initializing the storage contents of the payout control variation data storage means,
When it is determined that the backup flag is set in the payout control variable data storage means, a determination is made as to whether or not the storage content of the payout control variable data storage means is normal based on the check data. And
When it is determined that the storage content of the payout control variation data storage means is not normal, the storage content of the payout control variation data storage means is initialized,
On the condition that the storage content of the payout control variation data storage means is determined to be normal, the control state is controlled based on the storage content stored in the payout control variation data storage means. Executes state return control for payout control that restores the state when the supply stop process was started,
It is determined whether or not the operation signal from the initialization operation means is input in a request detection determination period shorter than a game medium detection determination period in which a signal output from the game medium detection means is determined to be valid.
A gaming machine characterized by that.
