It is detected whether or not the card unit 654 is provided separately from the pachinko machine 100 via the interface unit 556.

  The firing control unit 600 determines the amount of operation of the operation handle 148 by the player, which is output from the control signal instructing permission or stop of firing output from the payout control unit 550 or the firing intensity output circuit provided in the operation handle 148. Based on the control signal instructing the corresponding launch intensity, the launch motor 602 that drives the launcher 138 and the launcher 140 is controlled, and the ball feeder 604 that supplies the ball from the storage plate 144 to the launch rail 142 is controlled. .

  The power management unit 650 converts the AC power supplied from the outside to the pachinko machine 100 into a direct current, converts it into a predetermined voltage, and controls the control units such as the main control unit 300 and the sub control unit 400, and the devices such as the dispensing device 552. To supply. Further, the power management unit 650 supplies a power storage circuit (for example, a power supply circuit) for supplying power to a predetermined part (for example, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300) for a predetermined period (for example, 10 days) even after the external power supply is cut off. Capacitor).

<Boarding board>
Various boards are used for the game table. In this specification, the substrate means that a plurality of various components such as an integrated circuit (IC), a resistor (R), a capacitor (C), or a connector (CN) are arranged, and these components are mutually connected. It is a plate-like member for constituting a circuit by connecting with a conductor. In addition, the term “substrate” simply indicates a state in which no component is included, but may include a state in which the component is mounted.

  In manufacturing a substrate, a circuit diagram is usually drawn first based on circuit design. This circuit diagram includes a plurality of circuits, and each circuit is indicated by circuit data. Each of these circuits has a common type of component.

  And in order to manufacture a board | substrate based on this circuit diagram, board | substrate data are created. The substrate data includes, for example, pattern data, resist data, silk data, hole data, and the like.

  Therefore, a specific example of a test board for testing the pachinko machine 100 as described above will be specifically described as an example of the board of the game table. FIG. 5 is a circuit diagram serving as the basis of this test board. FIG. 6 shows conductor pattern data, which is a type of substrate data created based on this circuit diagram. FIG. 7 shows resist data for applying a heat-resistant coating material that prevents lands, conductor patterns, and the like other than lands necessary for soldering from adhering to the solder. With this coating material, solder shorts can be suppressed during soldering, insulation can be maintained, and conductors can be protected. FIG. 8 shows silk data for printing and displaying a component name or the like on a substrate. These board data can be easily created using a circuit diagram tool provided with a computer program.

  First, in the circuit diagram shown in FIG. 5, attention is paid to a connector CNx (x is a predetermined number, the same applies hereinafter), which is one of the parts, and this noticed part is set as a specific part in this embodiment. In other words, it can be said that the circuit of the test board includes six connectors CN1 to CN6 as specific parts.

  Specifically, in the circuit diagram of FIG. 5, the connector CN1 is described at the upper left corner (the same applies to the display characters when viewed in the correct orientation), and the connector CN4 is described near the lower part. Further, a connector CN2 is described on the right side of the connector CN1, and a connector CN5 is described on the right side of the connector CN4 and on the right side of the connector CN2. A connector CN6 is described below the connector CN2 and below the connector CN5 and to the left of the heel. Further, a connector CN3 is described below the connector CN6 and slightly to the left of the connector CN6.

  On the other hand, FIG. 6 shows pattern data of conductors for connecting components arranged on a substrate (metal-clad insulating substrate) based on the circuit diagram described above. Furthermore, FIG. 7 shows resist data for preventing adhesion of solder and protecting the substrate.

  Further, FIG. 8 shows silk data for printing on the board the type, pin number, or arrangement position of each component including each connector CNx arranged on the board. Note that the part numbers CNx, Rx, Cx, and ICx of parts described in these drawings are part numbers automatically assigned by the circuit diagram tool. Therefore, the part number automatically assigned by the circuit diagram tool may be referred to as a temporary part number.

  By the way, according to the provisional silk data provided with the provisional part number shown in FIG. 8, the connector CN1 is arranged along the upper edge of the board, near the upper left corner of the board. The connector CN2 is disposed in the vicinity of the right side edge of the board and substantially in parallel along the side edge, and the connector CN3 is disposed near the lower edge of the board and closer to the left side corner. The connector CN4 is arranged vertically along the left side edge of the board, and the connector CN5 is arranged below the connector CN2 along the right side edge of the board. The connector CN6 is disposed near the upper edge of the board between the connector CN1 and the connector CN2.

  As described above, in the conventional board, the part number automatically assigned by the circuit diagram tool is displayed as it is, so that the connector CN1 to the connector CN6 are arranged and displayed without any relation. Therefore, there has been a problem that it causes a wiring mistake and takes much time to check.

  Therefore, in the present invention, attention is paid to silk data that displays the type of component to be arranged on the board 700, the pin number, the arrangement position, etc. According to the law, the part number of each part is reset.

  For example, in the embodiment of silk data shown in FIG. 9, the reference position P is set at the upper left corner of the same plane as the component mounting surface of the substrate 700. A first reference line L1 having a predetermined width including the reference position P is set in the horizontal direction on the same plane as the component mounting surface along the upper edge of the substrate 700. Further, the second reference line L2 is set in a direction substantially orthogonal to the first reference line L1, that is, in the vertical direction of the substrate 700. Note that attachment holes 710 are provided at the four corners of the substrate 700, and the reference position P coincides with the attachment hole 710 at the upper left corner.

  First, component numbers are reset in order from the closest to the reference position P for specific components located in the first reference line L1 that is the horizontal region A1 having a predetermined width. Next, when the first area A1 reaches the right end of the substrate 700, the second predetermined area A2 along the first reference line L1 is set in the non-set area in the vertical direction along the second reference line L2. In the second area A2, the part numbers are reset along the first reference line L1 in order from the one closest to the reference position P. By sequentially repeating this, the part number of each part is reset to a new confirmed part number.

  Therefore, in the embodiment of silk data shown in FIG. 9, CNx, which is the part number of the connector, is reset according to the above-mentioned predetermined law. First, let CN1 be the part number of the connector located within the first reference line L1 including the reference position P and closest to the reference position P. This connector CN1 is the connector cn1 before correction. Hereinafter, the part number before correction is expressed in lower case letters.

  Next, the part number of the connector cn6 that is in the first area A1 and is the second closest position from the reference position P is reset to CN2. Further, the part number of the connector cn2 that partially covers the first area A1 is reset to CN3. When the first area A1 reaches the right end of the substrate 700, the second area A2 is set in parallel with the first reference line L1 in the unset area along the second reference line L2. In this case, the part number of the connector cn4 that partially covers the area A2 is set to CN4. In this way, the part numbers of the connectors in each area A are sequentially reset to the determined part numbers.

  On the other hand, the resistor R, the capacitor C, and the integrated circuit IC, which are other specific components, are also located in the respective regions A set along the first reference line L1 and the second reference line L2, similarly to the connector described above. The part number of each part to be set is reset to Rx, Cx, and ICx, respectively. In this way, when the part numbers of the respective parts are reset to the determined part numbers, the parts are arranged in the order of the numbers. Therefore, it becomes easy to see and it is very easy to search for a desired part.

  As described above, the part number set for each part is displayed in a display mode in which a part is common for each type of the part. For example, when the component is a connector, “CN” is displayed as a common character string such as CN1, CN2, CN3,. In the case of resistors, capacitors, and integrated circuits, “R”, “C”, and “IC” are displayed as common character strings.

  Thus, if a part is displayed in a common display mode for each type of component, it is possible to determine at a glance what type of component this component is. In addition, it is easy to grasp the part number for each type of part.

  As is clear from the silk data drawings shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the part number of each part printed and displayed on the substrate 700 is displayed in the vicinity of the part. For this reason, the correspondence between the parts and the part numbers can be seen at a glance, and the correspondence between the parts and the part numbers is not mistaken.

  By the way, the confirmed part number in FIG. 9 representing the silk data in which the part number is reset does not match the part number in the circuit diagram (part number in FIG. 5). Therefore, next, the part number of the circuit diagram is reset so as to match the confirmed part number of the reset silk data. A circuit diagram in which the part number is reset based on the silk data shown in FIG. 9 is the circuit diagram shown in FIG.

  For example, pay attention to the vicinity of the upper left corner of the circuit diagram shown in FIG. First, for the connector cn1, the part number is not changed and becomes CN1. Next, focusing on the integrated circuit located on the right side of this connector, the part number of this integrated circuit is ic3a before correction, but is integrated circuit IC1A after correction. The capacitors c4, c6, c5, and c7 connected to the integrated circuit ic3a become capacitors C4, C3, C2, and C1.

  For other connectors, capacitors, resistors, and integrated circuits as well, the part numbers shown in the circuit diagram are reset so that they match the part numbers shown in the reset silk data.

  If the provisional part number is reset to the confirmed part number in this way, the same type of parts are arranged in the order of the numbers, so that it is easy to find a desired part. Further, since the circuit diagram and the component number displayed on the board match, it is very easy to collate the component with the circuit diagram. Therefore, there is no risk of a check mistake or the like.

  It should be noted that resetting of the part number in the board data including the silk data and the circuit data of the circuit diagram as described above can be easily performed by applying a computer program for the circuit diagram.

  Then, as described above, a provisional part number is set for the part in the circuit diagram, and silk data indicating at least the part placement location and the provisional part number corresponding to the part is created based on the part number. Based on the positional relationship between the reference position on the board indicated by the silk data and each of the parts, a fixed part number is reset instead of the temporary part number described above, and based on the circuit data reflecting this fixed part number The substrate can be manufactured.

  By the way, the predetermined width of the first reference line L1 can be appropriately set according to the components to be arranged. That is, a relatively large part such as the connector CN or the integrated circuit IC may be set wide, and a small part such as the resistor R or the capacitor C may be set narrow. This is a consideration to prevent parts of the same type from being arranged in the width direction (vertical direction) in the first reference line L1.

  FIG. 11 shows another embodiment of the present invention, which is a modification of the method of setting the part number. That is, in this embodiment, the way of setting the reference position P is changed. Specifically, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 11A, the reference position P is set in the upper left corner of the left side when a slightly long horizontally oriented substrate 700 is placed in the horizontal direction. A first reference line L1 having a predetermined width is set from the reference position P in the horizontal direction. Further, the second reference line L2 is set in an unset area in the direction orthogonal to the first reference line L1.

  And along this 1st reference line L1, the part number is set in order for every kind of part. For example, the part numbers of the two connectors arranged in the second row area (area indicated by the number 2 on the left side of the board 700) A2 are set to CN1 and CN2 from the side closer to the reference position P, and The part number of the integrated circuit that partially covers this area A2 is set to IC1.

  Next, since the upper half portion of the third connector is located in the third row area A3 indicated by the numeral 3 on the left side of the substrate 700, the part number CN3 is set for this connector. Further, since the upper half portion of the second integrated circuit is located in the area A3 in the third column, the part number IC2 is set for this integrated circuit. Further, since a plurality of resistors and capacitors are arranged in the third row area A3, the respective component numbers are assigned to these resistors and capacitors in sequence numbers. That is, part numbers R1 to R4 are set for the resistors. On the other hand, part numbers C1 to C4 are set for the capacitors.

  Similarly, a part number is set for each part located in each region A. In addition, when a part is arrange | positioned ranging over several area | region A ..., what is necessary is just to set a part number as what is arrange | positioned in the area | region A where the part appears first. Thus, if there is a part at the position where it first appears, it can be easily found when searching for the part from the reference position P.

  The embodiment shown in FIG. 11B is a case where the present invention is applied to a diamond-shaped substrate 700. That is, in this embodiment, the reference position P is set near the upper vertex of the rhomboid substrate 700. Further, the first reference line L1 is set in the horizontal direction including the reference position P, and the second reference line L2 is set in an unset area in a direction orthogonal to the first reference line L1. Then, for each component arranged on the substrate 700, a component number is set for each component type sequentially from the one close to the reference position P according to a predetermined rule.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 12A, the reference position P is set near the apex of the circular substrate 700, the first reference line L1 is set in the horizontal direction including the reference position P, and the first A second reference line L2 is set in an unset area in a direction orthogonal to the reference line L1. That is, the reference position P is set at one point on the outer peripheral portion of the substrate 700.

  Then, according to a predetermined law based on the positional relationship between the reference position P and the placement location on the board 700, for example, in order from the closest to the reference position P, each component placed on the board 700 is classified into the type of part. A part number is set for each.

  In this embodiment, the two connectors arranged below the board 700 are located obliquely. However, the part number may be set assuming that the two connectors are arranged in the first appearing region.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 12B, a reference position P is set near the apex of the star-shaped substrate 700, and a first reference line L1 is set in the horizontal direction including the reference position P. The second reference line L2 is set in an unset area in a direction orthogonal to the first reference line L1. That is, the reference position P is set at one point on the outer peripheral portion of the substrate 700.

  Then, according to a predetermined law based on the positional relationship between the reference position P and the placement location on the board 700, for example, in order from the closest to the reference position P, each component placed on the board 700 is classified into the type of part. A part number is set for each.

  In this embodiment, areas (areas indicated by numerals 8 and 9) A8 and A9 along the first reference line L1 below the substrate 700 are actually interrupted, but these areas are also continuous. It is only necessary to set the consecutive part numbers.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part.

  As shown in these embodiments, the substrate 700 may have any shape, and a component number can be set for each component type according to a predetermined rule.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 13A, a part of a predetermined rule for setting a part number is changed. That is, in this embodiment, the reference position P is set to the left end of the first area A1, the part number is set to the part arranged in the area A1, and when reaching the right end of the area, the reference position P is folded. The part number is set for the part in the area A2 in the second column. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 13A, a part number is set from the left side to the parts arranged in the odd-numbered (n + 1) area A (n + 1), and the even-numbered (2n) area A ( For the parts arranged in 2n), a part number is set from the right side.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part. For example, when checking. Since the line of sight can be moved continuously, it becomes easier to follow with eyes.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 13B, a part of a predetermined rule for setting a part number is changed. That is, in this embodiment, the reference position P is set to the left end of the first area A1. Further, in this embodiment, the area A... Where the part number is set next is set in the direction of the first reference line L1 with a predetermined interval along the second reference line L2. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 13 (b), it is set so as to jump one line, and when it reaches the lower edge of the substrate 700, it returns to the lower side of the reference position P.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part.

  In the example shown in FIG. 14A, the setting of the region A along the first reference line L1 is changed. That is, in this embodiment, the width of the region A set in the horizontal direction of the substrate 700 is changed according to the components to be arranged. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 14A, a narrow first area As for resistors and capacitors and a wide first area Aw for connectors and integrated circuits are set. The rules for setting the part numbers in order from the side closer to the reference position P or the side farther from the reference position P are the same as those in the above-described embodiments.

  For example, the setting of the part number is started for the resistor and the capacitor in the region As3 along the first reference line L1 indicated by the numeral 3 attached to the left side of the substrate 700, and sequentially set toward the right side. When the right end of the substrate 700 is reached, the part number is set in the area As4 indicated by the next numeral 4.

  On the other hand, about connectors and integrated circuits. As indicated by the numeral 1 on the right side of the substrate 700, a wide area, specifically, a region along the first reference line L1 having a width obtained by dividing the substrate 700 into two in the vertical direction (for the resistors and capacitors described above). (Corresponding to three and a half areas) Aw1 is set, and the part numbers are sequentially set in order from the closest to the reference position P for the connectors and integrated circuits arranged in this area.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part. In addition, since a wide area Aw is set for a large part such as a connector or an integrated circuit, and a narrow area As is set for a small part such as a resistor or a capacitor, the small part has a width of the same area. There is no line in the direction (longitudinal direction), and large parts do not straddle a plurality of regions.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 14B, the setting of the reference position P is changed. In other words, in this embodiment, the reference position P is set to a position that is located inward by a predetermined distance from the left end of the substrate 700 in the first region A1 that is set substantially in the middle of the substrate 700 in the vertical direction. Then, the first reference line L1 in the horizontal direction including the reference position P and the second reference line L2 set in the unset area in the direction orthogonal to the first reference line L1 are along the first reference line L1. A predetermined area A... Is sequentially set, and a part number is set for each part arranged on the board 700.

  At this time, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 14B, the second region A2 is set below the first region A1 including the reference position P, and the third region A3 is the first region A1. The upper and lower portions are alternately set around the first region A1 so as to be positioned on the upper side. Then, for each part, a part number is set in accordance with the type of the part in order from the closest to the reference position P.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part.

That is, in this embodiment, the reference position P is set at the upper left corner of the substrate 700, a concentric circle is drawn around the reference position P, and this concentric circle is defined as the second reference line L2. Also in this embodiment, a part number corresponding to the type is set for each part in accordance with the rule that the part numbers are set in order from the closest to the reference position P or from the farthest. In addition, when a part straddles several area | regions, what is necessary is just to set a part number as what is arrange | positioned in the area | region where the part appears first.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 15B, the setting of the reference position P and the setting of the reference line are changed. In other words, in this embodiment, the reference position P is set at the approximate center of the substrate 700, and a spiral around the reference position P is drawn, and this spiral is used as a reference line. Also in this embodiment, the part number is set for each part according to the rule that the part number is set for each type of part in order from the closest to the reference position P or from the farthest. Moreover, when straddling a several area | region, what is necessary is just to set a part number as what is arrange | positioned in the area | region where the part appears first.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part.

  Further, although not shown, for example, the reference position is set at the upper left corner of the board, and a radial second reference line is set around the reference position, and the component numbers are sequentially arranged from the closest to the reference position. The part number can be set for each part in accordance with the rule of setting “. In addition, when a part straddles several area | regions, what is necessary is just to set a part number as what is arrange | positioned in the area | region where the part appears first.

  Also according to this embodiment, it is easy to grasp the part number of each part and the same type of parts are arranged in order of number, so that it is easy to find a desired part.

  For a substrate having a circular shape or a shape close to a circle, a reference position is set at the center of the substrate, a concentric circle centered on the reference position and a region partitioned by radiation are set and arranged in this region. For each part, a part number can be set for each type of part in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction from the position close to the reference position.

  As mentioned above, although the Example applied to the test board | substrate was described, the board | substrate of the game machine which concerns on this invention is the main control board which comprises the main control part 300 of the above-mentioned pachinko machine 100, and the sub control which comprises the sub control part 400.
