Claims (1)

A plurality of reels having a plurality of types of symbols on the outer peripheral surface;
A motor for driving the plurality of reels;
Start command means for commanding rotation start of the plurality of reels;
Stop command means for commanding stop of rotation of the plurality of reels;
A reel control means for controlling the driving of the reel by two-phase excitation of the excitation phase of the motor based on a command from the start command means or the stop command means,
An internal winning combination determining means for determining an internal winning combination based on a command from the start command means,
The reel control means includes
Pulse output means for outputting a pulse for exciting the excitation phase;
Based on a command from the start command means, rotation control means for rotating the plurality of reels by sequentially exciting the corresponding excitation phases with a reference current value;
A symbol position specifying start unit that starts specifying the positions of the symbols on the plurality of reels based on the rotation control unit rotating the plurality of reels at a constant speed;
A pulse counting means for counting pulses output by the pulse output means based on the start of the specification of the position of the symbol by the symbol position specifying start means;
The symbol position information updating means for updating the symbol position information on the assumption that the symbol is displaced based on the number of pulses counted by the pulse counting means being a predetermined value;
When there is a command from the stop command means, based on the determination result of the internal symbol combination determining means, the symbol position information to be stopped within the range of the movement amount for a predetermined number of symbols from the current symbol position Stop symbol position information determining means for determining
Stop control means for stopping the plurality of reels when the symbol position information updated by the symbol position information update means matches the stop symbol position information determined by the stop symbol position information determination means, Including
The stop control means includes
The symbol position information updated by the symbol position information updating means matches the stop symbol position information determined by the stop symbol position information determining means, and the number of pulses counted by the pulse counting means is a specific value. Based on this, the first stop control is performed to excite the excitation phase with a first current value smaller than the reference current value, thereby controlling the drive of the motor and stopping the plurality of reels. A gaming machine characterized by controlling.
