Description

本発明による遊技機は、所定の遊技を行うことが可能な遊技機であって、制御を行う際に発生する変動データ（例えば、特別図柄プロセスフラグ、保留記憶数カウンタの値）を記憶する変動データ記憶手段（例えば、ＲＡＭ５５）と、遊技機への電力供給が停止していても変動データ記憶手段の記憶内容を所定期間保持させることが可能な記憶内容保持手段（例えば、バックアップ電源としてのコンデンサ）と、操作に応じて操作信号を出力する初期化操作手段（例えば、クリアスイッチ）と、電力供給が開始され、初期化操作手段からの操作信号が入力されたときに、変動データ記憶手段の記憶内容を初期化する初期化処理を実行する初期化処理実行手段（例えば、遊技制御用マイクロコンピュータ５６０におけるステップＳ１０〜Ｓ１４を実行する部分）と、所定のエラーが発生しているか否かを判定するエラー判定手段（例えば、遊技制御用マイクロコンピュータ５６０におけるステップＳ１２１〜Ｓ１２６を実行する部分）と、遊技機の外部に信号を出力する信号線を接続するための複数の端子と、少なくとも、初期化処理実行手段によって初期化処理が実行されたこと、およびエラー判定手段によって所定のエラーが発生していると判定されたことを含む所定の信号出力条件が成立したこと（例えば、初期化処理が実行されたこと、始動入賞口１４への異常入賞を検出したこと）にもとづいて、端子を介して遊技機の外部に所定の外部出力信号（例えば、セキュリティ信号）を出力する外部出力手段（例えば、遊技制御用マイクロコンピュータ５６０におけるステップＳ１４ａ，Ｓ１２７でセキュリティ信号情報タイマをセットした後に、ステップＳ１０６９〜Ｓ１１０３を実行して、セキュリティ信号を出力する部分）と、を備え、外部出力手段は、初期化処理実行手段によって初期化処理が実行されたときとエラー判定手段によって所定のエラーが発生していると判定されたときとで、共通の端子（例えば、ターミナル基板１６０に設けられたコネクタＣＮ７）から所定の外部出力信号を出力し（例えば、遊技制御用マイクロコンピュータ５６０は、ステップＳ１４ａ，Ｓ１２７，Ｓ１０６９〜Ｓ１１０３を実行することによって、ターミナル基板１６０のコネクタＣＮ７から共通のセキュリティ信号として外部出力する）、共通の端子は、２つの端子を１のセットとして構成されるとともに、信号線を開放するための摘み部が端子ごとに設けられ、摘み部は、相互に互い違いになるように配置されていることを特徴とする。そのような構成により、初期化処理が実行されたことにもとづいて所定の外部出力信号を出力することによって、遊技機への電源投入時に行われる不正行為を防止することができる。また、初期化処理が実行されたときと所定のエラーが発生していると判定されたときとで共通の端子に所定の外部出力信号を出力するので、外部出力用の信号線の無駄を低減することができる。従って、遊技機への電源投入時に行われる不正行為を防止しつつ、外部出力用の信号線の無駄を低減することができる。 Gaming machine according to the present invention is a game machine capable of performing a predetermined game, and stores the variation data generated when performing control (for example, a special symbol process flag, a reserved value storage number counter) Fluctuation data storage means (for example, RAM 55) and storage content holding means (for example, as a backup power source) capable of retaining the storage contents of the fluctuation data storage means for a predetermined period even when power supply to the gaming machine is stopped Capacitor), initialization operation means (for example, a clear switch) that outputs an operation signal in response to an operation, and fluctuation data storage means when power supply is started and an operation signal is input from the initialization operation means Initialization processing execution means for executing initialization processing for initializing the stored contents of the game (for example, steps S10 to S14 in the game control microcomputer 560) A portion to be executed), error determination means for determining whether or not a predetermined error has occurred (for example, a portion for executing steps S121 to S126 in the gaming control microcomputer 560), and a signal to the outside of the gaming machine A plurality of terminals for connecting signal lines to be output , at least that initialization processing has been executed by the initialization processing execution means, and that a predetermined error has been determined by the error determination means the predetermined signal output conditions including is satisfied (e.g., the initialization process is performed, the detection of the abnormality winning to start winning opening 14) on the basis of, outside of predetermined game machine through the terminal External output means for outputting an external output signal (for example, a security signal) (for example, step S in the game control microcomputer 560) 4a, after setting the security signal information timer S127, by executing the steps S1069～S1103, a portion) that outputs a security signal, comprising a external output unit, initialization processing by the initialization process executing means by the error determination means when executed as when the predetermined error is determined to have occurred, common terminals (e.g., connector CN7 provided on the terminal board 160) outputs a predetermined external output signal from the and (for example, a game control microcomputer 560, step S14a, S127, by executing the S1069～S1103, externally outputs a common security signals from the connector CN7 terminal substrate 160), the terminal of the common, 2 One terminal is configured as one set and the signal line is opened To handle portion is provided for each terminal for knob portion, characterized in that it is arranged so as to be staggered with each other. With such a configuration, by outputting a predetermined external output signal based on the execution of the initialization process, it is possible to prevent an illegal act performed when the gaming machine is turned on. In addition, since a predetermined external output signal is output to a common terminal when the initialization process is executed and when it is determined that a predetermined error has occurred, waste of signal lines for external output is reduced. can do. Accordingly, while preventing fraud is performed when power supply to the gaming machine, Ru can reduce the waste of signal lines for external output.
