Frameworx Scorer Service Manual - Troubleshooting 1 Introduction The purpose of this troubleshooting guide is to provide fast solutions to prob- lems that a bowling center may experience. Using this guide prior to contacting Brunswick’s Customer Response Center will not only speed your troubleshoot- ing efforts, but will give Brunswick’s technicians valuable information should calling the Response Center be necessary. Before attempting to troubleshoot any situation, obtain as much information relating to the malfunction as possible. This information can be obtained from bowlers, control desk operators or by simple observation. Make sure that the information provided to you from other sources is accurate. Many times the person providing the information will have a different perspective of the equip- ment than that of a mechanic or may use different terms to describe the situation. This leads to misunderstanding as to what the defect is. Inaccurate or misinter- preted information will cause delays, add cost by replacing good parts and eventually lead to frustration. It is also important to not automatically assume that a board or cable is bad when a malfunction occurs. Many times an error occurs because of improper opera- tions, improper setup, or a onetime event that causes a failure. Cycling power (turning power off, then on) will usually correct these situations. If the failure seems to be caused by a bad circuit board, verify this by replacing the suspected board with one that is known to be functional. If the replacement board solves the problem, verify that the board removed is actually defective by installing it in another unit. Many times, failures are caused by a bad connection that is solved by replacing the board or by simply reseating it or checking it’s connectors. Numerous circuit boards have been sent to Brunswick for repair even though there was nothing wrong with them. Again, this leads to unneces- sary maintenance costs for the center. This guide contains flowcharts to help the mechanic quickly solve common problems that may be encountered. It is assumed that the troubleshooter is familiar with the components and terminology used in the Frameworx system and the basic operation of a multimeter and cable testers. For additional infor- mation about these topics, consult the Scoring System Service Manual (57-900351-000) or the instruction manual that was sent with the multimeter or tester.

Using this guide prior to contactingBrunswick’s Customer Response Center will not only speed your troubleshoot-ing efforts, but will give Brunswick’s technicians valuable information shouldcalling the Response Center be necessary.

Before attempting to troubleshoot any situation, obtain as much informationrelating to the malfunction as possible. This information can be obtained frombowlers, control desk operators or by simple observation. Make sure that theinformation provided to you from other sources is accurate. Many times theperson providing the information will have a different perspective of the equip-ment than that of a mechanic or may use different terms to describe the situation.This leads to misunderstanding as to what the defect is. Inaccurate or misinter-preted information will cause delays, add cost by replacing good parts andeventually lead to frustration.

It is also important to not automatically assume that a board or cable is bad whena malfunction occurs. Many times an error occurs because of improper opera-tions, improper setup, or a onetime event that causes a failure. Cycling power(turning power off, then on) will usually correct these situations.

If the failure seems to be caused by a bad circuit board, verify this by replacingthe suspected board with one that is known to be functional. If the replacementboard solves the problem, verify that the board removed is actually defective byinstalling it in another unit. Many times, failures are caused by a bad connectionthat is solved by replacing the board or by simply reseating it or checking it’sconnectors. Numerous circuit boards have been sent to Brunswick for repaireven though there was nothing wrong with them. Again, this leads to unneces-sary maintenance costs for the center.

RAM Memory (Random Access Memory) - A short-term storage area for information in a computer. Most com-puters have this type of memory install on small circuit boards call SIMMs. Also known as read-write memory; thememory used to execute application programs. See also memory.

Receiver PCB - A circuit board located on the lower access panel in regular monitors that adapts the incoming videoso that the Video processor PCB can use it. The PCB also determined when to turn the monitor on/off.

Relay - An electrically controlled switch.

Remote Video PCB - A circuit board located in the LGP that is controls the video going to the overhead monitors.

Scanner - An optical device that counts pins for a pair of pinsetters.

Secondary Scorer Console - The console in solutions 4 and 5 that contains limited circuitry for its own use. Onethat does not contain the LGP. See Primary Console.

SIMM (single in-line memory module) - A small circuit board that is designed to plug into special connectors onthe motherboard in a computer to provide the system with RAM memory. SIMMs come in various memory sizes(1Meg, 2Meg, etc.) and operating speeds (60ns, 70ns etc). Additionally they come in 30 pin and 72 pin styles.

Skyworx - A configuration of scorers that contains only overhead monitors. Formally known as Solution 1.

Solution 1 - The original name for the configuration now known as Skyworx.

Solution 3 - The original name for the configuration now known as Teamworx.

Solution 4 - The original name for the configuration now known as Laneworx.

Solution 5 - The original name for the configuration now known as either Powerworx or Touchworx.

Sweep Switch - See Take Data Switch.

Sweep up Switch - See Zero degree switch.

Take Data - An electronic signal, supplied by the automatic pinsetter switch cluster that causes the scanner to score.

Take Data Switch - A switch mounted to the pinsetter that causes the scanner to score. Also referred to as the 44/144 degree switch for Brunswick A/A2 machines and the Sweep Switch in AMF machines.

Teamworx - A configuration of scorers that contains Bowler Entry Stations (Mini consoles) and Overhead monitors.Formally known as Solution 3.

Touchworx - A configuration of scorers that contains consoles with monitors and overhead monitors. The consolesare equipped with touchscreens rather than traditional keyboards. Formally known as Solution 5 with touchscreens.

Transformer - A device that changes the level of an incoming voltage to a more desirable level. It can either in-crease the voltage (step up transformer) or decrease it (step down transformer).

TV-Only Monitor - A Monitor that is used to display only the VCR video. This monitor cannot display scorerconsole information.

TV-Only PCB - A circuit board located on the lower access panel in the TV-only monitors that adapts the TV/VCRvideo so that the Video processor can use it. This PCB also determined when the turn the monitor on/off.

Twisted-Pair Wire - Two insulated wires twisted together so that each wire faces the same amount of interferencefrom the environment.

Video Processor PCB - A circuit board located in the back of the monitor that adapts the video so that is can bedisplayed properly on the CRT. The Video Processor controls the Coils attached to the CRT and sends the video tothe Video Output PCB so it can be shown on the picture tube.

Zero Degree Switch - A switch located on the pinsetter that signals the scanner that the pinsetter has returned to itshome position. This signal allows the scanner to prepare for the next ball and accept another ball detect. In the AMFpinsetter this switch is referred to as the sweep up switch.
