[0037] When the desired number is selected, press any die control button 3 to send a third control signal to the main control unit. After receiving the third control signal, the main control unit confirms the currently selected gear.

[0038] The gear confirmation module is implemented based on the program function module; the program function module is used to start timing when the trigger condition is met, and to generate a third control signal when the timing duration reaches the set duration.

[0039] The triggering conditions can be: no second switching command generated by the main control unit is detected, a specific command generated by the main control unit is detected, or the timing starts when entering the gear selection mode and reaches the preset waiting time.

[0040] The control circuit board also includes a dice control unit, which includes a dice control button 3 located on the main panel 1; the gear confirmation module is implemented based on the dice control button 3.

[0041] Among them, the dice control button 3 is used to generate a fourth control signal to be sent to the main control unit; when the main control unit receives the fourth control signal, it generates a first throwing command for throwing the dice.

[0042] The control circuit board also includes a lifting control unit, which includes a lifting control button 4 located on the main panel 1.

[0043] Among them, the lifting control button 4 is used to generate a fifth control signal and a sixth control signal to be sent to the main control unit; when the main control unit receives the fifth control signal, it generates a first lifting command to raise the panel body 1; when the main control unit receives the sixth control signal, it generates a second lifting command to lower the panel body 1.

[0044] Among them, there are 4 dice control buttons 3.

[0045] There are two lifting control buttons 4, which are symmetrically distributed between two pairs of adjacent dice control buttons 3.
