Gaming machine

Abstract

To provide a gaming machine capable of efficiently transmitting information. [Solution] The 0th to 5th identification signals are output from the value-side MPU 142 to the main-side MPU 72 using the 0th to 5th identification signal lines. Furthermore, when the main-side MPU 72 is not receiving HI-level 3rd and 4th identification signals, the value-number status command transmission process is executed based on the fact that data different from the current 3rd to 5th identification signal corresponding data is stored in the main-side value-number status area. Even if the state of the 0th to 2nd identification signals received by the main-side MPU 72 changes, the value-number status command transmission process is not executed if the state of the 3rd to 5th identification signals received by the main-side MPU 72 does not change.

Claims
