Abstract
Claims
[Claim 1] A main control means capable of performing control related to the game, A first control means connected to the main control means, The system comprises a second control means capable of transmitting data to the first control means, The first control means is, A performance control means capable of performing performance control based on commands from the main control means, A display control means capable of controlling the display of an image on a display device based on a request from the aforementioned performance control means, A communication setting means capable of setting up communication with the second control means, A serial communication means capable of performing serial communication with the second control means, in which communication data is composed of units of characters, An initialization processing means capable of performing initialization processing when power is turned on, It has an error detection processing means capable of detecting errors, The second control means can transmit the next character after transmitting one character, after a character-to-character margin equivalent to a predetermined time or longer has elapsed. The aforementioned communication setting means is As a setting related to communication with the second control means, it is possible to make settings in the serial communication means, When the power is turned on, before setting up communication with the second control means, it is possible to wait for a predetermined time that is longer than the time required for communication of one character, and to perform the setting while not receiving data transmitted from the second control means. The initialization processing means is capable of activating the error detection processing means, The error detection processing means is A main error detection processing means capable of detecting an abnormality in the main control means based on a command transmitted from the main control means, The system includes a sub-error detection processing means capable of detecting when an abnormality occurs with respect to the first control means, The main error detection processing means can detect the occurrence of an abnormality by receiving an error command transmitted from the main control means. The sub-error detection processing means is capable of detecting that an abnormality has occurred in the first control means and / or the second control means. The error detection processing means is capable of performing detection by the main error detection processing means and detection by the sub-error detection processing means when the display control means is in operation. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
