RC600 Reel Controller

---

RC600 is used to control mechanical reel mechs from a PC platform over a USB interface.  This can be used for any type of unipolar stepper based reel mech including 48 and 200 step variants.

RC600 can control up to 6 reels simultaneously, including multiple reel types in a single configuration. Application interface is via e2c’s iSocket Gaming Device Manager, which provides a simple API for reel motion control, including GLI compliant error sensing required for class II/III markets.

GDM handles all the complexities of reel motion, with the RC600 providing the physical drive to the stepper motors. For example, the iSocket command to spin reel#1 for 3 seconds duration and stopping at symbol 5 would be:

ReelControl:Spin=1,D3000,5

The controller would execute this command and report the command has been executed correctly.

RC600 allows multiple reel ramps to be defined so customers can fine tune the dynamics of the reel motion.

Typical RC600 Reel Controller Implementation

This example shows the RC600 used to drive 6 x 200 step reel mechs. The gaming pc runs iSocket Gaming Device Manager (GDM).

• The gaming PC runs on iSocket Gaming Device Manager (GDM)
• Separate harnesses for reels 1-3 and 4-6
• RGB illumination control via e2c controller

This example uses e2c’s separate RGB illumination control PCB. This is mounted one ach reel mech and provides 7 bit colour depth for each symbol.

NB RC600 supports separate lamp illumination.
