    USB Stick with Bug for Novomatic Slot Machines on CoolFire2 (S2Kernel) Boards

     

    Important Notice!

    This USB controller is a specialized device, not a standard USB Stick. Designed exclusively for Novomatic slot machines, it features advanced cloning protection and origin identification. Any attempts to clone or misuse the controller may render it inoperable, and no replacements will be provided in such cases.

    Included Components

    The kit comes with:

    • USB controller
    • Activation code generation program

    The bug allows specific bonus symbols to appear, resulting in free games (bonus rounds) after entering the activator. This feature works on various versions of S2Kernel, supporting models from V8.– and V9.–, as well as universal controllers for combined versions. The S2Kernel version installed on the slot can be identified during boot or in the main menu.

    Activator Code: Structure and Entry

    The activator code consists of two parts:

    1. Static Part: A sequence of 5-6 steps that remains constant for your USB drive.
    2. Dynamic Part: Another 5-6 steps generated by the accompanying software for your specific controller.

    There are two ways to enter the activator code:

    • LINE Buttons: Using HOLD1, HOLD2, HOLD3, HOLD4, and HOLD5 buttons without pressing “START.”
    • Double Buttons (RED/BLACK): Entering the code by selecting the specified color.

    The dynamic code is generated by inputting symbols from the slot monitor into the program. Once bonus games appear, the activator can be re-entered to trigger more free games. Supported games include Lucky Lady’s Charm, Chicago, Lord of the Ocean, Dolphin’s Pearl, Book of Ra, Gryphon’s Gold, and others.

    Bug Installation: Main or Backplane Board

    To activate the bug, the slot must be rebooted with the USB controller plugged in. The bug loads onto the CoolFire2 board or the backplane adapter (back panel). Once loaded via the backplane, the controller can be removed. The bug will stay active until the next reboot. Without the USB, the bug is cleared upon restart.

    Installation Steps

    1. Main Board Installation: Insert the controller into an available USB port on the main CF2 board. For the bug to remain active, the USB stick must remain connected while the slot is powered on. If removed, the bug will reset upon reboot.
    2. Backplane Installation: This option is safer and more convenient. Power off the slot machine, plug the USB controller into ports 3, 4, or 5 , and power back on. After booting, the controller can be removed without resetting the bug.
