When the Ultra LX Series reader is installed in a rotated position other than the default upright one, this parameter should be defined accordingly so the screen display is readable to users. You can define it by selecting from the 4 options: 0 degree, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees.

Note:

Please note that the screen rotates in an anticlockwise manner.

Low Power Mode (Shallow) & Low Power Timeout

This set of features apply to Ultra LX Series and Ultra VX Series reader.

You can decide whether to enable the low power mode by selecting “Enable” or “Disable”. When you enable this function, the “Low Power Timeout” field will be displayed. Set the value for the timeout field, and the unit is second. When it times out, the reader’s screen will dim a little bit.

Color Effect

Note:

If the machine you are configuring is categorized to a machine category that is already defined with Color Effect via Machine Category, the corresponding configurations will auto-populate to this profile and they are not editable here.

With Color Effect, users can define the color, effect and brightness of the External LED Kit and Reader Screen Border (VX/LX). There are four options in the drop-down menu of color effect: External LED Kit, Reader Screen Border (VX/LX), BOTH LED+SCREEN BORDER (VX/LX) and None.

• External LED Kit allows the Amusement vendors to configure the color, effects, and brightness of the kit case. As its name suggests, it requires an external LED kit to achieve this function. This feature applies to Elevate Card Select, Ultra LX Series and Ultra VXT Series reader.

• Reader Screen Border (VX/LX) allows the vendors to add color and effects to the border of the reader screen. It doesn’t require any external kit in comparison with External LED Kit. This feature applies to Ultra LX Series and Ultra VXT Series reader.

  Note:

  This feature is not supported for Elevate Card Select. Therefore, if you’re configuring Elevate Card Select but select this feature by mistake in the drop-down menu of color effect, the following configurations (color, effect, and brightness) still serve for its external LED kit.

• BOTH LED+SCREEN BORDER (VX/LX) allows to configure the color effects of both the reader screen border and the external LED kit equipped. On the idle screen, both the reader screen border and LED kit presents the color effect applied at the same time and on the other screens, the LED kit continues to work but the reader screen border will stop showing any color effect.

  Note:

  If this feature is mistakenly configured for ELEVATE CARD SELECT readers, the color effects defined will still apply to its external LED kit

• None is the default option of this feature. When it is selected, you can leave all followed fields about Color, Effect and Brightness blank.

When External LED Kit or Reader Screen Border (VX/LX) is selected, you should give its further configuration of Color, Effect and Brightness for Regular, Special or Freeplay mode as you desire. You are provided with 16 options (see color panel below) for color selection, 4 options (Steady, Chase, Marquee, Rainbow) for effect and 4 options (100%, 75%, 50%, 25%) for brightness.

Differences of four effect patterns can be found in color and lighting which are elaborated and visualized as below for your reference.

• Steady: One color of light is always on.

• Chase: It begins with all lights off. Each light will be turned on one by one until a group of certain size are lit. As each new light at the leading edge is lit, a light from the tailing edge will be turned off. This continues until the leading light position moves back to the first position with which the group of lit lights continues around the screen. The chasing direction moves clockwise.

• Marquee: A group of three lights blinks in a way of full brightness, half brightness and no brightness. The moving direction is clockwise.

• Rainbow: This effect displays on the external LED kit and reader’s screen border with all the colors cycling around.

When Reader Screen Border (VX/LX) is selected, its configuration on Brightness is fixed.

Once there is a user action, the reader will exit the idle screen with its effects off and the light effects during the transaction process will adhere to fixed patterns. You can refer to the table below for descriptions of the fixed color patterns.
