How to Calibrate a Fantastic Prize Skill Cut Machine

Posted

Calibrating a skill cutting game is crucial to the success of the machine! In this blog we show you how to calibrate the UNIS Fantastic Prize and Fantastic Prize Mini to the prize that you are giving.

Please note that this process applies only to the new style Fantastic Prize and Fantastic Prize Mini machines by UNIS.

Each time you use a different prize, you should calibrate the machine so that it is set to cut the cord in the correct place.

  1. Open the bottom door and push the red open door button which will release the glass door to the main prize area.
  2. To carry out the calibration you need to hang your prize by tying the cord through a loop or such like on the prize. Next make a knotted loop to hang the cord from the hook passing it through the metal guides. 
  3. Once the prize is hanging correctly you can begin.
  4. Ensure that there are no knots in the cord near to the level of the cutting scissors.
  5. To calibrate the machine the main prize glass door must be shut.
  6. Remove the menu control pad which usually sits next to the cash box in the bottom cupboard.
  7. Press PROGRAMME for about 3 seconds
  8. Click R  to go through menu options.
  9. Click to ParaSet (parameter set) and confirm.
  10. Continuing clicking R (right) to go through options until you come to RunMax (option 8) and press confirm.
  11. This is the first part of the calibration and sets how far past the string we want the scissors to go.
  12. When it is at the correct position and the scissor blades have moved past the string, click to confirm.
  13. Next Click R to go right to Cut Pos (option 9) on the menu. Click confirm.
  14. Now it will automatically start to move the scissors blades forward until it cuts the string. This calibrates it for the particular prize on the string.
  15. You will now need to re-string the prize again. Please try to ensure that the cord length used is the same as that when you calibrated the machine, as different lengths of cord may make a difference to the calibration.
