1. Each PCB must be identifiable by a name/number and revision level, as applicable;
2. The top assembly revision level of the PCB must be identifiable; and

1.3.1  All assembled Player Terminal cabinets, including integral hardware components such as printers, Bill Validators, as well as any Associated Equipment must be certified by an inde- pendent test lab (acceptable to the Registrar) that specializes in, and is accredited for, immu- nity testing to satisfy the requirements listed below. The impact of any subsequent hardware modifications must be evaluated by an expert test lab.

1. The cGaming Equipment must exhibit total electro static discharge (ESD) immunity, with no disruptions in Game performance for:
   1. air discharge of up to ±15kV and
   2. contact mode up to ±8kV;
2. The cGaming Equipment must recover from ESD and complete any interrupted Play without loss or corruption of any stored or displayed information for air discharge of up to ±27kV; and
3. The cGaming Equipment must exhibit total immunity to electrical fast transients (EFT) for a discharge of up to 2.0 kV burst pulses repeatedly into the power line between the hot and neutral at any phase.

1.4  Door Security Switches

1.4.1  Each door of a Player Terminal and its associated auxiliary cabinets must be equipped with one or more Switches for security purposes. Security Switches must be wired directly to the Player Terminal, and capable of detecting and communicating the following conditions, as applicable:

5. Logic box door open/close; and
6. Topbox door open/close, if used to accommodate gaming logic.

1.4.2  Switches must be wired in a way that all door alarms can be reported under any operational conditions.

1.4.3  Disconnecting the wiring from a Switch or a malfunction of the Switch (e.g. magnet or opti- cal signal broken/missing) must result in notification of a “door open” condition.

1.4.4  In the attempt of illegal or forced entry, Player Terminal’s electronic security system must trigger an immediate alarm and log such event. The security system is comprised of hard- ware components including a security Switch and monitoring software.
