Documentation required of on-line slot metering systems

Documentation required of on-line slot metering systems. Documentation generated by an on-line slot metering system indicating information by slot machine, by denomination and in total, shall be available through the system on a day, month, year-to-date basis and for at least a previous two-year cumulative basis. Documentation for periods in excess of the two-year period that must be maintained under record retention regulations may be maintained off-line in a manner approved by the Executive Director. The system shall be designed so that documentation may be created daily or on demand and includes, at a minimum: (a) For each document: 1. Document title; 2. Version number of the current system software; 3. Date or time period of activity; and 4. Date and time the document was generated. i. Note: Documents that compare metered amounts to actual amounts shall include a dollar variance and a percentage variance. The percentage variance is the dollar variance divided by the metered amount. (b) Slot machine performance including: 1. By machine: i. Denomination or an indication that the machine is a multidenominational machine; ii. Slot machine number and game type; iii. Coin in; iv. Metered or actual drop (system configurable); v. Actual jackpot payout slips issued; vi. Actual fill slips issued; vii. Win; viii. Theoretical hold percentage; ix. Actual hold percentage; x. Percentage variance (theoretical hold vs. actual hold); and xi. Projected dollar variance (i.e., coin in times the percentage variance). 2. By denomination and in total: i. Weighted average theoretical hold (i.e., floor par); ii. Combined actual hold percentage (all win divided by all coin in); iii. Percentage variance (floor par vs. combined actual hold percentage); and iv. Projected dollar variance (i.e., total coin in times the percentage variance). 1. Note 1: Floor pars are the sum of the theoretical hold percentages of all machines within a denomination weighted by coin in contribution. 2. Note 2: Drop, jackpot payouts, and win figures may need adjustment to determine the true slot machine performance. 3. Note 3: The system shall compute accurate theoretical hold percentages, based on coin-in contribution, for each multigame or multi- denomination/multi-game slot machine. 4. Note 4: The system shall compute accurate theoretical hold percentages for each gaming device which is considered a slot machine and which contains paytables with a difference in theoretical payback percentage which exceeds 4 percent between wager categories. (c) Meter drop vs. actual drop for each drop by machine and in total. (d) Meter attendant paid jackpots, cancelled credits, progressive payouts and external bonus payouts (in total) vs. actual attendant paid jackpots, cancelled credits, progressive payouts and external bonus payouts (in total). 1. Note: The system must produce a report (by machine and in total) that compares each type of attendant pay for those machines that have variances. (e) Meter machine paid and attendant paid external bonus payouts vs. external bonusing system machine paid and attendant paid external bonus payouts. (f) Meter voucher out vs. system payout receipts issued. (g) System payout receipts redeemed, by cashiering station, by shift. (h) System payout receipts issued, to include date issued, amount, sequence number and identification of gaming device where issued. (i) System payout receipt liabilities, by date issued and receipt sequence number. (j) Meter win vs. actual taxable win. 1. Note: “Meter win” equals “meter coin in” minus “meter coin out” minus “meter machine paid progressive payout” minus “meter machine paid external bonus payout” minus “total of meters accumulating attendant payouts” (excluding attendant paid cancelled credits). (k) Exception report. In the event data or parameters are changed, an exception report shall be produced to document: 1. Data or parameter altered; 2. Data or parameter value prior to alteration; 3. Data or parameter value after alteration; 4. Date and time of alteration; and 5. Identification of user that performed alteration. 6. By machine, a report of all required meter amounts read and recorded by the on- line slot system. (Adopted: 09/15/2004.)
