Controller platform
pinmame.system11

PinMAME already reports logical active state. Do not invert again in the table — normally-closed is a physical fact recorded per switch, not a runtime transform.

Recreation notes

Working knowledge that has no schema field yet — edition differences, tuning values, pitfalls.

Coverage
partial - source-derived recreation knowledge requiring validation

Overview

Legacy evidence identifies this candidate as Williams (1988). The information below is preserved for recreation work but is not automatically treated as validated physical-machine fact.

Playfield devices

Switch, lamp/GI, and controlled-device candidates are in the adjacent machine definition. Source-specific implementation notes are retained below.

Custom mechanisms

No custom mechanism conclusion has been validated. Manuals, schematics, PinMAME source, and gameplay evidence still need to be checked.

Ball-state transitions

Ball paths, trough ordering, locks, kickouts, and causal transitions have not yet been normalized. Relevant source notes follow under Evidence notes.

Controller interactions

Controller callbacks and bindings are candidate evidence only until reconciled against PinMAME and physical documentation.

Service and setup information

Unknown; locate operator/service documentation.

Timing and tuning observations

Source timing values may describe a particular VPX implementation rather than physical hardware and require review.

Recreation guidance

Do not treat this partial definition as a complete authoring specification. Resolve every coverage requirement and conflict before promotion.

  • games/jokerz.json#/_source/confidence_notes: High confidence on switches/coils from SolCallback and sw*_Hit handlers. Uses S11.VBS (System 11). Manual trough implementation (sw11/12/13 with UpdateTrough cascade, not cvpmTrough). Drain is sw10 (pulsed). Ball release is solenoid 2 (kicks from sw11). Solenoid 10 is GI relay (inverted logic in SolGi — enabled=off, disabled=on). Ramp motor solenoid 15 drives center ramp up/down with position switches 15/16. Card wheel mechanism uses cvpmMyMech. Flipper solenoid numbers (sLRFlipper=46, sLLFlipper=48) come from core.vbs S11 constants. swTilt=67 from S11.VBS framework. Flasher solenoids (9,11,22,25-32) use Lampz indices 109-132 for lamp state. Lamp indices 1-64 from Lampz.MassAssign. Lamp 0 is GI (non-matrix, solenoid-driven via sol 10).

Unresolved questions

  • Is the I/O enumeration complete for every supported physical/controller variant?
  • Which inferred VPX behaviors reflect real hardware, and which are table-script conveniences?
  • Are all mechanism home states, sensors, motion constraints, and ball interactions documented?

Evidence

Every claim above traces to one of these. When they disagree: a known-working VPX script wins on controller addresses and causality, the manual wins on wiring and construction, pinned PinMAME wins on emulator routing and display layout.
