PinScore LED Displays and Power Supplies
PinScore LED displays are powered from the game's 5V power supply and require no high voltage. PinScore LED displays use nearly half the power of competitive LED displays, making them safe to add to your game. PinScore displays have been tested in all games and are known to work reliably. In very rare cases, a game with a failing 5V power supply may not function once a PinScore display is installed. Other symptoms of a failing power supply include erratic game resets and erratic game behavior. In these situations, the game's power supply should be repaired or replaced prior to installing PinScore LED displays.
The plasma technology found in your machine's old displays required high voltage to energize the segments. The high-voltage circuits in pinball machines have high failure rates and are difficult to repair as the parts are obsolete.LED displays will function correctly even if your original game's power high-voltage power supply has failed. You can choose to disable your high-voltage supply after installing these displays by removing the appropriate fusing (see your machine's documentation). This will reduce the risk of electric shock when servicing the machine. If your machine requires a new power supply, PinScore power supplies designed explicitly for LED displays are available for many games.

Installation
CAUTION: This PS-8000-P Display System CANNOT be used with any original displays or display driver boards. Damage to both new and old boards will occur if the systems are mixed. Please remove all original boards and cables and install only these new boards and ribbon cables.
- Unplug the AC power from your pinball machine. Remove game backglass.
- Unscrew and remove all original glass displays, master driver board and all inter-board connecting cables.
- Mount all new boards in their respective locations. Use the fibre washers to help clip the board to the standoffs. You may slide the LED display boards horizontally to adjust their positions for alignment with your backglass windows. If not already mounted, place the foam light shields on their respective LED display boards.
- Connect the new cables. Observe correct polarity on all ribbon cables - the red striped wires on all ribbon cables go to PIN #1 (also labeled RED) on all boards.
- Double-check all connections, plug in the machine, and turn the game on. The LEDs will light up. Pressing the DIAGNOSTIC pushbutton on the Master Driver board will illuminate all segments of all displays. This indicates that all boards and cables in the PinScore System are operating correctly.
- Use the thumbwheel BRIGHTNESS control on the Master Driver & Display board to set your preferred illumination level.
Warranty
All PinScore display products are covered by a 5-year, transferable warranty. Should your display fail, contact your distributor for repair or replacement options. PinScore products will be repaired or replaced at the distributor’s discretion.
PinScore LED displays are a replacement product for aging pinball machines. While PinScore LED displays are carefully engineered to replace as many high-failure parts as possible and retain robustness, there remains a possibility that other parts of your machine may need to be repaired before your game will function correctly. These parts include but are not limited to your machine’s MPU, transformer, wiring, and fuses. The PinScore warranty does not cover damage caused by improper installation, faulty wiring, aftermarket game modifications, and incorrect aftermarket repairs.
