Allteksystems Mission:

 

Hello and welcome to the wonderful world of owning, repairing, and enjoying vintage coin-op pinball machines. We at Allteksystems are fellow pinball fans; we have our own pinball game collections. We also operate vintage pinball games, which is one of the reasons we decided to redesign the original boards in vintage coin-op games. We found that the original boards were just not that reliable due to their age and design limitations. We wanted to bring these vintage games into the 21st century without sacrificing the original game play. We decided to design replacement boards that would enhance the reliability, provide plug and play capabilities, enhance diagnostics, and provide the best customer service capable. We believe we have accomplished this by helping thousands of customers get their machines up and running and we are proud of this. We love pinball and we know that in order to keep pinball alive it’s all about keeping machines running so that the next generation can enjoy the machines as we do. We enjoy the game play, the art, the themes, the electronics, and everything that is involved in making a machine. We want the machines to continue running and we found it paramount to supply new reliable electronics, and the needed customer support.. Many of our customers have no electronic experience at all and are able to get there machines up and running.

 

Now we are introducing our latest product, a replacement Solenoid Driver (SD) board for vintage Bally/Stern games. We wanted a rock solid design that doesn’t require service calls and provide enhanced diagnostics. The original hardware just wasn’t up to the task. We decided to redesign using modern components and enhanced circuitry to provide automated protection, enhanced diagnostics, and improved functionality.

 

Our new SD board provides all these features. It actually improves the play on vintage games. It incorporates MOSFET drivers that actually improve the performance of the game. The solenoids have a snappier action due to the lower resistance of the MOSFET. This makes the game play like new! We didn’t stop there, we added over current protection on the solenoids, so that if the board is plugged into a game with shorted coils the LED indicators indicate which coil is shorted. That was not enough; we added protection for defective MPU boards also, so that if the MPU tells the SD board to turn on a coil for to long the circuit is disabled to prevent coil burn out. Our new SD board also includes LED indicators to help diagnose any SD related problems.  Also the heat generated and wasted by the old style SD board is gone. This significantly eliminates wasted power, which lightens the load on the games power supply circuitry; also everything runs cooler in the back box. Less heat = longevity in the world of electronics. The switching power supply is a technology not economically viable when the games original manufactured, but now you can enjoy the benefits of this modern technology in your vintage pinball game. Our exclusive design incorporates all the latest technology available and is sure to enhance your pinball machine.
