INTRODUCTION
1 Introduction
The present document is a user manual created for the ‘Jackpot Manager’ application. The application is
designed to manage Jackpots (Normal Progressive, Mystery Progressive and Lucky Chance) within the
MyACP System. The application is intended for the employees responsible for the following operations:
• Creating new Jackpots (Normal Progressive, Mystery Progressive and Lucky Chance);
• Configuring Jackpot parameters;
• Setting Jackpot schedule;
• Defining groups of gaming machines for Jackpot drawing;
• Setting actions to be performed after Jackpot hit;
• Analysing Jackpot contributions;
• Generating reports.

TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
2 Terms and Definitions
Jackpot - Prize money accumulated at the expense of Operator, which, as a rule, unites
several gaming machines and is drawn within one (‘Local Jackpot’) or several
(‘Global Jackpot’) gaming locations. One cannot define the machine and fix the
date of Jackpot hit beforehand. The winning amount can be ‘Fixed’ (which can
also be a non-monetary prize) or ‘Progressive’. The fixed amount (or prize) is
defined by the Operator. The progressive amount increases constantly from the
minimum start amount adding a certain percentage of the player bet right up to
the Jackpot hit. Once a player wins a Jackpot, this Jackpot resets to a minimum
amount. The minimum amount is set at Operator’s will. The accumulation speed
depends on the number of gaming machines connected to the Jackpot, player
activity and Jackpot contributions.
Normal Progressive Jackpot

- A progressive Jackpot for which the hit moment is determined by the gaming
machine at the moment when the customer plays max bet and the maximum
combination is shown. The minimum start amount cannot be less than the
maximum winning amount on any of the machines connected to the Jackpot.
The Jackpot information is displayed on the informational signs.
Mystery Progressive Jackpot

- A progressive Jackpot for which the hit moment is determined by the System
randomly regardless of the winning combination. The start amount is set
according to the Operators will (in contrast to the Normal Progressive Jackpot).
It can be hit on any machine connected to the Jackpot. The Jackpot information
is displayed on the informational signs.
Lucky Chance Jackpot - A Jackpot type with fixed winning amount (monetary or non-monetary prize).
The number of possible prizes, number of drawings per day, start time and
duration are defined by the Operator. The Jackpot schedule is displayed on the
informational signs accompanied by sound signals. The Lucky Chance Jackpot
information replaces temporally the information on the Progressive Jackpot
displayed on the sign. Moreover, a Mystery Progressive Jackpot drawing can be
suspended during a Lucky Chance Jackpot drawing.
2
TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
Lucky Chance Progressive Jackpot

- A progressive Jackpot for which the hit moment is determined by the System
within the time interval set by the Operator. The Operator defines the amount of
money (Jackpot start amount) and sets the time interval within which the Jackpot
can be hit. The Jackpot schedule is displayed on the informational signs
accompanied by sound signals. The Lucky Chance Progressive Jackpot
information replaces temporally the information on the Progressive Jackpot
displayed on the sign. Moreover, a Mystery Progressive Jackpot drawing can be
suspended during a Lucky Chance Jackpot drawing.
Hot Jackpot - A feature which informs players via the sign indicators that the Jackpot is about
to hit, which allows the Operator to inspire players to bet more.

fingerprint scanner will be displayed. To access the application, follow these steps:
1) Enter your login into the ‘User’ field.
2) Put your finger on the fingerprint scanner for 3-4 seconds. After fingerprint authentication the main
application window will open automatically (for details see chapter 4.5 on page 21).

GETTING STARTED
INFORMATION
The fingerprint scanning substitutes user password. You can enter your password into the
‘Password’ field instead. These procedures are interchangeable.
If your fingerprint images were not enrolled to the database earlier, you need to enter your
password into the ‘Password’ field to access to the database. Further, you can enroll your
fingerprints to the database (for details see chapter 4.2.1 on page 14).
4.2.1 Adding Fingerprints to the Database
