Referring now to Figure 3, there is shown a schematic diagram illustrating the components of a system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
Figure 3 is a schematic diagram that depicts a system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
Figure 3 includes a first gaming system 300 typically comprising a plurality of gaming machines each comprising a player tracking module PTM. The first gaming system 300 is an existing or so called "legacy" system which operates in conjunction with a casino management system 302.
The gaming system 300 and the casino management system communicate 302 via a proprietary protocol. The casino management system 302 is required to perform various tasks necessary for the correct and efficient operation of each of the gaming machines in the gaming system. The tasks may include, but are not limited to, the management of player tracking, the administration of bonus rewards, the payment of prizes and the collection and management of meter information.
A second gaming system 304 installed in parallel with the first gaming system 300 is a client-server based gaming system 304 comprising a central database DB, one or more application servers AS and a plurality of client gaming machines 306 (only one of which is shown in Figure 3 for the sake of clarity).
The client gaming machines 306 of the second gaming system are each provided with a client software module 00 9 C 308, also termed an interactive video terminal (IVT) which interacts with the application server AS and a player via an input/output interface (not shown). The input/output 00 interface may be, in one embodiment, a touch screen located on a "poker machine", or other gaming device.
However, it will be understood that any suitable interface C may be provided to allow for player interaction with the M1 gaming system.
c- The gaming machines 306 are also each provided with a
OO
S 10 player tracking module PTM 310 adapted to communicate with the casino management system via the above mentioned proprietary protocol.
Various meters are managed centrally in the second gaming system 304. Internal communication interface modules are provided in the gaming machines 306 in order to communicate the meter information to the casino management system 302. The internal communication modules may also be used to exchange other information between the player tracking module 310 and the client software 308 (IVT). The "other" information may include, for example, information pertaining to the amount of money inserted into the gaming machine, or voucher identification indicia provided to the gaming machine.
The internal communication interface modules comprise a hardware interface module HWIM 314 that provides an abstraction layer between drivers for hardware units and the other interface modules.
A meter integration module 316 ("GamPro module") is adapted to implement the coordination of meters towards the legacy system such that correct meters information and, correct other information is reported to the casino management system 302 in the correct format. The player tracking module PTM 310 communicates internally (i.e.
within the gaming machine) with a first communication protocol (termed SAS) whereas the meter integration module 316 communicates with a second protocol (termed GamPro).
A SAS protocol converter SPC2 312 is provided to 00 10 O convert the communication between the two mentioned protocols and to ensure a timely response to the player tracking module 310.
00 The gaming machines 306 are provided with a static random access memory (SRAM) module 318 used for various cache operations. For example, the SRAM module may be utilised to keep data that has been created in the client Spart of the gaming machine and that is to be communicated (1 to the server side of the gaming system 304. The data may 00 subsequently be wiped from the SRAM module 318 once it is confirmed that the data has been received and stored in the server side.
In the embodiment described herein, the SRAM is also used to cache the information that is communicated to and from the player tracking module, that the information has been to keep the data persistent until it has been confirmed received on the other side of the internal communication interface modules.
The meters values are thus communicated along the communication path 320 to the casino management system 302 in the following sequence (and with reference to Figure 4): 1. The meters are collected and managed centrally in the client-server system (Step 400) 2. The meters are then communicated to the meter integration module 316 (GamPro module) (Step 402) where the meters are processed for integration with the meter management of the casino management system (Step 404) 3. The meters are cached in the SRAM 318 (Step 406).
4. The processed meters are communicated from the meter integration module 316 (GamPro module) to the player tracking module PTM 310 via the hardware interface module HWIM 314 and the SAS protocol converter (Step 408) The meters are communicated to the casino management system 302 from the player tracking module PTM 310 via the proprietary protocol (Step 410).
Thus, the meter integration module and the protocol 00 11 converter form part of a meter management system.
The processed and protocol converted meters may be communicated to the player tracking module PTM 310 as 00 individual meter values or in a meter report. The meter values or the meter report may be sent after each meter updating cycle in the client-server system, according to a meter reporting schedule at regular defined time intervals), on receipt of a request from the gaming 00 management system or when needed for offline purposes.
