Introduction 

In order to bring the AMI Entertainment Network to each location, an Internet 
connection must be installed at each location.  The software will allow either 

Broadband or Dial-Up connections. 

  

Prior to jukebox installation, the operator will need to coordinate with the target 

establishment to select an optimum location for the line, and to place an order 

with the Internet provider that services that area. 
 

Note: 

If you are using a dial-up connection, you will need a modem kit for your 

jukebox.  Contact your local distributor for information on dial-up connectivity 

kits for Digital Jukeboxes.

Where to Install the Designated Line and Router 
 

With any Internet installation, additional equipment will have to be installed in the location.  For a cable or DSL 

installation there will be a cable or DSL modem.  For a satellite installation there will be a satellite receiver.  This 

equipment should be placed in a secure area at the site.  Preferably the modem/receiver would NOT be installed 

inside the jukebox. 

Internet Wiring 
The Internet line can be installed in any of the following: 

 

• an indoor telephone or utility closet (preferably on the same floor as the Jukebox) 

 

• closet or office where other sound equipment is located 

 

• behind the bar 

 

• next to a utility switch box in a back room 

DO NOT install the line: 

 

• behind the old jukebox or behind any wall-mounted jukebox 

 

• in a place where it is extremely difficult to route or replace a cable 

 

• in a high-traffic area where the Internet cable could be accidentally or maliciously disconnected 

Router 
In order to make the installation process as easy and smooth as possible for the Operator, a router is included 

with your jukebox.  Rowe’s full digital jukeboxes are shipped with a D-Link wireless router. 
The router can be relocated: 

 

• next to the designated line 

 

•  next to other sound equipment in a closet, office, or behind the bar (avoid area where liquids might be  

 

   spilled!) 

 

•  any location close to and between the Jukebox and the Internet connection 

DO NOT install the router: 

 

•  where customers have access to it 

 

•  in an area where electronic components could be damaged 

 

•  far from and/or with physical obstacles between it and the jukebox (on another floor, through doorways 

 

  with closed doors, etc.) 

Router/Modem Power 
Each AMI-powered jukebox is equipped with a special power outlet designed to supply 120VAC for the router and 

your modem.  The outlet is controlled by the computer core assembly so that in the event the Internet 
connection is lost, it can automatically cycle the power off and back on in an effort to allow those devices to re-

establish the Internet connection. 

 

This outlet should be used to supply the router and, if possible, the modem itself.  This provides the maximum 

flexibility and capability with respect to keeping your jukebox on-line at all times. 

 
If you decide to power the site’s cable/DSL modem via this outlet, you will need a Liberator or Y-Power cord to 

create an additional power outlet.  To make such a connection, disconnect the routers power supply from its 

factory position, plug the Liberator cord into the outlet and then connect the router and cable/DSL modem power 

cords into the 2 newly-created outlets.

The Wireless Router 
 

Introduction 
The D-Link Router supplied with your jukebox provides two major functions.  It is the connecting hub for the 

network in the location and it distributes the Internet from the modem to the jukebox and other devices.  The 

connections between the router and the jukebox and other broadband equipment will be the same for all types of 
Internet technology. 

 

The D-Link router also includes wireless capability.  A wireless configuration has been preset into the router 

before it was installed in the jukebox. The preset configuration will allow a Megatouch countertop game machine 

to find and connect to the Internet without any configuration changes to the D-Link router. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Front of D-Link Router 

 
1.  Power Light – A solid light indicates connection to the power supply. 

2.  Status Light – A blinking light indicates the router is ready 

3.  WAN Light – A solid light indicates connection on the WAN port (connection to the Internet).  This LED blinks 

during data transmission. 

4.  WLAN Light – A solid light indicates the wireless segment is ready. This LED blinks during wireless data 

transmission. 

5.  Local Network Lights (LAN ports 1-4) – A solid light indicates a connection to an Ethernet-enabled device (the 

jukebox).  The LED flickers when the corresponding port is sending or receiving data. 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 
 

 

Back of D-Link Router 

 

1. Wireless 

Antenna 

2.  Local Network Ports (1-4) – LAN port sockets (CAT5 Ethernet RJ-45 Cable). Connect the jukebox to one of 

these ports. 

3.  WAN port – This is where you will connect the Ethernet cable from the cable or DSL modem. 

4.  Power Input – Connect one end of the included power adapter into the power port and the other end into a 

power outlet. 

5.  Hardware Reset – Used to restore the router to the D-Link factory default settings. 

(Note: Resetting the router will erase the preset AMI configuration.  At that point Megatouch countertop 
games will no longer connect automatically.)

Programming the Wireless Router 

Introduction 
The broadband installer should have left a document describing specific information required to connect to the 

Internet Service Provider (ISP).  This document may have included a User Name and Password and/or several IP 

addresses.  An IP address is a number used to identify an address on the Internet.  This information will be used 

to program the router. 
 

The software in the jukebox provides access to the router setup screens so a laptop or other computer is not 

required for setting up the router. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Router Setup Screen 

 

Description 
Be sure the broadband equipment and the router are powered up and the proper status LEDs on all equipment 

are lit.  Power up the jukebox.  The first time you turn on the jukebox with a new hard drive, you will see the 

Local Music Configuration screen and be prompted to choose one of the available lists.  See the “Local Music 

Configuration” section for more information.  After selecting a local music configuration, the User Interface will 

appear.  Open the jukebox and press the SERVICE button on the computer core to enter the Service Mode.  
Touch the Hardware Setup button and then touch Router Setup.  The screen should look like the figure 

above.  If you get a LOGIN screen, touch the text box next to User Name, type in “admin” and then touch the 

Log In button (leave the Password field blank).  If you get a “Page Not Found” error screen, see section 5 of 

your service manual for troubleshooting suggestions. 

 
To change a value in the router, first touch the text box on the router setup view that is to be changed.  This sets 

the focus to that text box.  Touch keys on the keyboard displayed at the bottom of the screen to enter new data. 

 

Note 

For security purposes, several of the router configuration pages have been disabled including the Setup Wizard 

and the HELP page.  Full access to all router configuration pages is still available by using a laptop computer or 
other computer device.  If the router is configured using a different computer and the Administrator password or 

the default IP address of the router is changed, you will no longer be able to use the jukebox software to access 

and program the router.

Introduction 

The following is a reference guide for the operator to navigate the User Interface 

(UI) on the jukebox. It is important that the operator feels comfortable with all 

of the UI features.  First, the operator needs to know how to answer questions 

about how to use the jukebox.  Second, the operator needs to know what a 

normal UI looks like in order to troubleshoot and understand when specific 

features are available or not.

Operating the Jukebox 
 
Use this reference guide to navigate the jukebox. 
 

Attract Loop 

This moving image file may consist of advertisements, promotions, and graphic images; and appears when no 

one has touched the touch screen for a few minutes. Simply touch the screen to begin using the system. The 

attract loop will automatically disappear. 

 
Getting Started 

Touch any part of the screen to begin viewing music selections. 

 

Paying to Use the System 

The jukebox pricing appears on the screen.  Insert bills into the bill acceptor or coins into the coin slot to receive 

credits.  Total credits are based on money inserted.  Credits will appear in the lower left corner of the screen.  
Credits will not accumulate until the amount of money inserted reaches one of the pricing levels displayed in the 

Pricing list. 

 

 

Using the System 
 

AMI Entertainment Network Connection 

There will be periods of time where the jukebox cannot connect to the AMI Entertainment Network. This may be 

due to outages of the location’s Internet connection, maintenance outages of the AMI Entertainment servers or 

some other reason. Even though the jukebox is not connected to the AMI Entertainment Network, music can still 

be selected and played. 
 

If the connection to the AMI Entertainment Network is down for whatever reason, the User Interface will display 

a faded color ring around the “ami” logo in the upper-left side of the screen.  

 

Making a Selection 
The jukebox software supports multiple templates and skins.  A template is the actual layout of the images and 

control buttons on the User Interface (UI).  A skin is a variation in color and control shape for a specific template. 

 

From time to time a software update will contain a new template and/or skin.  The new template may provide 

new features, changed or enhanced features, and may add or remove some control buttons.

most popular music by Artist, Genre, or Song.  

To browse through the top 40 artists or top 40 

songs, use the arrow(s) at the bottom of that 

particular column.  The center column allows 

customers to select the categories of all of the 
top 40 music on that jukebox, all of the top 40 

music on the AMI music network, or search 

the top 40 music by a specific genre.  Touch a 

song  to  play  it,  or  touch  an  artist  to  display 

their Artist Page. 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 
The  Artist Page displays all of the available 

albums and songs for a particular artist. 
From this screen, customers can choose to 

browse the artist’s available songs in order of 

popularity (from most to least popular), in 

alphabetical order, or by album.  The available 
albums are shown in the left column.  To view 

the available songs on each album, touch one 

of the albums and the album’s songs will be 

displayed to the right.  Use the arrows below 

the album list or below the song list to view 
more of the albums/songs (if applicable). 
The Artist Page also gives customers the 

option to play all of their credits on the songs 

that are currently displayed by touching the 

“Play All Credits” button.  This option can be 

selected while “All Songs by Popularity”, “All 
Songs by Alphabetical”, or any individual 

album is displayed on the screen.

The User Interface screen is used to change the 
look and functionality of the User Interface, i.e. the 
screens that customers use to select and play

Interface.  With this option enabled, customers can change the language by touching the Help button on the User 
Interface, and then touching the flag representing the desired language. 

•  Basic Navigation – When enabled, this option limits the navigation by showing only the Search and 1-Credit Plays.  This

The Default Screen Language sets the default language of the User Interface.  Touch the arrow button to the right of the 
option to display a drop-down menu of languages.  Touch a language to select it. 
 
The Timers tab allows you to set the Patron UI and Service Mode Timeouts.  The Patron UI 

Timeout determines the UI 

reset time, which is the number of seconds between the last touch on the UI and the start of the attract clips.  

The Service Mode Timeout determines the time the jukebox will remain in the Service Mode, since the last 

screen touch, before automatically switching back to the User Interface. 

 
The  Belt Settings  tab  (available  on  jukeboxes  with  32”  LCDs  only)  allows  you  to 
choose display options for the midsection of the monitor (between the video attract 
loop and the jukebox UI).  Touch the box in front of the each option to turn the option 
on or off.  (

“On” is represented by a check mark in the box.)  Select multiple options if 

you wish the jukebox to cycle through each of the options. 
 
Display New Albums displays a random newly-added album. 
Display Spotlight Albums displays a random album from the AMI Spotlight category. 
The Consecutive Display Items sets the number of albums which will show before 
switching to another belt feature. 
 

Flickr Settings: This feature allows you to upload your own photos to the Flickr Web site and have the jukebox display your 
images in a slide show format.  This can be used to display pictures of staff, leagues, contest winners, sponsored teams, etc.  
Follow instructions on the site (www.flickr.com) and create a “photo set” for a slide show. 
User Name is the user name you have selected to use for your Flickr account. 
Set Name is the name you chose on Flickr for the particular Flickr photo set (group of photos) you want to display. 

NOTE: You must enter The User and Set Names. The boxes next to the User and Set names will display a green check if those 

Flickr accounts exist or a red X if they can’t be found.  If an X appears, make sure you have entered the names correctly. 

 
Slideshow Title is the title that will display on the jukebox before your slide show 
begins. 
Slideshow Subtitle is the subtitle that will display on the jukebox under your Title. 
 

(Locations and operators are responsible for setting up and managing their own Flickr 

account and photos at www.flickr.com. Advertising of any kind is not permitted.)

2.5  Enable/Extend Features 

 
The  Enable/Extend Features screen is used to 
enter specific codes provided by AMI Entertainment 
to change, enable, and extend special features 
available for the jukebox. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This screen’s primary uses are to enter hard drive trigger codes that allow new hard drives to connect to AMI Entertainment’s 
servers, and to enter feature codes that extend the time a jukebox can be operated without connection to the servers.  This 
screen will also indicate how many days the jukebox has left before it will go out of service for failure to connect to the 
servers.  Contact an AMI Entertainment Customer Service representative for appropriate feature codes. 
 
Note: A feature code is only valid on the day it is generated.  When a code is accepted, a text message will appear indicating 
you’ve entered a valid code.  If it’s not accepted, it will indicate that you’ve entered an invalid code.

2.6.3 Load Software 
 
The  Load Software screen provides access to 
load a new version of software from a USB thumb 
drive or a CD-ROM (if your jukebox has a CD-ROM 
drive).  It also provides access to load drivers 
(though driver installation should only be 
performed on the recommendation of customer 
service). 
 
 
For USB thumb drive installation:  Connect your 
thumb drive to one of the USB ports on the 
computer core assembly, or to the USB adapter 
cable (if provided). 
 
For CD-ROM installation:  Load the CD into the CD-
ROM drive. 
 
If no files are detected, the screen at the right will 
appear.  Touch Refresh List to update the list. 
 
 
 
 
When a disc or USB thumb drive containing 
software installers is inserted into the jukebox, the 
installers (named full-update[XX].cab) will appear 
on this screen.  The files can then be installed from 
this screen by touching the Install button next to 
the file you wish to install. 
 
Note: The jukebox will display all filenames that 
are installable.  This does not imply that all files 
listed are actual software updates.  Ensure the file 
you are trying to install is an actual software 
update file. 
 
 
If you want to install drivers, touch the Drivers tab 
at the top of the Load Software screen.  Because 
driver installation can negatively affect the jukebox 
software, only install drivers on the advice of 
customer service. 
 
 
 
To return to the Advanced Administration page, touch the Back button.

2.6.4  Do Not Disturb 
 
The  Do Not Disturb screen is designed to 
minimize interruptions to the jukebox during 
normally busy times. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The jukebox is subject to periodic software updates.  Although these updates are very infrequent (maybe once every two or 
three months), when they do occur, the Selection Screen is temporarily unavailable to the customer.  To minimize this kind of 
interruption, specific times can be set aside where the jukebox will not initiate these actions. 
 
The schedule can be customized to block up to 14 hours per day.  The jukebox will then be allowed to perform its required 
processes during the remaining 10 hours. 
 
Up to two separate blocks of Do Not Disturb time can be enabled per day.  To enable either the Lunch or the Night Schedule, 
touch the boxes next to Lunch Schedule or Night Schedule to put a check in the box. 
 
Touch the text boxes next to Start and End to bring up a pop-up box where you can make 
changes using the + and  symbols above and below the time.  Select either AM or PM by 
touching the circle next to the one you want.  After making changes to the time, touch Update to 
enable your changes, or Cancel if you wish to undo your changes. 
 
Next, touch the boxes to put a check next to the days of the week you want to apply these 
settings to.  If there are any days you do not want included, make sure the box next to the day is 
unchecked. 
 
 
 
Touch the Save button to save your changes and return to the Advanced Administration page.

to configure a specific time when the jukebox will 
automatically reboot. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The option allows you to select a once daily reboot at a specific time, or a once weekly reboot on a specific day at a specific 
time.  If the jukebox is powered down on a nightly basis, there is no need to schedule an automatic reboot.  However, if the 
jukebox is powered on all of the time, a once-a-week reboot is recommended. 
 
To enable the automatic reboot, ensure that the check box next to “Automatically Reboot At ___” is checked.  If the check 
box is unchecked, the option will be disabled and the jukebox will not automatically reboot. 
 
Touch the time text box and use the + and  symbols above the time to set the time of day for the 
reboot to occur.  Then touch the circle next to AM or PM, and touch Update to save your changes. 
 
Select the days you want your settings to apply to by touching the box next to the corresponding day.  
Selected days will have a check in the box next to the day.  To remove the check, touch the check 
again.  When finished, touch Update

provides settings for server connection parameters 
on broadband-connected jukeboxes. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If the jukebox has a modem installed, a choice of either Broadband or Dial-Up Server Connection type is displayed.  If a 
modem is not installed, the Dial-Up button will not be displayed.  See the next page for a description of dial-up configuration 
options. 
 
Enter server settings by touching the text box for Server URL and Agent Name separately. A keyboard pops up to enter the 
proper data for each field as it is selected.  Touch Update on the keyboard to set the new text into the text box, or Cancel to 
close the keyboard without changing anything. 
 
Next, touch the Test Connection button to perform a quick test confirming the jukebox can connect to AMI’s server 
(“Server Found”), and authenticate a connection with AMI’s server (“Connected”).  If the connection is successful, you will 
see “Yes” next to “Server Found” and “Connected”.  If the connection fails, you will see “No”.  If the connection fails, check 
the settings on the Network Information screen (Diagnostics –> Network Information).  This screen will allow you to check 
the IP Configuration and run LAN and WAN tests.

The  Local Music Configuration screen allows 
you to change the Local Albums (1-Credit Plays) for 
the jukebox.  The first time you turn on a jukebox 
with a new hard drive, this screen will appear, 
prompting a local music selection. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This page contains a list of the available Local Music Configurations that can be installed on this jukebox.  At the top of the list

are displayed, followed by any lists saved in the past. 
 
Touch the View button to display a dialog box listing all of the albums in the selected list.  Some albums may appear grayed 
out; this means that some or all of the songs in the album are not currently stored on this jukebox.  If a list with grayed 
albums is installed, the grayed albums will start being downloaded to the jukebox within 24 hours (as long as the jukebox is 
connected).  If the jukebox becomes disconnected, any songs not yet downloaded will be unavailable to patrons.

The phrase “Off The Top” can also be changed.  Touch the text box for a pop-up keyboard.  Use the Clear button to clear the 
current text.  Change the text using the keyboard and touch Update to save it. 
 
Checking the Hide Cumulative Totals Column option will cause this column to be hidden on the Money Collection screen. 
 
Combine Off the Top with AMI Allowance – When enabled, amounts deducted for AMI Allowance and Off the Top are 
combined into one amount and displayed as an “Off the Top” amount. 
 
Hide Selector Values – When enabled, the collection screen will not show or include revenue for jukebox music selections 
made from Remote Selectors (countertop game machines). 
 
Apply Off The Top To Gross – When enabled, the “Off-The-Top” percentage is calculated based on gross cashbox (Total 
Deposits).  When disabled, the “Off-The-Top” percentage will be calculated from the net cashbox (gross less AMI allowance). 
 
For a detailed view of how these settings affect the display of the Money Collection screen, see the next page.

Remote and/or VCU even if the Enable Remote Credits box is checked on this page. 

There are two modes for Remote Credits, unlimited and Credit Pool.  In unlimited mode, there are 
no limits on the number of free credits that can be granted.  In the Credit Pool mode, free credits 
are limited to a specified number of credits which can be granted at three different times during the 
day.  Each day credit pool amounts are refreshed and unused credit pool credits are not carried over to the next time period.

the check box under Enable Credit Pool is unchecked.  Touch either check box to turn the check marks on and off.

6.2 Money Meter 
 
The  Money Meter screen allows you to set a 
divisor for the optional mechanical money counter 
installed in the jukebox.  The divisor is used to 
determine when the mechanical money meter is 
advanced and is based on the smallest monetary 
unit. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

For example: If the smallest monetary unit is set to a penny (if the divisor is set to 1), the money meter will advance one 

hundred times for each dollar deposited.  If the divisor is set to 100, the money meter will advance one time for each dollar 
deposited. 

 
Touch the text box under Money Meter Divisor to pop up a numeric keypad.  Touch Clear to delete 
the existing value, and then use the keypad to enter the desired divisor.  Touch Update to save your 
changes, or Cancel to return to the previous screen without saving. 
 
If a check mark is in the check box next to Enable Money Meter for Credit Cards, the money 
meter will record credit card revenue.  If the check box is unchecked, credit card revenue is not 
recorded on the money meter.

6.6 VCU Setup 
 
The VCU Setup (VCU) screen allows you to set up 
volume linking options, volume control options and 
feature control options for a Volume Control Unit 
(VCU).  The VCU is a wired remote control that can 
be used with a Rowe Studio Sound System, a Rowe 
4-channel preamplifier, or a Rock-Ola Digital 
Sybersonic preamplifier.  One of these preamplifiers 
must be used for this screen to be available. 
 
The Volume Links tab allows you to set up linking 
options for a Volume Control Unit (VCU). 
 
The VCU has a volume range from 0 (no sound) to 
63 (maximum sound).  The Step Size value is 
used to determine how fast the volume changes 
when the volume is adjusted using a VCU (and can 
be set from 1-9).  The larger the number, the faster 
the volume will change.  However, a smaller 
number allows for more volume level settings. 
 
Mode Linkage is used to select how volume is controlled during Normal play, Auxiliary play and Autoplay.  Touch the circle 
next to one of the options to select it (fill it with blue).  Only one of four options may be chosen: 

•  Independent allows the volume settings of Autoplay, Auxiliary Audio, and Normal play to remain independent. 

•  Linked Aux+Autoplay will allow both the Auxiliary Audio and Autoplay volumes to change together. 

•  Linked Normal + Aux + Autoplay links all volumes so that when one is changed, they are all changed together. 

•  Lock Autoplay will lock the Autoplay volume so it cannot be changed during Auxiliary Music play or Autoplay. 

 
Channel Linkage is used to set the output channel behavior of a Rowe  AV  Controller  or  a  Rowe  4-channel  preamplifier.  
Each output channel can be independent, or linked in several different ways.  Touch the drop-down menu to display a list of 
linkages to choose from.  Touch an option to select it. 
 
 
The VCU1VCU2VCU3, or VCU4 tabs allow you 
to enable/disable the volume and feature control 
buttons for each VCU. 
 
A check mark in any box enables that feature for 
that specific VCU.  Select to allow the buttons an a 
VCU to change volume on specific channels, change 
volume for specific microphones, give jukebox 
credits (Add Credits*), turn on/off power

6.9 Audio Modes 
 
The  Audio Modes screen is only available in a 
jukebox with a Rowe Studio Sound package, a 
Rowe 4-Channel Preamplifier or a Rock-Ola Digital 
Sybersonic preamplifier installed. 
 
The jukebox has three operating modes 
represented by the tabs on this screen; Audio 
Mode, Auxiliary Audio Mode, and Standby Mode.  
With a Rowe Studio Sound or Rowe 4-Channel 
Preamplifier installed, the jukebox will have one 
additional mode called Microphone Mode. 
 
The  Audio Modes screen allows configuration of 
audio signal sourcing, output routing, internal 
muting and automatic volume control (AVC) in the 
preamplifier for each of the jukebox modes.  Touch 
any one of the three or four tabs to see and adjust 
the configuration for that jukebox mode. 
 
 
 
Jukebox Modes: 
Standby
 – This is the mode when a jukebox is not 
in any of the other three modes.  Basically, a 
selection is not playing, Auxiliary Audio is not 
enabled, and the paging microphone is not active 
(keyed). 
 
Audio – This is the mode when a selection (audio 
or video) is playing on the jukebox.  A selection is 
any song being played from the hard drive whether 
it is customer-selected, Autoplay, or Background.  
The Input Select for Audio mode should always be 
mapped to the Sound Card. 
 
Auxiliary Audio – This mode is when the jukebox 
is not playing an audio or video selection and the 
Auxiliary Audio mode is enabled.  When in Auxiliary 
Audio mode, the preamplifier can be configured to 
route an alternate audio source through the 
jukebox sound system.  Connect the auxiliary 
source to one of the other front end inputs, e.g. 
Stereo A. 
 
Microphone (Rowe AV Controller or Rowe 4-Channel Preamplifier only) – The preamplifier can be configured to switch the 
front end input source to any one of the choices or left Unchanged when the microphone is activated (keyed).  The input 
source will be heard in the background when the paging microphone is active.  When the microphone is turned off, the source 
is switched back to the previous setting.  The Microphone state is not available with the Rock-Ola preamplifier. 
 
Configurable Options: 
Input Select
 – This section configures which set of RCA jacks on the preamplifier is used for the audio source in each 
specific jukebox mode.  Normally the jukebox audio from the computer core assembly is plugged into the jacks labeled Stereo 
Mechanism Input (Rowe AV controller), Main Stereo (Rowe 4 channel preamplifier), or Main In (Rock-Ola Digital Sybersonic).  
Each of these jacks is considered the Sound Card input as far as this configuration setup is concerned.  Stereo A, Stereo B or 
Mono can be used for audio input for Auxiliary Audio, Standby and Microphone modes.  The Microphone Mode tab offers one 
additional Input Select choice called Unchanged.  Select this option if the preamplifier is not to change its input audio source 
whenever a microphone is active (keyed).

Output Routing Ch 1/2, Ch 3/4 (not available with Rock-Ola preamplifier) – This section configures how signals in a Rowe 
AV Controller or 4-Channel Preamplifier are combined and routed to the outputs. 
 

Stereo/Stereo – This routes the stereo input as a stereo signal through the preamplifier to the selected output pair 
in the jukebox mode selected. 
Aux/Mono – This mode routes the left aux channel input to output channel 1 or 3, and combines the stereo input 
to a monaural signal, which is routed to channel 2 or 4. 
Mono/Aux – This mode combines the stereo input to a monaural signal, routes that signal to channel 1 or 2, and 
routes the right aux channel input to output channel 2 or 4. 
Aux/Aux – This mode routes the left aux channel input to output channel 1 or 3, and routes the right aux channel 
input to output channel 2 or 4. 
Mono/Mono – This mode combines the stereo input to a monaural signal, and routes that signal to both output 
channels 1 and 2, or to output channels 3 and 4. 

 
Input Muting (not available with Rock-Ola preamplifier) – This option will mute the input to the preamplifier when the check 
box is checked.  Be sure this check box in unchecked if you want an audio signal to pass through the preamplifier in the 
corresponding jukebox mode. 
 
Output Muting – This option controls the muting for the preamplifier output channels.  There are separate mute controls, 
one for channels 1 and 2, and another for channels 3 and 4.  A check in the check box will cause the output channels to be 
muted for the corresponding jukebox mode. 
 
Auto Volume Control – This controls whether the Automatic Volume Control feature of the preamplifier is enabled or 
disabled.  A checked box in this column disables AVC for the corresponding jukebox mode, otherwise AVC is enabled.

8.4 Network 

Information 

 
The  Network Information screens are used to 
help troubleshoot and verify a working connection 
to a server. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Touch the LAN (Gateway) button to test the connection to the local router. 
 
Touch the WAN (Server) button to test the connection to the AMI Entertainment server. 
 
The results of the ping and trace route tests are displayed in the text box.  Use the arrows to the right of the text box to scroll 
through the test results if necessary. 
 
The ping test attempts to contact either the router (if performing a LAN test), or the AMI Entertainment server (if performing 
a WAN test).  It is successful if the jukebox reaches the address it attempted to connect to (shown by receiving a “reply” from 
the address).  Additionally, the number of packets sent should equal the number of packets received.  If the ping test returns 
“…host unreachable…” or other similar error messages, there is an issue with the connection. 
 
The trace route tests the route (or network path) to either the router (if performing a LAN test), or to the server (if performing 
a WAN test).  It is successful if the jukebox reaches the address it attempted to connect to.  If it is reached, the address will 
be shown in the last line of the test.  If the trace route test returns the message “…unable to resolve target system name…” 
or other similar error messages, there is an issue with the connection. 
 
 
Touch the IP Configuration button to display a summary of the IP configuration for the jukebox.  Use this information to 
help troubleshoot connections to the local router and the Internet. 
 
 
Touch the Stop button to stop any connection tests, touch the Clear button to clear the screen of any results. 
 
To return to the Service Mode – Main Menu, touch the Back button.

8.5  Credit Device Tests 
 
The Credit Device Tests screen will allow testing 
of credit devices without causing the corresponding 
amounts to be recorded by the jukebox.  During 
these tests, credit will not be given for the amounts 
deposited.  After testing has concluded, be sure to 
remove any coins and bills you may have used for 
the test. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
As coins, bills, and credit cards are inserted, an ID, Value, and Time will be displayed on the screen. Use this information to 
verify that each device is working properly. 
 
Note: Full credit card numbers will not be displayed, only the last five digits will be shown. 
 
Touch the Clear Results button to clear all values displayed on the screen. 
 
Note: Due to hardware limitations the following behavior will be noticed for each device as follows: 
 
Coins: 

Enabled, coin parameters will be displayed as each coin is deposited 

Disabled, coin parameters will not be displayed however coins will still pass through to the coin box. 

 
Bills: 

Enabled, bill parameters will be displayed as each bill is validated and accepted 

Disabled, if the jukebox has a 6 wire bill acceptor harness installed the bill acceptor will actually be disabled.  If a 
3 wire bill acceptor harness is installed, bill parameters will not be displayed but the bill will not be disabled and 
bills will continue to be accepted by the bill acceptor. 

 
Cards: 

Enabled, card parameters will be displayed as each card is swiped through the reader 

Disabled, the card reader is not physically disabled however card parameters will not be displayed on the screen 
for each card swipe.

Introduction 

This section will describe how to add music to your dial-up digital jukebox using 

the Internet and a portable USB storage device.

Managing Your Dial-Up Jukebox 
Note
:  To use the following features for dial-up connected jukeboxes, at least one of your jukeboxes must be 

connected and configured for a dial-up connection.

 

 

 

Adding Albums Via Download and USB Thumb Drive 
Note
:  If you are using the download option, you can add a maximum of 3 albums at a time. 
Note:  If you are using a USB thumb drive, the size of your drive must be a minimum of 64 MB and no larger 

than 2 GB.  Each album you will be downloading is approximately 50 MB in size, so about 20 albums could fit on 

a 1GB USB drive. 

1.  Access the AMI Web site at www.amientertainment.net and log in using your AMI username and 

password. 

2.  Using your mouse, hover over the Jukeboxes tab at the top of the page and click Manage Music

3.  Select your jukebox or jukebox group from the drop-down menu next to “Managing Music for”. 

Note:  If you select a single jukebox, the files you downloaded can only be installed on that specific 

jukebox.  If you want to download albums to install on several jukeboxes, they must be in a group, and 

you must select that group to add music to. 

4.  Use the options at the top of the page to set up the page the way you want.  Select the albums you want 

to download by clicking the box next to the album.  Click on the page numbers to view all pages of 

music.

 

5.  When finished, click on Checkout at the top of the screen.

 

6.  Select your delivery method for dial-up jukeboxes using the drop-down menu.  “Dial-up download” is best 

if you have a small number of albums you wish to update (less than 10).  If you want to update a large 
number of albums, it’s more efficient to use a USB thumb drive to carry the files to the jukebox. 

•  For automatic download from the Web site to your jukebox via the dial-up connection, click 

Dialup download

•  For download from the Web site to a USB thumb drive, click X XX USB download (where the Xs 

represent the size of your USB thumb drive). 

7.  Click Checkout

a.  For Dialup download, your selections will begin downloading the next time your jukebox calls 

in.  You are now finished the process. To check the status of your download, see the note below. 

b.  For USB download, you will be notified by e-mail when your update is ready.  You can then 

download the update yourself and copy it to a USB drive.  Continue with the steps below to 

install your downloaded music. 

 

Saving Music from the E-Mail to Your USB Thumb Drive 

8.  Connect your USB Thumb Drive to the USB port on your computer. 

9.  Click the first link that appears in your e-mail, and select Save.  The “Save As” dialog box is displayed. 

10.  Select to save the file to your thumb drive, and then click Save

11.  Complete steps 2 and 3 for each link that appears in your e-mail. 

12.  When all the files listed have been downloaded to your thumb drive, safely remove it and take it to your 

jukebox. 

 

Loading Music on the Jukebox 

13.  Connect your thumb drive to one of the USB ports on the computer core assembly, or to the USB adapter cable (if 

provided).

 

14.  The music will automatically load. 

15.  When the music has finished loading, a message will appear on screen indicating that you can safely 

remove the thumb drive. 

16.  Remove the thumb drive. 

 

Note: Music on the USB thumb drive is encrypted and targeted for a specific jukebox or group of jukeboxes.  If 

you attempt to load music from the USB thumb drive to a different jukebox, the music will not load.  You can 

check the results of the music loading operation by checking Reports -> Music Loader Report in Service 

Mode.

Introduction 

This section will guide you through the correct steps in the event that your 

jukebox goes “Out of Service”. 

 

Section 5: Out of Service Error Recovery

Section 5 – Out of Service Error Recovery

Out of Service 
 
There are a number of reasons why your jukebox 
could go out of service.  Most of these are related to 
hardware.  Basically anything that would prevent the 
jukebox from accepting money and playing 
selections will cause the jukebox to go Out of 
Service. 
 
Other reasons could be business related. The 
jukebox must periodically connect to the AMI server 
and report usage data.  If this report is not received 
in the allotted time, the jukebox will go Out of 
Service.  Additionally, if your AMI account is in 
arrears, your jukebox may be disabled and placed 
Out of Service. 
 
Each event is recorded in the jukebox’s Error Log.   
Almost all errors are self-healing.  In other words, 
when the error is corrected, the event in the Error 
Log is automatically removed. 
 
 

 

 

To see specifically what error has taken your jukebox Out of Service, follow these steps. 
 

1.  Open the jukebox and press the SERVICE button on the computer core.  Enter the password if necessary1. 

 

2.  From the Service Mode Main Menu, touch Diagnostics, and then touch Event/Error Logs

 If touching the SERVICE button did not enter you into the Service Mode, check the computer core for the following blinking 

LEDs: RS485 RX, and RS485 TX.  If the lights are not blinking, make sure the power supply is on.  If still unresponsive, 
press the ATX reset switch.  If the LEDs are still not blinking, then you may have a faulty computer core that should be 
replaced.

3.  The Jukebox Event Log will be displayed first.  Go 

to Step 4 to view the errors; however, before 
doing so, you may wish to review this Event Log, 
as it may contain additional information regarding 
the error that caused the jukebox to go Out of 
Service. 

 
4. Touch 

the 

Error Log tab at the bottom of the 

screen to display the jukebox Error Log. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
5.  You should see one or more errors listed.  An 

example is shown on the screen shot below.  
Before doing anything else, write down the 
errors so you are able to recall them if needed 
after they have been cleared. 

 
6.  If possible, correct the displayed errors by 

attending to the specific problem shown in the 
error log.  It’s possible that the jukebox will clear 
the error automatically as you fix the problem. 

 
7.  Once all of the errors are clear, exit the Service 

Mode by touching the Back button.  Then touch 
the  Exit Service Mode button on the Main 
Service Mode Screen.
