SHUTTLE Topper Lights are available in four versions: with chrome-plated framing dotted by white or blue LEDs, or with black front framing dotted by white or blue LEDs.
SHUTTLE Topper Lights can be mounted on machine domes (r=441 mm or r=222 mm) or on flat shelves, by the adapter wedges provided. Above all, the fast and robust clip-on support system allows the Shuttle Topper Light to get easily fitted or removed from the machine top; such solid modular solution is very useful in many cases, for instance in making transport operations easier.
Each of the 32 high intensity LEDs is protected by its own separate cap, that provides optimal diffusion of the light rays. The ever-changing lighting sequence switches among 14 different LED patterns every 90 sec., calling for immediate attention. Two intensity levels are provided, to adapt to specific environment light conditions . The LEDs are PWM current-driven; such feature extends their long-lasting lifetime and provides great flexibility in light intensity control. As an option, lights can be switched off for 15 sec. when the game gets started, so as not to divert the player from the game itself.
The central back-lighted surface can be used for advertisements or other communication messages, and can be easily and smartly self-customized: just slip your printed graphics (i.e. serigraphy, or glossy paper-sheet) between the two preset acrylic glasses. The topper shells can be disassembled and re-assembled very easily, which makes it simple and quick to replace the advert.
The Suzo-Happ group have released a new generation of toppers for casino and AWP machines. It is well known that toppers work to attract players to gaming machines. The first generation of toppers were individually controlled by the host machine. The R&D department was tasked by Suzo management to generate a new technology, to further strengthen the player pull generated by a topper.
Not only one solution came to fruition, but two strong advancements. The first was the move to colour (RGB) toppers. Now the toppers can be fitted with multi-coloured LED’s – using ultra-bright nichia LED’s.
The second solution is the networking of toppers – up to eight toppers can be linked together. This technology uses computer network patch cables, allowing the toppers to be synchronized. Casinos can even link this synchronization to create unique patterns, for example a snake pattern that runs from one topper to the next.
The LED’s that Suzo has chosen are current driven. This means that they give an improved, longer life. The communication of the synchronized hoppers is via ccTalk, so OEM’s can easily control and create new commands to the toppers, allowed a whole range of possibilities. For the RGB toppers, different colour combinations for flashing pattern can easily be selected. Therefore, a topper can flash with unique patterns for different states - such as prize winning, playing and stand by.
