Anyone here ever worked on the midway (Theme Park) style hammer game
American Hi-Striker X-Treme made around 2002 by Coastal Amusements in
the USA? These have a panel of LED boards going up around 30 feet to a
sunburst topper - the idea is you smack a pedastal with a large hammer
and the light show tower indicates your power.

I have the basic installation info package including setup, programming,
and how to make the slab, but I have no details on how the air hose from
the hammer punch is hooked up inside the control box - what I have are
air lines with a T connector that doesn't seem to go anywhere. There is
also a air(?) hose coming out in the same slab near the mounts that is
of unknown purpose.

The person who set this up has passed away and that is where we came in
trying to resurrect the beastie as we have serviced other electronics on
the midway and wanted a fresh challenge.

I have contacted the company that made this thing, and everyone related
to this machine has retired...

I am also contacting companies that used to sell it in the hopes that
someone has the technical setup manual available.

Thanks,

John :-#)#

After an hour or more of combing the archives online, out of 12 sites, here is the
best I could find.

Hi Charles,

Afraid the unit I have is nothing like that.

It looks like this, but no one seems to have any info for it other than
basic setup...
