Section 5320.7 - Progressive meter/display requirements

(a) Progressive displays. A progressive meter shall be visible to all players who are playing a device that potentially might win the progressive amount if the progressive jackpot combination appears, except for mystery jackpots. A player shall know that he or she is playing a progressive game and not have to play the maximum bet amount to find out. The following applies to all progressive meter displays:

(1) The progressive meter shall display the current total of the progressive jackpot in the monetary value or credits (the monetary value may vary for multi-site progressive displays). Because the polling cycle does cause a delay, the jackpot meter need not show precisely the actual monies in the progressive pool at each instance. This paragraph does not apply to mystery jackpots.

(2) If the progressive award will not doubled or tripled when won during a feature, such feature shall be indicated clearly on the display.

(b) Types of updating displays. The use of odometer and other paced updating displays are permitted. The progressive meter shall display the winning value within 30 seconds of the jackpot being recognized by the central system. In the case of the use of paced updating displays, the system jackpot meter shall display the winning value after the jackpot broadcast is received from the central system.

(c) Progressive display digital limitations. If a progressive meter progresses to such meter's maximum display amount, such meter shall freeze and remain at the maximum value until awarded to a player.

(d) Alternating displays. When applicable, it is sufficient to have progressive information displayed in an alternating fashion.
