SEGA STERN Double Trough Up-Kicker Opto Board 520-5173-00 und 520-5174-00
Using an infrared beam sensor for easier handling and alignment
With the new Double Trough Up-Kicker Opto Board, it is possible to improve the operation significantly.
Simpler construction: The original SEGA / STERN version is based on a visible light beam is generated by a bright red LED. As the recipient is also a light emitting diode which is operated upside down. This principle works rather poorly and is a very accurate adjustment of the light beam ahead. Frequent source of error is and was that of the light beam was not exactly aligned and the light barrier was not working. The new Double Trough Up-Kicker opto board is based on infrared technology . This also reduces the number of components of the receiver board by 40%. The principle of the infrared beam sensor works very much safe and trouble-free than the visible light barrier original used. After installation is required no more accurate alignment, since the infrared principle works better.
All plugs board dimensions are identical to the original. The set does not come with the rubber mounting dampers. This must be taken from the original SEGA / STERN boards. For the following pinball PinLED Double Trough Up-Kicker Opto Board is 40006 suitable:
