Hi,
 
this is a tutorial on how to find out the switch, light and solenoid numbers of an (earlier) SS-Pinball machine without having a manual or any documentation.
I did this a number of times already and wanted to write the procedure down, so that others can use it if need be.
 
Keep in mind that this analysis is quite a guessing game and You will need gameplay videos or a real machine if You want to be 100% sure of the correct usage and placement of switches and insert lights.
 
Attached is a Word document and an example table with the tools I use.
The second attachment is the missing mssdtfmt.dll VPinMAMETest.exe is asking for under Win10.
 
Regards
Michael
