easist way would be to buy a variable stake/prize key, but it will only work if the machine program supports 20p £5 set up.

there were some on ebay the other day. not expensive. if its not compatible it will alarm and you will have to go back to your original price per play

ok thanks guys.I have purchased one from swallow amusements so if 20p play 5 quid jakpot dont work,im sure 25p play 35 pound jackpot will.

The key arrived and ive tried most settings and get the invalid key alarm.I found a grey one in machine with the 35 pound jackpot decals and that is a 25p play 35 pound jackpot,and that alarms aswell.So if i use the original key how would i configure it.My variable key is 1 to 8.But the key fitted has 1 and 9 connected.Im puzzled and pissed off.

for 35jackpot and 25p stake. get your 8 switch plug. 1=on and 0=off. so from switch 1 to 8 put this in. off off on on on on off off. so thats 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0
