Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024
A. If the operation of any EGD is questioned by any licensee, casino operator, patron, or division agent, and the question cannot be resolved, the questioned device shall be examined in the presence a division agent and a representative of the licensee or casino operator. If the malfunction can not be resolved to the satisfaction of the division, the patron, the casino operator or the licensee, the EGD shall be disabled and be subjected to a program storage media memory test to verify "signature" comparison by the division. While waiting for the division agent to test the EGD, the EGD shall be removed from service and shall not be tampered with by any person. Upon successful verification of the "signature" of the program storage media and all malfunctions resolved, the EGD in question may be enabled for patron play with approval by the division.
B. In the event that the malfunction cannot be determined and corrected by this testing, the EGD may be removed from the designated gaming area and secured in a remote, locked compartment. The division may require that the EGD be transported to a designated gaming laboratory selected by the division where the device shall be fully analyzed to determine the status and cause of the malfunction. All costs for transportation and analysis shall be borne by the licensee or casino operator.
AUTHORITY NOTE: Promulgated in accordance with R.S. 27:15 and 24.
