Your tool for perfect leveling of a pinball machine.
How to use:
1. Just calibrate your iPhone the first time on a perfect 0° ground as Zero
Press Calibrate. A Yellow button with instructions will open:
If the data are stable, press the button 1st time.
Turn your phone 180° around for the second calibration an press the button again.
2. Enter your desired angle in percent. Typical is 6.5%
3. Put your phone on the playfield of your pinball machine and watch the 4 green markers. These represent the legs of your pinball
4. The markers should be inside the blue line. If the marker is outside the leg must be screwed in.
5. If all is perfectly aligned, all markers are on the blue line. The moving red crosshair overlaps the green one.
6. Turn on the voice Switch and pinguy will give you instructions while you are working under the pinbal. The instructions can be:
rear too low (the same meaning as front too high)
or
left too high (here you can, of course, putting the right side up)
If x and y angle is ok, he will let you know ;-)
6. After inserting the playfield cover glass, put your iPhone on it and switch the app to glass
7. Now you can calibrate the app on the glass pane
If you want to check later to see if your pinball is still properly aligned, simply put your iPhone on the glass
Example 1:
The rear is too high or the front is too low. The front screws need to be turned out
Example 2:
The Flipper is right too deep. The right feet must be turned out.
With version 1.1 it will be possible to learn up to 300 pins on glas.
