A gaming device uses a USB interface for power delivery and data transmission. In non-limiting examples, the USB interface may be a universal serial bus (USB) C-type cable communicatively and electrically connecting multiple electronic gaming devices and/or auxiliary devices, such as monitors, thereby reducing the number of cables for power and data delivery between machines and/or devices.

Gaming device with a USB interface for delivering power and data to video display modules

A diagnostic system for electronic gaming machines (EGMs) includes a power supply, and a diagnostic device in electrical connection with the power supply, the diagnostic device configured for placement within a cabinet of an EGM. The diagnostic device includes an attachment device configured to couple the diagnostic device to the EGM, a sensor array including at least one sensor for sensing a condition associated with the EGM and configured to generate conditions data based on the sensed condition, a communications device configured to transmit the conditions data to a remote location, a memory configured to store the conditions data, and a processor configured to analyze the conditions data and determine a diagnostic evaluation based upon the analyzed conditions data.

Gaming machine with card reader

An electronic gaming device is described. The electronic gaming device includes a button deck including a display device, at least one memory with instructions stored thereon, and at least one processor in communication with the display device and the at least one memory. The instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to receive, from an end user device associated with a player account, a signal that includes player data, parse the player data, and control the display device to display at least a portion of the player data in a display area of the display device, wherein a location of the display area is predefined in the at least one memory.
