Abstract
A printed circuit board (PCB) installed on any game machine providing two wires for each meter a user desired to monitor in the machine, and two wires to supply power to the PCB. A monitor attached to any meter ranging from 12 volts to 48 volts that is not polarity specific. The PCB connected via Wifi, regular CAT 5 Internet cable or even via cellular service for areas where the Internet is not available. A single “HUB” per location can provide access and monitoring for a plurality of machines located at one location. The controller can transmit negative and positive alerts provide the user. Additionally, a user can set “alarms” for each item they are monitoring. Using the controller of the present invention, game machines are all wirelessly connected to the game machine comprised of the HUB and can be moved anywhere in the location.
