Abstract

A gaming machine including a secondary processor coupled to a player tracking system for tracking game play of a patron using a virtual player loyalty card is described. A virtual player loyalty card can be created by associating an existing physical player loyalty card with a newly created mobile loyalty card account. The mobile card can be virtually inserted into an electronic gaming machine when a portable electronic device with an associated mobile application is in the vicinity of an electronic gaming machine. Once the mobile card is virtually inserted into the gaming machine, the patron's game play at the gaming machine can be tracked.

Claims (29)

1 . A device comprising:

a communication interface having:

a first slot accounting system protocol interface that, when connected to a slot accounting system port of an electronic gaming machine, is interposed on a slot accounting system communication pathway between a game controller of the electronic gaming machine and a slot machine interface board,

a second slot accounting system protocol interface that, when connected to the slot machine interface board, is interposed on the slot accounting system communication pathway between the game controller of the electronic gaming machine and the slot machine interface board, and

a network interface,

a processor distinct from the slot machine interface board and the game controller of the electronic gaming machine, and

a memory device storing a plurality of instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

monitor first slot accounting system data generated, in accordance with a first slot accounting system protocol, by the game controller of the electronic gaming machine and communicated via the first slot accounting system protocol interface, and

responsive to a determination, based on the monitored first slot accounting system data, to interface with a progressive server distinct from the processor:

determine, based on the first slot accounting system data, second slot accounting system data that comprises at least a subset of the first slot accounting system data and accords with the first slot accounting system protocol,

communicate, via the network interface, the determined second slot accounting system data to the progressive server, and

responsive to a receipt, via the network interface, of third data from the progressive server that accords with the first slot accounting system protocol, communicate, via the second slot accounting system protocol interface, the received third data to the slot machine interface board.

2 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the determined second slot accounting system data comprises the first slot accounting system data.

3 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the determined second slot accounting system data comprises coin-in data.

4 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor responsive to a communication received from the first slot accounting system protocol interface, further cause the processor to clone the communication.

5 . The device of claim 1 , wherein the network interface comprises a local area network interface.

6 . The device of claim 1 , further comprising a housing that encloses at least a portion of the communication interface, wherein the processor and the memory device are contained within the housing, and wherein the communication interface contains a plurality of connectors that are located on a single planar surface of the housing.

7 . The device of claim 6 , wherein the housing has an internal volume less than 100 cubic inches.

8 . The device of claim 6 , wherein the housing is located within a cabinet of the electronic gaming machine.

9 . A method of operating a device, the method comprising:

monitoring, by a processor of the device, first slot accounting system data generated, in accordance with a first slot accounting system protocol, by a game controller of an electronic gaming machine and communicated via a first slot accounting system protocol interface of the device which is interposed on a slot accounting system communication pathway between the game controller of the electronic gaming machine and a slot machine interface board, wherein the processor of the device is distinct from the game controller of the electronic gaming machine and the slot machine interface board, and

responsive to a determination, based on the monitored first slot accounting system data, to interface with a progressive server distinct from the processor:

determining, by the processor of the device and based on the first slot accounting system data, second slot accounting system data that comprises at least a subset of the first data and accords with the first slot accounting system protocol,

communicating, via a network interface of the device, the determined second slot accounting system data to the progressive server, and

responsive to a receipt, via the network interface of the device, of third data from the progressive server that accords with the first slot accounting system protocol, communicating, via a second slot accounting system protocol interface of the device which is interposed on the slot accounting system communication pathway between the game controller of the electronic gaming machine and the slot machine interface board, the received third data to the slot machine interface board.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the determined second slot accounting system data comprises the first slot accounting system data.

11 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the determined second slot accounting system data comprises coin-in data.

12 . The method of claim 9 , further comprising, responsive to a communication received from the first slot accounting system protocol interface, cloning, by the processor, the communication and communicating the cloned communication, via the second slot accounting system protocol interface, to the slot machine interface board.

13 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the network interface comprises a local area network interface.
