Disconnecting from the CMS
Each gaming machine in the venue must be electronically connected and communicating with the Centralised Monitoring System (CMS).
Maxgaming's Data Monitoring Services (DMS) monitor all gaming machines connected to the CMS.
In limited circumstances, you may need to disconnect gaming machines from the CMS due to natural disasters, venue renovations, closure of licensed premises, repair and maintenance of gaming machines, or other reasons.
If you need to disconnect a gaming machine from the CMS:
- For up to 48 hours, you do not need to notify the DMS
- For up to 7 days, you must notify DMS immediately prior to disconnection
- For more than 7 days, you must seek approval for disconnection from Gaming Systems.
