Tech Bulletins
PAX-S Shuttle Position Tech Bulletin
There is an issue when forming the community cards in the Pax S Shuffler. The errors will be aborting the shuffle or leaving one or more cards in the infeed while showing incorrect deck composition. This issue will be isolated to games with community cards and using paper cards.
An adjustment will be made to the gap in the card guides at the exit rollers. The shuttle insert calibration will need to set the shuttle at a higher position. All shufflers at the location should be updated so Pax can be moved to any game.
Setup and Adjustments
Use a clamp to hold the shuttle at the top when tightening the belt clamp and adjusting the card guides. Before making adjustments make sure the screws for the shuttle belt clamp are tight.
Use the white plastic .025” shim to set the clearance.
Loosen these four screws.
Hold the top and bottom card guides together while keeping the shim centered in the calibration mark. Tighten the 4 screws.
Repeat the adjustment for the guide blocks on the other side.
In the Calibrate Shuttle screen line up the insert marks as shown.
Serial number S200106 and above Subtract 600 from the insert calibration and enter the new value. The calibration marks will look like this. A lower value will raise the shuttle position.
Serial numbers below S200106 subtract 400 from the insert calibration and enter the new value.
Pax Shufflers that had previously been working well subtract 200 from the insert calibration and enter the new value.
Starting with serial number S200147 the card guide and the insert calibration adjustments will be made in production.and Bulletins
