SEMINOLE CASINOS to tap Bally slot support systems
May 11, 2011
Bally
Technologies has landed an enterprise-wide, multi-year contract with the
Seminole Tribe of Florida to deploy its SDS Windows slot-management and slot
accounting system at six casinos in Florida by the end of the 2011 calendar
year.
Bally will upgrade the Seminole Tribe of Florida with the latest
version of SDS for Windows, which provides gaming operators with a competitive
and scalable slot-management system using a modern architecture, delivers
flexibility, easy maintainability, horizontal and vertical scalability for any
size of casino operation, and advanced reporting for all legacy and new games
including multi-game, multi-denom, bonusing, and cashless.
In conjunction with the Seminoles’ installation of SDS, the
products that they will be using include Bally’s new soft GMU feature, which
uses the iVIEW communication board for interfacing with the slot machine for
all gaming transactions, thereby reducing the hardware required for operating
the slot floor. This is another advancement in Bally’s philosophy to provide
casinos with a one-wire integrated solution for their system network
architecture where possible, and increases operational efficiency since content
can be downloaded from a central location, rather than the labor-intensive task
of upgrading each gaming device.
The Seminole operation consists of more than 10,000 slot machines
at six casinos throughout Florida: Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino –
Hollywood; Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino – Tampa; Seminole Casino
Brighton; Seminole Casino Coconut Creek; Seminole Casino Hollywood; and
Seminole Casino Immokalee.
