Galaxy 3 Operating Manual

Section 5
Technical Description

Below are technical descriptions of the many parts within the
Galaxy 3.

5.1 Monitor

19” Wide LCD Monitor

5.2 Power Supply

ATX Switchable Power Supply: 

12 VDC, 

Switchable between 120 and  230 VAC

Note: If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by a special cord or assembly available
from the manufacturer or its service agent.

5.3 Hardware

PC Board:

SATA 3GB/s DDR2 1066

RAM: 

1024MB DDR2 

Hard Drive:

SATA 2.5” 40GB. Always make 

sure you have the current Build of Software.

5.4 Operating Conditions

The Galaxy 3 can be operated at 115~VAC or   
220-240~VAC. There is a switch on the power
supply to change between 115 Volts and 220-240 
Volts.

Power Draw

4.8A @ 120V~50/60 Hz
2.6A @ 220-240~50/60 Hz

Warning: Make sure the voltage on the power sup-
ply is set correctly for the area you are in. 

5.5 Darthead

The Galaxy 3 is unique in that it has both a 15” and 13” 
darthead on the same game. The targets use the same 
backboard but have separate matrixes and matrix 
cushions. 

A latch on the side of the catch ring allows you to flip the
darthead. Pull the lever toward the target and push.

The darthead assembly for both sides consists of (from 
front to back): the spider and segments, a matrix cushion,
and the switch matrix. This assembly is resting on two 
screws at the bottom and is secured to the door (back-
board) by means of five spider retaining latches. 

5.6 Target Interface Board

The switch matrixes are connected to the Target Interface
Board via the 38 pins of J1. For troubleshooting purposes,
it is important to know which pins on J1 will give a partic-
ular score. Check 

Section 8 Maintenance

for more infor-

mation.    

5.7 Missed Dart Detector

Built directly onto the Target Interface Board, the Missed
Dart Detector detects any “missed” dart. In more technical
terms, the missed dart detector senses any dart that hits the  
catch screen that surrounds the darthead. 

If a missed dart is detected, the machine will record a dart
thrown and no score will be given.

See 

Section 3.6 Target Interface Board Basics

for infor-

mation on adjusting the missed dart sensitivity.

5.8 Coin Door and Bill Acceptor

The Mars Bill Acceptors that works with the Coin/Bill 
Ready Doors are 2451 and 2651

E. Diagnostics

Abort In Progress League: 

Stops any league that is 

currently running. 

Collect Diagnostic Data: 

This is used to gather software 

and device data that may help troubleshoot a problem. 
Only use if you are instructed to by Arachnid Technical 
Support. 

Target Test: 

Starting with the Double 20, this will ask you

to tap various segments. The segment you hit will make a
positive sound if it is the correct segment and a negative 
sound if it is wrong. This will help you find stuck segments
as well as making sure all the segments score properly. 

LED Test:

Technicians can use this to test the LED’s on 

the side panels. It wll scroll through the various colors. 

Remote Play Diagnostics: 

This menu will allow you to 

test every aspect of Remote Play.

Debug Logging: 

This is another tool that Arachnid 

Techsupport can use to trouble shoot a problem.  Only use
if you are instructed to by Arachnid Technical Support. 

Restart Software:

Used to exit the Software Update 

Menu and reboot the Galaxy 3 software.
