The door on the rectifier section of 
F-Frame VLTs are fitted with a 
feed-through hole to accommodate 
a USB extension cord so that the 
controls can be accessed from a 
laptop computer without requiring 
access to the inside of the VLT. 
 
With the rectifier door open, the 
hole is located near the upper right 
corner of the door.  See Figures 1 
and 2. 
 
The feed-through hole is covered 
by the decorative label on the out-
side and with a round sticker on the 
outside.
