To prevent the generation of abnormalities in the communication among the devices for the games even when the exhaustion of the game media occurs by eliminating the sensors and switches for monitoring whether one dispensing unit of game media is stored into a game medium storage means.
The main control part of a slot machine turns the EXS off (H level) when confirming the given number (for example, 5) of tokens put out by the detection signal of the put-out sensor (signal indicating the putting out of tokens from hopper with put-out motor). Moreover, when the put-out sensor fails to output the detection signal, even when the put-out motor is driven so long enough to put out one token (for example, 1.15 sec), the EXS is turned off (H level). When the turning off of the EXS does not occur beyond the given time, the card unit is determined to cause abnormality in the communication.
