If the sensor misses a shot, check these 2 common solutions,
Improper Ball Placement: The ball must be placed within the designated hitting zone. Use the reference picture located directly above the cabinet as a guide. If all settings are correct and it still fails to read, try restarting the computer or call our support line.
Multiple Balls: Only one unmarked white ball is allowed in the hitting zone at a time. If there are multiple balls, please remove all except for one.
System Error: If all settings and placements are correct but the sensor still fails to read, try restarting the computer or contact our support line.
