Abstract:
1. A motor stop control device utilizable for a gaming machine with a reel on which a plurality of symbols are formed, the motor stop control device having a motor with a plurality of excitation phases to rotate the reel and a motor stop controller for stopping the motor based on a stop instruction, the motor stop control device comprising: a first power source for producing a first voltage value; a second power source for producing a second voltage value lower than the first voltage value; and a power source change device for changing the first power source to the second power source based on a control signal output from the motor stop controller; wherein the motor stop controller decreases the first voltage value added to the motor rotating at a constant speed to the second voltage value through the power source change device when the stop instruction occurs and executes a stop control process of the motor by 2-phase excitation.
