A progressive meter shall be visible to all players who are playing a device that potentially might win the progressive amount if the progressive jackpot combination appears, except for mystery jackpots. A player shall know that he or she is playing a progressive game and not have to play the maximum bet amount to find out. The following applies to all progressive meter displays:
The use of odometer and other paced updating displays are permitted. The progressive meter shall display the winning value within 30 seconds of the jackpot being recognized by the central system. In the case of the use of paced updating displays, the system jackpot meter shall display the winning value after the jackpot broadcast is received from the central system.
If a progressive meter progresses to such meter’s maximum display amount, such meter shall freeze and remain at the maximum value until awarded to a player.
When applicable, it is sufficient to have progressive information displayed in an alternating fashion.
