G2S v2.1 EGM Certification Requirements – Release 2
1 Overview
The G2S v2.1 Certification Requirements Checklist, on the following pages, is used to
identify the Functional Groups to be certified for EGMs that implement the GSA G2S
Message Protocol v2.1, its extensions, and its errata.
The checklist identifies the Functional Groups in which a product may be certified.
Operational and jurisdictional requirements will determine which Functional Groups must be
certified. Each Functional Group corresponds to a specific set of functionality defined within
the GSA G2S Message Protocol v2.1 specification or a GSA-approved extension.
The Detailed Certification Requirements, which follow the checklist, identify the specific
commands within the GSA G2S Message Protocol v2.1 specification or a GSA-approved
extension that are associated with each Functional Group.
The Communications Configuration Requirements, which follow the Detailed Certification
Requirements, identify the specific configuration options within the GSA G2S Message
Protocol v2.1 specification that must be configurable for the communications class.
The Option Configuration Requirements, which follow the Communications Configuration
Requirements, identify the specific configuration options within the GSA G2S Message
Protocol v2.1 specification or a GSA-approved extension that must be configurable for each
Functional Group.
1.1
Eligible Versions
The following versions of the GSA G2S Message Protocol v2.1 specification and GSAapproved extensions are eligible for certification. From time-to-time, as new versions,
extensions, and errata are released, this list may be updated and a new version of these
Certification Requirements may be released.

G2S v2.1 EGM Certification Requirements – Release 2
on the requirements of the G2S Message Protocol v2.1, its errata, and its extensions.
Information contained in the Technical Bulletins may also have a direct impact on and the
requirements for GSA certification of implementations of the G2S Message Protocol v2.1, its
errata, and its extensions. It is strongly recommended that implementers of the G2S
Message Protocol review the Technical Bulletins on a regular basis for corrections and
clarifications that may affect their implementations. The Technical Bulletins are available in
the download area of the GSA website www.gamingstandards.com.
1.3
Transport Requirements
The GSA G2S Message Protocol v2.1 specification does not specify the transport required to
communicate G2S messages. However, to be certified, implementations of the GSA G2S
Message Protocol v2.1 MUST use a GSA-approved transport. A list of those transports may
be found on the GSA website at gamingstandards.com.
1.4
Certification Requirements
To be certified, implementations of the GSA G2S Message Protocol v2.1, its extensions, and
its errata MUST meet the requirements of the version of the protocol under test and the
requirements identified in this document. Released versions of the GSA G2S Message
Protocol v2.1, its extensions, and its errata can be found on the GSA website at
www.gamingstandards.com.
Implementations of the GSA G2S Message Protocol v2.1, its extensions, and its errata MUST
adhere to the following requirements to be GSA certified. From time-to-time, as new
versions, extensions, and errata are released, these requirements may be updated and a
new version of these Certification Requirements may be released.

The manufacturer of the implementation MUST comply with all requirements of the
GSA Certification Program Guide. This document can be found on the GSA website at
www.gamingstandards.com.

All messages generated by an implementation MUST comply with the messagehandling requirements of the GSA G2S Message Protocol under test. Within the GSA
G2S Message Protocol specification and its errata, requirements are identified by the
terms MUST, MUST NOT, and REQUIRED. Some requirements may not be specifically
tested by the testing agency.

All messages generated by the implementation MUST be well-formed, syntactically
correct, and semantically correct.

All messages generated by the implementation MUST contain all required elements
and attributes.

Page 2 of 63
G2S v2.1 EGM Certification Requirements – Release 2

All messages generated by the implementation MUST contain all optional elements
and attributes necessary to construct a semantically correct message. Optional
elements and attributes MAY be omitted provided that the default values associated
with the elements and attributes convey the proper semantic meaning to the recipient
of the message.

At a minimum, the implementation MUST be certified for the following Functional
Groups. The implementation MAY be certified for other Functional Groups.
o Core Communications Functionality
o Core Event Reporting Functionality
o Core Cabinet Functionality
o Core Meter Reporting Functionality
o Core Game Play Functionality
o Core Handpay Functionality

To be certified for a Functional Group, the implementation MUST comply with all
requirements for the Functional Group. Within the GSA G2S Message Protocol
specification, its extensions, and its errata, requirements are identified by the terms
MUST, MUST NOT, and REQUIRED. Some requirements may not be specifically tested
by the testing agency.

To be certified for a Functional Group, the implementation MUST support all
commands that are received by the implementation within the Functional Group and
the implementation MUST generate all commands within the Functional Group when
the action that causes the command occurs. If the action that causes a command to be
generated does not occur within the implementation, there is no requirement that the
command be generated.

To be certified for a Functional Group, for each request that is received within the
Functional Group, the implementation MUST generate a semantically correct response
to the request or generate a response that contains a semantically correct error code.
o For example, to be certified for the Core Game Authentication Functionality,
when an implementation does not support any special functions, the
implementation must still support the getSpecialFunctions request, returning a
semantically correct response – that is, a specialFunctions command containing
an empty list of special functions. Similarly, if the implementation receives a
request to run a special function, the implementation must respond with a
semantically correct error code in its response – that is, G2S_GAX002 Special
Function Unknown.

1.5

To be certified for a Functional Group, all events within the Functional Group MUST be
generated by the implementation when the action that causes the event occurs. If the
action that causes an event does not occur within the implementation, there is no
requirement that the event be generated.

To be certified for a Functional Group, when the Core Option Configuration
Functionality is also to be certified, all options within the Functional Group that are
configurable MUST be configurable by a host using the optionConfig class. See Option
Configuration Requirements for more details about configurable options.

The descriptor list for the implementation MUST include all devices supported by the
implementation regardless of whether the devices are to be certified.
Certification Record Requirements
For an implementation to be certified, the testing laboratory MUST provide a written
Certification Record for the implementation to the Certification Authority. The Certification
Record MUST include the complete results of the conformance testing performed on the
implementation.
1.6

The Certification Record MUST identify all Functional Groups supported by the
implementation regardless of whether a specific Functional Group was actually tested.

For each Functional Group supported by the implementation, the Certification Record
MUST indicate whether the Functional Group conformed to the requirements for the
Functional Group, whether the Functional Group did not conform to the requirements
for the Functional Group, or whether the Functional Group was not tested.

The implementation MAY contain functionality that is not part of any Functional
Group. For example, the implementation might contain a private extension. If any such
functionality is present in the implementation, the Certification Record, at a minimum,
MUST indicate that other functionality was present in the implementation. Further
details of the functionality MAY be withheld from the Certification Record. The
Certification Record MUST NOT include any indication of whether the functionality was
tested or whether the functionality conformed to a set of requirements.
Restrictions Due to Operational Capabilities
In some cases, the operational capabilities of an implementation will limit the range of
possible values for an option. For example, when a game only allows a single credit to be
wagered, the only possible value for the maxWagerCredits option is 1 (one). In such cases,
it may be necessary for the implementation to restrict the range of possible values for an
option to a subset of the values allowed by the protocol. In some cases, this may result is
only one possible value for an option.
2014/7/29
©2014 Gaming Standards Association
Page 4 of 63
G2S v2.1 EGM Certification Requirements – Release 2
Minimum values, maximum values, and/or enumeration lists can be used by an
implementation to identify the range of values that meet its operational capabilities. When
only one possible value exists for an option, the implementation can simply prohibit changes
to the option – for example, by setting the canModLocal and canModRemote attributes for
the option to false.
The intent of the protocol and these certification requirements is that options, which are
intended to be configurable, actually be configurable. Manufacturers must not restrict the
range of possible values for an option simply to avoid implementing a required option. Any
restrictions must reflect true operational limitations of an implementation. Any such
limitations must be based on specific jurisdictional or operational requirements.
For example, it is reasonable to restrict the list of languages available for the localeId option
of the cabinet to languages that are actually supported by the EGM. And, it is reasonable to
restrict the largeWinLimit option of the cabinet to a value that is less than the maximum
value permitted by the protocol.
However, it is not reasonable to restrict the noResponseTimer for a communications device
to 0 (zero). It is not reasonable to restrict the requiredForPlay option for a voucher or wat
device to false. It is not reasonable to restrict the largeWinLimit option for the cabinet to a
fixed value.
Any such limitations MUST be noted on the implementation’s Certification Record.
Any disagreements between testing labs and manufacturers regarding the reasonableness
of restrictions imposed by manufacturers should be resolved by following the appeals
process described in the GSA Certification Program Policy Guide.
See Communications Configuration Requirements and Option Configuration Requirements
for more details about configurable options.
1.7
Errors and Ambiguities
Should an error or ambiguity be discovered during certification testing, the Certification
Authority should use the following guidelines to resolve the issue.
1.8

Errors and ambiguities should be resolved in a manner that is consistent with
subsequent released versions of the GSA G2S Message Protocol or, in the absence of a
released version, with clarifications or corrections that have been approved by the GSA
G2S Technical Committee for inclusion in a future version of the GSA G2S Message
Protocol.

Errors and ambiguities should be resolved in a manner that will do the most to promote
interoperability.
Deprecated Functionality
Functionality within released versions of the G2S Message Protocol specification, its
extensions, and its errata may be identified as deprecated. This indicates that the GSA no
longer recommends that the functionality be implemented. Implementations SHOULD NOT
2014/7/29

Page 5 of 63
G2S v2.1 EGM Certification Requirements – Release 2
include deprecated functionality. However, to maintain backwards compatibility,
implementations MAY include deprecated functionality.
Functionality may also be identified as deprecated in subsequent released versions of the
G2S Message Protocol specification, its extensions, and its errata. Implementations MAY
omit any such deprecated functionality. However, before doing so, manufacturers SHOULD
verify that the functionality is not needed for interoperability with other end-points.

2 EGM Certification Requirements Checklist
2.1
How to Use Checklist
To indicate that a specific Functional Group is to be certified, check the box next to that
Functional Group. Functional Groups that are required for certification are pre-checked.
Classes may include a “Core” Functional Group as well as optional Functional Groups. When
a “Core” Functional Group exists for a class, if an optional Functional Group is to be certified,
the “Core” Functional Group MUST also be certified. In such cases, certification of the
optional Functional Group is dependent on certification of the “Core” Functional Group.
Within the checklist, “Core” Functional Groups are identified by a large checkbox on the left
side of the “Certify” column. Optional Functional Groups are identified by a small checkbox
on the right side of the “Certify” column.
When certification of one optional Functional Group is dependent on certification of another
optional Functional Group, the dependency will be noted with the optional Functional Groups.
In such cases, both the optional Functional Group and the Functional Group upon which it is
dependent MUST be certified.
For each “Core” Functional Group that is selected, indicate the maximum number of devices
within that class that may be concurrently active and owned by G2S hosts. Devices that
may only be owned by the EGM are not included in this count. A minimum of one device is
required for each “Core” Functional Group that is selected. Operational and/or jurisdictional
requirements may specify a value greater than one.
The number of devices may be “theoretically unlimited”, indicating that there is no set fixed
upper limit to the number of devices that can be active concurrently – the only constraint on
the number of devices is the physical limits of the EGM.
For example, if an EGM can support up to seven communications devices, the “Devices”
column should indicate “7”. If an EGM can support a theoretically unlimited number of game
play devices, the “Devices” column should indicate “unlimited” or “∞”. If an EGM only
supports one device within a “Core” Functional Group, the “Devices” column should indicate
“1”.
Provided that an EGM supports a particular host-oriented class, the EGM is required to
support one device within that class for each host that it supports. Thus, provided that the
EGM supports such a “Core” Functional Group, the number of devices specified for the Core
Event Reporting Functionality, Core Meter Reporting Functionality, Core Option
Configuration Functionality, and Core Game Authentication Functionality MUST be the same
as the number of devices specified for the Core Communications Functionality.
To be certified for a “Core” Functional Group, the Testing Laboratory MUST verify that the
number of devices specified can be concurrently active and assigned to G2S hosts, and that
all devices comply with the requirements of the protocol under test. When the number of
devices is “unlimited”, the Testing Laboratory MUST verify that all supported devices, up to
a reasonable number of devices, comply with the requirements of the protocol under test.
Note that the “Devices” column MUST only include devices which can be owned by a G2S
host. Devices that can only be EGM-owned MUST NOT be included in the count. Any EGMowned devices that can perform the intended functionality of the class MUST be noted on
the implementation’s Certification Record.
Within this document, checkboxes can be toggled by clicking on the checkboxes.
Alternatively, the list may be printed out and completed by hand.

G2S v2.1 EGM Certification Requirements – Release 2
4 Communications Configuration Requirements
The commConfig class contains commands that can be used to configure options associated
with communications devices. The commands allow host identifiers and host URLs to be
assigned to communications devices. The commands also allow owners, guests, and
configurators to be assigned to devices supported by an implementation.
For the most part, it is intended that those options be configurable through an
administrative interface at the EGM or remotely via the commConfig class. However, there
are cases where it is not intended that an option be configurable. There are also cases
where an option should only be configurable when a specific Functional Group is also to be
certified.
For an implementation to be certified,

Options that are intended to be configurable MUST be configurable.

Options that are not intended to be configurable MUST NOT be configurable.
Some options may only have meaning when a specific optional Functional Group is
implemented.

When such a Functional Group is to be certified, all such options MUST be configurable.

When such a Functional Group is implemented, but is not to be certified, any such
options MAY be configurable or not configurable.

When such a Functional Group is not implemented, all such options MUST NOT be
configurable and, in some cases, MUST be set to specific values or not reported at all.
Options that are configurable MUST be configurable through the commConfig class or an
administrative interface.

When the Core Communications Configuration Functionality is to be certified for an
implementation, the options that are configurable MUST be configurable through the
commConfig class by a host using the G2S Message Protocol; the same set of options or
a subset of the options MAY also be configurable through an administrative interface.
The following table identifies the options that are available within the commConfig class and
indicates the configuration requirements for those options. In the table, the following terms
are used to categorize the configuration requirements:

Required – the option MUST be configurable.

Conditional – the option MUST be configurable when a specific optional Functional
Group is to be certified; the option MAY be configurable or not configurable when the
Functional Group is implemented, but is not to be certified; the option MUST NOT be
configurable and, in some cases, MUST be set to a specific value or not reported at all
when the Functional Group is not implemented.

5 Option Configuration Requirements
In each class, the device profile section identifies the standard configuration options
available through the G2S message protocol. Those options allow devices to be configured
to meet operational and jurisdictional requirements.
For the most part, it is intended that these options be configurable through an
administrative interface at the EGM or remotely via the optionConfig class. However, there
are cases where it is not intended that an option be configurable. There are also cases
where an option should only be configurable when a specific Functional Group is supported.
In rare cases, there are options that may or may not be configurable based on the
manufacturer’s preference.
For an implementation to be certified for a Functional Group,

Options that are intended to be configurable for the Functional Group MUST be
configurable.

Options that are not intended to be configurable for the Functional Group MUST NOT be
configurable.

Options that are intended to be configurable for the Functional Group based on the
manufacturer’s preference MAY be configurable or not be configurable.
Some options may only have meaning when a specific optional Functional Group is
implemented.

When such a Functional Group is to be certified, all such options MUST be configurable.

When such a Functional Group is implemented, but is not to be certified, any such
options MAY be configurable or not configurable.

When such a Functional Group is not implemented, all such options MUST NOT be
configurable and, in some cases, MUST be set to specific values or not reported at all.
Options that are configurable MUST be configurable through the optionConfig class or an
administrative interface.

When the Core Option Configuration Functionality is to be certified for an
implementation, the options that are configurable MUST be configurable through the
optionConfig class by a host using the G2S Message Protocol; the same set of options or
a subset of the options MAY also be configurable through an administrative interface.
The following tables identify the standard configuration options for each class and indicate
configuration requirements for those options. In the tables, the following terms are used to
categorize the options:

Required – the option MUST be configurable.

Conditional – the option MUST be configurable when a specific optional Functional
Group is to be certified; the option MAY be configurable or not configurable when the
Functional Group is implemented, but is not to be certified; the option MUST NOT be

configurable and, in some cases, MUST be set to a specific value or not reported at all
when the Functional Group is not implemented.
5.1

Optional – the option MAY be configurable or not configurable based on the
manufacturer’s preference.

Prohibited – the option MUST NOT be configurable through the optionConfig class. The
option MAY be configurable or not configurable through an administrative interface
based on the manufacturer’s preference.
Configuration Identifiers
The configuration options for each device include the configurationId option. This option is
included for the host’s convenience and can be used by the host to assign a reference
number to a particular configuration for a device. The host can check that reference
number, rather than each individual option, to make sure that the correct configuration is in
place for the device. When a device configuration is changed by an entity other than the
configurator of the device (for example, through a local administrative interface), the
configurationId is set to 0 (zero).
In the following tables, the configurationId is specified as required. This means that the
implementation MUST allow the host to set the configurationId using appropriate commands
within the protocol, provided that those commands are supported by the implementation.
The implementation MUST also set the configurationId to 0 (zero) when a device
configuration is changed by an entity other than the configurator of the device.
As noted in the Option Configuration sections for each class, the implementation MUST NOT
allow the configurationId to be changed through the optionCurrentValues mechanism of the
setOptionChange command. The canModRemote attribute for the configurationId option in
the optionList command MUST always be set to false.
5.2
Configuration Date/Time
The configuration options for each device include the configDateTime option. This option is
used to keep track of the last date/time that the configuration of a device was updated. The
G2S committee intends to deprecate this option in the next release of the protocol. Thus, in
the following tables, the configDateTime option is specified as optional.
