I have a 1977 467 Rock-Ola Princess Jukebox that I'm getting tired of picking songs at my partys since everyone is busy playing games. Does anyone know if this has an autoplay or is there a general setting for Rock-Ola Jukes to set them on autoplay? Did some jukeboxes come with out autoplay? I haven't found an operation manual. I got a parts maunal and schematics which didn't help. Thanks.
 
I don't see any switches like that on the board. There is a test switch which doesn't do anything.

A 467 is probably too old to have autoplay. I don't think it had any computer boards in order to have an autoplay function.

BTW, your pictures are of the amplifier.
 
Thanks Ken. I thought there would be at least a mode or hack where I could autoplay all the records in order. The other side I think is the power supply with no switches. Phet, would be curious if your manual mentions anything about autoplay.

Not that it means much, but that's the same amp that was in my 454 and that box did NOT have an autoplay of any sort.

It does not. I think the only features that I can add that I do not have are a wallbox controller and an apparatus to help hold special full length LPs.
 
Rather than using the keypad to enter selections, you could just put it in service mode or cut the power, then manually trip all the selector levers to play position. That would only take a minute. Power it up and it would play every selection. You could even tap into the lever reset circuit and install a switch to enable and disable it when you want to.

"yes' this is a great trick for parties..
use right hand reach down to the "wobble plate" flick all or just a bunch of odd leavers..
& your ready to go...
can be done with machine on.. (don't get hand caught when it starts to move)
