Electronically controlled door lock systems for electronic gaming machines

A system for electronically locking and unlocking locks of an electronic gaming machine, the system comprising:

• the electronic gaming machine having:
• a cabinet defining an internal compartment having a first internal portion and an internal cashbox portion configured to receive a cashbox,
• a first door rotatably coupled to the cabinet and configured to rotate between a first closed position and a first open position, to cover a first opening of the first internal portion and prevent access to the first internal portion in the first closed position, and to provide access to the first internal portion in the first open position,
• a first door lock mechanism configured to be electronically actuated between a first locked position and a first unlocked position, to prevent the first door from moving out of the first closed position while in the first locked position, and to allow the first door to move out of the first closed position while in the first unlocked position,
• a first cashbox door rotatably coupled to the cabinet and configured to rotate between a second closed position and a second open position, to cover a cashbox opening of the internal cashbox portion and prevent access to the internal cashbox portion in the second closed position, and to provide access to the internal cashbox portion in the second open position,
• a cashbox door lock mechanism configured to be electronically actuated between a second locked position and a second unlocked position, to prevent the first cashbox door from moving out of the second closed position while in the second locked position, and to allow the first cashbox door to move out of the second closed position while in the second unlocked position, and
• a radio frequency (RF) receiver coupled to the cabinet and configured to receive wireless RF signals having data;
• and
• a controller having one or more processors and one or more memories that store instructions for controlling the first door lock mechanism and the cashbox door lock mechanism, wherein the instructions are configured to cause the one or more processors to:
• receive first data from the wireless RF signals having the first data and received from a first wireless device at the RF receiver,
• determine whether the first data is associated with unlocking the first door and unlocking the first cashbox door,
• cause, in response to determining that the first data is associated with unlocking the first door and not associated with unlocking the first cashbox door, the first door lock mechanism to move into the first unlocked position and the cashbox door lock mechanism to remain in the second locked position,
• cause, in response to determining that the first data is associated with unlocking the first cashbox door and not associated with unlocking the first door, the cashbox door lock mechanism to move into the second unlocked position and the first door lock mechanism to remain in the first locked position, and
• cause, in response to determining that the first data is associated with unlocking the first door and unlocking the first cashbox door, the first door lock mechanism to move into the first unlocked position and the cashbox door lock mechanism to move into the second unlocked position.
