Preliminary
Power Requirements
The merchandiser is supplied with a service cord for the country of use and is terminated in a grounding type plug. The wall receptacle used for this merchandiser must be properly polarized, grounded, and of the correct voltage. Operating the merchandiser from a source of low voltage will VOID YOUR WARRANTY. Each merchandiser should have its own 15 Amp electrical circuit and that circuit should be protected with a circuit breaker or fuse conforming to local regulations.
1.Voltage Check - Place the leads of a voltmeter across the LINE (LIVE) and NEUTRAL terminals of the wall receptacle. The voltmeter should indicate 110-130 volts ac for 120 volt, 60 Hz locations, or 220240 volts ac for 230 volt, 50 Hz locations.
2.Polarity Check - Place the leads of a voltmeter across the LINE (LIVE) and GROUND terminals of the wall receptacle. The voltmeter should indicate 110-130 volts ac for 120 volt, 60 Hz locations, or 220240 volts ac for 230 volt, 50 Hz locations.
3.Noise Potential Check - Place the test leads of a voltmeter across the NEUTRAL and GROUND terminals of the wall receptacle. The meter should indicate 0 volts ac. A measurement greater than 1.5 - 2.0 volts ac could result in problems for the merchandiser's electronic circuitry caused by electrical noise.
NOTE
Any deviation from these requirements could result in unreliable performance from your merchandiser.
Unpacking the Merchandiser
Remove all packing materials from the interior of the merchandiser. Keep all documents; warranty cards, etc. Set aside the base plate kit (if present).

Controls and Indicators |
|
INTERLOCK SWITCH
When the monetary slide is open, this switch turns off the optional fan (if so equipped.)
MESSAGE DISPLAY
This is how the merchandiser communicates with the outside world. Customers can see messages about how much money they have put into the merchandiser. The message display also tells customers when a selection is sold out and when vending is free, inhibited, or discounted. The message display shows you what you are doing when you program the merchandiser, and can show you what is wrong if there is a failure.
SELECTION KEYPAD
The customer uses these switches to make selections.
COIN RETURN KEY
Pressing this button returns any coins that have been paid into the merchandiser prior to a vend.
CANCEL KEY
Pressing this button clears any selection keys.
BILL ACCEPTOR (OPTIONAL)
Accepts bills in various denominations, depending upon the type of bill validator, and how the merchandiser is configured.
SERVICE KEYPAD
The service keypad is located on the inside of the monetary section. It gives service personnel the means to program, retrieve data from, and view diagnostic information about, the merchandiser.

Positioning the Merchandiser
WARNING
This merchandiser is only rated for installation in an INDOOR location.
Move the merchandiser to its approximate position. (There are some procedures you need to do before it is in its permanent location.) Plug in your merchandiser and turn the power switch to ON.
•You can position this merchandiser anywhere in a bank of machines. It can even be placed on an end flush against a side wall.
•The merchandiser should be located at least one inch away from the back wall.
•There should be enough room in front of the merchandiser for the door to move freely.
Now that you have placed your merchandiser near its permanent location, you need to set up
some of the special options you may have............... |
Go on to the next page and continue with |
the snack section set up. |

Setting Up Trays to Vend Products |
|
These instructions will guide you through setting up your trays for vending. You will be asked to determine if your tray can physically hold the products you intend to vend. If not, you will be directed to other procedures which will help you get them set up. Follow these nine steps for each tray in your merchandiser:
1.Make sure the tray is in the loading position.
2.Is the column wide enough for the intended product? If so, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, set up your tray to vend wider products (see below, this page). When you're done, return to step 3 in this procedure.
3.Will the products fit between the spiral turns? If so, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, change the spiral.
4.Will the product pass under the tray immediately above? If so, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, reposition the tray and guides.
5.Will the product touch products on either side? If not, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, install a product spacer.
6.Load products in the tray.
7.Return the tray to the vending position.
8.Install the price rolls.
9.Install the selection ID numbers.
Setting Up Trays to Vend Wide Products
The following steps will help you configure your trays to vend wide products. When you have completed the procedures called out in each step, return to the next step in the procedure. When you are done with the entire wide product steps, return to the set-up procedures above.
1.Remove the tray from the merchandiser, unplug harness and place on a flat surface.
2.Based on the size of the product you want to vend, decide how many spiral positions it will occupy. Please remember that the leftmost spiral in the group must have an ODD ID number (1, 3, 5, etc.) For example, if a product is three spirals wide, the left spiral will be ID number 1, and the right spiral will be ID number 3. Be careful how wide you set up for, because really wide products could get hung up in the delivery door.
3.Remove the column dividers inside the group. In the example of three spiral positions, you would be removing the dividers between spiral ID numbers 1 and 2, and 2 and 3.
4.If your group only consists of 2 spirals, replace the rightmost motor with a spiral bearing and gear, and install a gear on the leftmost motor. Skip to step 8.
5.Remove all spirals in the group except the leftmost spiral.
6.Do one of the following:
a.If your group has an ODD number of spirals (3, 5, etc.) remove the harnesses from all motors in the group except the leftmost one. To the rightmost motor, connect the harness from the motor immediately to its left.
b.If your group has an EVEN number of spirals (4, 6, etc.) remove the harnesses from all motors inside the group (leave the harnesses connected to the leftmost and rightmost motors).
7.Install a spiral at the rightmost position in your group. Make sure it has the same product capacity and is opposite to the one in the leftmost position.
8.Return the tray to the merchandiser. See “Installing Standard Trays in the Merchandiser” on page 14
9.Electronically couple the motors as needed Return to step 3 in the section “Setting Up Trays to Vend Products” on page 12, above.

Installing Standard Trays
Study this procedure before you install a tray for the first time; while you are holding the tray you will not be able to see this area.
Proceed as follows:
1. Place the back of the tray in the machine so the back tabs on the tray are behind the tray rail rollers.
2. Slide the tray straight back into the machine, insuring that the tray axle stop is engaged in the tray rail. Keep pushing the tray back until it hits the front stop.
3. Lift the front of the tray, so the stop built into the tray clears the roller. Push the tray forward and let it return to horizontal. It will “lock in” to place.
4.Load the tray harnesses into the
cabinet, over the tray rail and into the cabinet behind the slide out monetary. Reach through the hole provided in the monetary section and grab the tray harness. Plug the Tray harness into the correct PCB tray harness header.
5.Slide the harnesses up into the
round hole provided and secure them with the plastic grommet. Pull the slack of the harnesses back into the cabinet.

WHEN ARE GEARS USED?
•Gears are used to mechanically couple the spirals together.
•This happens whenever you have two spirals and only one motor for vending a selection.
WHERE ARE THE GEARS PLACED?
•The gear is placed between the back of the tray and the spiral coupler.
HOW IS THE GEAR ORIENTED?
•There are two possible orientations for the gear:
•There are two rules to follow when orienting gears:
RULE 1 – The gears for single spiral selections next to each other cannot use the same gear orientation.
RULE 2 – All gears for a single coupled or double spiral selection must use the same orientation.

Moving Trays Up or Down
This merchandiser can be adjusted to vend taller products. Some guidelines must be followed:
•Keep in mind that when you increase the product height available to a tray by lowering it, you will be decreasing the product height available to the tray below.
•If a tray is in the lowest position, the tray below it should not be in the highest position.
•If a tray is in the highest position, the tray above it should not be in the lowest position.
•You will need to experiment with various tray positions to get the best results for your products.
Proceed as follows:
1.Remove the tray from the merchandiser. (See“Removing Standard Trays” on page 13).
2.Remove the screw that secures the right tray guide rail to the front guide mounting channel as shown.
3.Tap up on the guide rail and unseat the guide rail tabs from the channel slots.
4.Pull the guide rail away from the front and rear guide mounting channels.
5.Move the guide rail to the desired position.
6.Insert the guide rail tabs into the mounting channel slots as shown.
7.Tap down on the guide rail to seat the tabs in the channel slots.
8.Replace the screw that secures the guide rail to the front guide mounting channel.
9.Repeat steps 2 through 8 for the left guide rail.
