Initial Set-up

Power Requirements

This merchandiser requires power as shown in the following table. NOTE: Each merchandiser should have its own electrical circuit.

Power Requirements

Country Volts Frequency (Hz) Current (Amps)

U.S., Mexico, and Canada 115 60 20 International 230 50 13 - 16

This merchandiser is supplied with a service cord for th e country of use and is terminated in a grounding type plug. The wall receptacle used f or this merchandi ser must be properly polarized, grounded, and of the correct voltage. Operating the merchandiser from a sour ce of l ow vol tage will VOID YOUR WARRANTY. Each merchandiser should have its own electrical circuit and that circuit should be pro tected with a circuit breaker or fuse conforming to local regulations.

Voltage Ch ec k - Place the leads of a voltmeter across the LINE (LIVE) and NEUTRAL terminals of the wal l receptacle. The voltmeter should indicate 110-130 volts ac for 120 volt, 60 Hz locations, or 220-240 volts ac for 230 volt, 50 Hz loca tions.

Polarity Check - Pl ace the leads of a voltmeter across the LINE (LIVE) and GROUND terminals of the wa ll re ceptac le. The voltmeter s hould i ndicat e 110-130 volts ac for 120 volt, 60 Hz locations, or 220-240 volts ac for 230 volt, 50 Hz loca tions.

Noise Po te nt ia l Che ck - Pla ce the l eads of a vo ltmete r acros s the NEUTRAL and GROUND terminals of the wall receptacle. The voltmeter should indicate 0 volts ac. A measurement greate r than 1.5-2.0 volts ac coul d result in problems for the merchandiser' s electronic circui try caused by electrical noise.

Any deviation from these requirements could result in unreliable performance from your merchandiser.

Water Requirements

If your location has chemically softe ned water, one of the following steps is advised:

• Have a non-softened supply line run to the merchandiser

• Contact your local water filter supplier f or information and suggestions

Well water can also be used in the Cold Drink Center. However, you should have it checked for levels of carbonates and al kalies. Contact your water filter supplier if these values are relatively high.

Water Pressure

Minimum water pressure: 20 psi (138.0 KPa) at 1/2 gallon/minute Maximum water pressure: 80 psi (522.0 KPa) at 1/2 gallon/minute

3280020 Page 1 August, 2003

Cold Drink Center (327/328) Operator’s Guide

Supply Line Requirements

Locate supply line at the rear of the merchandiser. Equip the line with a shut-off valve.

Flushing Water Supply Line

Flush the water supply line before connecting it to the merchandiser. A minimum of five gallons is usually required before connecting the merchand iser to the sup ply line. To avoi d int roducing possible water line contaminants into the merchandiser, DO NOT flush the merchandiser water system.

Positioning The Merchandiser

You can position thi s merchandiser anywhere in a bank of machines. It can even be placed on the end flush against a side wall.

Leave enough room in front of the merchandiser for the door to move freely. BE SURE THE REAR OF THE MERCHANDISER IS AT LEAST 6" AWAY FROM

THE WALL. THIS WILL ENSURE WARM MOIST AIR IS VENTED OUT OF THE MACHINE'S INTERIOR AND THE REFRIGERATOR CONDENSER FAN IS NOT OBSTRUCTED.

NOTE

This machine is onl y rated for install ati on in an indoor location.

For most of your programming jobs, you will be using the ser vice keypad, convenientl y located on the monetary panel. The service keypad has 16 keys. The three columns on the left are the MODE keys. The right hand

column contains the MOVEMENT keys.

he Selection Switch Panel

The selection switch panel is also located on the monetary panel. Unlike the service keypad, it is accessible when the cabinet door is cl osed. These are the keys the customer will use to make selections. You can also use these keys during programming procedures.

mode. In this example, you can view stored sale data.

THE SECONDARY PURPOSE This is the key's "second job". For examp this key can be used to delete a charact when you are edi ting cu sto m messages.

These keys are your "leg s", which let you move up and down the list of tasks. They let you continue from one step to the next in programming procedures.

This is your "activa te" or " choose" key. It "opens a door" to additional information and lets you begin a programming task once you are inside of a mode. Sometimes, it is used as a toggle switch to show you your choices during a programming task.

This key can be used before running a function, or to choose “ALL” in a multiple selection.

This is your "end" key. Pressing it one or more times will move you back to the start of the mode, or all the way back to the standby message.

Some Conventions:

All programming procedures assume that you are starting with the standby mes-

sage showing in the display. If not, just press until you get there.

Each programming procedure is highli ghted by a pointing hand: so it will stand out.

Definitions and helpful information will appear in shadow boxes:

Helpful Hint

When you see the word CONTINUE at the end of a function, it means to press

until you return to the standby message.

SureVend™

SureVend™ ensures that a cup is always available in the cup station before any money is collect ed or product delivered. The sens ing system is a beam of infra red light across the cup station that is broken by the cup when it falls into position.

The SureVend™ software monito rs the cup station sensor during the time the cup ring is cycled and for three seconds afterward. If a cup is not detected, the soft ware will first determine if a second cup ring with the same size cups exist s and will then tr y to dr op a c up from t he s econd ri ng. I f the s econd ring also fai ls t o drop a cup or is not usable, the sof twa re will rep eat the at tempt f rom the firs t cup ri ng to attempt to clear any j ams in t he cup delivery area . Each ring wi ll be t ried up to two times. If a cup is still not detected by the infra red sensor then several things hap pen:

• Any ring that failed twice in a row is placed temporarily out-of-service for a length of time that is determined by the user,

• The customer's credit is eit her restored for another vend att em pt or is returned au toma ti c ally,

• Three beeps sound and the message another size cup r ing is available), or the message the event that no other cups are avail able. The customer may always get a refund by pressi ng the coin return button.

Spec ial rules exist to protect both the customer and the operat or from loss. First and foremost, th e customer is protected because no drink is spoiled nor money lost because a cup fails to fall to the cup station. The customer is given every chance to get his original choice of cup size by tr ying at least twice per ring to eject a cup. If two rings are available with the same cup size, the system will alt er nately try to vend a cup fr om each ri ng until the cup is delivered or both rings are placed out-of-service.

The operator is prot ected by the anti-j ackpot program of the system . It is conceivable that a customer could prevent cups from reachi ng the sensing area of the cup station in order to steal the cups and then get a refund for the vend. Under the SureVend™ Anti-Jackpot system, the operator can lose no more than two cups in a row per ring. Then that ring is temporarily placed out-of-service both to protect t he custo mer an d to di scou rage th eft . T he amoun t of ti me th at the cup r ing is out-of-service is programmable from 0 to 99 minutes. After the time has elapsed, th e cup ring wi ll retur n to servi ce but the co unt of the two failure s is kept. If the previous problem was theft, then the next vend attempt from that ring will be successful and the count of the two previous failures will be erased. If the prob lem is an actual system failure, then the third failure will permanently place that cup ring out of service until a service technician visits the machine.
