3. Press 6 to configure the motors. Each
switched motor is moved to the home
position (moving the motor only if it is not at
home) in addition to detecting connected
motors.
If the number of motors displayed does not
match the number of motors in the vendor,
press 1 * 2 to jog all the motors in the
vendor.
4. Watch the display for missing motors that
should be connected. The vendor will not
vend from a given helix when the motor is
missing
, jammed or has home switch
problems.
5. After the motors have been configured check
to make sure all the helices are in the home
position. If the end of a helix is not at its
lowest position in the column pull it out of the
motor, turn it until it is, and reinsert the helix
into the motor.
Note: S2 motors have no Home switches,
and will be left in random positions – this is
also true of S3 motors set for ‘Sensit’
operation.
Note: When not in Service Mode and with door
open, press # to force switched motors to
Home position (Not applicable to motors set
to “Sensit”. Refer to Section 6.8). Motors
already at home will not move.
Test Loading and Configuration
Before putting the vendor on location, it is a good idea
to determine the placement of products on the trays.
Place at least one product in each helix to check for
fit.
1. Remove the cardboard spacers and ties
securing the trays.
2. Make use of Section 5.3 for tray vertical
adjustments and Section 5.4 for tray column
configuration when configuring your vendor
to suit your product.
3. Make sure the product can slide in and out of
the helix easily. If the product is too snug, it
may cause the helix to jam during vending.
Place it in a helix with a larger opening.
4. Likewise, if the product is too loose in the
helix, it may not vend properly. Use a helix
with the smallest opening that will allow the
product to slide in and out freely (Refer to
Sections 1.4, and 5.5 through 5.9).
5. Place tall, narrow products in a column with
a candy pusher bar, which is an adjustable
bar used to push the product to one side of
the column. Typically these are installed in
columns 9 and 0 on the candy trays.
6. Make sure there is adequate clearance
between the tops of the packages and the
trays above when sliding the trays in and
out, and when the product is being vended.
7. This is also a good time to set the end
position of the helix to make sure the first
product is held securely in the helix. To do
this, vend a product from each column. The
control stops the helix the instant the sensor
detects a product falling in the hopper. The
end position of the helix will automatically be
set to the correct position when a product is
vended (Refer to 6.8.3 Motor Type to change
motor action).
8. If desired, the end position can be set
manually by pulling the helix out of the
motor, rotating it, and reinserting it in the
motor.
9. Test vend the product and add a helix
ejector if necessary. The helix ejector is a
plastic device installed on the front end of
the helix to kick out the product (Refer to
Section 5.8 Helix Ejector).
Installing Price Labels
After determining the product placement, install the
price labels. The labels are shipped in the envelope
with this manual.
1. Insert the bottom edge of the label in the
lower groove of the extrusion on the front of
the tray.
2. Carefully press in on the label until it bows
enough to snap into the top groove of the
extrusion.
Scrolling Prices
If the Scrolling Prices option is present, prices are
changed by simply rolling the price tape up or down.
A pencil eraser may help. To repair or re-configure
the tray, the covers simply snap on and off.
Setting Prices
After product placement and installation of the price
labels, set the prices into the vendor (Refer to Section
6.7 Price Settings).
1. To enter the service mode, press the mode
switch on the control board (Refer to Figure
3.1, or the decal inside the access door, for
the location of the mode switch).
2. Using the * or # keys, scroll through the
menu to “PRICE SETTINGS”.
3. Press 1.
4. Enter the selection for which you want to set
the price (example: 12).
5. Press 9 to edit or change the price.
