Technical Manual
4. The light emied by the LED is detected when no cups are present. With a stack of
cups present, the beam is broken. As the cups drop below the LED transmied light is
detected. If this is the case, the controller will index the cup tubes unl a full stack is
located. A turret locaon micro- switch ensures that the cup tubes stop centrally over
the cup ring.
Note: The turret motor will run unl the next stack is deposited into the cup splier. This
breaks the LED beam and the cup stack micro switch returns to its normally open state. The
motor will run unl it either nds the next stack or all the turret extrusions have been
checked. If no cups are present the “Out of Cups Please Insert Mug” message is displayed
on the LCD.
5. The cup stack index motor is protected by a me-out feature. The motor will rotate
for a maximum period of 60 seconds. If at the end of this period no cups have been
detected the LCD will display the “Out of Cups” message.
7.7 Waste Level Probes
1. The waste level probes are posioned in the waste bucket and detect the water level
in the bucket/tray.
2. The system consists of two probes. When the water level is high enough that both of
the probes are immersed in the water a message is displayed on the LCD indicang
the waste bucket/tray is full and the machine is disabled. The machine will remain in
this state unl the waste bucket/tray has been emped.
7.8 CoEx® Brewer (Espresso Machines)
The unique CoEx® combined coee and espresso brewer provides both freshly brewed
coee along with fresh coee from beans through the same unit. The unit is driven by a
24V DC 11 RPM motor monitored by a micro switch. The switch sends logic signals to the
controller during vend and inialise operaons indicang its home posion.
Please refer to Secon 8 for full details of the CoEx® brewer and its operaon.
7.9 Oltre Brewer
Machines may be ed with either one or two connuous belt Oltre brewers. The
chamber, base plate, lter belt and outlet elbows are dierent depending on whether you
are vending leaf tea or ground coee.
Two 24V DC 30rpm motors are used on these brewers, one to raise and lower the brewer
chamber the other to advance the lter belt. A cam operated micro switch signals to the
Main Controller whether the chamber is open or closed.
7.9.1 Coee Brewing
1. The coee outlet elbow and baseplate are colour coded yellow and the belt is white
with black stching.
2. The chamber clamps down onto the base plate and lter, water and coee is then
dispensed. Aer the brew me (set in the engineers program) has elapsed a 24V DC
peristalc pump draws the coee liquor through the lter and is pumped to a
whipper chamber where it can be whipped before being delivered into the cup.
