BEVMAX REFRESH 6 MEDIA TROUBLESHOOTING
TROUBLESHOOTING DIAGNOSTIC LIGHTS
With the New BevMAX Refresh 6 Media, troubleshooting is simpler, but it is important to know how to follow
the clues the Vending Machine is presenting. Utilizing error codes while focusing on the Peripheral Boards
controlling each motor or main component will lead you to a conclusion quickly.
The inner workings of the New BevMAX Refresh 6 Media are greatly simplified. The AC Distribution Box sends AC
Voltage through an Environmental Board contained within the AC Distribution Box to the Refrigeration Unit,
Evaporator Fan Motor, and the OMRON Power Supply.
In turn, the OMRON Power Supply returns 24VDC to the Environmental Board within the AC Distribution Box,
which sends 24DCV to the Media Atlas H Board and 24VDC to the Y Motor Board, X Motor Board and Port Board.
The Media Atlas H Board then sends 5VDC to the Environmental board and it distributes the 5VDC to the
Cabinet X, Y, and the Cup Board. The Atlas H also sends 5VDC to the Port Control Board. These Peripheral Boards
convert the run 5VDC to 3,3VDC. The 24VDC is used by the peripheral boards to operate the 24VDC brushless
motors. The motor power is converted by the peripheral board to operate the motors and is not measureable
with a standard volt-meter. The Brushed Port Motor is operated with 24DCV and can be read by a volt meter.
Peripheral Board’s Green Status Light
Example - X or Y Motor Board Status Light
Each of the 5 Peripheral Boards has a Green Status Light. A fast blinking Green Status Light indicates that the
Peripheral Board has power and is communicating with the Media Atlas H Board, acknowledging the Peripheral
Board is good. A Green Status Light slowly blinking indicates the Peripheral Board has power but is not receiving
communication from the Media Atlas H Board, indicating there is a Peripheral Board, Media Atlas H Board, or
harness connection problem. No status light indicates the Peripheral Board is not receiving 5VDC or
Communication. Refer to TROUBLESHOOTING SECTION for steps to determine possible cause.
Peripheral Boards Green Status Light provide additional various lighting patters used to indicate the status of the
individual Peripheral Boards. They include:
Power on / Reset – a slow brightening and then slow diming of the Green Status Light that takes 3 to 5 seconds
to complete. This happens once each time the Board is powered on and/or reset. If the Green Status Light
slowly brightens and dims continuously indicates the software was not loaded properly.
Heartbeat – a heartbeat of the Green Status Light starts right after the “Power on / reset” indication and
continues until the peripheral first receives a message from the Media Atlas H Board. Once a message is
received from the Media Atlas H Board the heartbeat will not be shown again. Note: on a New BevMAX Refresh
