TRAY SETUP
This section is used to establish the presence of and test the
motors that are present in your machine as it is configured. It is
also used to program the motors to operate per your preferences.
1. Test Motors
Enter the selection number to be tested, or press
*
to see the
following options for testing multiple motors.
a.
JOG TRAY
– All motor positions on the selected
tray will be tested. The display will show the number
of the motor being jogged, or it will show a message
that a motor is missing.
b.
JOG ALL
– All motor positions in the vendor will be
tested. Each motor will be turned only a very small
amount, so that products loaded in the vendor will
not be dispensed. The display will show the number
of the motor being jogged, or it will show a message
that a motor is missing.
c.
CHECK JAMMED
– The control will attempt to run
each motor that has caused a jammed motor error.
The status of the motor will be displayed afterward.
2. Link Motors
This function is performed by the Vagabond system in the
Touchless model. An explanation is provided below, but this
feature should never be enabled in the AMS Control Board.
The user can link selections to ensure even vending of dated
products, or other “space-to-sales” functions. Linked selections
are vended sequentially for better product rotation. Up to 40
groups
can have motors linked together
regardless of location or
tray
. The linked selection with the lowest number is the master
selection. All other linked selections are vended using the
selection number and price of the master selection. Entering the
selection number of any linked selection will default to the master
selection number, and the control will vend the next linked
selection in the sequence. If motors are linked- but not present
(or jammed), the next available motor will run.
From Tray Setup, select
2-Link Motors
.
Enter Selection:
then select from the following.
9- EDIT
– Use 1 & 2 to select desired link group.
*
saves
this
selection to
this
link group.
0- CLEAR
– This will unlink the current selection. The price will
revert to its original value. All other linked selections in that group
will remain unchanged.
* NEXT
– Press to increment by one selection. Any selection
number may be entered directly for faster access.
# EXIT
– Returns to the Tray Setup menu.
Repeat for each linked selection.
3. Motor Type
Motor Type allows the user to change the motor-stop and credit
deduction behavior. See the ‘Motor Types’ table below for more
details on the various settings available under this function.
Enter tray
– enter tray number to change motor type.
Press
1
to change motor type.
Press
#
to save and exit.
Press 2 to save entire vendor to this
motor type.
Note:
All motors on a tray must be of the same design (S2 or
S3), but trays with different motor types can be used in the same
vendor.
Motor Type Descriptions:
HomeSensor/
After a selection is made, the motor will make one full
turn and stop at home position. If a drop was detected
the users phone will read “Please take your products
and enjoy!”. If no drop is detected, the users phone will
read “Vend Failed” and he/she will not be charged for
the transaction.
Sensit
This
setting ignores the Motor’s home switch (if present)
completely. When the product is detected the motor is
stopped and the vend cycle is complete.
Home/
This
is similar to HomeSensor/, except that if no drop is
detected the motor will make 2 short jogs in an effort to
dislodge the product. If the motor stops
off
the home
position, the next vend will begin the process again: it
will stop at home and if a drop is detected the vend cycle
is complete. If not, try up to two jogs. This is similar to
the original Sensit sequence, and is the factory default
setting for all vendors.
Home_Only/
This setting
disregards the Sensit system, and will make
one complete turn and the users phone will read “Please
take your products and enjoy!” whether the vend was
successful or not.
Auto Sensor Recovery is an improvement to the AMS
Sensit system, that allows certain vends even when the
sensor system is blocked or malfunctioning. If Motor
Type is set to Home/Sensor/3 or Home /3, and
the sensor system is inoperable, the control will
automatically switch to Home_Only/3 and allow a vend.
Simply put, the sensors will be ignored, the helix will
make a full turn and the vend will be treated as
successful. Once the error is cleared, the vendor will
return to its original sensor setting.
Note
that this will
only work with the 23007 and 23007-01 motors, and
during this temporary mode, selecting an item with the
older Sensit 2 motor will read “selection unavailable”.
