introduction
The APi 120/320 features the MasterVend Control System and MasterMenu system which provide a user friendly menu
to setup and configure the machine. The simple operation and built in flexibility of this system allows each user to
customize the menu system to their preference . The system can be configured to display service and operational mode
messages in any of six different languages and support up to 110 selections. Robust testing capability as well as
extensive diagnostics and error reporting facilities are built in to provide ease of maintenance.
The APi 320 Series machine is designed to be used as a refrigerated or frozen, pre-packaged food merchandiser.
Changing the machine between refrigerated and frozen is accomplished by choosing between food or frozen on the
LogiCenter (LCB) board. In addition there is a default setting (jumper) on the Food Driver Board (FDB) to ensure that if
the FDB should loose communications with the LCB, the refrigeration unit will maintain the temperature of the default
setting, refrigerated or frozen. All APi 320 series machines are companion machines and are dependent upon a Control
module or 120 series snack merchandiser to control the machine.
The Control module is a cabinet that mounts to the right side of the API 320.The Control module contains a power
supply, LogiCenter board (LCB), selection keypad, coin mech and any other peripherals. The Control module is capable
of supporting up to two machines. When two machines are attached to one Control module, each machine has the
capability of being set up independently as a food or frozen.The APi 120 Series snack machine is capable of supporting
one 320 Series merchandiser.
