11.2 CHANGING THAW AND FREEZE SETTINGS

The THAW-FREEZE values should only be changed if the drink quality is not as expected.  Use the 
following steps to change THAW-FREEZE settings as necessary.  Before changing the 
THAW-FREEZE settings, verify that the brix and level control settings (see Section 10.1) are 
properly set.  THAW-FREEZE settings may not need changing if corrections are made to the level
control settings.

A. Changing the THAW-FREEZE Settings

1.

Access the service level by pressing the “FWD” button on the control panel until the 
“SERVICE MENU” displays.  Press the unmarked button on the center barrel, “MACHINE
SETTINGS” displays.

2.

Pressing the “FWD” button scrolls through the left, center, and right setting options.

3.

Press “SELECT” (on the barrel you wish to change) and “Level Control” displays.

4.

Press the “FWD” button until “THAW-FREEZE” displays.

5.

To change the THAW-FREEZE values, press “SELECT” and the number starts to flash.

6.

Press “FWD” to change to a higher setting or press the “BACK” button to change to a lower 
setting.

7.

Once the desired setting displays, press “SELECT” to save the new value.

8.

Press “CANCEL” and “L SIDE SETTING” displays.

9.

To change the other chambers, press “FWD” until “R SIDE SETTINGS” or 
C SIDE SETTINGS” displays.  Repeat Steps 3-7 above.

10. When settings are complete, press the “CANCEL” button until “Copyright” displays.

12. BEVTRAK OPERATION

Bevtrak is a feature on the FBD553D that enables the unit to dial a toll free number every night and 
download current status information about the unit as well as daily sales numbers.  The information is 
collected and cataloged on the FBD server and is readily available to subscribers via the Internet.  The
data available for viewing is:

Sales totals for each barrel in daily, weekly or monthly periods

Number of units not reporting in

Number of machines currently in an "out of" state

Number of machines in an "error" state

Total of hours in a "product out" state

Additionally, all machine settings can be viewed by qualified personnel to aid in trouble shooting problems
remotely.

12.1 NAVIGATING THE BEVTRAK MENU

A. To access the Bevtrak menu, press the "FWD" button on the control panel until the "SERVICE

MENU" appears.  Press the unmarked button on the center barrel panel group.  "MACHINE
SETTINGS" displays.  Press the "FWD" button repeatedly until "BEVTRAK" appears.  Press
"SELECT" to enter the Bevtrak menu.  See figure 7.3 for a layout of the FBD553D menu 
structure.

B. The following selections are in the Bevtrak menu:

Phone # 9/18668983004# - If the "9" is not needed to obtain an outside line, eliminate the "9/"

and place two additional # symbols at the end of the string.

Call - Pressing "SELECT" when this displays will initiate a call and the data exchange sequence

with the home server.

Hang up - Terminates the call sequence.
Reset Modem - Resets the modem should it stop working properly.
Bevtrak Enable = 1 - A value of 1 enables Bevtrak while a value of 0 turns it off.
Retry times = 50 - Number of times the unit will attempt to call the server.
Ret inv m = 6 (Retry interval minutes) - The wait time in minutes between retries.
