selections, using a single selection number. 10 virtual
selections can be programmed (70 to 79).
RETURN OF VIRTUAL PRICE
This function is used to define, in the event of failed second
dispensing in a virtual selection, not to cash the price of the
second selection (only if an MDB payment system or
validator are used). With other payment systems, it can be
decided whether or not return the entire amount.
SELECTIONS WITH TWO MOTORS

so that two motors are used for each single selection.
With this function the operation of two motors can be
combined, specifying the selection number of the second
motor.
The first motor number will be the selection number, while
the selection number of the associated motor will remain
disabled.
Important notice!
After a failure to the motors of these selections, the
machine configuration procedure in the “Spiral/Selec-
tion” menu must be followed.
