5. The value of "X.XX" has two purposes:
a. The value of "X.XX" tells the machine how big a bill or coin to accept
even though there is not enough change in the coin mech to cover all
possible paybacks.
For example, enter 1.00. Therefore, the machine will take a dollar bill or
coin even though there is less than $1.00's worth of change. Entering
5.00 tells the machine to take a five even though there is less than
$5.00's worth of change, and so forth.
NOTE
This could cause a customer to be short-changed.
Entering 0.00 means that bills or coins will only be accepted if there is
enough change to cover them.
b. The value of "X.XX" tells the machine how much the customer is allowed
to overbuy a product. The customer will be short-changed when an
overbuy occurs.
Example:
For a value of $0.25: if there is no change in the machine and the cus-
tomer inserts a $1.00 bill. The customer can purchase a product for
$0.75 even though the change cannot be paid back. The customer will
be short-changed. Normally a purchase will not be approved unless all
change can be paid.
Entering 0.00 means that the vend will only be approved when the cor-
rect change can be returned (overbuy disabled).
6. Press until the display shows:
LOW.MSG X.XX
. The display will show
USE EXACT CHANGE
when the amount of available change in the coin
mechanism falls below the value of "X.XX". Enter a value with the number
keys. For example, if
LOW.MSG 1.00
is displayed, the
USE EXACT CHANGE
message is displayed when less than a dollar's worth of change is in the coin
mechanism.
7. Press one of the following is displayed:
DECLINE.ON
