FREE VEND BONUS
This function, compatibly with the national laws, permits
the dispensing of a free product every certain programma-
ble number of sold selections. In any case the free
selection is random within the programmed number. The
machine emits an intermittent sound signal and the dis-
play indicates the message “Free selection”.
SPIRALS/SELECTIONS
This set of functions is used to define the selection control
parameters.
MACHINE CONFIGURATION
This function is used to detect and store the number and
position of the trays and of the selection motors.
VIRTUAL SELECTIONS
This function is used to define a pair of selections that can
be sold at a price different from the sum of the two
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 sys-
tems, it can be decided whether or not return the entire
amount.
SELECTIONS WITH TWO MOTORS
In order to dispense long products, dividers can be fitted
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.
ROTATION SELECTIONS
With this function it is possible to create 6 groups of spirals
with the same selection number that are activated by
rotation, to increase the autonomy of the same product
and make dispensing uniform.
The grouped spirals of a single selection must be next to
each other.
All selections belonging to the same group must have the
same price.
For correct safety management of the selections it is
advisable that also a dispensing detection device be
installed in the machine.
PRODUCT CODE
This function is used to assign a 4-digit identification code
to each spiral for processing the statistics.
DIRECT SELECTIONS
The vending machine can be fitted (as standard feature or
as optional according to the model) with a 5-button keypad
to which allocate a group of selection.
After enabling the direct selection function,
it will be possible to allocate a group of selections to each
key by specifying the start and end numbers of the series.
The selections, as long as in a sequence, can be also from
different trays. The products are dispensed alternating
from each of the spirals that are grouped in a direct
selection.
All selections belonging to the same group must have the
same price.
For correct safety management of the selections it is
advisable that also a dispensing detection device be
installed in the machine.
PHOTOCELL PARAMETERS
The vending machine can be fitted (as standard feature or
as optional according to the model) with a device that, by
means of photocells, detects the passage of dispensed
products.
When this device is installed, the following can be moni-
tored:
- Error before dispensing; when at the selection start the
photocell beam is not read.
- Error after dispensing; when the motor fails during
dispensing.
- Error for no product; when the device does not detect
the passage of a product during dispensing.
In these cases the machine can be programmed to:
- set a rotation time for each spiral for settling beyond
the normal rotation;
- return or not the paid amount;
- block further selections for the involved spiral.
DISPENSING COMPARTMENT LOCK PARAMETERS
The dispensing compartment can be fitted (as standard
feature or as optional according to the model) with a lock
device.
This function is used for deciding whether leaving the
dispensing compartment “always free” or “unlock it with
dispensing”.
In “unlock with dispensing” mode the dispensing compart-
ment hatch is unlocked only for a certain period of time,
programmable at between 1 and 10 minutes, after each
product selection. In this case it is possible to enable the
function that places the vending machine out of service for
a certain period of time, programmable at between 1 and
10 minutes, if the dispensing compartment hatch stays
open.
The machine is placed out of service if the lock device is
always closed during dispensing.
