MISCELLANEOUS
This set of functions contains some sub-menus, used less
frequently, which permit control of the functions described
below.
PASSWORD
Entering the password
It is a 5-digit numeric code which is required to access
programming.
The default value of this code is set to 00000.
Enabling the password
This function is used to enable the option of requesting the
password to access programming; the password request
is disabled by default.
ENERGY SAVING
In order to save electric energy when the machine is not
in use, this function is used to switch off the external
lighting.
2 switch-off time bands can be programmed on a weekly
basis; the week days are identified by a progressive
number (1=Monday, 2=Tuesday etc.).
The same time band cannot include days from different
weeks.
If time bands are set overlapping, the machine will remain
switched on for the shorter period.
For example, in order to set energy saving time bands to
run the vending machine from 07.00 to 22.00 during the
week and leave it switched off on the weekend, the time
bands should be set, using the special menu, as indicated
in the table below.

Data on the machine operations is stored in both general
counters and relative counters, which can be reset without
losing total data.
