DATA LOGS  

 
The user can review recorded data on vendor temperature, 
power outages, and door openings. This data is sometimes 
helpful in diagnosing problems with the vendor. These logs are 
cleared whenever the software is changed, and once the 
maximum number of entries is reached, the oldest entry will drop 
from the list.  There are some special situations on these logs – 
please read the Notes indicated. 
 

TEMPERATURE –

 The temperature log contains temperature 

measurements taken at half-hour intervals over the previous 
48 hours. When you enter this submenu, the Display will 
show you to press “

1

” to move to the next ‘older’ reading or 

2

” to move up to the next ‘more recent’ reading.  After a 

brief delay, the program will begin at the most recent reading 
(#1). 

 

The reading number (1 through 96

NOTE

temperature and the date and time of the reading will be 
displayed. 
 
Press either “

1

” or “

2

” to step through the readings.  Press 

#

” to EXIT when you’ve finished.

on information. When you enter this submenu, the Display 
will show you to press “

1

” to move to the next ‘older’ event or 

2

” to move up to the next ‘more recent’ reading.  After a 

brief delay, the program will begin at the last power ON data 
(#1). 

 

The reading number (1 - 10

 NOTE

), then whether this record 

was for power ON or OFF, and the recorded temperature at 
the time will be shown on the top line, with the date and time 
of the reading displayed on the bottom line of the Display. 
Press either “

1

” or “

2

” to step through the readings. 

 
Press “

#

” to EXIT when you’ve finished. 

 

DOOR SWITCH 

– The door switch log records door openings 

and closings. Display will show you to press “

1

” to move to 

the next ‘older’ event or “

2

” to move up to the next ‘more 

recent’ reading.  After a brief delay, the program will begin at 
the last door OPEN data (#1). 

 

The reading number (1 - 10

 NOTE

), then whether this record 

was for door OPEN or CLOSED, and the recorded 
temperature at the time will be shown on the top line, with 
the date and time of the reading displayed on the bottom line 
of the Display. 

 

Press either “

#

” to EXIT when you’ve finished. 

 

NOTES:  In a new machine, or right after a software upgrade, 
temperature readings will not be taken  for 30 minutes, so you 
will not be able to enter the Temperature Menu. 
 
Records will not be displayed if they haven’t been recorded yet – 
so you will not have all 96 temperature readings until the new 
board or software upgrade has been operating for a full 48 hours.  
 
The temperature readings for an ambient (not chilled) snack 
machine will be shown as 125°.
