What the CT3 does
Although there is a simulator function, The Vending Tester CT3 will not
simply act like a vending machine in normal operation; it goes much
deeper. It enables you to check all the functions of your devices. To
do so, it will not perform a simple sale. It will take all the messages
coming from the changer, bill acceptor, and cashless system and dis-
play them on the screen. It is a fantastic tool that you will enjoy for
many years to come.
On power up...
When you apply power to The Vending Tester CT3, it automatically
starts a self-test to see if all the internal functions are in good order.
As it performs this self-test, you can see the software version on the
display of your tester, followed by the current line voltage and the
mention PASSED if successful. This manual was written using firmware
version 1.5.
Then, the display will invite you to connect a device and press START to
begin. It is now safe to plug any coin mechanism or any bill validator
as no power is currently applied to any of the sockets until you press
start.
Refer to the proper section of this manual for full details on how to
test equipments. As there are still older equipments on the market
requiring a 117-volt source, be careful to apply the proper voltage to
your equipment. Failure to do so can result in serious damages to the
equipment under test.
-- IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTION --
The CT3 Vending Tester PRO was designed and built for a 120-volt 60
Hz power source (Canada, USA & México). If you live in a 220-volt 50
Hz zone, you will absolutely need a voltage converter to make the CT3
work. DO NOT MODIFY THE POWER CORD TO FIT IT IN A 220-VOLT
OUTLET. Applying 220 volts to the CT3 tester will instantly result in
serious damages to the tester as well as being a high safety hazard to
the operator. In addition, the Surge Protection function will not work
adequately as it was designed for a 60 Hz frequency.
