CONTROLLER
FUNCTIONS
|
|
This vending machine is equipped with a GVC1 (Global Vending
Controller 1).
SALES MODE
The vending machine automatically defaults to Sales Mode after it is
turned on. The snack vendor accepts deposits, pays out change and dispenses
product to the customer.
DISPLAY CREDIT
If credit has not been established and a selection is made, then the
price for that selection is displayed briefly. When money or credit is
accepted, then the amount of credit is displayed. If the payout tubes in the
coin mechanism are below the low-level sensors, the indicator light "USE
EXACT CHANGE" will light up.
MAKE SELECTION
If a selection is made and the accumulated credit is greater than or
equal to the price of the selection, then a vend attempt will take place. If
credit is less than the selection price, the price is displayed and will
flash.
VEND CYCLE
The normal home-switch-vend cycle will be used. Both the vend motor
and a vend timer are started.
• The selection motor rotates to the home-switch position.
• If there is a home-switch signal, then the vend is considered successful.
• If there is no home-switch signal and the vend timer has expired, then the
vend failed. The vend motor is shut down and "MAKE ANOTHER SELECTION"
indicator light is turned on. The customer can press selection buttons to
activate this or another motor or they can press the coin return button.

CREDIT
& COUNTERS
After a successful vend, the amount of remaining credit is displayed
until all coinage is paid back. The total non-reset table vend count is
incremented by one (1) and the total non-reset table cash value is
incremented by the price of the vended selection. The counter rollovers occur
at 999,999 and $999,999.99 respectively. The reset table vend count is incremented
by one. The reset table total cash value is incremented by the price of the
vended selection. If never reset, the counter rollovers occur at 999,999 and
$999,999.99 respectively. Test vends are not included in the counter
totals.

SERVICE MODE
The Service
Mode is used to access the
programming features of the controller: set price,
test vend, retrieve accounting information or set
custom program settings. If credit exists when
entering the Service Mode, it will be restored when
the vending machine is return to Sales Mode.

right corner of the controller cover. Press the
button to access the Service Mode programming
features. Press the button again to exit and return
to Sales Mode. If no key is pressed within 60
seconds while in Service Mode, then the controller
automatically exits to the Sales Mode.

While in Service Mode, the keypad is used to
navigate between the menu features and is also
used as an input device for keying in numerical
values as required by the controller program.

Button and/or keypad buttons.
