Drill five through holes with the dimensions shown in the following
template (the template is not to scale).
4.
Remove the four thread guards and loosely secure the mounting
panel (VRC4410043) to the vending machine using the four KEPS
nuts supplied. Hand-tighten them only.
5.
Temporarily hang the VRC2100 by partially opening and looping a
large paperclip through a hole in the mounting panel and a hole in
the VRC2100 housing.
6.
Plug the MDB cable supplied into the MDB connector on the bottom
edge of the VRC2100 circuit board, with the other end of the cable
routed into the vending machine through the hole made in step 3.
7.
Unplug the nearest MDB connector (such as the connector going to
the coin changer) and plug the VRC2100 MDB cable inline between
the coin changer and the cable previously going to the coin changer.
8.
Route the supplied network cable from the VRC2100 safely out the
back of the vending machine, and plug the cable into a nearby
10/100 Base-T campus network jack. Plug the other end of the
network cable into the network jack on the bottom edge of the
VRC2100 circuit board.
