Displays AS-*
where * is the current version #
2. Press Button 1 (or 2) to increment/decrement Version #
Displays AS.0? where ? is version 1 to 6
3. Press Button 3 to store Version Value
Displays set
4. Press Red Service Button or Reject to scroll to exit

Notes
-
When setting up a Motor Version a default Timing value will be assigned automatically, (see default value). This may need
to be changed (see timing value setting).
-
The default motor version is Version 2.
-
The VMC will return to Normal Mode (00.00) 60 seconds after the last button has been pressed unless the Red Service
Button has been pressed or the reject is pressed.
Timing Value
The timing value is a measure of time that allows the VMC to either ignore any signals from the motor until the time has expired, or
if the time has expired without any signals. Depending on the Version, the timing Value has different characteristics.
Generally speaking the timing value is set to the normal vend time. For example, if the vend normally takes 6 seconds to complete,
then set the timing value to 6. This allows for the VMC to ‘expect’ a home signal at the required time and to ignore any spurious
signals in the meantime. It also sets an appropriate delay after a ‘home’ should be expected, disabling power to the motor if this
home wasn’t reached. In this case the motor is inhibited, the appropriate error code is set and the money entered is returned to the
user.
The Vend cycle is Voltage and Load dependent so an approximate setting of the timing value needs to be set. The vend cycle, is
the time from motor start (when at home) to motor end (return to Home) in seconds. This translates directly to the timing value that
re-conditions the value for correct operation.
Operation
1. Press the Red Service Button to scroll to
Displays AS.—
2. Press Button 1 (or 2) to increment/decrement Value
Displays AS.** where ** is value 01 to 99
3. Press Button 4 to store Timing Value
Displays set
Notes
-
The current timing value is displayed whilst doing a test as Pl.**, where ** is current value
-
The timing Value can be set from 00 to 99.
-
For Version 1 Motors the default timing value is 7
-
For Version 2 Motors the default timing value is 7
-
The timing value reverts back to default every time a version change is set
-
The timing value cannot be individually assigned and applies to all outputs when set.
-
The VMC will return to Normal Mode (00.00) 60 seconds after the last button has been pressed unless the Red Service
Button has been pressed or the reject is pressed.
Negative Counter Sold Out Feature
Negative Counter can only be set and calibrated for each selection by entering Service Code nc . Selection can be incremented or
decremented from 1 to 5 using buttons 1 and 2 respectively and each shelf can be allocated a negative counter from --.00 to --.99,
where - - belongs to the shelf number. Negative counter value is incremented by button 3 and decremented by button 4. Each
configuration can be saved by button no. 5.
1.Operation
1. Press the Red Service Button Repetitively till LCD Displays:-
nC .- -
You are now in Negative Counter Setting Mode.
2.Press Selection Button 1 to increment the **.- - Value i.e shelf selection no (** no. of shelf).
The LCD will now display the incremented selection no.
