7 - PROGRAMMING
This chapter describes how to set and/or change the parameters
programmed on the vending machine.
It is then advisable to read it carefully, performing the intervention
only once the proper sequence of operations to be performed has
been understood.
In order to better understand the issue, it's necessary to define a
few terms that are going to be used in this chapter:
- The term "digit" stands for the number or the letter that together
with others, composes the "parameter" .
- The term "parameter" stands for the whole of the "digits" that
sets a certain function.
The Programming system is developed in four levels:
- The first level includes the five main items of the programming
menu;
- The second level displays all the functions of each program-
ming menu item;
- The third level displays the memorized settings for each pro-
grammable function;
- The fourth level displays the modifiable parameters of the func-
tions.
The five main items of the Programming menu are:
• system management
• payment systems
• drink preparation
• vending handler
• time management

It's the first main item of the Programming menu.
It allows to set the parameters concerning machine operation and
verify its use status (by reading the counters).
Moreover, its' possible to assign a code to the vending machine,
display the registration number and insert or modify the password
that gives access to programming.
The displayable counters refer to:
- coffee;
- water;
- drinks;
- soluble products (only D.A. 5P)
For each of them the counter reports the number of performed
vends and the executable ones. Beyond such limit the vending
machine will stop dispensing drinks.
Each counter may be zeroed.
The number of possible vends (BLOCKS) can be modified.
System Management allows to:
• change the maximum and minimum vending machine operat-
ing temperatures;
• change current date and time;
• insert text lines that will be visualized on the display during
drink dispensing, when the vending machine is on standby
and when it stops for out-of-service or due to a problem;
• activate the pre-selection that displays the balance cash amount
for drink dispensing.

Its' the second main item of the programming menu.
It allows the setting of all the following parameters associated with
the different payment systems:
• coin values;
• enabling multi-product dispensing (residual credit management);
• OVER-PAY time (residual credit confiscation).

Its' the third main item of the programming menu.
In model D.A. 5P, it allows the preparation of the five dispensable
drinks.
Each drink may be obtained by combining coffee bean grinding
with the soluble product and water. Dispensing shall be performed
according to the set sequence. The quantity of ground coffee shall
be set for each drink, together with the quantity of soluble product
and water, and the dispensing speeds of the soluble product and
water.
In model D.A. 3P, it allows the preparation of the three dispensa-
ble drinks.
Each drink is obtained from the combination of bean coffee grind-
ing and water. Each drink requires the setting of coffee and water
quantity.

It's the fourth main item of the programming menu.
In model D.A. 5P, it allows to set the value of four prices to be
associated with the five drinks.
In model D.A. 3P it allows to set the value of four prices to be
associated with the three drinks.

It's the fifth main item of the programming menu.
It allows to set the following vending machine functions to be per-
formed within certain time bands:
• free product dispensing;
• machine start up and shutdown time;
• time bands within which discounts or rises should be applied
to drink prices;
• hydraulic circuit automatic cleaning
