Technical Manual Important Safeguards When installing or servicing the Genesis, always have this manual available for quick and easy reference and always follow these basic safety precautions: Ensure that the machine is situated on a strong horizontal surface (see Specifications Table page 6), at a convenient height and in a position where it is not likely to be knocked off.
2.8 kg - 1075 cups Water Filter Genesis machines fitted with a paperless freshbrew brewer or CoEx® espresso brewer must be connected to the water supply via a scale inhibiting water filter. CMS recommend and supply the Brita AquaQuell Compact water filter.
Technical Manual Section 2 - Installation Procedure Important! It is essential that personnel responsible for installing, commissioning and servicing the machine understand the following: The installation and commissioning of the machine should only be carried out by trained and authorised service engineers. All water and electrical services must be correctly and safely connected.
Connect the hose to the inlet valve located on the rear of the machine. Ensure that the seal is correctly fitted. Ensure that all water supply fittings are tight. Freshbrew & B2C Machines: Genesis machines fitted with a CoEx® brewer must be connected to the water supply via a water filter. This filter...
Technical Manual Commissioning Procedure The following procedure must be carried out by a trained installation engineer before the machine can be used for the first time. Ensure that the electrical and water services to the machine are connected correctly and turned on. Ensure that the waste tray is fitted correctly to the machine.

Section 7 - Technical Information Water Services The mains water supply provides water for the heater tank fitted in Instant & Freshbrew machines, or the pressure system fitted to Espresso (B2C) machines. Water enters at the rear of the machine through a solenoid operated inlet valve operating at 24v DC, which opens or closes the water supply as required.
Technical Manual Ingredient Dispense The ingredients required for making up either an instant or freshbrew drink are contained in ingredient canisters and are dispensed by means of an auger located in the base of each canister. Each auger is driven by a 24v DC 130 rpm motor.
Technical Manual The mechanism is operated by a 24v DC 50 RPM motor. The motor is connected to a pinion which engages with a rack on the dispense arm. This mechanism is used to move the dispense head backwards and forwards. A micro switch, fitted to the rear of the dispense head chassis detects the home position (head withdrawn/not dispensing).
Technical Manual period no cups have been detected the machine will display the “Out of Cups” message. N.B. An illustration showing the parts breakdown for the Cup Drop Unit is included in Section 13 - Spare Parts (see page 159). Waste Level Probes The waste level probes, fitted to the underside of the machine, detect the water level in the waste tray.
Technical Manual CoEx® Brewer (B2C Machines) The unique CoEx® combined coffee and espresso brewer provides both freshly brewed coffee along with fresh coffee from beans through the same unit. The unit is driven by a 24v DC, 13 RPM motor, controlled by a micro switch. The switch sends logic signals to the controller during vend and initialise operations, indicating its position.
Where possible the change giver will return the appropriate amount of change to the customer. 7.16 Coin Blocker For Genesis machines fitted with a change-giver, a logic ‘low’ level from the vending machine controller will disable any coin acceptance. 7.17 Card/Key System The card system fitted to the machine communicates with the vending machine controller using the same principle as the change giver.
Technical Manual Section 8 - B2C (Espresso) System Genesis B2C machines are capable of producing high quality espresso based drinks through the unique CoEx® brewer unit either independently (Espresso, Americano), or in conjunction with the soluble product (Cappuccino, Caffe Mocha etc). The machine can also vend high quality freshbrew coffee from pre-ground product.
