FASTER GCD – Issue 03
Command 55 Price display enable multifunction:
(if present)
To set the following option ONLY, you must press the "Programming Button" twice
consecutively, signalled by the sound of the buzzer, to access the second menu level.
The display shows "Command 00". To exit programming mode, press the button "ESC".
NOTA BENE: if Command 55 is programmed at the first level of the menu, steps "one", "two" and "seven"
will be available.
Programming at the second level is normally done when the kit is installed, every time one or more price
display bars are installed, or when the drawer configuration is changed.
To change the prices, follow the instructions given in the use and maintenance manual. Every time the prices
are changed, when you close the door they are automatically updated on the display bar screen.
Step one: the system requires enabling of the functions: 1 = enabled; 0 = not enabled. If the connection
between the price display and the display control board is not interrupted, the checksum and software version
of the board appear on the display; to continue the setting of the other steps, press button "ENTER".
Step two: next you are requested to indicate on which drawers the price bar display is installed. Confirm the
presence for each drawer (1 = present: 0 = not present). Drawer 1 refers to the first one from the top. The
request covers all the configurations up to a maximum of 7 drawers.
Step three: on the door display, a request appears, for each drawer, to allocate the corresponding address
allocation to each price display bar.
Press the button on the price display bar located on the right hand side, as highlighted in the figure. At each
allocation you will hear a beep to indicate that the allocation has been successful.
Step four: the system asks you of you wish to change the machine configuration (e.g. from single spiral to
double spiral). Press "ESC" if the configuration remains as it is, press "B" if you wish to change it.
Step five: set the number of selections present in the vending machine (number of motors).
Step six: the system displays, on the display bar, the detected configuration. If the configuration is correct
press "ESC", otherwise if you press "ENTER". In this case the system makes it possible to configure each
drawer: enter the number of the drawer and select the type ("standard", "sandwich" or "custom", depending
on the mechanical configuration of the drawer itself ) and press ENTER to save the selection. The result will
appear immediately on the display bar. If the configuration is correct the wording associated with each
selection will be centred with regard to the partitions that delimit each selection. If you select the "custom"
drawer, you must enter the number of display bar characters reserved for each drawer selection (in this case
too the result will appear on the display bar). Press ESC at the end of the drawer configuration procedure to
pass to the next step
Step seven: the system asks for the price inserted for the selection to appear on the price display bar. Press
ENTER to execute the function
Command 56 Setting the back-lighting parameter:
For each price display bar, you set the back-lighting value in stand-by mode: value 3 = maximum lighting;
value 2 = 75% lighting; value 1 = 50% lighting; and value 0 = 25% lighting.
