Free vend methods

There are two different methods to implement a free vend at the machine:

  1. Vencube makes free vend
  2. Machine makes free vend

EVA lists in Vensoft

Vencube makes free vend

Activate free vend

Setting via Ventool

Here the Vencube is switched to free vend with the help of the Ventool program.

The machine control must not be set to "Free vend" for this; a payment system interface must be activated (e.g., MDB). Furthermore, sales prices must also be set in the machine control.

A fake credit at 655.35 should trigger a display such as "Make selection" or "Please choose product".
