Determine the optimal installation position: Place the VENCUBE as close as possible to the machine controls and payment systems. Make sure that the controls are easily accessible. Note the cable length. Glue the base plate (holder) and screw it. (Image 1) If gluing is not possible, the assembly click holder must be screwed diagonally to the designated points in the machine with at least 2 screws1). The screw heads must be complete Sit flush and must not protrude. 1) Hardened countersunk self-drilling screw, ∅ 3.5 according to DIN 7504 Clip the VENCUBE into the base plate. (Image 2) Remove the machine controls cover. The machine must be voltage-free! Disconnect all existing payment systems (1, 2) from the machine control. (Image 3) Connect the cables from the VENCUBE: Connect the (MDB) master connection (3) from the VENCUBE to the vending machine control. (Image 4) Connect the (MDB) slave port (4) to all existing payment systems (5). If necessary, use a Y-cable. (Image 5) If possible, glue the antenna (6) behind a plastic cover. (Image 6) Route the antenna cable. Lay all cables professionally with cable ties. Never use the existing door switch of the machine, this can destroy the Vencube. Always connect the door switch as closer to plug 1 with the Vencube. Use connector "COM" and connector "NO" from the switch.
