Hangry Vendors Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Simple question, my current board is a SBC. Can I install a SII OR SIID on this unit? The boards look similar if not identical, not sure though. thanks for all the help guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 LOL, SII is from the 80's. No, you have to use the SBC. Are you sure it's a 501E and not a P series machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lacanteen Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 The SBC replaced the S2D. The display harness is different, though I've never seen a 10 select 501E. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotcha. When I was speaking with the guy at DNS he made it seem like SBC predates S2D and that they were impossible to find because they were so old. this 501E is a special edition with a unique Dr Pepper themed front.

AZVendor Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I've never seen that model before. Is it still 8 columns or did they change it to 10 narrow columns? It was probably built before Crane bought them and effed up the company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was probably built before Crane bought them and effed up the company. I think those are standard E series Cabinets with 8 narrow/1 wide columns. Just more buttons on the door, like if it were a Coke Wave or Pepsi HVV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finding the online manual took some fine detective work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plushplaya Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 If it turns out you need an s2d board, I've got one as a spare. (Bought as a 2 pack on ebay) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryChris Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I really don't know what the SBC board but the MPC predates the sii board which predates the sii-d. And now the siii-d is the latest. I thought the SBC was for glassfronts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 (edited) The SBC board came after the Pegasus board was for soda machines and may have been an unneeded upgrade (like the Pegasus abortion was) to the SIID. That was about the time that DN sold themselves into slavery with Crane. Edited May 10, 2023 by AZVendor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryChris Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 That explains why I don't know much about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZVendor Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Like I said, the SBC was produced at the end of Dixie Narco's independence and the whole landscape changed when they were sold into servitude to Crane. The SIID is abundant because it had been in production for 15-20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
