Cokedealer Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 The manual I'm following doesn't mention where to toggle the display message on or off. Can anyone help me out? I'm sure it must be in some sort of sub menu that i keep missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fermo Vending Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Press the blue service button, navigate to the USER menu by holding buttons 1 & 2 together, hold button 1 to enter the USER menu, then press buttons 1 & 2 again until you get to SSM. Press and hold button 1 until the machine says "ON". Here's a helpful manual: https://www.dsvendinginc.com/images/pdf-manuals/S2D-Program.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cokedealer Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 This doesnt work for me Remember its a coke branded machine. Here is the manual I'm using. chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://rc.cranems.com/Uploads/SIID%20Coke%204%20Button%20Programming%20Manual803,902,490.31.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fermo Vending Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 If there's an SIID board in it there should be a blue service button (to my knowledge). I've never owned a coke machine, so it's possible their programming doesn't allow for the SSM. I don't see that option in the manual you sent either. Have you found any section of the menu that allows for USER programming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZVendor Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Nothing snarky here at all. If you have the aforementioned USER setting then your message might be something like ICE COLD COCA COLA since it's a Coke door. I don't remember if Coke had the USER submenu removed or not.

lacanteen Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I just looked at the Coke programming manual. There are no provisions to activate/deactivate that feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya its weird. I know for a fact it was scrolling on the machine before I started reprogramming it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendo Mike Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 If it's a default setting for Coke vendors, you should be able to pull the battery long enough to dump the ram. Reprogram for pricing, sts, etc. It should automatically scroll that message IF it's default for that firmware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad because it would make the machine a lot more inviting if it did have that message scrolling on the display. The good news is, forcing the hard reset on the machine made me have to re configure all the pricing and configuration codes, forcing me to better understand some of the inner workings of the machine. Any more advice is welcome. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendo Mike Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 If it helps, the scrolling message isn't likely to increase/decrease sales. As long as the customer knows what's in the machine and what the prices are, that's really all they look at in most cases. Unless the display is showing an error or "sold out" messages. What is the firmware number on the eprom chip? Coke's should be 390.xx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cokedealer Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 390.51B is the firmware number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendo Mike Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 That's a coke firmware. I'm surprised that the Coke message isn't a default setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cokedealer Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 yup... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendo Mike Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 There may have been firmware released after 390.51B to update for readers or something. I could be mistaken. If there is an update, it might benefit you with regard to readers as well as having that scrolling message. It may be worth looking into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
