VendnetUSA 4215155B
Satellite Motor Count Procedure
This procedure verifies that the main control unit correctly recognizes every individual motor connected to the satellite vending section.
Qualified technician handoff: stop before live electrical testing, sealed-system refrigeration work, compressor service, or protected-compartment access unless a qualified technician is handling the work.
- Burning smell detected at any point: Stop immediately. Disconnect power. Escalate to qualified electrical technician.
- Host controller displays undocumented error code: Stop procedure. Document error code. Contact manufacturer support.
- If the motor count procedure does not produce correct results after harness inspection, escalate to a qualified technician or manufacturer support.
