Elevator Stuck at Bottom (Delivery Position)

The elevator is at the lower delivery position and will not return to home. This flow checks for obstructions preventing upward travel, sensor state, motor function in reverse direction, and controller return command.

    Complete Test Vend Cycle

    technician-advancedtechnician

    After any clearance or adjustment, run at least three complete test vend cycles. Each cycle should include: product dispensing into elevator bucket, elevator descent to delivery position, elevator door opening (if applicable), simulated product retrieval, elevator door closing (if applicable), and elevator return to home position. Observe for smooth, quiet operation throughout.

    Expected: All three test vend cycles complete successfully without error codes, unusual noise, or hesitation.
