Post by: on October 21, 2006, 09:10:34 pm
Hi guys I'm very new to this so I was hoping you guys could help me. I have just got given this new coke machine it is a vendo V312, with a cashflow 540 coin dispenser. I have read the topis on how to set up a free dispense and stuff, but I mainly need to know how to amount charged currently $1.20 (australian dollars) and I want to change it to $1. I have attacted some photoes there is five buttons labeled A,B,C,D and a yellow I think you might use these but really unsure?? Any help would be greatly appreaciated.
Thanks and cheers Vossy

You should contact support at Mars Electronics (http://www.meiglobal.com) and ask if they can help.

I am pretty sure this would be a digital, multiprice mech in which case the machine itself controls the price and communicates with the mech.

Just in case anyone else need to know it is done by

To set the price on the Cashflow 540 :-
Press  the Yellow button
Press the C Button
Insert the value of the new price into the coin mechanism (ie if you want to set to $1.40, insert 1 x $1 coin  and 2 x 20c coin)
Press the C button

I am trying to post some pics of it but am have a little bit of difficulty. Will get them on soon.

Hey Rogerz,
To answer you question a 20c piece is well 5 of the make a  dollar. Basiclly our money works like 100 cents make a dollar and our coins are
5, 10 , 20 and 50 cent pieces and $1 and $2 dollar coins, I hope that answers your question, by the way is there anyone else on this from Oz as I am tring to find some older machines to buy here but I haven't seen any around, any help??
