Title: Time delay Post by: sitano on October 16, 2008, 03:12:57 am I've been trying to get my Cavalier machine up & running. I think I may have a "Time Delay" board issue.
I have seen mention about a article that Johnie G wrote on time delay, but I couldn't find it by searching the forums. If anyone has these could you send them to me or re-post them. Here is a pix of my relay & time delay board. You can see the relay on the right, the time delay board (4 marked terminals) and a large capacitor located below. Trying to solve this mystery on my own.... Steve ps... is this in the right forum???

Title: Re: Time delay Post by: sitano on October 16, 2008, 03:52:50 pm I'm trying to test the vend system by using your kool free vend switch. But when I hooked it up, pushed the switch, the light above the coin chute lite up, then I tried selection button 5, one can delivered, there were big sparks (120v short?) in the neighborhood of the vending servo & Well I won't be trying that button again.
When I tried the free vend switch again, I could hear the relay click, and the light above the coin chute would only stay on while holding the FV button down. Nothing happens when I tried any of the other selection buttons.... even holding the FV switch down, nothing. So I have some not so obvious short, so I thought I'd start with the Time Delay, then work my way towards the vending servos. I don't know how to check the time delay diode or capacitor. Thanx for stepping up to help. I really appreciated it. Steve |
