Vending Change by Using the Keyboard or Emptying the Tube Cassette
Coins can be either vended from the change tubes individually if a coin acceptance test is desired, or consecutively when the tubes need to be com- pletely emptied (e.g., before transit, for repairs, or in case of an inventory).
Membrane inventory keys 
, 
, 
and 
apply to the "left", "middle left", "middle right", and "right" coin tubes respectively.
If the Coin Changer is configured so the inventory keys are disabled, these membrane keys will not be active. The device is either configured so the keyboard can be enabled by the Vending Machine’s control system, or so the keyboard must be initially activated by one of the various configuration tools (see section 11 "Configuration").
To vend tube coins individually, simply press the corresponding 
, 
, 
and 
key. One coin will pay out each time the specific key is pressed.
To vend several tube coins:
1.Hold down the desired 
, 
, 
or 
mem- brane key for approximately five seconds. The corresponding tube will automatically empty without having to press the respective key again.
2.Now, press any other key.
The coins will stop dispensing if not already completely emptied.
If the Coin Changer is configured so the inventory keys are disabled, these membrane keys will not be active. The device is either configured so the keyboard can be enabled by the Vending Machine’s control system, or so the keyboard must be initially activated by one of the various configuration tools (see section 11 "Configuration").
Emptying the Change Tubes to a Certain Fill Level
If a “float” level is configured, the change tubes can be emptied to the tube counter’s set float level value.
Emptying the change tubes to the set float level:
1.Press the Plus 
key.
An audible signal will sound and the Green LED will begin flashing indicating that the Coin Changer is no longer in a standard oper- ating mode and has now entered the filling level mode.
2.Hold down any key, for approximately five seconds (the Green LED illuminates).
All tubes will automatically empty to the preconfigured float level. Afterwards, two audible signals will sound and the Green LED will light constantly indicating that the Coin Changer is no longer in the filling level mode, and has returned to the operating mode.
Validator Change Filling
After an inventory or repair the tube cassette’s four change tubes can be refilled with relevant coin types through the Coin Validator using the key- board.
In many cases the Vending Machine’s controls will offer a filling function. In this case they should be used, because the control unit might not accept the filling level capacity of the Coin Changer.
If the Cash Box contains coins, it must be emptied, otherwise new coins directed to the Cash Box will not be counted.
