TIME INTERVAL EDITING

You can select up to four times of day for each special vending period.

NOTE

If two or more of these time periods overlap, the interval with the

highest priority will overrule the other(s). This order of precedence is:

1.INHIBIT

2.FREEVEND

3.DISCOUNT

For example, if a DISCOUNT time period is scheduled for a certain area before the end of an INHIBIT time period, DISCOUNT does not begin until the INHIBIT interval has ended for that area.

The time interval editing procedure is almost the same for the INHIBIT, FREEV- END, and DISCOUNT intervals. There is one difference (Step 3 below) for the DISCOUNT time interval, so we will use it in our example. Assume you just fin- ished the "Set Time-of-Day Discount Vending", PAGE 45 procedure. Step 1 picks up where you left off . . .
