Can you reconfigure it yourself ?

EJ,
I've done some minor tinkering with the machine. I've added and moved pushers and even upped the voltage on one of the conveyor motors. So far, I have not had to call Vendrite for advice or help but I've not done a total channel reconfiguration yet either.
I recently had a problem with my 24 oz Mr Dew bottles not moving forward when that selection was made. I quickly discovered that the conveyor assembly was not centered in the channel on the front end. I fixed that and then discovered that the conveyor was not centered within the conveyor assembly. The conveyor was not fully on its rear sprocket so I just pushed it all the way on and that channel is now working perfectly again.
The Vision vender has no less than 5 circuit boards (partly why it's an expensive vender) and has steel trays rather than plastic like most glass front venders. I really like how the condenser coil is right up front so it's easy to see if it's getting dusty. The sure-vend sensor system in the elevators is still somewhat of a mystery to me but, as long as it's working, I'm happy.
