Aims
- redo all internal wiring and logic, except the refrigeration parts
- make the machine more safe by doing things properly and reducing the voltage of exposed components
- keep the software interface as simple or more simple than before
- make the buttons on the front of the machine work for dispense
- make it extensible so things can be added on
- give the machine a general service where necessary (seals, rust protection, oil)

Internal PLC IO Requirements
- 10x24V DC input for can sensing (would it be worth multiplexing this?)
- 7x24V DC input for front door buttons (ditto with the multiplexing question)
- 1x24V DC input for manual dispense mode button
- 10x?110V? relay outputs (this assumes linear actuators return by themselves)
- 7x DC outputs for empty slot display
Process
- empty the machine and bring it into the clubroom. This means everything won't have to be packed up at the end of the day while we're working on it
- remove one of the stacks and test a slot actuator to see what it runs off. This determines what hardware we use to drive everything, so we need to know.
- purchase all required hardware (PLC, wiring, connectors, switches, etc.)
write software (state machine based programming implemented in ladder logic, should be quite trivial)
- wire up on the bench and test
- service the machine. A can of zinc spraypaint wouldn't go astray on some of the rust spots I think. Check all the seals. Oil what needs oiling. Clean what needs cleaning.
- install everything into the machine and test
