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
- 10x100V AC relay outputs
- 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
Wiring it up
- Terminal Blocks
- End clamp
- End cap
- 6 for 24V power positive and negative (4 red, 4 black) - 2 PLC, 2 fans, 2 expansion board
- Partition
- 20 for slot microswitches (10 red, 10 black)
- Partition
- 20 for slot solenoids (10 brown, 10 blue)
- Partition
- 8 for 110V distribution (4 brown, 4 blue) - 2 for relay board, 1 for 24V supply input, 1 for 5V supply input
- Partition

- 8 (7 plus one spare)
- Din rail
- 2m
- Slotted duct 3 metres
Total Order:
- 14 red
- 14 black
- 14 brown
- 14 blue
- 3 green/yellow
- 2 end caps
- 2 end clamps
- 4 partitions
- 8 shorting links
- 2m din rail
- 1 Label set numbers 1 to 50

- Panduit CFPHS2IW Faceplate or similar
- Panduit Cat 6 Mech and cable
Measured things
- Can drop process: 400ms on, 500ms off, 660ms on, 300VAC peak-to-peak, 1.8A
- Wire lengths:
- Actuator units 0,1,2,3: 80cm actuator to wire harness, 210cm harness to corner of machine door, 40cm up door, 45cm across, 40cm up to terminal block (4-core minimum) (16.6m)
- Actuator units 4,5: 80cm actuator to wire harness, 170cm harness to corner of machine door, 40cm up door, 45cm across, 40cm up to terminal block (4-core minimum) (7.5m)
- Actuator units 6,7,8,9: 80cm actuator to wire harness, 140cm harness to corner of machine door, 40cm up door, 45cm across, 40cm up to terminal block (4-core minimum) (13.8m)
- Buttons: 75cm across front of door, 60cm down edge of door, 45cm across, 40cm up to terminal block (8-core minimum) (2.2m)
- Lights: 75cm across front of door, 60cm down edge of door, 45cm across, 40cm up to terminal block (8-core minimum) (2.2m)
- The fans suck air through the fridge unit, they don't blow it
- Plug coming from the back of the distrubution box (red 9 way):
- Brown/White 110V
- Blue/White Neutral
- Red/White 100V
Extra Things To Consider
- Snubber circuit for solenoids
- RC snubber component/circuit with 0.1uF (approx 400V rating) and 150 Ohm resistance in parallel with the load should do
- Need to test this on a breadboard before looking for a permanent way of implementing it
Stuff to fix in future
- The crimps on the fan loom where two wires go into a crimp should be replaced with the bigger blue crimps instead of the small red ones (you'll need 2 blue female 4.8mm and two male 4.8mm)
- The 5x1mm washers acting as spacers for the bottom refigeration fans should be replaced with a 5mm spacer or piece of pipe instead - the washers will be impossible to put back on if the fans ever need to be removed
