 * Enter the number of the drink or snack you want
 * Collect it out of the machine

=== Using dispense web ===
Dispense web can only be used to purchase drinks, as there is currently no system in place to determine if there are snacks in the vending machine to dispense.
 * Log into dispense web at http://dispense.ucc.asn.au/

 * Select a drink to purchase

 * Collect it out of the machine

=== Using the command line ===
Similar to dispense web, `dispense` can only dispense drinks due to know knowing what snack stock levels are at.
 * Open up an [[SSH]] session to one of UCC's user servers
 * run "dispense"

 * Select a drink
 * Collect it from the coke machine

== Enrolling a card for login ==
The easiest way to log into the machine to buy drinks and snacks is to enrol a card. This card can be any sort of [[MIFARE]] compatible card. To do this, log into the machine using your User ID and Pin as outlined above, then hold your card above the card reader. You will get a message saying "Card Enrolled". You can now use this card instead of your User ID and Pin to log in.

== Adding money to your account ==
Money can be added to your dispense account by talking to one of UCC's door members.

 * Grab a numbered bag from next to the safe in the corner of the clubroom
 * Find someone who is on door. If you are in the clubroom, there will be someone from this group present
 * Let them know that you would like to add money to your account, along with the bag number and the amount you want added
 * They will verify this amount, run the command to add it to your account and take the bag (and money) from you
 * You now have more money on your dispense account
