Purpose

This article outlines the process of hooking up the cameras inside of the Add-On Ambient Vision Cabinet to the PicoCooler Vision, for the two to work in a side-by-side configuration.

In this article you will:

• Setup the PicoCooler Vision with the Add-On Ambient Vision cabinet.
• Perform a test transaction, and test the locking functionality of the cabinet.
  
   

Process

 For any questions regarding PicoCooler Vision, please reference the article PicoCooler Vision - Operator Guide.

The Add-On Ambient Vision cabinet must be deployed to a location by 365 before it is operational. There is a QR code that is included in the package that links to the 365 Vision Smart Store Deployment Request form, which will need to be filled out.

For any questions regarding retrofitting the Add-On Ambient Cabinet with the loose bridge cable, please reference the article: Add-On Ambient Vision Cabinet - Retrofit Guide.
 

Setup

1. Power off the primary PicoCooler Vision unit (Primary unit has the Pico Device).
    
2. Remove the back technology cover with a Philips head screwdriver; carefully place the cover on top of the PicoCooler Vision unit. 
   (The OptConnect antenna cables are attached to the cover and should not be disconnected.)
    
3. Move the Add-On Ambient Standard or Wide body cabinet to the left of the primary unit.
   
   
4. Connect the bridge cable on the back of the Add-On Ambient unit into the female 8-pin connector, found on the back of the primary unit. 
   When standing behind the primary unit, the female 8-pin connector will be located on the bottom right.
   
   
5. Take the 4 camera cables from the the Add-On Ambient unit, and connect them to the back of the PC in the USB 2.0 Motherboard Ports.
   
   
6. Bundle the camera cables from the Add-On Ambient unit, and secure them depending on which bracket is installed:

   1. Bracket Without Side Cable Openings- Secure the camera cables to the power cable. 
      This will assist with keeping the cables together and allow easy re-attachment of the technology cover.

      
   2. New Bracket With Camera Cable Openings - Place the Add-On Camera wires into the opening, and re-attach the technology bracket to the side of the PicoCooler Vision.
      
      

Starting Up after Installation

Important: Since the unit was unplugged, the PicoCooler Vision will need to go through the initial startup process.

1. Plug the power cables back in and allow the store 4-6 minutes to boot up.
    
2. After Startup completes an error saying “Cooler Safety checks have failed” will appear.
    
3. Use the controller a the bottom of the PicoCooler Vision to clear the error by holding the down arrow button for 5 seconds. 
   Three lines will appear “---” when the error has been cleared. For additional support regarding clearing this error please reference the article, Due North (Minus Forty) - Unlocking Coolers using the Temperature Controller.
    

Testing

1. Check that both PicoCooler Vision and new Add-On Ambient Cabinet lock lights are blinking. (One light will be green, and the other will be red.) 
   This confirms the locks are active and working. If these lights are not both on, something has been wired incorrectly.
   
   
2. Run a transaction and wait for the doors to open.
    
3. Open both the PicoCooler Vision door and the Add-On Ambient cabinet door.
    
4. Close the PicoCooler Vision door while keeping the Add-On Ambient Cabinet open. 
   The cooler door should not lock; if it does, there is a wiring issue.
    
5. Close the Add-On Ambient and open the Cooler door, to confirm the Ambient door does not lock when the Cooler door is open. 
   The Ambient door should not lock; if it does, there is a wiring issue.
    
6. Close both doors; the locks should activate. The Add-On Ambient and PicoCooler Vision are now ready for use.
