There are a range of issues your machine might experience, many of which you can take care of yourself. In this video we will explore them! When your dispenser is displaying all the different lights, you need to verify what is happening. To verify what’s going on, you would need to lift the door up and look at the LCD screen to see what the error message is. So, to verify the different error messages, you have to lift the door and then go to the screen. Also note that the error message is displayed at the bottom of the screen. If you have a CO2 out, water out, or syrup out and you verify the supply is still there, please call your service technician to troubleshoot the machine.

(upbeat music) - When your dispenser is displaying all the different lights as you see in this case right here, you need to verify what is happening. To verify what's going on, you would need to lift the door up and look at the LCD screen to see what the error message is. The light right here telling you not ready is just simply telling you that either the machine is still in freeze mode or it's out of product. The next one right here, defrost is simply telling you that this barrel is in defrost mode. At this point, you should not dispense any product from this barrel. If you do so, that could cause voids in the barrel, after the different cycle and then the product consistency wouldn't be good. The next message right here says ready to serve. This will turn green when the product in the barrel is ready to serve. Right here, product out blinking that tells me that the syrup is out. But if you see that same light blinking all the way across on all the three bars that tells me that something that it's common to the machine like CO2 or water is out. So, to verify the different error messages, you have to lift the door and then go to the screen. You can see clearly here that CO2 is out on all the barrels. So that tells me that you have to go to the backroom and inspect your CO2 supply to the machine. The CO2 is either low or needs replacement. Also note that the error message is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Here it says low CO2 check CO2 tank gauge. So in a case where water was out, that will also affect all the barrels because there's just one water supply to the machine. On the other hand, if it was just a syrup out, that will be displayed against the barrels affected. If you have a CO2 out, water out, or syrup out and you verify the supply is still there, please call your service technician to troubleshoot the machine.

How Bose Professional's 3.5 kg MA3 aims sound away from echoey ceilings

How Bose Professional's 3.5 kg MA3 aims sound away from echoey ceilings

Bose Professional launched the MA3 Micro Array, a passive modular speaker whose 3.5 kg boxes are angled to keep sound off echoey ceilings. Coverage control moves into the integrator's design. Splay angles, amplifier choice and a recommended 70 Hz high-pass filter decide results in houses of worship, classrooms and corporate rooms.

  • 01Each MA3 module covers just 5° vertically, so the angles set between boxes become the main control for keeping sound off reflective ceilings in reverberant rooms.
  • 02For a head-to-head spec review, ask for high-frequency vertical off-axis data: the MA3 and Martin Audio O-Line share 100° × 5° nominal coverage but use very different tweeter designs.

NTT DATA’s MRaaS spans design, support and recycling across the room lifecycle

NTT DATA’s MRaaS spans design, support and recycling across the room lifecycle

NTT DATA's Meeting Room as a Service brings room design, procurement, monitoring, support, refresh and recycling together under one model. Its Aon project in Brazil tripled videoconferencing capacity and lifted client meetings 50% over two years.

  • 01When a room fails, people tend to move rather than report it, so service desk tickets often miss the rooms that are actually broken. Centralized monitoring targets that gap.
  • 02Aon’s Brazil project tripled videoconferencing capacity and raised client meetings 50% over two years. It’s a vendor-reported reference point buyers can use when asking providers for comparable results.
  • 03The case for one lifecycle contract is strongest where each country picked its own vendors and integrators. A company that only needs utilization data can buy room analytics software without handing over the whole lifecycle.

AVIXA hands the CEO job to Informa tech events chief Marco Pardi

AVIXA hands the CEO job to Informa tech events chief Marco Pardi

AVIXA named Marco Pardi, President of the Tech Events portfolio at Informa, as CEO starting January 1, 2027. He succeeds David Labuskes. Pardi's background running IT shows suggests AV's overlap with IT will keep getting attention, though AVIXA has not committed to that. Watch AVIXA's 2027 show calendar and course catalog.

  • 01AVIXA's events and learning audiences overlap with incoming CEO Marco Pardi's experience; audience counts alone do not explain the board's priorities.
  • 02One read on the hire is whether IT-crossover training like Glass to Glass expands under Pardi.
