How to purchase the right Inlet Kit
Different models require different needs for inlet kits. This is a guide on how to determine which equipment is the one for you:
Important note: If the production number of your machine begins with P13_ or lower, you may also need to buy additional parts to be able to install the inlet kit. Please contact support for advice on what extra parts you need for your machine before buying an inlet ket. Machines numbered P10_ and below cannot be upgraded.
1.PART: Make sure you have the latest firmware
You can find information about the latest version of the firmware here. Your machine should have automatically updated to the latest firmware when it is connected to the internet.
To check if your machine is up to date, go into the MACHINE SETUP menu on the touchscreen - and check the version number is the same as the latest firmware update (at the time of writing, that is 20.2.0).
If your roaster did not update itself to v20.2.0 before 13 December 2023, then we need to manually push an update to your machine: please fill out the form here for assistance.
2.PART: DO YOU NEED A NEW PCB?
Some roasters might need a new PCB to use the Inlet sensor.
How to determine if you need a new PCB:
1. Go to SERVICE MENU (how to find hidden SERVICE MENU)
2. Press on DEBUG HARDWARE
3. Look up line “TC1 CHIP (INLET): …”
- TC1 CHIP (INLET): INSTALLED - no need for new PCB
- TC1 CHIP (INLET): NOT INSTALLED - you need a new PCB
How to install an Inlet sensor
Before purchasing an Inlet sensor, please check the manual and watch the video to determine if you or your technician can handle the instructions and safely install the sensor.
If you prefer, you can also send the machine to us to install the sensor for you. Please contact support if you want to arrange this.
Different inlet kits and pricing
If you want to install the inlet kit yourself, you can order it on the webshop here. There are three options:
Inlet kit without new PCB: If the TC1 chip installed on your PCB, you do not need a new PCB
Inlet kit with a new PCB: If the TC1 chip is not installed on your PCB, we can send you a new PCB along with your inlet kit
Inlet kit with a fixed PCB: Instead of purchasing a new PCB, you can have the missing chip installed on your current PCB. Send the PCB to us, we will install the chip for you and return it along with the inlet kit for you to install.
If you would prefer us to install the inlet kit for you, then please contact support for pricing and availability.
