Abstract

Vending machine control and diagnostic apparatus for a vending apparatus having product delivery means (10) comprising an electrically operated actuator (A1) for delivery of products, an impedance element (R1) and a circuit opening switch (S1). The impedance element and the switch are connected electrically in series with each other and in a parallel circuit with the actuator, and the opening and closing of the switch is controlled by the operation of the actuator. The control and diagnostic epparatus has a detector (30) for detecting changes in impedance of the parallel circuit so as to indicate the position and/or condition of the actuator.
