How to set Energy Saver Mode in a Signature Countertop

Countertop 1.5 Signature Countertop 2.0
Updated

Energy Saver Mode for the Signature Countertop reduces energy consumption by disabling Chilled and Sparkling water dispensing during scheduled hours, while Ambient filtered water and flavors remain available at all times. When Energy Saver Mode is active, users are notified onscreen and can choose to pour an ambient drink, or temporarily deactivate the mode for the rest of the day.

This feature helps conserve energy during periods of low demand, such as overnight or on weekends. Technicians can configure Energy Saver Mode during installation, and can adjust the schedule at any time using the onscreen Service Panel or remotely via The Well.

What Happens During Energy Saver Mode

When Energy Saver Mode is active, the machine displays a screen indicating it is saving energy (shown above). The screen dims, and the nozzle LEDs pulse blue at a lower brightness. Chilled and Sparkling water dispense options are disabled and greyed out. Ambient filtered water and flavors remain available at all times.

Users can:

  • Press the “Pour ambient” button to dispense ambient filtered water or flavored drinks.
  • Press the “Deactivate today” button to temporarily disable Energy Saver Mode for the rest of the day, which turns the chiller back on.

Timeline of the Energy Saver Sequence

  • 3 hours before Energy Saver Mode starts: The ice bank gradually starts to be used up. Drinks remain cold.
  • At the set start time: The "Saving Energy" screensaver and options appear, the screen is dimmed, and the nozzle LEDs are dimmed and pulse blue. The chiller turns off.
  • 1.5 hours before the set end time: The chiller turns back on.
  • When Energy Saver Mode ends: The machine returns to normal operation with standard screensaver, full dispense options, and regular screen and nozzle LED brightness.

How to Set Up or Edit Energy Saver Mode

On Signature Countertop machines, Energy Saver hours and options are set during the initial installation wizard, and can be changed at any other time and for existing units either onscreen (in Service Panel), or remotely by using The Well. The Energy Saver options are the same no matter how they are accessed.

During Installation: A dedicated Energy Saver Mode step appears during the Signature Countertop install wizard. Select the Edit button to confirm or change the settings.

Using the Service Panel (on machine): Tap the gear icon in the top left screen corner, select Start Service, and enter PIN. From the Service Panel, select Settings, scroll down to the Preferences section, and tap Energy Saver Mode.

Remotely via The Well: On an installed machine's Unit page in The Well, scroll down to the Unit Settings panel and locate Energy Saver Hours in the Preferences box. Click the Edit icon (box with pencil) to access.
