6 Customer Access
A customer receives a car wash by entering his unique access code at the customer interface
located at the entrance of the car wash. The customer interface includes a metal numeric
keypad, coin and bill acceptor interfaces (coin/bill activation and change making is optional) and
customer display.
To receive a wash, the customer enters his unique car wash code on the numeric keypad. The
"0" that is the last character of every code is used as an enter key. When the code is completely
entered and it is determined that the code is not an account number, that code is shown on the
main console display in the lower right corner. If the code is valid, the wash type is
simultaneously issued and shown on the lower line of the main console display. The issued
wash types are identified on the display as P1, P2..., G1, G2... and O1, O2... for program 1,
program 2 ..., group 1, group 2 ..., option 1, option 2 ... respectively.
If the code is invalid, a buzzer will sound at the main console and at the customer interface. The
number of invalid codes (since the last valid code) will be shown on the lower line of the main
console display. The number of sequential invalid codes can be used to alert the cashier of
tampering at the entrance console. Additionally, the "re-enter code" relay will be turned on briefly
to control a customer guidance light.
If the car wash is in-use when a valid code is entered, a "Code Accepted/Please Wait" relay is
activated at the interface. This relay remains on until the wash is available.
6.1 Cash Upgrades (Buy ups) at the Carwash Entrance
Important:
POS4000 features that are not available on your particular carwash equipment should
be disabled in order for the entry system upgrades to be sold correctly.
As an optional feature, the POS4000 can be configured to allow customers to purchase a wash
or upgrade from a valid code by depositing cash at the entrance of the wash. This capability
requires a quarter acceptor and/or a bill acceptor be installed at the customer interface and
requires the buy up mode to be enabled. The current buy up mode is included in the System
Configuration Report.
Note: Buy up mode is not configurable for Hamilton Autotec systems.
If a customer deposits more money than is required, the extra money is escrowed for additional
purchases by that customer until they enter the wash. If escrowed money remains when the
customer enters the wash, an overpayment statement is printed at the main console. This
statement includes:
• Customer code or cash only notice
• Current date and time
• Features selected and cost
