HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
Appearance
The GASBOY Series 1000 Fuel Management System is totally self-contained in
an attractive, weatherized cabinet and pedestal assembly. The system is
Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL) and FCC listed and is designed to be located on
the fueling island convenient to the user. The system has the same basic design,
however, the head differs for each system type and the pedestal dimensions are
different when used with the receipt printer option. System dimensions are given
in Section 5.
Head
The cabinet head measures approximately 15"W x 12"H x 20"D and is mounted
on top of a 48" high pedestal. The cabinet face is protected from the weather by
a clear acrylic shield. A combination of side extensions and top overhang
reduces sun glare, and a fluorescent light provides lighting for around-the-clock
user operation. The following drawing shows the three possible head types:
Display
Visual prompting messages, displayed on an eye-level, 20-character liquid crystal
display (LCD), guide the user through the steps required to operate the system.
A list of operating instructions is also printed on the cabinet face for reference.
Keypad
A 12-position membrane keypad, containing the keys 0-9, CLEAR, and ENTER, is
provided on the center of the face for entering data (e.g., personal identification
number (PIN), odometer readings, pump selections, etc.). All entries, except PIN,
are displayed on the LCD for verification.
Reader
The card-activated system is available with a magnetic stripe insertion reader or
an optional optical card reader. The FleetKey system is equipped with one or two
key receptacles.
Emergency Stop
A red stop button on the cabinet face allows the dispensing equipment to be shut
down quickly in case of emergency.
Service Access
The rear of the cabinet is a hinged door secured with a lock to prohibit
unauthorized access. The one piece hood can be removed for total accessibility
for servicing. Servicing is facilitated by interior LED indicators which help
diagnose system problems.
